GUNS ON CARSFOR .
DEFENDING COAST
Scheme Evolved To Protect Our
Shores With Highly Mobile
Heavy Artillery

The problem Of how to mount giant
guns or howitzers on railroad trucks
and to transport them from port to
point along the American coasts,
where they can be put in action quick
~ to repel any attempt of hostile
force to effect landing in this coun-
try. is receiving the attention of the
United States army.
The railroads are already here, the
guns can be manufactured as rapidly
as needed, and there is every reason
to believe that the problem of design
ing and constructing q railroad fat
car strong enough TO transport
howitZer, and even to withstand the
terrific shock of the discharge of the
piece will be solved.
scheme Is Considered.
The New York Times has learned
on unquestionable authority that this
scheme Of creating great coast rail
way defense system which will pro
tect American seaboards from Maine
20 Mexico, and from San Diego to
the Canadian border, is now being
Considered by the military authorities.
It has been proved that an eight-inch
howitzer can be mounted on a heavy
steel fat car, and Furthermore, that
t can be operated from that car with,
out being remounted on concrete or
other emplacements in the GRAND,
avs the San Francisco Daily journal
of Commerce. The problem remaining
$ to find a car capable of outstanding
the discharge Of twelve-inch or four
teeninch CUR. '".
5 Employed In Europe.
1--WE have not the details at hand,
but we know that in Europe one of
he belligerents is using an eight-inch
gun that is mounted on a ear of some
hind,' said an army officer recently,
and there is no reason why we can
not do the same thing with a gun Of
the ten-inch, tweIve-inch, or even the
fourteen-inch type. The answer does
not seem to be so hard to find as you
might think"
An ordnance expert said the con-
struction problem was to take the
strain off the wheels of the car when
the gun was discharged, and also to
take up what he declared as the
Lateral thrust of the weapon The
force of the recoil, in the case of a
high angle gun of the howitzer type,
this officer explained, was downward
and sideways. o..
Getting Car Is Problem
ave know that we can devise a gun
and carriage which can be quickly
mounted with the aid of derrick car
on sites selected in advance" he con
tinued. 1.-THE problem now is to get a
car from which it will not be neces-
sary to transfer the gun. Keep the
gun on the car all the time, 50 that
if the enemy gets our range we car
shift it further north or south or in
any other direction desired, and then
open up on him from the new position
before he can correct his range. As
you see, the biggest part of the prob,
lem is the car. If we do get the ear,
you can rest assured that we will do
our utmost to keep the facts concern.

of Foreign and Domestic Commerce,

making his canvass of the ter

is that with proper shipping facilities
there would be an excellent market in

Seattle Men Interested
Reports received by the bureau from
Seattle indicate that there are inter

Men who are acting for responsible
transportation companies have been in

Seattle for the purpose, and business

the object of advancing the interests
of the port.
Extensive port improvements have
already been made, and there is exist
ing traffic from that district to the
Orient. The city has been making an
insistent demand, however, for more
ships, and the West Coast of South
America and Central America received
special attention. Portland companies
have informed the bureau that a line
covering that route could be maintain.

WAlLUKU EDITOR IS a. j. '..~
PLEASED WITH GUARD

WAILUKU, Maui, November 90
Editorially the Waikiki Times this
week praises highly the work OF Gen:
Samuel !. johnson, of the National
Guard of Hawaii, in raising the
strength of the organization to three
complete regiments. Editor Vetlesen
says: .
"His assignment to the command OF
the First Brigade as brigadier general
is therefore fully merited. No one
would have believed it possible some
mouths ago that such results could be
obtained. Sentiments and opinions have
undergone a complete metamOrphosis
since the military bill was killed in the
last Legislature.
1.-THE National Guard and any other
military movement was then both ridi-
culed and severely criticised as militar-
ism, as entirely useless and unnecessary
in peaceful little Hawaii"

Senator Otis H. Elkins and Col
Alex Koplin, the leading attorneys
for the defense of Clark Warren, OF
Abbeville, charged with the murder
of his wife, secured an acquittaI for
their client Friday in the Wilcox
Superior Court. The case was strong
ly contested by the States Attorney
Col. j. B. Wall, assisted by Coils
Land and Eaks of Cordele.
The State alleged that Warren
broke the neck of his wife, and in
troduced the examining physician,
who held the post mortem examina-
ton. The defense also introduced
expert testimony, several doc
tors averring that the supposed
break in the neck, the first joint,
could have been the natural cavity,
which is supposed to exist at that
point. The defense succeeding in
making the jury seeing it in that
light, and thus secured an acquittal.
The public sentiment was strong
ly inf1amed against the defendant
so that the court held him in custo.
dy in Jail until Saturday morning
when he left Abbeville on an early
train. Assisting Coils. Elkins and
Koplin were Coils. Hal Lawson and
Cannon.
