Golconda is only 130 miles from St. Louis. Changeable nir cur rents demonstrated to the aeromuts that they could not win the cup and for that reason they made the landing near here. The balloon was brought to Golconda In wogons. McCoy goes with it from here to New York, while Captain Chnndler goes to Washington. Captoin Chandler made the trip for the purpose of making balloon observations for the I'nlted States army.

It crossed the Mississippi river and continued southward near th? river some distance when it was driven back into Missouri. It then continued south until near the Arkansas line. At 12 o'clock, noon, today, the balloon hovered over Cape Girardeau, Mo. A west wind there took It across to Illinois. Just before crossing the river the drag rope struck a tree, impeding the progress of the balloon. Ballast was thrown ,out and the balloon rose to an altitude of two miles. The sun came out and It went still higher. It continued east Into Indiana. Here an east wind struck the balloon, driving it Into the clouds. Emerging from the clouds the aeronauts found themselves over the Ohio river near Golconda. They decided to descend.' The balloon wns in the air about nine teen hours.
