All the way we were fighting our way through a blanket of mist and rain and couldn’t see 50 feet ahead. “We must have flown in circles, for the next wireless call of which 1 picked up a fragment, showed that ‘we\ were somewhere near Havre. Gas Supply Low URE “We went on, hoping for a rift in the clouds through which we might see, land when day came. But we wete running terribly short of gaso- line,- At 5 o'clock this morning there was nothing left but to come down and trust to luck. We did so and had a cold _ea bath.” Commander Byrd also was quoted as saying that his wireless apparatus failed to. pick up, land signals and that his Compass was completely out of order.

Near Death’ From Burns Bismarck Woman- Critically Burned When Clothing Catches Fire From Stove Mrs. Dorothea Jundt is in a crit-! ical condition at St. Alexius hospi- tal today, with little hope held for her recovery, as the result of severe | burns received at 7:30 this morning when a gasoline stove at her home,| 323 Tenth street, caught fire and the flames spread to her clothing. Almost her entire body is said to be covered with deep burns. Mrs, Jundt, had gone to the base- ment, where ‘the stove was located, to light the burners and when she struck @ match the flames shot up from the stove, instantly igniting her clothing. The fire department was called and soon extinguished the fire in the bagement with chem- icals, little damage being done to the house except by smoke. Mrs. Jundt'’s husband died several years ago. She has several sons grown and away from home except Dorothy, 18, and Christine, 22, who live: with their mother. One daugh- ter, Sister Arline, is a nun at St. Benediet’s convent, St. Joseph, Minn.

(AP)—Practically valuable scientific data collected by Commander Byrd on his trip across the Atlantic were lost in the wreckage of the plane here today. Byrd expressed keen dis- appointment over thi i of his records, All removable instru- ments, the three engines and parts which could be saved from the plane America had been sal- vaged this afternoon. The plane was practically torn to pieces in the water and most of the instra- ments saved. Paris, July 1.—()-—-The transat- lantic flight of Commander Byrd, aft- er hard luck and tremendous diffi- culty, ended just after dawn today in the sea 200 yards from the beach of the little seaside resort of Ver-Sur Mer, 178 miles west of Pari _ The aviators swam ashore and immediately went to sleep in a little cottage to which they were taken. The monoplane America was badly | damaged—how badly awaited deter- ‘mination until the worn out flyers should have a good sleep, ¥ _, From the advices reaching Paris, it appeared the plane came down at 5:45 o'clock which would mean they were in the air 43 hours 21 minutes from the time they left Roosevelt Field, N. Y., with Paris as the goal. Presumably the flyers faged death in their flight that lasted for oad two days. For hours over the Atlantic they were unable to see the ocean determine with any accuracy, ex- cept with the aid of ‘the radio, just tney were. On three occa- even the tips of the wings were obscured from the anxious man in the’ pilot’s seat. Greatest Peril Over Land But it was over land itself . that the greatest peril came. In the dark- ness of a rainy and stormy fight, when their compass failed to work, they literally wandered about high ‘in the air, seeking # place to come down.. The radio guarded them over the sea, but somehow it failed on land. When their own signals were heard, as they were at frequent in- tervals, the receiving stations were ul le to locate their position in the ‘The most critical time of all came when it seemed to all the observers that they must be over Paris search fing through clouds and fog for the lights of the Le Bourget Field. Then their signals ceased. At last, at 1:25 o’clock in the morning, came an ap- peal for guidance. But no one knew where they were und help was im- possible. Anxious watchers uground were forced to wait helplessly throughout the remaining hours of darkness, unable even to guess where the plane had gone. Over Paris Once_ The reports from Ver-Sur-Mer in- dicate that they actually were over Paris at 3 o'clock in the morning and that for some reason, as yet unex- plained, they turned about and went westward again. The last place the plane was actually seen\was at Brest, about 200 miles west of the spot where it came down. That was at 8:33 p. m., when the French Cal company announced it had cl ly seen the distinguishing marks of the craft. After that the air was filled with all sorts of incorrect reports that the plane had been sighted, even that it had landed safely at Issy Les Moul- imeaux, The landing at hay was an- nounced by Commandant Renvoise, of Le Bourget air field, and the prefect of police, who later admitted that their information was erroneous, © Worst Night of Season The night was one of the worst of the season in Paris. Rain fell in tor- rents, the clouds hung low and so thickly that the sky was as com- pletely hidden as the earth must have been to the men in the plane. Contrary winds whirled about, and as hour after hour passed the watch- ers were sure the plane had either been forced down or c spot in the fields or surround Paris. As the night wore on without defi- nite news, the French ministry of in- terior issued instructions that a com- pletejsearch be --ade insediney of been forced to spot.
