The balloon, America, in which Wellman and party set out upon their perilous flight today, met with a mishap after it had proceeded 32 miles from the starting point. All succeeded in landing without injury to anyone, and returned to this point on board the steamer Fram, which also towed in the disabled balloon. Wellman decided early 'at the morning to make the start, and 10 o'clock the airship was brought out of its shed and the explorers took their places. When the anchors were cast loose, the airship ascended beautifully, the engines were set in motion and everything seemed to work to perfection. The craft was manoeuvered for some time, and answered the helm perfectly.

Then its head was turned northward and it set out at a speed of 25 miles an hour. Provisions Are Cut Loose. Suddenly, after having covered 32 miles and when everything seemed to be going splendidly, the leather guide rope, to which was attached 1,000 pounds of provisions and stores, broke away. The accident occurred just as the airship was nearing a pack of ice of North Spitbergen. Released from this weight, the airship shot upward at a terrific pace until it was above the clouds.

The pilots succeeded, however, in bringing her down near the earth, turned her about and set out to fight their way southward against a strong wind. The airship proceeded slowly southward to the edge a pack of ice where the steamer Fram was anchored. After much difficulty, a rope was gotten aboard the Fram, which started immediately to tow the airship to Spitzbergen. The strain was so great, however, it threatened to tear the car to which the rope was attached to pieces and Wellman finally decided to bring the airship down. Crew Is Rescued.

This was effected without mishap and the car rested on the surface of the water until all the crew, dogs and scientific instruments, could be transferred abroad the Fram. A fresh start was then made and the America was towed back to a landing stage and within a short distance of where the start was made. But ill luck of the expedition is not yet at end. Just as the airship had reached the landing stage and everything looked favorable for its rescue without serious damage, a sudden gust of wind caught broadside on, and snatched it away from its tow lines. It was carried careening over rough ice hummocks for some distance and then exploded.

All the scattered parts of the airship were subsequently recovered, but damage is 50 great as to preclude any further attempt to fly over the pole this year. MOULTRIE SULLIVAN PEOPLE ATTEND FUNERAL 764, A. F. A. and relatives and SULLIVAN, Aug.
