When the police saw what ap- peared to be a man jump into the shaft, they called to the officers of the Zeppelin but Hans von Schiller, navigator, responded “Oh, we have- n't time to take him off.” None of those watching, however knew definitely whether there was a stow- away on the dirigible, and the sibility w admitted that searchlights playing on the airship | may have given the impression of 4 man jumping.
