PLANE LAUNCHING FAILS
Navy Invention for Deck Use
Not Yet Perfected.

Annapolis, July 31.-Lleutenan; Gordon
6 ElIyson, OF the navy aviation corps,
this afternoon made an unsuccessful test
Of his invention for launching hydro
aercplancs from the decks Of battlesEips
nv means Of compressed air.
The trial was made from long dock,
and the machine made fight OF about
one hundred yards AZ height OF twenty
Ave yards. and then plunged into the
river. The planes were smashed, but
Lieutenant Ellyson was uninJured.
The necessity for mechanical start or
a hvdro-aeroplane from battleship
deck is due TO the fact that because OF
the limited area OF the deck an aeroplane
cannot gain sufficient momentum before
going into the air.

There are rumors that already some OF
the government forces have met With
severe check, and the feeling Is ex-
pressed in official circle. here that the
only salvation for General Sanjines liz TO
disregard the instructions from tho city
of Mexico TO press forward upon tho
rebels until he has received all the rein
forcements that he deems necessary to
insure the success OF his movement.

army OF Napoleon In crossing the Alps
were endured by the column of General
Sanjlnes in crossing the Sierra Madrcs.

sent 5000 TO Colonel Steever, acting COM
mander Of the Department of Texas, to-
day TO relieve American refugees at ri
Paso. The money will be used TO buy
rations. Two thousand tents have been
shipped to FL Paso from ST. Louis for dis
tribution along the border for the shelter
of the women and children.
Colonel Steever reported to the War De
partmcnt to-day that the rebels had
greatly augmented their power of resist
