New York, May 23.-Hudson
Maxim announced to-day that he had
invented and perfected device
which will make ships immune from
the dangers of the submarine. Hc
said that torpedoes, even when fired
at close range and striking their tar
gets would explode harmless against
the hulls Of their intended victims.
The inventor made the announce
ment at 4 luncheon given in Brook
lyn. He asserted that the invention
soon will be demonstrated by the
government, which already had been
advised Of the details.
''The invention is practical for
every type of vessel" he said. "It
Lan be applied within few moments
at comparatively cheap price to the
hulls Of ships already constructed.
The only change necessary in vessels
already built will be slight en-
largement in their beans. My device
is Of solid material and encircles the
entire ship from the bow to the stern.
