Plan Balloon Trip.
Signal Corps Men Will Fly from Washington to Mississippi Valley Soon.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-A balloon trip from Washington to the Mississippi Valley is being planned by the Signal Corps. The ascension will be made from the gas works here about May 1. Provisions will be taken along for a three or four days' trip. Leo Stevens, a well-known New York aeronaut, is now making the balloon, which will be the largest the Signal Corps has ever used.
Captain Charles de F. Chandler will be in charge of the airship during the voyage. He will be accompanied by Stevens and three Signal Corps men.

M'Coy To Try For Lahm Cup in April
Aero Club of America Pilot to Compete With Hawley in St. Louis.
Lieut. Lahm Invited To Witness Races.
Two Balloon Ascensions for Next Month Attracting Wide Interest.
J. C. McCoy, of New York, pilot of the entry of the Aero Club of America in the international balloon races to take place from St. Louis next October, has written to James E. Smith, president of the Business Men's League, that he will be in St. Louis the latter part of April to try for the Lahm Cup. He will bring his own balloon, "America."
He will be in St. Louis at the same time A. R. Hawley, of New York, pilot of the St. Louis entry, makes his effort to capture the Lahm Cup. This will give St. Louis two balloon ascensions in April by pilots who will have charge of entries in the aeronautic event of the year. Mr. McCoy is at present with his family at their cottage, The Kirkwood, at Camden, S. C.
In order to win the Lahm Cup, Mr. McCoy must exceed the distance traveled by Lieutenant Frank P. Lahm in winning the James Gordon Bennett Cup in the international balloon race last year, which started from Paris, France. This distance was 402 miles. The trial will have to be made under the rules of the Aero Club of America.
In his letter to Mr. Smith, Mr. McCoy said that he was very anxious to win the cup and would make every effort to do so.
Lieutenant Lahm Invited.
In order to make the trials of McCoy and Hawley for the cup the more interesting, the Aero Club of St. Louis has sent an invitation to Lieutenant Lahm to be here at the time of the trials. Lieutenant Lahm has recently been ordered to Fort Leavenworth, Kas., in charge of the balloon squad of the Signal Corps of the army. He has not yet signified his intention to be in St. Louis at that time.
Hawley's intention to make a trial for the Lahm Cup was conveyed to Secretary Kearney of the Aero Club of St. Louis, in a letter from Albert Bond Lambert, prior to his departure for Paris. The announcement of Hawley's coming for this purpose was exclusively made in The Republic on March 12.
James E. Smith, president of the Business Men's League and member of the Aero Club of St. Louis, returned from New York last Sunday. While in the Eastern city he attended the dinner of the Aero Club of America at Hotel St. Regis. Like L. D. Dozler, he said yesterday that the entire eastern section of the United States was taking the keenest interest in the international balloon race here next October, also in the April trials. Most of the larger cities, he said, would be represented by large parties.
