Reveal Some Clews
On Accident.

The Navy Department received
confirmation last evening Of the
finding Of the navy free balloon,
lost March z2, nosfing in the Gulf
of Mexico, with no signs Of its crew
of nve.
The commanding officer at the

Unofficial but apparently au-
thentic information received from

fishing boat Electra, Captain Roy
Baker. and taken to Panama city.
Balloon ana basket reported to be
intact No trace of personnel. Am
sending officer by plane to inVesti-
gate and take possession OF, ball
loon"
Secretary DENLY said it was like
" that the examination of the books
and other evidence on the balloon
might furnish some clew as to what
happened to the missing men. II
is not improbable that the men,
seeing their fate inevitable. may
have left some written record with
the hope that the balloon might be
found.
OmeiaI Investigation Ordered.
Mr.. DENLY has announced that a
board of investigation has been or
dered ito thoroughly inquire into
all the circumstances connected
with the fight and the subsequent
loss of the balloon"
All the circumstances point. how
ever. to a story the mystery OF
which will remain unsolved.
The balloon left Pensacola at
5:55 p. m March % for a night in
struction flight, with the following
personnel: Chief Quartermaster C.
X. Wilkinson, pilot. and Students
r. V. Elend. OF the Navy. and w
II. Trefry, f. l.. Kershaw. and ].
o. Elder privates in the Marine
Corps. Reports of other flights on
the same day showed them to have
been successful.
No definite word having been re-
ceived from the balloon up to March

search with eagle boats, subchas-
ers. a dirigible, and four flying
boats
Heard Voices In swamp
The technical officials at Pensa-

which included the waters of San

had heard voices in the. swamp

LABOR BOARD ED|CT
Rea Writes Company Will Deal
With Its Own Employees With
out Intervention.

Philadelphia, Sept. 26.--In reply to
the United States Railroad Labor
Boards recent order concerning the
pennsylvania Railroads application to
the Board to set aside its decision In
the case OF the Shop Crafts Union.
the company will file with the beard
today statement OF its position
signed by President Rea.
The most important points submit
ted by the company are:
That the board has refused TO grant
a hearing at which the company pro-
posed to give concrete evidence of the
fact that the great majority of its
employees are satisfied with the man
ner of selecting employee representa-
tives and with the rules and working
conditions now in effect.
That the board, on the contrary
has restricted tomorrow's hearing to
matters over which the company
maintains the board has no jurisdic-
ion and has declined to hear any
other evidence.
That the real issue in this case is
the fundamental right of employees
and employees TO deal directly Will
bach other.
/ That the company does not ques
ton the Jurisdiction of the board t.
hear and decide such disputes as fal
within the purview of the Transpor
tation Act. IL does. however. deny tn
right of the board TO invade the do
main of management.
The board referred the company {
it's recent decision, in which the boar
decided that hitherto unquestione
legal rights" must give way to IN
boards view OF what is just. fair an
reasonable as between the parties an
the public.
In reply to this the company says
THE carrier cannot accept thes
views OF the board. novel and eve
startling though they may be. and
followed to their logical conclusio
revolutionary in effect. IL does not be
lieve that the Transportation Act ha
deprived. or was intended by Congress
to deprive. either employers or en-
ployees Of their constitutional an
legal rights as established by the ST
preme Court and other courts of n
, United States.

against 10000 to $4,000 before the
