LONDON, May %6.—No solution of the mystery surrounding the disap- pearance of Gustave Hamel, the British aviator who started on Sat- urday morning to crose the English Channel from France, was found to- day, although a thorough search of the sea was made by @ swarm of torpedoboat destroyers and extensive inquiries were made along the coasts of France and England. Another flotilla of destroyers was sent out this morning to relieve those which had been searching all night. Hamel last week made the announce- ment that he would attempt to cross the Atlantic in bis aeroplane in the coming fall. ‘The only hope entertained here to- day for the safety of Hamel is that a tramp steamer picked him up or that he has landed on some desolate point on the French cosst.

It ascended about ten feet and then dropped like a pulmmet to the base- ment with a terrific crash. The screams of the girls as they fought in vain to get out rang through the building. Then came a series of terrific crashes as ten huge counterweights shoot down the shaft to the bottom, Over a ton of iron rained below, but not one of them flew from the sides of the shafts and the lives of the trapped girls were saved. The door of the car became jammed and Michael Tackery, the man in charge of the car, found it impossi- ble to get the door open. The terri- fled girls tore at each other in an effort to reach the basement, and many of them fainted dead away. When the jammed door was finally cleared the jority of the prisonera had to be lifted out, for they were un- conscious, They were laid in the basement, which is used for folding patterns, and the two hurriedly summoned physicians and an ambu- lance surgeon from the New York Hospital reauscitated the victims.

Finally, when Miss Sullivan made a demand for the clothes, they were sent to her but many fine linens and handsome gowns that Hoe bought for her were missing. “When did you find out that Mr, Hoe waa a married man?” asked Mr. Towns. “In February, 1912, Mr. Hoe called on me and said he had something ti tell me,” the witness replied. asked me what I would do when found out what it was.
