HUDSON MAXIM FINDS
LONG RANGE POSSIBLE
Inventor Thinks 1t Unnecessary for
Projcctilc Teaching Paris to BE
Driven by prOpClIcr.

NEW YORK, March 2i.-IIudson
Maxim: the Inventor, declared in Il
statement issued to-day regarding the
bombardment of Paris by the new Ger
man cannon, that IL is entirely possible
to secure range of over sixty miles
with gun. but that there is nothing
new in the idea
Il understand that the projcctile is
practically of nine-inch caliber." said
MIR. Maxim. with nine-inch gun
from forty to fifty feet in length. and
with maximum elevation Of forty
five degrees. Il projcctilc may he thrown
tc' distance of more than twenty
miles.
Now ii we double the calibcr of the
gun. we duadruple the area OF the base
of the projectile. II we were TO max
gun OF cighteen-inch calibcr and
shoot nine-inch projectile from that
we would have four times the propel-
ling energy on tho base of the she'll
during the entire Night CT the pro-
jcctilc through the bore OF the gun.
1T would be perfectly possible to
employ a gun for such purpose of
twcnty-inch caliber throwing a subcali-
Der projectilc OF nine inches. Then we
would have Il good deal more than four
times the area upon which the powder
gases would push against the projcc-
tile. There Is nothing new in this idea
OF subcaliber projectilc. Subcal!ber
projccties were used in the tifteen-
inch Zalinski dynamite gun in order to
get greater range.
with gun of twcntr-inch calibcr
made from eighty 20 100 feet long 1t
would be perfectly possible TO &c, the
maximum range attributed to the Ger
mans. The gun would probably be
what is generally designated as a
knock down Eun-one shipped to the
firing line in sections and erected in
place. The gun. however, would be so
long that II would not support itself
without dropping. 1t would have to
be supported by an external structure
The mounting of the gun would be
somewhat Of Il bridge builders job.
coRDrrE COMPOSITION WOULD
BE REST POWDER
The best kind of powder charge
for such n gun would he corditc
composition consisting of about 30
per cen; nitroglyccrin and 80 per cent
guncottcn.
This gun. when fred at a maximum
elevation Of fortyhvc degrees. would
throw the projcctiie above most OF the
atmosphere of the earth. SO that at
least half of the travel of tho projcc-
tile would be through a partial vacuum,
and the total resistance which the pro-
jcctile would encounter in. say, sixty
miles. would not be more than il would
be in thirty miles If the projcctile were
passing through atmosphere as dense
as it is at the carths surface.
81 understand II is rumorcd the pro-
jcctiles now reaching Paris are partly
driven by propeller during night Ii
/ this is fact the Germans arc accom-
plishing the result by IL method not
so simple or rs good as that which
! have Indicated. for the flight of the
proiectile would neither he as accura 70
nor as sure as il the proicctile should
