New York, July 17.—Nothing has been heard of Inventor Campbell's air ship or its navigator, Prof. E. D. Hogan, and their whereabouts are as great a mystery as at midnight last night. The friends of Acronaut Hogan are becoming alarmed and do not talk as confidently as they did last evening. A reporter found Mr. Campbell this morn- ing anxiously awaiting the arrival of news of the air ship. Inventor Pape aaa said he had been up all night and had telegraped to differ- ent points in Connecticut and Long Island in- quiring whether any one had seen the queer- looking and oddly-rigzed ship. No one was able to give him any clue, and the inventor lcoked careworn and anxious. “QT 18 ALL VERY MYSTERIOUS, he said, “and I am at a loss to account for it. I have not the slightest idea where Hogan could have gone with the ship. He could have come down even after he had lost the fan-like pro- peller, as he had a valve rope and could have allowed the gas to escape. It may be possible that the valve rope has broken. He hada knife along with hin, however, and could have climbed up the netting to the balloon and cut a vent in it. . ——— Protection From the Italians.
