said to him reprovingly. "One might
suppose you didn't expect to come

Another OF the victims reported killed
is A. d. Petit, chief rieger with the
naval rating OF non-commissioned Of

had completed her preparations and was
eagerly looking forward to the family

An American naval attache will be
present at the British court Of inquiry
which will convene Saturday TO in
vestigate the ZR-2 disaster. As rep
resentative of the Admiral in COM
mand Of American ships in European
waters. the naval attache also Will
hold his own court OF inquiry in ac-
cordance with Navy regulations. But
1t is frankly admitted that with Lieut..
Pritchard Brig. Gen. F.. NJ. Maitland,
Col. Campbell and other experts
among the killed, little Is likely to de-
velop beyond what the special corre-
spondent of THE NEW YORK HERALD,
a former pilot Lieutenant in the A.
E. r.. telegraphed from Hull to-day
and which appears in another column.
British newspapers are demanding
that the inquiry be public one ana
this may be done. The American IN
ouiry will be merely routine. as the
American position is that II IS en-
tirely a British matter. Experts mere
are already satisfied that the disaster
was caused by the rupture OF the tehlh
frame from the bow Of the fourteen
main frames. 1t was only supsioiai9
member OF the fifth frame which broke
before during a trial fight.
THE reason the entire framing hau
NOT been strengthened was because VI

out that there may have been SUI

was travelling, and that sharp Jan-
ming Of the rudder one way with the

might easily have caused the smash.

Yesterday, arrived In London to-day anu

which ought to have been the last TO
break, and they are inclined to believe
that the airship broke with the ends
down and tho middle up.
This doubt Is expressed by the Air
Ministrys official announcement after
an inquiry tonight, requesting any one
who had photographed the airship in
the air TO turn the prints over to the
Ministry. Phipson had a camera in his

that he did not use it until the ship had

LONDON, Aug. 25.-All hope has been
abandoned that there are other surviv-
ors Of the zR-2 catastrophe than Nor
man o. Walker. an American rigger. and
Flight Lieutenant A. II. Wann, the COM
mander OF the aircraft, and three other
British members OF the crew.
The disaster has stirred the British
public as no event had since the world
war, when reports of reverses to allied
arms were received or air raids by the
Germans chronicled All classes, from
royalty downward. hastened to express
sympathy for the victims, both British
and American.
1t is presumed that a number Of tho
officers and men of the crew OF the i'll

gondolas by the explosion and met death
there. They are believed to have been
resting in the gondolas at the time OF
the disaster, as they had an engage
ment 10 attend dance in Hull arranged
in their honor Wednesday night. This
was to have been in the nature of a
farewell gathering in honor of the
Americans.
The report that the body of Com
rlander Louis II. Maxflcld. L. S. N, had
been found, turned out to be inaccurate.
Many messages OF sympathy lnclud-
ing one from King George, have been
received at the Air Ministry.
From such disasters as this" said
the London Times, "all human enter
prises have risen more fully equipped
for success, and 1t will be so with the
airship."
Lord Lee Of Fareham, First Lord of
the Admiralty, this morning telephoned
Commander Harry L. Pence, Naval At
tache at the American Embassy, ex-
pressing his regret at the loss of Aneri-
can lives in the airship disaster. He
extended. on behalf OF himself and the
