corcing to telegram received at the
naval air station here tonight.
The Asses left here shortly after noon
Monday, Dec. IS. No definite destina-
ton was planned but the prevailing
northwest wind indicated a landing
somewhere in Canada. With the excep-
ton OF report that the balloon was
seen passing over Wells, y. Y, late
that same night. no definite word was
received here Of the progress of the
