solved ono Of tho most battling railway
murders in tho annals OF the poHco his

later, be faced BY another mystery OF
almost the Same kind But that 10 pro-
cisely what happened TO Colonel James
Fraser. chief Of police in London.
Thu crst case was tho Red Hand
Mystery" involving Franz Mueller tho
German who murdered Thomas BriEgs
and tho second hinged on the strange
disappearance OF John Gold. wealthy
merchant OF Brighton.
The Gold case was even more battling
than tho Mueller affair for tho mer-
chant apparently vanished from tho
train somewhere between London and
Preston Park. The fact that there had
been no stops en- route only added to
tho mystery. Gold had boarded the OK
press. There was no doubt OF that Tor
the guards had noticed him somewhere
between the Merstham and Balcomee
tunnels. But when the train pulled into
Preston Park there was no trace or MN
whatever. He had gone-vanished.
One OF the men in the same carriage
however told n story which the police at
first thought had a material bearing on
the case. Giving his name as Lamon
this passenger maintained that he had
been the victim OF an entirely unpro-
voked assault while tho train passing
through the Merstham tunnel. Some
one. he stated. fired a pistol and then,
before he could Offer any assistance he
was knocked over the head and did not
recover consciousness until the train
pulled into Preston Park.
Lannon's appearance appeared 70 bear
out his story. His head was cut and
swollen. There was n lump under one
eye and his clothing was diaarrayed. But

Steam Propulsion For
Airships Now Claimed

London. Aug. 15.-Invention Of .
system OF steam propulsion for air.
ships is claimed by Captain W. p. Ourtt
nail who was a British naval o6tosr
during the war, and up TO q year Ago
staff captain in tho chief mechanical
and electrical engineers department OF
the Royal Air Force. 1t Is meintatnsd
that the new system will function At
attitudes hitherto unattainable with ne
ordinary type OF internal combasttoA
engine.
The invention Is said to do away com
pletely with the ordinary boiler. the
steam being generated by means Of In
ternal combustion power or heat energy.
Tho superheated steam heat energy n
supplied to special steam I,otors which
are reversible and can be controlled
from a central control station.
Only heavy oil IL used as fuel. and II
Is claimed that the driving machinery
can be safely placed inside the frame
Of the airship instead OF in separate
gondolas outside. thus bringing S6oNt
q great reduction in air resistance and
consequently reducing the power re-
quired for propulsion. Tho engines or
steam motors" as Captain Burtnall
calls them. are Of the double-acting
type requiring no fly wheels.
