BY FALL OF BIG AIRSHIP. 8ixteen Men Injured, Several Probably Fatally. - Oakland, Cal, May 2 .—The great Morrell airship, the largest ever con- structed, collapsed on its trial trip when about 300 feet above the ground and dashed the sixteen occupants of the car to the earth. None was killed, but all were seriously injured, suffer- ing broken legs and arms and prob- ably internal injuries. It is believed several will die. When the ascension was made thousands of people gathered to wit- ness the trial. The giant ship, which ‘was 450 feet long and 36 feet in diam- eter, a combination of the aeroplane and dirigible air craft, driven by six gasoline engines generating 200 horse- power, rose successfully from the ground and rose to a height of prob- ably 300 feet. The car was occupied by sixteen men who had become inter- ested in the invention and who agreed to make the trial trip before taking stock in it. They were all residents of Berkeley and Oakland. Suddenly the large gas bag contain- ing 500,000 cubic feet of illuminating gas burst. The machine began to set- tle slowly as the gas escaped and it appeared that it would settle to the ground without injuring the occupants of the car. When it had reached with- in seventy-five feet of the ground, however, the remaining gas was let out with' a rush and the whole ma- chine, thousands of pounds in weight, dashed to the . ground with terrific force. The occupants of the car were caught under the heavy machinery and all seriously injured. Rendered Homeless by Fire.
