 HURT.

San Antonio, Texas.-The dirigible C-2, the United States army's best and largest 'blimp," on a return transcon- tinental flight from Ross field, Cali fOrnia, to Langley field, Virginia, was burned here and seven persons were injured.
 According to Maj. H. A. Strauss, commander of the ill-fated ship, the accident was due primarily to the pulling out of the fabric of the en- velope during a strong wind
 A board of inquiry was appointed by Major Royce, commander of Brooks field, to investigate the accident. The ship, which Major Strauss said was valued at possibly $7O,OOO originally cost the government $270,000.
 The seven men, including five army officers and two newspaper men, who were injured, were reported to be not seriously hurt. None of them suffered broken bones in jumping from the car riage of the balloon after it had struck the end of the giant concrete hangar at Brooks field, which was built Ori- ginally to house the Roma, which blew up over Hampton roads, Feb 21, 1922. 1922.
 The C-2 was preparing to make a flight over the city of San Antonio, primarily for the benefit of newspaper reporters and eight army officers of headquarters Eighth corps area, at Fort Sam Houston It had been pulled out of the hangar about half way, when strong gust of wind, estimated by Major Strauss at not more than fifteen miles velocity, swung the ship around.
 "A strong puff came, dragging the bag along the ground" said Major Strauss written statement regarding the accident. q ordered the ship back into the hangar. Just as we started, another gust came, and the fabric to which the windward handling guy was attached pulled loose, another hand ling guy broke under the sudden pres sure and the third handling guy failed, releasing the bag and permitting it to swing to leeward into the concrete structure at the base of the hangar door. The bag was torn.
 "As the bag became loose the car broke in two places. Thirty seconds after the car broke the hydrogen in the envelope caught fire, due to the hole and rapid influx of air"
