BROKEN | oot Paris, May 30.— Voyage from Friedrichshafen to Bitterfeld Be gun Under Unfavorable Conditions - 456 MILES WITHOUT LANDING — Count Zeppelin in the Zeppelin II. Disappoints Hundreds of Thousands of Spectators who had Gathered in Berlin te See Him Land—Instead the Navigator Turn. ed Ship and at Last Reports was on the Return Jour- ney to Friedrichshafen. pE —_— and then a card was thrown out, stat- ing that a great amount of water and benzine had been used than was ex- pected, and that the craft would de- scend to the surface of Lake Dutzen- teich, to replenish the water supply. This, however, was not carried out. Ccunt Zeppelin continued his cruise onward without interruption in a di- rect line towards Berlin, passing over several towns at a low altitude amid the cheers of the popuiace, until he reacheqd the frontiers of Saxony, where the airship was headed straight for Leipsix. Turned and Sailed to the South. Telegrams received there from the gouth indicated that Count Zeppelin would make a landing, and the entire populace waited for several hours on the streets and open spaces to greet him. Instead of landing, the eount put his craft through a series of ma- noeuvres for half an hour, coming at times comparatively close to the tops of the buildings. He then went on, crossing Halle to Bitterfeid. No time was wasted there, and to everybody's surprise the airship, after describing a great circle, turned again and sailed to the south. Berlin Authorities in Dark as Count’s Plans. In the meantime, the military au- thorities at Berlin were absolutely without advices as to the count’s plans. Major Gross, commander of the army halloon corps, said that no arrange- ments had been made for the landing of the airship at Tegel, the military balloon headquarters. The local au- thorities, however, learned from pri- vate despatches that the airship was approaching and so informed the em- peror and princes. Orders were given to prepare a space in the Tempelhof field. This was surrounded by lines of police and troops and virtually the entire population of the capital swarm- ed thither and waited on tiptoe of ex- pectation unti] long after dark. Then a special newspaper despatch spread the depressing news of the airship's return. The crowds at first refused to give credence to this report, but finally dispersed. When the emperor and empress left the field the troops marched away, Berlin, May 30.—Count Zeppelin, whose remarkable performance in his first airship brought unbounded hon- ors to the inventor, today accomplish- ed the most striking feat in his ca- recr. He guided his Zeppelin IL from Friedrichshafen to Bitterfeld, a distance of more than 4566 miles, without land- ing. The journey lasted mearly twen- e e Bapaeita ia stil In the tonight, Count Zeppelin is s air, on the return journey to Friedrich- shafen, He has alyeady beaten sll records for dirigible bclloo: with the opper- tunity of greatly improving the per- formance. 5 Was Expected te Land at Berlin. It was announced and widely dis- tributed In special editions of the newspapers that the count would come to Berlin and land et the Tempelhof parade ground. Hundreds of thousands gathered there this afternoon. The emperor and empress, several of the princes and the Jeading military offi- cialg and officers were present and to- wards evening sear hts were set to work in antielpation of the approach of the airship. Soldiers kept an enor- rous space clear, until half past ten ‘< ¢’clock at night, when a despatch from Bitterfeld announced that the airship was returning to the starting point at Friedrichshafen, which caused the rmost intense disappointment. The voyage began under rather un- faverable conditions. There was a lowering sky, rain, clouds and a strong side wind when the airship left the !lbutlnr hall shortly after nine o'clock last night. Noise of Propellers Awakened Sleepers Early in the morning the people of Treuchtlingen, a small city in central Favaria, were awakened by the noise of the propellers of the craft, which was passing slowly at a low altitude. At this place the count dropped out a card, divulging his intention to pro- ceed further north. This was the first occasion he had journeyed over Ba- varia, and his arriva] an hour and a balf later at Nuremburg caused the greatest surprise to thousands of pieasure secekers who were preparing for the holiday excursions, The ship manoeuvred over the eity to .A bilt's Oversight won “Prix (Prod da; hal luce stakes) at Longchamps y.

Hundreds of persons in thé country around Zephyr saved themselves by taking refuge in storm cellars. Relief Trains Hurried to Scene. The big stone school and two churches at Zephyr were fazed.

Distorted Human Bo Twisted About Tree: While the tornado’s path was 300 yards wide, the “twister” swept the earth for a distance of only about a mile. Its fury was more terrible than any previous tornado experienced In this region. ‘When the first relief party reached Zephyr, a desolate scene awaited. The hillsides at Zephyr were covered with dacbris of all kinds intermingled with bodies of animals and human beings. The ruins were dimly lighted by burn- ing bulldings, and the cries of the wounded, rising above the screechings of the disappearing storm, guided the rescuers in their work. Human bodies were found twisted about trees and distorted every conceivable shape. Survivors, mad with grief and terror, walked the streets almost naked, crying for lost relatives. The houses that escaped the storm were turned into hospitals and morgues. Brownwood, with an excellently or- ganized relief corps, has the situation well in hand, Urges Reform Measures. Rev.
