THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH THURSDAY OCTO

ph
In the presence of an såmining alrabip America waS BUCEROS yesterday morning, telegraphed city conrespondent of the Dally. on September 16 To-day, an 1 write this dis patch, the big craft in which, under the auspices of the Daily Telegraph " and the “New York Time" fr. Wellman, and their crew,
will endeavour to cross the Atlantic, cc.upies very much the same position as a vessel which has recently left the slips. The engines are to be ed, the finlablog touch is to be placed bere sod there, and then, by way of preliminary to the great fight, there will be a trial trip perhaps even two or threewing
To say that the airship is "faunched," moste in this case, that she hundreds of groen canvre bigs of sand which hold the big cigar-shaped Balloon, lifted with 35,000 cibic feet of hydrogeo que, safely to the ground, ware re- `lassað, er`vo readjusted that the balloon arose. is the air almost to the roof of the hangar, and for the Best time actually bore the load of the big attol car, weighing 4.400lb, in which the mptors are ball, and which also provides se commodation for the crew of six men, The same cigar-shaped ballcos, rafft, in length, has been tested to cry len tons for thirty days under Transatlantic conditions, but when the voyage commences there will be considerably | Isis waight, probably ons ofeighttons and a half This estimate includes the great, steel car, with. Its crew and machinery, the life-boat, which swings beneath the car and which, in case of necessity, can be sei free within a few recoads, and also the equilibrator, which scales
ons and a half ton.
The equilibrator is one of the most striking fe tures of the airship America. It trai's from the car into the sea, and, by most fagealous ar ringemacta secures stability for the airship -besides regulating the altituds above the san, a

A fow scora' steal wires were loassued, a few score bags of hand were removed, or readjusted, a few banks of the timber on which the keel of the çarrested was taken away, and the craft gently, but surely, restrained only by the hands of fifty workmen with ropes, ascended towards the ro:f.
...
Now the steel wires which held the car to the Borclops suddenly tightened, and when all was flating under restralot in the air, two
·feet clear of the ground, it was soon that all the- -weight was perfectly distributed, and that the aligament of the vessel was sa true as a split. lavri. This lifebɔnt will not be suspended from the car onlit the trial trip is made, and that big traiter, upon which so much depend", and upon which the ch'ef engineer, Mr. Vaniman, bases bis greatest hopes-it might be ßstligly des ¡cribed as bis shest-anchor-will not be attach

All the crew were present yesterday, when the foal preparations were made, and also number of visitors from New York, including

je Mr. Chamberlain, secretary of the expedition, mentions, as proof of the durability of the gay envelope, that du.ing the last two weeks caly four-lentes of one per cent of the contents have escaped per day, and they are prepared to lose 3.0.5 per cent. The surplos gas caused by expansion under heat will not be wasted, ba cause it will be drawn of from the envelope luto the angions, where it will be utilised to run the propellers, and to that extent save the gasolion. It is estimated that skree casks of water, sach

Mr. Aubert, the French-American who have been engaged as assistant ergloser, remarked grimly this afternoon that no fresh water will be wasted in washing hands or faces, and evan shaving will be considered unneces sary."
"So long as we land with the Stars and Stripes in England,” he said," I guess it won't matter vary much whather wa'are as black as stokers, and greasy to boq!."
Mr. Arbert is a cherub-ficed youth of 10, and is the youngest member of the crew. He con templates the forthcoming experiment very light-heartedly, but the young lady by whom' he was accompanied yesterday, alther his sÍKIKE or bis sweetheart, seemed far less cheerful. I asked Mrs, Wellman and Mrs. Vanimen, who witnessed the launch yesterday, whether they bað any misgivings, and they replied that thay. had perfect faith in their husbands and in the capacity of the airship and its equipment.
