SAN JOSE, May 21.—Two sensational flights of Professor Montgomery's aero- | | planes were given this afternoon at Agri- | cultural Park. Unkind fate hovered over the cxhibitions, for in the first attempt the aeroplane broke loose from the bal- | loon at a height of 150 feet and dropped | quickly to the ground, and in the second flight the ropes became tangled and the aeroplane could not be loosened and was | carried two miles below the city. The | aeronaut came back to earth when the balloon had cooled sufficiently to allow | him to descend. The 3500 people present in Agricultural | Park were satisfied, however. Fully as| many more spectators were outside the fence, and thousands viewed the exhibi- | tion from their homes. There was a de- | y of nearly three hours, and it was 5 ock when the big hot air balloon ch was to raise the aeroplane was | filled for the exhibition. This is the big- gest balloon of the kind ever construct- ed, being seventy feet high and 150 feet in circumference. The aeroplane Santa Clara was the | first sent up. A great cheer arose as the | bird-like structure was hauled upward, but when it had reached 150 feet the rope attaching it to the balloon parted. The | aeroplane at once started downward, | but aeronaut Daniel Maloney did not! lose his head and at once began steering | it in a circle. It answered his tugs at the | gear, circled a few times and finally landed lightly on the racecourse about | 100 yards from where it started. Maloney | skillfully dodged a crowd of spectators. | s illustrated the merits of the ma- chine better than any test heretofore | made, and showed that it was safe in a | short flight. If it had been a plrnchute Maloney would have been killed, as it could not have opened in that distance. Professor Montgomery announced that| another exhibition “would be given. A oon was secured and the aeroplane Santa Clara II was prepared for flight. It was 7 o'clock when Maloney started with the second aeroplane. About 1000 feet up it could be seen that two wind- lass ropes connected with the balloon had not been dropped and had become tan-i gled in the aeroplane. Maloney was un- able to free the machine. He had to be content to stay with the balloon and was | arried two miles south of the city. He| alighted with the balloon in a grain field. ‘The aeronaut was uninjured. ‘PROQEC[TIO\ LOSES ITS MAIN WITNESS | | Fails to Appear at the Pre- liminary Hearing of His Assailant.
