Colonel Crocco Insists Disaster
Vas Due to Charge, Causing
Ororheoting Of Ne,o Engines
al cable to The Tribune

Special C0b}c to The Tribune
(Ccpyrght, 1872. New York Tribune Iuc)
ROME, Feb. 23.-Colonel Crocco, dc
signer of the Roma, the aIrship which
came to such a disastrous end in
America, discussed the accident with a
Tribune representative to-day From
the details ! have received from the
Italian Embassy at Washington" he
said. 81 feel sure that the disaster was
due to a change in the motors.
American airmen, like miners ac-
customed to handling dynamite, forgot
the delicate. combustible quality of
gasoline and hydrogen in an effort to
improve the speed of the diriglole. The
American technical experts installed
electric coils around the engines, and
in my opinion this overheated the en-
gincs, causing internal fire. All acci-
dents to Zeppelins have been due to the
enormous combus stibility of gasoline,
and not to the combustion of hydrogen.
Evidently a short circuit caused this.
vi base my surmise on the report
that the smoke showed the engines
afire first. The rumor that the airship's
rudder was damaged and therefore be-
came unmanageable is impossible. as
there were six fixed rudders and one
movable propeller Any defect of one
would have been cancelled by the
others. Besides, this defect would have
been demonstrated in the first or sec
ond trial. Even if the engines were
put out Of action the planes were so
constructed as to insure the stability
of the ship.
NATURALLY, it is not known whether
the airship was as perfectly balanced
with new high-speed motors as when
the Italian government delivered it to
the United States. 1t is irrefuta Bile
that with the high speed of sixty miles
an hour the engines must have become
over heated. The airsnip mad given such
splendid results that the United States
government desired to buy larger
semi-rigid ship now under construction
, here"
Colonel Crocco is now at work on
plans for a motor that Will use a new
gas with which accidents OF the kind
that destroyed the Roma Will be I'M

Up and down the street are brightly

opened and hlled with money. Gill
mans watch and Wallet were in his
pockets. The wound was onc which
must have caused instant death. No
weapon WAS found.
Gerald Sattcry of Bergen Street,
and Abraham Malof. Of lS5 Amity

entered the store to make purchases.
For few minutes they waited
patiently, believing that Gilman was
making up prescription and would
appear III moment Minutes passed
and no ono appeared.
The two men tapped on glass show

counter and entered the prescription
room behind the store. The druggist
was sprawIed out on the floor. His at
titude and thn red-stained bit Of carpet
on which he lay were evidence enough
for the two men that he WAS dead.
They called a policeman, who got an
ambulance. 1t was about 1880 then.
Dr. Morello, of Cumberland Street Hos
pital, who came with the ambulance,
said that Gilman probably had not
been dead much more than half an
hour

learned that Gilman had taken charge

Gillman's partner, Louis Glass. who

stolen. The two have operated the
store for about eighteen months Be

Roma Called ''Patched
Like q Crazy Quilt
Special Dispatch to The Tribune


NORFOLK,Na., eb. 23.-Evidence that
the steering gear of the airship Roma,
which crashed to earth and exploded
at the Army Air Base near this city
Tuesday, was stiff and failed to re-
spond promptly and that there were
patches on the big gas bag was said to
have been presented to-day to the army

ing an inquiry into the cause Of the
disaster. Thirty-four OF the airship's
crew and the passengers sNe carried
we're killed and eight of lhe remaining
eleven men on board We're hurt when
the semi-rigid dirigible, the greatest
in the world, was destroyed.
The board of investigators completed
It's work to-day Its sessions were Sc
cret, but it was said that testimony
given at the inquiry showed the air
ship was not in good condition when it
started on its trip from Langley Field.
Patched Like Crazy Quilt
Two days before the Roma left on
her fatal fight members of her crew
stated to friends that the "big balloon
is rotten' Two Of the men who lost
their lives in the destruction of the
Roma had said to friends "The big
bag is patched like a crazy quilt"
There were four patches in the gas
bag, it is said. One of these patches
was almost directly over the nose of
the Roma, which was the first part Of
the airship to double up when she
started on her death drop toward the
earth after her rudder refused to work.
Lieutenant Colonel 4. S. Fisher, com
manding officer of Langley Field, re-
fused to day to comment on reports that
the Roma was in poor condition for a
flight. He also said he did not believe
Lieutenant Smythe made the statement
attributed to him in published reports
from Chicago to the effect that the
Roma was unsafe. He declared the
Roma would not have been permitted
to chop off, from Langley Field if the
officers were not satisfied that she was
in good condition.
''The Roma, in my opinion, was in
better condition on Tuesday than she
was when she made a flight to Wash

Wall ST. Cashier Held
In $4,000 Shortage
Richard Kretxner Charged
With Grand Larceny by Alex
andcr & Baldwin. Lid.

Richard Kretzner, cashier for Alex
andcr & Baldwin, Ltd. of 50 Wall
Street, was locked up at Police Head
quarters last night charged with grand
larceny by his employers. According
to Detective Mccoy, who arrested him,
the firm has discovered shortages ag-
Gregating Sl19,000, for which it be-
lieves kretzner to be responsible.
The entry opposite Krctzner's name
on the blottcr at Headquarters sets
forth that he is accused of issuing
checks aggregating $685. 900 between
January 80 and February against
trade acceptances which were worth
less. Mccoy said that shortages
amounting to $4,000 had been dis
covered on the books OF the firm in
entries prior to January 80.
According to Mccoy, Kretzner, as
cashier, was authorized to issue checks
for the firm. The checks figuring in
the charges against him are alleged tc
have been issued to confederates who
presented trade acceptances which were
WORTHLESS and cashed the checks which
they received.
Kretzner is thirty years old and lives
at 1000 Myrtle Avenue, Richmond Hill
Queens. He is married and has two
children. 1t was at his home that he
was arrested. Mccoy found the house

At WIite House Gates

From The Tribillc'S Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Feb 23-Announce-
ment at the White House to-day Of the
postponement of the army-navy recep-
ton tonight because Of the Roma dis
aster came too late 20 prevent numbers
Of people going to the White House.
OF the 1000 persons invited, White
House officials estimated that hardly
one-half that number knew the recep-
ton had been postponed until April 19.
There was no other method than an
nouncement in the local papers, owing
to lack of time.
At the White House tonight the
policemen guarding the approaches
were busy turning back scores of per
sons from out of the city who arrived
to-day to attend the reception. In a
statement the President said:
ION account of the deplorable loss of
life in the Roma accident the army and
navy reception to have been given at
the White House tonight has been
postponed to Wednesday, April 10.
President and Mrs. Harding feel that
reception to the army and navy at
time when there is such deep grief
over the bereavement attending the ex-
ploson of the Roma would not be in ac-
cord with the feeling of themselves or
their invited guests. 1t is mpossi Bile
to give other than newspaper notice of
the poStpOnement."
