FIELD OF FUTURE

Army Officer Discusses Posi-.
biitieS of AeropIane.
COULD DESTROY A NATION.

BY Dropping Incendiary Mixture Fly
ing Machine Could Duplicate San
Francisco Fire After Circling Two or
Three Times Above City.
Believing firmly that the field of fu
ture war operations will be at least
partly in the air, the heads of the
United States army are looking into
the matter of trying out the aeroplane
as an offensive weapon. According to
Major George o. Squier, president of
the army aeronautical board, the aero
plane at the present rate of construc-
ton and art of manipulation will be
capable of flying at the rate Of 100
miles an hour within two years. Lieu
tenant Foulois. who accompanied Or
vile Wright in his five mile straight
away dash from Fort Myer to Alex
andria. Va, and return, says that at
ore time the aeroplane was 800 feet
i'm the air.
Since that fight Orvile Wright has
attained n height Of 1,5o0 feet in Ger
many. Fouois declares that Wright
coud have flown four times as high as
he did at Fort Myer if he had cared
| to do so.
Dropping Explosives From the Air.
IL was SUI gesied to Major Squier
| that with the improved capacity of the
Wright machine to soar in the air
practically at the will of the aviator
the aeroplanes may be made to carry
| explosives for offensive purposes. to
| be dropped on cities or warships.
| at will hardly be explosives" said
| Major Suuier that will constitute the
really dangerous weapon of the aero
| plane. 1t will use what we term in

| tanning PHOSPHORUS and other chenic
ais which ignite readily on contact
| with the air Destruction by fire rath
| err than by explosion will be the rea
war work of the flying machines.
really believe that in two years or per
| haps a little longer we will have aero
| planes that can fly at the rate of ion
miles per hour, and the dirigibles will
probably be making seventy or seven
ty-five.
"An aeropIane armed with hundred
pounds of the strongest of these In
cendiary mixtures could duplicate thu
San Francisco fire by circling two o.
three times around a city. The de
struction which they could wreak at ;
total expense Of $4,000. including th'
aeroplane. would surpass that of ;
bombardment by the biggest battle

Terrible to Contemplate.
"Army officers have not talked o
this aspect of the possibilities in pub
lie The talk is rather 'scary,' bu
there is no exaggeration in saying tina
the value of the aeroplane as fight
ing force to be reckoned with in tn
wars of the future is something tel
r!b!e TO contemplate.
What may be done with the dirig

locked out of their regular meeting

pitch.
one evening last week when they
important session, they found a large
paddock barring the door. and were
forced 10 hold their meeting elsewhere.
Last night they were again locked out
and second complaint has been filed

Engineer w. l. Clarke, who holds
the key to the hall, refused to give ii
Up without an order from one of the
trustees. The firemen said that the
action of the trustees in closing the
hail against them arose over a contro-
versy some time ago regarding the
condition in which the hall was left
after the volunteers held a smoker.
The trustees alleged that the firemen
did not leave the place in good order.
while the firemen retorted that il was
as clean as when they entered it,
AS the firemen contributed their time
and labor free in building the hall. they
felt offended at the action of the trust
oes in forbidding them TO hold their

in their attitude the matter will be
placed before the civic committee
which acts as a check upon the actions

MILITARY CLUbMfN
SEEK A NEW HOME
Members of Army and Navy
Fail to Agree on Palace
Hotel Rooms

The question OF the future home of
the Army and Navy club was discussed
Friday night at meeting in which 100
members took a lively interest.
Colonel Pippy was anxious to have
the club located downtown in the new
Palace hotel, but his ideas did not
meet with the general approval, so the
Palace hotel location was sidetracked.
The site which appealed to the ma
jority of the members most was the
Swain building in O'Farrell street, op-
posite the Orpheum theater. The two
top floors have been offered to the
club and this would fill the require
ments so far as accommodations are
concerned.
Several other downtown places have
been considered, but no decision will
be reached until the neN meeting.
