AIRSHIP TRIP
TO NORTH POLE.
Features of Walter Wellman's
Latest Attempt In His Dirigible.
PROVISIONS TAKEN FOR A YEAR
Explorer Expected' to Make the Trip
In Four or Five Days if Successful.
Food For the Expedition is Carried
In Special Guide Ropes.
For several years Walter Wellman,
a Chicago newspaper man and tnaga-
Eine writer . who recently left Spitz
bergen. Norway, In his dirigible bal
loon bound for the north pole, has
been working to carry out his belief
that the north pole can be discovered
in an airship. He has made two
expeditions by sledge and boat Into
the polar regions and Is well acquaint
ed with conditions there. His airship
;! theory grew out of his experience and
? his .study of the progress of aero
' nautics. After two years of prepara
tion his dirigible balloon, the America,
first ascended from Dane's island,
Spitsbergen, on Sept. 2. 1907. carrying
; Mr. : Wellman and two assistants, to
make a dash ftr the pole. A. furious
. Btorm made progress Impossible, and
- the party descended safely on a gla
cier. His First Hunt For the Pole.
The Initial expedition of Mr. Well
! man In quest of the pole was made in
1894 by sledge and boat from Spits
bergen. He reached latitude 81 de-
i grees. His second trip was made by
j the same means in 1898-9. when he
penetrated to latitude 82 degrees north,
j Then Mr. Wellman turned his atten
! tion to the airship problem. M. Louis
Godard, a French expert, was given
j an order to construct the largest and
j strongest dirigible balloon In existence.
1 With the exception of the Zeppelin
j craft, no airship of the balloon type
has ever been constructed so large as
j the America.
j , Shiped northward from France In
the early summer of 1906, the Amer
. Ica reached Spitzbergen early In July.
" It was found to have so many defects
'that It was sent back to M. Godard's
' shops to be reconstructed. In the fol
. lowing summer It again reached Dane's
: Island.
j Gales and the work of perfecting the
details of the airship delayed Mr. Well-
,man until Sept. 2. when the ascent
" was made. Owing to the lateness of
the season no other attempt was pos
sible in 1907. .The America has since
:. been In storage. The inflating of it
began on July 31.
; Escaped Disaster Three Times.
In September. 1907.' the storm bore
the airship three times toward the
mountains, but each time the. Amer
ica, by means of its motor power, was
able to make a circle and escape Im
pending disaster. Finally Mr. Well
iQ.an concluded it was useless to con
tinue so hazardous a journey, and a
descent was effected on a glacier half
a mile from the sea. The airship had
been in the air three hours and a quar
ter, and Its motor machinery .never
stopped until the order was given to
stop it. Mr. Wellman's companions at
that time were Meivin Vaniman of
Paris, who was chief engineer of the
America, and Felix Riesenberg of Chi
cago, who was navigator.
Mr Wellman left New York on May
12 of this year for Spitsbergen, where
he has been engaged in completing his
preparations for the start he is now
said to have made a few days ago.
Ho estimates that under favorable
conditions the pole can be reached
from Spitzbergen in from , two to five
days.
Mr. Wellman estimated that his air
ship America would hold 226,000 cubic
feet of gas. capable of lifting 20,000
pounds and retaining its buoyancy for
thirty days. His ship and equipment
weigh 7.000 pounds and his cargo ap
proximately 8.000.
Wellman's Companions.
He has with him Meivin Vaniman, a
young American, who is his right hand
man and has figured much in con
tinental . theoretical aeronautics the
past year, and a third person whose
name is not known in New York.
The explorer had planned to carry
5,500 . pounds of gasoline, food and
other supplies, enough to last a year;
a complete sledding outfit, a large life
boat and wireless telegraph apparatus.
The steel car is 115 feet long. 8 feet
high, 3 feet wide and shaped like a
V. 'Its keel is a tank containing 1,115
gallons of gasoline. The ninety horse
power motor drives two twin screw
propellers made of steel, " eleven and
one-half feet in diameter.
The car Is divided Into fourteen sec
tions of eight feet each. One holds
the navigating deck, another the motor
and machinery, and the third is where
the crew sleeps and eats. Food Is
carried in specially constructed guide
ropes.. The hams, bacon, butter and
bread stuffed Into long leather tubes,
six Inches thick, serve the purpose of
keeping the craft within reasonable
distance of the ground. . - v
v The airship Is made of several thick
nesses of fabric, two of cotton and one
'Of silk. which gives the greatest pos
sible strength: to the envelope in pro
portion to lightness.
: Mr Wellman's attempt recalls the
Andre expedition of twelve years ago,
JtAndre built a huge spherical balloon.
which he expected to steer with a sail
and' drag ropes. .He never returned,
and it is believed that he was killed
by Eskimos. .
