MR ULM AT DUBLIN.

READY FOR ATLANTIC FLIGHT. CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS. (Received July 27, 11.55 p.m.) LONDON, July 27. Mr C. T. P. Ulm, in the aeroplane Faith in Australia, has arrived at Dublin, Favourable weather reports led him to hurry through the lastminute difficulties and to leave Heston. His friends slept in the open on a hot, cloudless night in order to bid farewell to the aviators, who are confident of success. Mr Ulm declared that he would not go on the Atlantic flight if it were dangerous. He had made sure of everything, and knew the position of all ships crossing the Atlantic in the next 36 hours, and carried flares. His wife in Sydney realised that the venture was safe. Mr G. U. Allan spent the night reading a book on airships and Atlantic crossings. Captain P. G. Taylor, Mr Allan, and a British wireless operator, Mr J. Edwards, make up the crew. FLIGHT POSTPONED. (Received July 28, 1.55 a.m.) DUBLIN, July 27. Mr Ulm's flight has been postponed. His aeroplane slipped while being wheeled off some planks and a strut was broken.
