Where Salloons Outfit to Etr

- On map of Oregon In The Journal
office today. Captain H. E. Honey
well of the balloon "United States,"
. the flrt to land 'of the four that left
Portland Thursday afternoon, drew a
mail circle, embracing an area repre
senting foslbly 20 square miles. The
upper area of ttte circle watt placed at
Oregon city and the lower area was
placed along Mill Creek.
"Within that circle you will hear
that Captain Berry landed," Honey
well asserted. "I believe he landed
tiiere because he struck the same
storm we did, was under the same
conditions, and couldn't possibly get
out." .
Half an hour later the telephone
hell Jingled with a long distance call
from Beaver Creek, 6 miles southeast
of Oregon City, Then came the story
of Berry's landing and his adventure.
The point' came well within Honey
well's circle.
. 1 Believes Balleons Are Down.
Taking the map again. Captain Hon
eywell drew another circle. He placed
it In southern Clackamas and Marion
rounty, parti of the circle covering a
section of the national forest reserve
In the Cascade mountains.
'. "When you hear from those other
fellows, you will find that they landed
pretty ' close to the spot I have
marked," the aeroseut explained.
. "Those nations were In the air much
longer 'than we were, all night prob
ably, and maybe all day yesterday, but
mjr experience In ballooning tells me
that they could nm. have remained up
. any longer. In the first place they
had to waste a fot of ballast getting
.out of some. of' those storms we saw,
and which Berry and I passed through.
Then, too, atmospheric conditions were
such as to make gas conditions far
from satisfactory. I think It is beyond
any possibility that Watts and Donald
son were up any longer than sometime
, yesterday afternoon or evening."
' 'This last was my one hundred and
ninety-sixth trip In a balloon, and In
mint respects It Is the most remark
able one of them all," Honeywell re-
- Is ted. "I have been In storms far
worse with respect to rain and wind,
but the lightning was the most terrific
I have ever experienced.
Rope Acted as Conductor.
"I never had electricity circulate
around me like it did Thursday night.
We were traveling in a southerly di
rection when the storm' came out af
the southeast. Another one came
1 from the west and while "we were try
ing to get away the two vortexes came
together. We were whirled round and
round, and rapldlr'GescendeO. -
"We had a 800 foot trail rope, an
pretty, soon it began hitting the tops
of trees." - When we began to get the
lightning that rope looked like an in
candescent wire. It acted, as a light
ning rod. however, conducting the elec
tricity into the ground, and we didn't
dare raise it for fear that the full
force of the lightning would come
on 'us.
"Likewise we didn't dare throw out
rmllaet and go any'. higher. Close to
the ground our -gas was contracted,
the appendix was closed and there was
little danger of the sparks of lightning
touching U off.
"The gas Is highly combustible. Had
we gone higher, the gas would have
expanded, the appendix would .have
. opened, and a lightning flash would
h;ave touched it - off. Of course we
could have taken the chance, thrown
out ballast and ascended- rapidly;
through the storm, going up 10,000 or
16,000 feet, but we left all our clothes
on the grounds here in Portland, when
we got away too soon. Neither Dr.
Stewart nor myself had any other
clothes with us than tie ones on our
backs.
"Tie lightning, when It struck, sung
and buzsed like wireless and blue
flames played around our hats and on
the baaket projections."
Captain Honeywell took his balloon
this afternoon to the circus grounds
from where the ascent was made and
drained the water out Of It Many
gallons of rain water- were caught In
side the bag after It had descended.
"I shall not- attempt another flight
tn Portland at this time," Honeywell
stated. "The balloon is badly ripped
and the other equipment damaged and
I expect to leave tonight for St Louis.
However, I expect to come back here
sometime, because t believe under the
right weather conditions, record flights
could Tie .made." ,
