" Dirigible and Main Hangar Destroyed. Flame Leaping More Than 100 1 Feet High Injured Airplanes and Other Structures. Norfolk, Va.. July 24. The buckling i j'Wf one of the main braces of the great , gas bag of a dirigible balloon which - probablv " came in contact with a live ' wire caused a fire at the naval base to- day which not only-destroyed the dir- :,igible and the main hangar building . and slightly damaged other, structures at the naval air station, but damaged a dozen or more airplanes . and caused . - a number of minor injuries to men fighting the fire. Ten were overcome s. while fighting the fire. . The dirigible, under the pilotage of Boatswain Mulleneux, who was accom- panied ly a student, had made a flight over Norfolk and returned to the naval base -when the accident occurred. As ,the big gas bag was circling for a landing the tall end was seen to buckle And turn back on ifself. The dirigible -became unmanageable and although the pilot and the student both made " tremendous efforts to land in the clear, v ' the "big bag settled on the roof of the v main hangar. , The dirigible remained on the roof S ' of the hangar for a minute before any J , thing further occurred. Boatswain t Mulluneux and the student climbed out of the car to the roof and were look ; ing the bag over with a view of as- . certaining the damage done the balloon. ' . A number of men, including Commander , P. N. L. Bellinger, commandant of the I - air station, were climbing to the roof . to ascertain what had happened. Without warning the big gas bag, nder pressure of thousands of cubic feet of hydrogen gas, exploded and flames shot up more than 100 feet into 'i the air. The highly inflammable gas was like a blast torch and before a ;.move bould be made the wooden struc- v ture upon which the balloon rested, was a mass of flames. Although the loss is heavy, Captain ' Bellinger stated last night that the work of the air station would proceed without a hitch. The salvage of the i. airplanes will allow of it and the pos session of another blimp, as this par ticular type of dirigible is called, will allow instruction in that branch of aeronautics. The remaining blimp, in-. : cidentally, has seen service in France. An hvestigation will be made into - the cause of the buckling of the brace in the gas bag but it is hardly believed that any great amount of light will be gained. The dirigible was entirely de stroyed and there are no remains to . investigate. The hangar, which was of frame construction, also presents little ; opportu ty for investigation. The loss will not exceed $50,000. SINGLE LINE BETWEEN HUNS AND DISASTER j - f Continued From Page One.) , , would put him entirely at the mercy . of the allied forces." -General March did not indicate what development the continued battle all If along the front of the greatly reduced f German salient might be expected to produce. Among other officers, however, the opinion prevailed that General Foeh was rushing forward masses of . heavy artillery which, with airplanes, would pound the interior of the Ger-. mai) positions from three sides. . As these officers see the situation, . the very strength of the German lines . now established will make his losses great from the concentrated fire of the I allied artillery and aircraft. The en ,.emy forces occupy a wedge, the center" - - of which is less than fifteen miles dis , tant from the hard-pressing lines of Kthe allies at any point. ;A11 his com . munication lines are within gun range, - ' once the "heavies" get up behind the - allied lines. There Is another consideration. Lack- ,i ingf railway lines on which to ma- . neuver, the enemy probably is making desperate efforts to get. his biggest -,guns away sareiy. 'The attacking lines are backed by circling railways on " I which long range weapons on railway . luuuut8 can oe snutuea back and forth .at will. It "is recalled that the Ger- - man attack on Chateau Thierry little . r more than a week ago was accompa y nied by the fire of big naval guns, ' - shells from which fell ten to fifteen miles behind the lines. ' .7- ' J The bitterness of the battle around j Chauteau Thierry and along that por tion of the north bank of the Marne ' V where the enemy still retains a footing V- Probably is largely due to his deter f mination to stave off Franco-American attacks from the south at least until " ; , the big weapons have been dragged ' , back to" safety. The American advance " "reported today through Chatelet for " . est -and to the northeast of Epiedes is -'. beginning to menace seriously enemy ' posiUons further eastward on the ; 'Marne which are covering his -with-' irr- -drawal within the salient. y' . Itas been estimated that the Ger-i-- w- 3 mans now have as many as half a mll lion men in the limited salient they V.- Btill hold. Afcout 40 divisions are un , derstood to have been Identified there - , The irregularly shaped pocket is about thirty miles broad at its base, between -r Soissons and Chateau Thierry, while i T its greatest depth is around 'twenty Z miles ? Obviously .it is saidt the eriimy C is badly cramped for space In which to . t , bandle this huge army. - - - Should. the final rail connection northward come under direct gunfire it .,. is .regarded as possible by many of fleers that a veritable rout would re . ' suit as . the massed forces of the enemy - could; not all be gotten away. - J Appraised at its. lowest probable . , value, "officials say, the counter-stroke - already1 has drawn in the enemy's moBt x vital necessity his reserves.- His , f whole plan of campaign has been over !; - turned in less than, a week, and it i8 ' regarded as , more "than probable that f the initiative seized by General Foch - will reniain in his bands "permanently -, to . bet amplified into blows af other ' , parts of hthe line, n . : v ; ; , y ' Genfrat March'a .Statement. . . ; General 5 March's" .statement follows 'On Saturday i ; called your attend tion to the' importance of tfce railroad ' "r system in the; salient which was under . 1 . discussion:' as influeaoingr the position a" : ofthe s Germans south ' ofthe - Marne - T and while I was i taH-,inr: the ; Germans - r- were" actually - withdrawing from", that FR THEVJfELBVES ;tK.

"Along the salient here, between the Marne and .Rheims;' on teeast- flank; of the salient, theeneray' 'has been pushed back over a ten-mile front for' an average distance of one and a half-miles.- This.' has 'been done yBritish, French, apd Italian troops,; through a very wooded country and over high ground,' reaching up, , something like 500 feet above the'-sreams;- "Along the , Marne itself the Ameri cans and French .have "crossed the river at a . number of poipts and now hold villages to , the, nibrth of the Marne. " . Used 15 Divisions Rej-ervea -. "The - response of. the Germans to the counter-offensive 'of ' Foch was to throw in: at .Soissons' and 'South of it a large number of ' reserve divisions which he had ,n6't.- used' ittf -his advance across tie Marne. Our belief is that he threw in there fifteen divisions, but the advance of -the allies 'at that point, has been practically steady for . the last two days as, far 'as our. official in fo a-mation goes.' ' ' .' "Tbe railroad .running from Soissons to Chateau Thierry is now' either In our hands or under our fire.-'.The Only way in which the enemy can get out now or get supplies .over ? railroad is shown, by the remaining JIne running from Nanteuil on the Ourcq to Ba zoches on the. river Vesleri He may have constructed in addition to' that in and along the valleys small tem porary field railroads, military roads, which would be of great -advantage In handling supplies, but his main line of retreat must be along that main, rail road. That is the- only way. be can get out large - material. It will be observed that it was necessary for him, if he did not intend ;to be-caught ab solutely in a pocket, to' keep troops from advancing and cutting off this road which would put htm entirely at the mercy of, the allied 'forces. Simllar to Austrian Tlan. , "It is very interesting to note in connection with this entire movement the similarity between the . Austrian advance across the Piave. The enemy once gotten committed ,to it, the floods came and rendered further bringing up of supplies difficult and his retreat still more difficult and in theK instance of the counter-offensive the,:torm, of which you have read,: concealed the movement of our tanks-and 'made the enemy practically unaware t of what was going on. "It seems that the Lord has grotten tired of the alleged partnership of Me und Gott. "The total area in the Marne salient lost by the enemy during the past week is about equal to, the aera -gained by j him in the drive -in Flanders last' April. - . The small attack by the French. alluded to in their communique as a local affair north of Montdidier. is not of essential importance with reference to the entire erame but it keens the Germans guessing just the same. "During this entire encounter offen sive the American divisions which have told you about .before have been constantly engaged and were still en gaged at our last official accounts. Six New Divisions.' "With reference to the American pro gram. I have directed to be organized in the United States six "new divisions in the month of July. These six divis ions will be organized, at Camps De vens, Meade, Sheridan, Custer, Funstpn and Lewis and will' be -. .numerically designated rrom 9 up to 14. In the or ganization of these .divisions we." In tend to use as a nucleus in each one of them two regular regiments of in fantry which have been taken from the regular regiments '.left-in, the United States guarding,, utilities..: ouietly re placing them during., the last month or two Dy nomeguaras.; , These regi ments are now moving into "the desig- naiea camps as. tne national army moves out and the divisions will be an increase to the American forces. 'The remaining elements of these divisions will be formed by national army draft ed men. SMITH HEADS N; Y.

Promotion and Devel opment Enterprises Daring the' War. ' ; " v. Washington July 24. Propaganda .educating the public to the value of Liberty bonds as investments also has served to aid the flotation of many times more wildcat securities ' than in peace time. . This was asserted today by Louis B. Franklin, director of Lib erty loan organization for. the treas uhy, at a conference of government agencies and other organizations called by .the capital issues committee, to con sider means of suppressing hughly speculative promotion and development enterprises during the war. Other speakers declared, the sale of wildcat stocks ,and bonds had increas ed many fold rwithin. the last year, owing to the high wages and the wil lingness of 'promoters to take Liberty bonds in payment for their securities. A nation-wide' system of minimizing this form of fraud was arranged. . Mr. Franklin stated that the success of Liberty loan , campaigns had taught promoters new lessons in the market ing' of ;their securities. .. . t " These men - had virtually thrown wy "stfeker lists," he said, and so licited thousands of wage earners with the" piea that government, require-. 1 meats for frfl,: oal and other-products i demanded. -that patriotic citizens loan money, for development of new wells. mines or lactones. ' Betweeni80and 90 per. cent of fraud ulent securities ; now being marketed re fiiven in ; exenange ror iaoerty ponas, wnjph are sold by the. promot ers, said mk Franklin. Between ; 2SO,DOO,000 and; ,500,000, 000 of fraudulent securities not passed upon Dy the capital issues .committee and not recognized py organized in vestment bankers have been marketed in the United States within the last year, said ."Richard Morse, 'representing me . investment cankers', association. This sum is lost both to the individ ual purchasers, and to the government, he, explained. " , - These wild-cat securities - have not been submitted ' to the capital ' issues committee for" approval, -although' the committee. -is. authorised to pass , upon all" issues of. stocks, bonds . or' notes of , more than $100,0t)(J, determining whether - they contribute "directly to war purposes. .
