aATHMANN's TORPEDO GUN

One OF the latest devices for coast de-
tense is an aerial and sub aquatic torpedo
invented by Louis Gathmann, a mechan-
ical engineer OF Chicago, who has sub
mitted plans OF his invention to tn
Secretary OF the Navy, claiming that
isthe most powerful weapon OF war
the day. He further says, in a letter ad
dressed TO the Secretary, that the man,
smoothbore guns now In possession @
the United States could be utilized N
connection with his invention, as thls
out OF date ordnance could readily anC
easily be converted into a useful and
powerful weapon for the navy or harbor
coast defence.
lie wants the Secretary to give orders
for the manufacture OF number OF III
torpedoes and have them tested by ex-
perts.
One great point of advantage Mr.. Gath
mann claims for his torpedo is that even
merchant vessels might be armed with it.
and either attack or resist men Of war
with success, as blows with this missile
VIII, he says, destroy an armor clad as
easily as avessel of commerce.
Mr.. Gathmann says he has made on the
range at Fort Sheridan, H., tests which
he found satisfactory. In his tests he
used torpedoes up to ten feet in length.
He maintains that a 12-inch torpedo Of
his construction will carry $50 pounds
several miles with great accuracy of aim.
The illustration shows piece of ord
nance for starting the torpedo and Civ
ing ii the desired direction. The torpe-
do is loaded in from the muzzle, while
the cannon might be breech loaded for
the powder charge as well. On striking
the water before reaching the mark at
which it was aimed the torpedo, IL SO de-
sired, would travel under water in order
to come in contact with a ship at its
weakest point.
to the torpedo by the powder charge in
the cannon in the usual manner, but
further propelling power is concealed
within the rear of the torpedo. Its ap-
plication and secrets will only be con-
veyed to the representative of the gov
ernment purchasing the invention.
The wings on the upper part OF the tor
pedo, as illustrated, are inclined upward
and slightly toward the front. They are
intended to uphold the projectile in its
flight through the air, tending to coun-
teract gravitation by the air pressure be-
meath.
In the first moments after discharge,
when going at high speed, the torpedo
will rise slightly, but will then take q
straight course until the speed slackens.
When the torpedo reaches the water the
wings will uphold it and retain it near
the surface, and, even il it's gravity is
several times that of the water il dis
places, il will sink only when it's motion
ceases-that is, it will sink only W hen its
propelling power is completely ex xhausted; !;
therefore, Mr.. Gathmann says torpedo Of
this construction has a great range and
hi~h need.

Suit to Recover n Life Insurance Policy
Given as Security.
In the Supreme Court this morning the
case brought by ShubailS. Howes against
Augustus III. Preston ct al was heard.
This is a case which is full of technical
tiles. brought about by the insolvency of
the plaintiff ana his efforts to get upon
his feet again. 1t seems that Messrs.
Brown q Munroe, produce dealers in
this city had bill against Howes, which
bill Preston, upon receipt of the life
insurance policy from Howes, guaranteed
the payment of. Prior to this guaranty
Br wn and Monroe had attached the in
terest of Howes in the firm of Parsons
and Howes, aud IL is claimed by the re.
spondents that Howes made representa-.
tlons TO Br yn and Munroe to the effect
that he had property in Massachusetts,
and wanted them To sign papers purport-
ing to establish their claim TO this prop
erty, when they iuld command divi-
dend from it, aud thus release the
guaranty OF Preston TO the ill, and II owes
could uncover his insurance policy. 1t
appears that the papers which were
signed by Mr.. Brown we're no what they
purported TO be, bat papers which had
the effect OF releasing the attachment,
and Howes, who claimed n residence in
Massachusetts was discharged by the
Massachuss etts Court Of Insolvency. He
then brought action To recover the insur-
ance policy.
Howes denies that he made false repre-
sentations To Brown but that the transac-
tion was enactel by o. her parties
The court ook the papers and held the
matter for advisement
