At 9:15 it had disappearcd southward toward Bogota. Colonel Lindbergh passed over Sincerin at 1 a. m. He was fol- lowing the San Jorge river. Sin- cerin is about 60 miles from Car- tagena. Meantime, a tremendous crowd gathered at the Madrid aerodrome, where Lindbergh was to land. Per- sons came from all nearby cities and the population of Bogota was at the field, almost en masse. Soldiers and police established heavy guards to keep the crowd in order. The weather was fair, United Press bulletins from Carta- gena were posted at the air field, telling of Lindbergh's departure. Trail™®ver Mountains Cartagena, Colombia, Jan, 27 (P— | The tiil of the Lone Eagle today | |led inland from the sea over the | mountains of Colombia, the moun- ! tains and the fogs which rise around their rugged peaks making the Jjourney doubly dangerous. Four hundred miles of flying lay before Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh before he reached the secluded mountain capital of Bogota. Bogota, nestled in the shadows of Monser- | rate and Guadalupe has never en- tertained a renowned flier, for it had becn feared that to invite any one to fly through the banks of clouds which encircle the mountains might be inviting the flier to court disaster. It took Lindbergh four hours and a half to fly to Cartagena from Colon, Panama, yesterday. He esti- mated the distance at 400 miles. The weather during the flight was ideal, ! he said, and & wind at his back helped him make good time. ‘This port did all it could to ex- press the honor it felt at being the first point in South America to be visited by the aitman. Sirens of ships in the harbor, laden with tropical fruits, shrieked their greet- ing as the Spirit of St. Louis flew over the city. The whistles of fac- tories and trains added to the din of welcome. The greatest ecrowds ever seen in this city gathered at the flying fleld. Lindbergh circled it several times and then landed In front of the box of the Governor of Bolivia. ST.

Trading showed a substantial in- crease in volume, With fears of an increase in the New York Federal Reserve bank rediscount rate allayed, at least for enother week, and the increase in brokers' loans relatively insignifi- cant, speculators for the advance re- sumed their operations with confl- (dence.
