neighbor.

for the Potters Friday night. She

fled to . number Of people having
been at the Potter home during the
evening and that the men were
planning to 60 hunting. Later, she
said, she awoke and Mrs. Potter
came into the room and stopped over
her bed. Later the girl looked UNI
der the bed and found a shotgun.
Still later, she said, Potter's Oldest
son, Henry, and another youth came
into the room, got the gun and, just
outside her door, worked the
mechanism two times. The second
youth she identified by pointing to
Neil Cameron, who was sitting in
the courtroom. Young Cameron
was not put on the stand but later
denied that part of the girls story.

air liner Graf Zeppelin today was
swinging over the midatlantic some
where along the northern steamship
routes.
Although the huge ship apparently
had been forced to abandon . di-
rectly eastern course toward central
Europe in favor Of more northerly
enc which would carry her on the
normal steamship lane from Cape
Race, Newfoundland, to Fastnet, in
southern Ireland, there was every
indication that the passage was be-
ing made much faster than the trip
to the United States, which took Ill
hours and 80 minutes.
In fact, favoring tail winds seemed
to be driving the great ship along
at = fast clip, so that part Of the
time she was averaging 20 miles an
hour and sometimes, German experts
estimated, 100 miles an hour. Every
hope existed that the return voyage
would be made in between 70 and 50
hours and that the Graf Zeppelin
would reach Friedrichshafen, her
home port. some time tomorrow
afternoon.
At 8 o'clock this morning. eastern
standard time, the dirigible had been
out Of Lakshurst, N. j., slightly more
than 80 hours, and German experts
figured that she must have covered
more than one-third Of the 1000 OF

the Greenland administration has re-
ceived a message from the sheriff of
South Greenland stating that an air.
plane, believed to be the Greater Rock
ford manned by Bert Hassell and Park
er Cramer, was sighted Sunday morn
ing along the Southwest Coast of
Greenland.
The message received by the Green
land administration was as follows:
Machine reported absolutely without
doubt from Fislosnaesset The whole
place, as well as Liechtenfels, observed
the machine Sunday morning at 1o:30
coming high from the north-northwest
and descending over Fiskenaesset.
"The crew we're clearly seen looking
over the area through binoculars.
Afterwards the machine turned east
wards. The Greenlanders statement Is
absolutely trustworthy and they de-
scribed the sound of the engine and
gave the national marks on the
machine"
Motor Boats Start Search.
The telegram received from the
sheriff at E:40 pm. added that two
motor boats would be sent out i'm
mediately to resume search for the
missing American airmen in view of
the new information available.
Available aliases do not show a
''FiskenaeSSet" in south Greenland. but
do show town called FiskernaeS close
by community known as LiechtenfelS.

of Greenland and are on the western
coast. The point is approximately 300

The flyers were last definitely heard
from Sunday morning. indicating their
passage over point 75 miles of Cape
Chidley, Labrador. 1t is approximately
500 miles across an arm of the Atlantic
from Cape Chidley to Fiskernaes.
In view of the fact that the plane
was reported as coming from the north
northwest, it would indicate that the
flyers had lost their way at some point
between Mount Evans and Fiskernaes
and had turned southwark along the
Greenland coast. If they continued
their course TO the east they would
have flown across the southern tip Of
Greenland. at that point approximately
275 miles wide.
