new GUN TO HURL
5TONS zoo MILES
Noiseless Weapon, Perfectly
Controlled, Also Can Drive
n Rivets Under Water -.
MODEL LIKE AIR HAMMER
BY the Associated Press

New York, July 8.-Scientists and
inventors today discussed the remark
able qualities Of a new gun which DR..
Miller Reese Hutchinson, former chief
engineer for Thomas A. Edison. claims
may be developed to hurl projectile
Of five tons from two hundred to three
hundred miles. It's velocity, he de-
clared, ranges from one to fve miles a
second.
The noise II made at demonstration
yesterday sounded much like the click
Of a cash register, though only minia-
ture weapon, with an eight inch barrel,
was used. It's projectile may be stopped
in a sheet Of steel with the precision
Of a trolley car.
The gun is the invention Of John
Temple, an Englishman who developed
the idea in this country.
The demonstra tion, held In the
presence Of scientists and newspaper
men, was, curiously enough, held in
DR.. Hutchinsons Office on the fifty
first floor of the Woolworth Building.
The testing grounds consisted of box
of sand on the floor Of the Office, over
which was placed a sheet of steel three
quarters Of an inch thick.
Could Rivet Updersca
Pointing the gun. downward toward
the fifty offices filled with people be-
meath him, DR.. Hutchinson discharged
the weapon and the cash register click
vas heard. In the sheet of steel there
was lodged projectile three inches
long and one half inch in diameter. The
ends stuck out on either side of the
steel.
DIR. Hutchinson explained that tho
tail end Of the projcctile was threaded
ond serves the purpose Of bolt. This
feature. he declared, could be used in
bolting a plate over hole in the hull
of a leaking ship at sea.
DR.. Hutchinson said a demonstrn
ton wes held recently in the New York
Navy Yard Of the practicability of deep
sea riveting with the gun. A diver
won't thirty FIVE feet below the sur
face and fired shot. The diver re-
charged as he said there had been
no percussion and no recoil. He was
shown the plate of the ship he hal
fired into, however. and later a pres
sure of eight tons wns required TO force
the projectile from it's place.
No Waste OF Powder
The demonstration gun used ~by DR..
Hutchinson had a velocity of one mile
a. second. He declared the high power
rifles now in vogue obtain their velocity
through the use Of small proJectiles,
long barrels and about three times as
much powder rs Is used in the new
weapon.
The principle of burning the pow =
der, which does not permit waste, be-
co. thn 70 "a IN
has been applied in the gun, DR..
Hutchinson explained, rs he showed
many other things which to the lay
mind were as unintelligible ms lecture
in higher mathematics would be to the
average lad Of ten.
The elimination of loud report, he
said, was obtained by confinement OF
the expanding gases to the chamber
from which the prpjcctile emanated.
The weapon rcsemblcd the nozzle of u
rheumatic hammer.

For the moment the prisoner con-
trolled his own destiny.
Then the patrolman's pleadings began
to influence him. Finally, he turned
and faced Kineavey, and with tears In
his eyes, he began his dangerous trip
back to the cellroom window.
When he reached the window and
grasped one of the rails Of the grating,
three City Hall guards hurried forward
intent on grabbing him.
''Let the man alone" said Kineavey,
and they did.
The prisoner climbed back over the
window grating. and was again placed
In his cell. He was weak from the
strain and sank on his bunk.
Scheeler was later arraigned before
Magistrate Mecleary and held in $500
hail for a further hearing next Tues
day. He told the Magistrate his home
was on Tenth street near Green.
Asher testified that Scheeler offered
to sell him any part of a box of silk
neckties at twenty FIVE cents each. The
neckties were worth So each, the de-
tective said.
