2 AERIAL TORPEDO BOAT PROJECTED Rear Admiral Fiske Invents Device for Oarrying Big Bomb by Giant Aeroplane. | RADIO WAVES DIRECT COURSE| WASHINGTON, July aerial torpedo boat for ships in protected harbors is pro- jected in patents just issued, it was| learned today, to Rear Admiral| Bradley A. Fiske, now attached to the navy war college, but former ald for operations to Secretary Daniels. The plan contemplates equipping| a monster aeroplane, similar to a number now under 22.—An| attack on| construction in this country for the British govern- ment, with a Whitehead torpedo of regu'ation navy type. 8wooping down at a distance of five #ea miles from the object of attack, the alr araft would drop its deadly passenger into the water just as it would have been launched from a destroyer. The Impact sets the torpedo’s machinery into motion and it is off at a speed of more than forty knots an hour toward the enemy ships Admiral Fiske belleves that the flying torpedo boat would make it possible to | attack u fleet even within a land locked harbor. T range of the newest navy torpedoes Is 10,000 ards and even (Hfl{ older types will be effective at 7,000 yards Carrled on & huge areoplane, the 2,000- pound weapon would be taken over har- hor defenses at an altitude safe from gun Lire, Once over the bay, the machine would giide down to within ten or twenty feet of the water, the torpedo rudders would be set and it would be dropped to 10 its work while the aeroplane rose and sped away Aecroplancs to carry a welght have been perfected by several countrios, Russia is said to have several that wilj carry twenty men and the new British air craft will have a similar capacity, It is sald to be possible that a type of radio-controlled torpedo might be em- ployed, one meroplane carrying the tor- pedo and another the wireless machinery to control the missil's flight through the wator. It s pointed out that Admirel Fiske secured patents on such a method of control in 1900 when he was lleutenant commander in the navy. They are sald 1o be so broad and far reaching as to underiie all submarine subsequent de- velopment of radio control devices. “My invention,” says the application filed by Lieutenant Commander Fiske before the buttie of Manila was fought, “is especially applicable to automobile torpedoos and makes it possible to con- irel the movements of a torpedo with greal certalaty from ashore, from the dock on a ship. Bince the acrial torptdo plan was ad- vanced, reports have stated that Ger- ongineers .were at work with a somewhat similar scheme, It is proposed to Arop from acroplanes a torpedo that | can be guided by radlo Impulses during | ity fall and sent with absoulte certainty to its mark.

Eliminating the stroke against Riga, the operations in Poland occupy a front of roughly 800 miles, divisible into three principal areas—the first along the Nurew, north and west of Warsaw; the second, the center on the Vistula, tween Warsaw and Ivangorod; the third, in the vieinity of Lublin, where the Aus trians and Germans are flghting for the checked the Germans at the gates of Warsaw last fall and drove them back within eleven miles of Lublin, so it should now hold them, Colncldent with dispatches from Russia aying the spirit of the army is unbroken and the bellef In ultimate victory |Is strong, comes the report that the feeling Is growing that Russla is doing more than its share In the war, bearing at present almost the entire burden. These complaints, according to special corre- spondents, are not confined to the rank and file.

Later it was announced that Sheriff Kinkead asked for troops and companies from Newark and Redbank were ex- pected soon to be on the scene, as all preparations had been made for a call. Sheriff Kinkead's call was made direct to the governor by telephone and later | he dispatched a written order. In a stgte- | ment regarding his call for troops, Sheriff | Kinkead sald “I telephoned to the governor that it was necessary to call the militla. The men are not amenable to reason.

The effect is to increase the collection and delivery allowance b cents for each shipment and to reduce the rall terminal allowance at the rate of one-twentleth of 1 cent a pound. As the welght increases the | G-cent Increase is gradually reduced, so that on shipments of more than 100 pounds the readjustment will not make any change. Substantially, no com- modity ri will be affected. In all events, any change in the rates will, with few exceptions, be substantially lower than those prevalling when the commis- slon established the zone system in Feb- | ruary, 1914, By that means, the express companies are expected to increase thelr gross reve- nues about 3.8 per cent. The commis-| slon’s report shows that the net oper-| ating revenues of the four big com- panies have decreased to a deficit of $1,132811 In the year 1914-1915, and In the same period operating Income decreased $2,449,863, “While the financial condition of cer- tain of the petitioners is more favorable than that of others,” says the report, “it clearly appears that as a whole they are operating at a losa" The commission declined to change the | basts of rates in zone No. 1, the terri- tory east of the Mississippl and north | of the Ohlo rivers. — Lodge Fight at Sidney.
