'LONG DISTANCE ! FLIERS ESCAPE ! BURNING PLANE Mechanic Seriously Hurt: Uruguayans Cut Way Through Jungle. ; B;i Cniti 4 Press BOGOTA, Colombia. April 2. Three Uruguayan aviators who started from Montevideo March 17 j to fly in fifteen stages to New York, I and who have been lost since they ; passed over Guayaquil, Ecuador, at I 9:38 Sunday morning, struggled into i Bogota today with a thrilling story | of escape from a burning plane. Their plane, the 450-horsepower ! Arme, powered with a Lorraine motor, was destroyed by the fire after they had landed it and succeeding in escaping from its flaming body. Two of the aviators, Lieutenant Colonel Cesario Berisso and Major Roget Otero, who were unhurt, except for minor burns, were carrying mechanic Dagoberto Moll, who was rushed at once, to a hospital. His condition is said to be critical. The fliers said they had been forced down Sunday on the Gayapa river near Canoa in Ecuador. They arrived at Tumaco at 8:30 a. m. today. Lieutenant-Colonel Berisso told the United Press correspondent at Tumaco that the plane had been forced down at noon Sunday on the Gayapa river in Ecuador and that for nearly two days they had traveled by natives’ canoes and afoot struggling back to civilized habitations, caring at the same time for their wounded mate. The plane, Berisso said, was a complete loss. Berisso and Otero declared they had first experienced motor trouble about five hours after passing Paita, Peru, which is a little more than 1200 miles to the southwest of Guayaquil. The motor finally failed entirely, forcing the plane to crash in a dense jungle. By the merest good fortune, they declared, the ground which was not far from the Gayapa river, was marshy, breaking much of the force of their fall and undoubtedly saving their lives.

Bailey identified both men when the trial was held. Defense attorneys contended that Bailey’s testimony did not connect Dillon with the alleged exchange of money in the “games.” Bailey had identified Smith as the man “who sat in and handled the cash.” He also testified he saw Dillon coming in and out of the place and that cue evening Dillon “in his shirt sleeves relieved one of the man handling the money.” Paul Rhoadarmer, chief deputy prosecutor, asserted that Dillon’s ability to order men about the place showed that he was in command. Dillon has been arrested many times before, but according to Rhoadarmer. he has not been previously convicted in criminal court. U. L. Noll of 1140 I’ark avenue, today said that Elmer Ball, 25, arrested Sunday and charged with the robbery of the H. H. Updegraff pharmacy, 1627 West -Morris street, does not live at the Park avenue address, as police reports said.
