6 BIG BALLOON BLOWN TO SEA SUCCESSFUL FLIGHT ATTEND ED BY DANGER PILOT HARRISON HANDLES "NEW YORK" PERFECTLY Huntington Park Trials Attended by Many Enthusiasts, Who Wit ness Christening of New Air Craft "The 'inly place in the world where such Imllooh events are possible" was tiic statement of Clifford B. Harmon moon after making one of the most successful flights ever at tempted in aerial navigation. Harmon succeeded in making the trial flight from Huntington Park to aviation field, and when his balloon, the New York, ared on tin 1 ground* Harmon was given a royal reception. George B. Har rison, pilot of the balloon, shared the applause given to the New Tork avi ator. Harmon stated before the ascension thnt lie would fly direct to the aviation grounds, and he made good with a vengeance. Shortly after 2 o'clock the big balloon was sighted, and a few min i later a successful landing was made. "Just wanted to show the crowd that balloons must be counted in the going when aerial stunts are consid .. The weather conditions were per fect, and I look to see a number of records made before the end of aviation week. I have heard much of Los An geles, but never before have I seen a city of so much enterprise. Los Angeles has set a pace that cannot be over come, and if aviation records are brok en they will be accomplished in Los Anseles. Peoria Is Entangled A large crowd was present at Hunt- Ington Park yesterday morning when Hue,- balloons started on flights. In tljo trials the Peoria became tangled with a telegraph pole and was "ma rooned" on the roof of the Weber build- Ing, Randolph street and Pacilic boule vard. Too much weight was carried by the Peoria, and a few seconds after its rise the crowd realized that some thing ivas wrong, as the balloon started slowly. Miss Marie A. Kanne, sister of the balloonist, Frank J. Kanne. was in the balloon, and despite the fact that it was her lirst flight, she showed no fright when the balloon lighted on the roof of the Weber building. As it waa evident that too much e.t waa carried, one of the passen gers left when the balloon alighted, and another ascent with Mr. Mars and Miss Kanne was made. The Dick Ferris balloon was chris tened shortly after 11 o'clock by Mrs. Ferris. Raising aloft a bottle of cham pagne, Mrs. Ferris dashed the contents on the supports of the balloon with the words. •'! christen you the Dick Ferris, and may you always win." As the balloons soared away a pretty sight v. as presented to the spectators.

For a time it was feared that the Peoria would fall into the ocean, but a favor able air current afforded an opportunity tor alighting. The Peoria alighted at 3:30 o'clock, after going far out over the ocean in the direction of Point Dume. After maneuvering the balloon was brought down at Clarkdale, on the line of the Los Angeles-Paciflc railway. Life Savers Prepared The sight of the big balloon sailing over the ocean caused a suspension of business at Venice, and the volunteer life-saving- squad was ordered to be ly in case of emergency. Dame Nature prevented any attempts at rescue, as the change in the wind brought the balloon back to shore. At least 20,000 residents of the beach cities witnessed the flight, and momentarily expected the daring aviators to fall to a watery landing. Launches were or dered out from the beach towns to be in readiness to effect a rescue if the balloon should flounder. 'Those who made the ascent in the Dick Ferris machine yesterday were C. F Wlllard, George Duesler, ('apt. H. C. Slotterbeck, P. H. Greer and C. F. Ed holm. In the New York were Clifford B. Harmon, Nat C. Goodwin, Bud Wood thorpe, Madame Paulhan, Baron Rob ert de Kersauson de Pennendroff, Ma dune Pennendroff and George B. Har rison. "That's the game for me," paid Har mon last night. "I will buy a balloon at once and make ascensions. It is wonderful what speed, distance and amount of ground has been covered Without an accident." The real balloon events will not start before Friday or Saturday, but that something in the nature of a surprise is indicated by the various balloon pilots.

Roberts, who holds several retail I Him its as an agent of the brewery, the commission decided to take up at least one case against Mr. Roberts and secured some of the evidence that Com missioner Topham lias been so dili j gently compiling. Roberts, as truste ■ for the Maler Brewing company, holds three retail permits in Los Angeles and .on in San Pedro, and he had been cited to appear before the commission and show cause why these permits should not be revoked, as the saloons for which he holds the permits are actually owned, as far as stock and fixtures are concerned, by other persons. Several members of the commission were inclined to delay the prosecution of the Roberts easel until the books of the brewery had been examined, but after a five minutes' close conference, in which Commissioner Topham de clared he would no longer serve on the committee of investigation that he has so successfully conducted unless at least one of the cases was tried, the commission decided Mr. Roberts would have to stand trial.

Snyder, who conducts ti saloon at 611 Moulton street, an opportunity to get a saloon location within the gone provided by law, the case against Loon Bernard w:is posl poned by the police commission until February 7. Stowing out of this case it || proba ble the Bar association will be asked to investigate Attorney William ('raw ford. At least Attorney F. J. Denlo declared that he would call the atten tion of the n^r association to Craw ford'a participation in what he alleges to be a shady transaction. According to the history of the Sny der and Bernard case, as presented by Attorney Denlo to the commission last night, the permit for the saloon at 6U Moulton street was secured about ten yean ago by the president of the Angeles Brewing company. Mr. Denlo said that Frod Baton, who was then mayor, and ins commission advised that the permit be taken out In the name of some one other than the I.os Angeles Brewing company and Leon Bernard, who was then employed by the brewery, was selected. Subsequently i Bernard was dismissed from the brew ery's employ and the saloon was sold to Snyder. Mr. Denio produced a docu ment showing that Bernard had ben paid $1">(> by the brewery to release his claim on the license, but the name on the permit was never changed. He said Snyder paid the i.os Angeles Brewing company $3000 for the license in addi tion to buying the stock and fixtures. Subsequently to this transaction the ordinance was, passed restricting the j saloon zone, but as this place was al ready in operation It was not disturbed. ''In April, 1909," said Attorney Denio, "Mr. Bernard evidently forgot he had signed away his rights to this license, and with "William Crawford acting as his attorney, wrote to Snyder demand- Ing that he be given $T. r,O cash, on.' share of stock and $.10 a month for the use of his name on the license. Mr. | Snyder paid no attention to this de mand and later Bwmard, through Crawford, submitted another as an ul timatum, offering to take $GOO cash and $40 a month and threatening, if this was not. paid, to present the f;i. i to the police commission and have the license revoked." Mr. Denio supported these state ments by presenting the letters thl I had basn sent to Hnyder. As Snyiler's place has never given the polios any trouble the comroliilon «;is inclined to be lenient and i»>sl poned action on the nnitter for four weeks. It also agreed that If Snyder i would get a location in the saloon gone the first available permit would be granted to him. LIQUOR PERMITS REVOKED BY POLICE COMMISSION The restaurant liquor permit of the Kerkow cafe, 211 South Broadway, and the wholesale permit of Sam Haller, 519 West Seventh street, were revoked by the police commission last night These two cases were tried before tli.' commission at its session Tuesday night. Evidence was introduced to show that Paul Kerkow had sold li quor without meals and that Haller had sold liquor from his wholesale house o;i Sundays. NOTED NEWSPAPER MAN RETURNS FROM MEXICO Edwin H.
