HOPE MEN ARE SAFE
Navy Authorities Admit Danger, But Still Are Convinced Missing Balloon Men Will Be Found.

New York. Dec. 16.--Expressing concern for the safety .of the three navy pilots who sailed away from Rockaway Beach in free balloon on Monday, the naval air station there today telegfaphed recruiting officers throughout New York state asking that inquiries be made to determine if anyone had seen the balloon or re- ceived carrier pigeons released by the f1iers.
 Although admitting some fears were felt for the safety of the aviators, navy officers today pointed out that the pilots knew what kind of country and weather they would probably en- counter when they left. To make a worth while flight in free balloon wind was necessary, officers stated, and with wind came unfavorable weather. The men were determined, they said. to go as far as possible and might have landed so far north that immediate communication was , inn possible.
