The practice of forestry has been

EvSPy Resolution Introduced by Sena-

Washington. Feb. 26.-That the
shooting ARRAY at Brownsville, Tex, on
the night of Aug. 1914, 1906, was done
by some OF the negro soldiers Of the
Twenty-flfth United States infantry,
and that the testimony taken before
the senate committee on military af-
fairs fails to Identify the guilty par
ties. is the opinion OF eight members
OF the committee. Four-members OF
the committee voted against this de-
cision and one member did not vote.
The resolution declaring the guilt
Of the negroes was submitted by Sen
ator Lodge and was adopted after five
resolutions by Senator Foraker, one by
Senator Dupont and one by Senator
Scott, all of which were offered as sub.
stitutes. had been voted down.
The vote Tuesday was reached after
prolonged investigation, extending
over two sessions of congress. and ev-
idence had been taken covering thou
gro of the three companies of infan-
try. dishonorably discharged by Presi-
dent Roosevelt testified in his own
behalf. while evidence In support of
he president was given by many army
officers and citizens of Brownsville.
Throughout the entire controversy.
which in many sections of the country
had been made a political issue, the
anti-adminlstration fight has been d.
rected by Senator Foraker. In the
final vote in the committee majority
OF the republican members came to
his support. The Ohio senator ex-
pressed himself as gratified at this, as
# was apparent from the outset that
all of the democratic members were
convinced that the negroes did the
shooting.
The fight will be carried to the
floor of the senate. The reports of the
committee will not be made for about
ten days, as Senator Warner Of Mis-
souri,, who conducted the examination
OF witnesses on behalf of the admins
tration, will be absent from Washing
ton for that period
Action by the committee, therefore,
will be postponed until his return. Aft
er the reports have been made to the
senate it is expected that Senator
Foraker will press the matter to-
vote there. II he should secure the
same proportion of the republican
members OF the senate as he had in
the committee, the vote will he closer
than has been anticipated

MAKES SILENT GUN
NEW MAXIM FIREARM MAY Me-
cEssiTATE REISSUE or ARMS.
AUTO STUDY GAVE HIM HIS IDEA
piston Valve, Which Allows Gases to
Escape Gradually, Prevents
Explosions.

Washington, Feb. ga patent for
silent firearm" has Just been grant
ed to Hiram Percy Maxim of Hart
ford, Conn, son of Sir Hiram Maxim,
inventor OF the machine gun that
bears his name.
The patent covers twenty-three
claims, the device being designed to
render the discharge of a gun or re-
volver practically noiseless. Broadly.
the principle involved is similar to
that made use of in the automobile
mufler. the noise of discharge being
prevented through the action of
transverse-acting piston valve, which
allows the gas to escape gradually.
The silencing arrangement can be
applied to the barrel of the ordinary
f1rearm. In -, the invention would
be OF value t8skirmishers, who could
work along the line OF an enemy and
silence picket without giving any
indication of their position.
The possibility, combined with the
use OF smokeless powder, introduces a
new factor upon the stage of warfare.
The silent frearm," so military ex-
perts assert, may lead to entire re-
equipment OF the armies of the world
An important feature is the ability
to use standard ammunition. Ordinary
gun powder and ordinary lead bullets
may be used, or the new steel-cored
bullet and smokeless powder.
