of making an appropriatlonlJo help pay tho

written to the governor to that effect of
ferlng at tho samo time to attend said
extra session without pay There being
no constitutional warrant for tho suggested

A BALLOON PLAN
Captain John W Phillips an attorney pt
this city formerly connected with tho
United States war and Interior depart-
ments at Washington has mentioned a
plan for aerial warfare hy dirigible tor-
pedo balloons Ho has spent sotno ttmo in
Inventing aud developing tho plans and
ho claims that It Is a practical scheme and
should bo adopted by tho war depirtmeut
In u letter to Adjutant Ueucril Mabry to-
day explaining tho plan Captain Phillips
says
In a short time and at small cost tnu
United States can bo made Invulnerable
from tho attack of any navy no matter
how Btrong This can bo necouipllshcd by
arranging dlrlgtble torpedo balloons to bi
flown in series ot two or more connected
with each other by long cables and each
being michorcd al different points on land
By this plan of conneollng tho balloons to
gcthcr but at great distance from each
other and separately anchored to different
steamers loatcd at such points apart as
may be Indicated by w nd currents one of
tho aeronauts can with absolute accuracy
guide his car over tho desired point and
maintain it there as long ns required Theid
balloons can be raised anywhere and at
any tlmo by tho smoke of tho steamers
and the Inttcr by their great spaed power
can run away when threatened with at-
tack Aided by tho darkness of nlcht tho
enemys strongholds can be approached
mid blown to atoms with but little danger
to the occupnnts of tho balloons Hy con-
structing tho balloons of numerous gas cells
tho danger ot ttem being pierced and
ruined by tho enemys shot will bo minim-
ized and can bo wholly avoided by flying
tho balloons above gun range while tho
aeronaut from one ot Ujo balloons remains
suspended in a Vshnpcd shot proof stool
basket or car attached by block nnd Ucklo
lo ropo to balloon By lowering himself to
proper eleyatlon he can with accuracy hurl
explosives upon tho enemys ships or ports
while ho remains secure from harm In his
armored car and his balloon above tbo
clouds is beyond tho possibility ofpuncturo
by guns below
