War Is not numbered among even the least of his dcslroa "War Is Insnnlty , " ho says. "Men who make war arc crazy. There Is never need for It any more. No question can arise w'great that It cannot bo oattlod peaceably nnd honor ably by arbitration. War Is Insanity. " That Is unquestionably Edison's heartfelt belief , sayo the Now York Sun. Neverthe less , slnco President Cleveland's epoch ! mes- Mge to congress sounded Uio tocsin on De cember 17 , there have bean floating around vague statements of what Edison would defer for the defenses of his country In case Eng land nnd the Utilted Statoj actually got to fighting Thcro was lalk of wonderful en gines pf destruction of the like of which no man over heard before , and of a contrivance of sbmarlne cables for torpedo u e , and oven of streams of water charged with elec tricity. TheM things read like bold , glar ing fakes , the work * of pome chap with a particularly vivid Imagination , who had been rr-ldlng about the adventures of Mark Twain's Connecticut Yankee In King Arthur's court. Now , It Is nlwayii wise , when you hear talk of such preposterous Imporslbllltlea , as you .aro likely to call thcs3 things at first thought , to Biipeml Judgment of disbelief until you have had time for Investigation. The time hsn gone by when It Is safe to deny recklessly the possibility of what Edlron says he can accomplish. Ho has a wjy of , coming up omlllng after the unbelievers have demon strated to their comp'ets satisfaction the fool- Iji'mess of his propositions , and knocking them down and out wjth the Ice-covered fact of accomplishment. Considering the e things , n Sun man wont out to Ellson's laboratorj it Menlo Park the other day to talk about w-r and warlike machines with the Ingenious electrician , Ho was busy. Ho was working on a phonograph. HP had been trying for four teen months to nnko a phonograph that would reproduce the music of a piano with out a tin pan and snare drum accompani ment. He has Just succeeded , and wjs glory ing In the success , finishing up the last de tails. This thing was fully occupying his time , but he dropped everything and talked for an hcur or more about the most terrible contrivances of offense and defense. Somewhere Edison road once that some firemen at work on a building whore there wore a lot of electric wlrea overhead were rather severely ii'iocked. The stream from ona of the lines of IIOEO hit ono of the wires Th2 heavy ciirrert iMkcd from the wires and ran down thesstream , shocking tie nozzle men. "I hadn't thought ) of that before , " Edison said to the Sun man , "so I tried It with an Induction collinnd a cat. It worked all rlfiht. That wivs ths last of the cat. " When Edison began to think about ap pliances useful , In war ho thought of that stream of watjr. . TJho dlfllciilty of throwing a stream of winter any considerable distance precludes the rpos } blllty of Its use as a means of nttncjt , but for defensive purposes , Edison says , It Is absolute against certain forms of atta9k. He has devised a fluid which , because of Its greater viscosity , can bp propelled In a olld stream through n nozzle a much greater dlstinca than water. "Suppose jou , were defending an entrench ment , breastworks , "and sort of fortifications , against a charge , . Yon take a lot of little ' ! r-.7e,3 ! , throwing j > lreims liss than half mi inch In dlamsttr. I can throw such a stream with a fluid of my own preparation at least COO feet I wouldn't stand In front of It at 1.000 feet You can charge tint fluid with 5,000 volts and It will kill on the instant of contact. A one-horse power cnglno will furnish all the power ncdud It takes power to produce amperage , hut it' " voltage that kills , nnd that Is easily pro- di'csd The boiler and dynamo could be lugged around in a one-hoiso wagon. All 5011 need besides-Is a powerful pump. TaKc half a do/en nozlcs arrnngeJ on swivels and tlio attacking force couldn't get near > our fortification' . It would be perfectly easy to place the d > name and machinery underground , where artillery couldn't pos sibly injure them. Why. that thine Is absolute. " "You apparently have no doubt whatever about the killing properties of electricity " < ald the Sun man. "Kill ? Why , I killed a dog out hereIn ono ten-thlusamlth pirt of n second. " "How did you measure the time ? " EdKon laughed. Then , with a Jerk of his thumb toward the celling , he "aid- "RlBsed n walght up tho--e. Wo know ho\v fast a weight falls by the simple attraction of gravity We put a brass cale beside the w < Jght. The turning on of the- current tint Hilled tlic- dog jpleised the weight and It began to fall. Shutting off the current ar rested the weight again. The current was turi'M on and off as quickly as possible The dog was der.d and the wolglit had fallen two ono-hund'cths of an Inch It took It fns ten-thousandth of n second to do tli-t That's the time. It took to kill the dog" " Then Mr. Edlsnn switched off from means of defense and lalKol about ways of destroj- rc the enemy. "Hid jou ever BCD a life-saving crew shoot t life lino" he asked. "U'ell. Just enlarge tie ! application of that Idea. I oiUflttel an arctic expedition onto with telephones. Thes hnl twenty-six mllps of wire and ono man co'ild carry It Now oven a wire ay simll as tint cnn be charged with such a current tint It will kill on contact.

The heavy cell of wire could no doubt 1 > hurlud teveial miles When It struck.Jhe myriad folds of the coil would spread over an enormous area , twist- liiK and turning In and out and catching OBorca of men where a I'hell ' would pass harm- Irasly Ly Hut there Is something woreoand this device Is one of which Edison Is Mirest. It Involves snfcSSsful aerial navigation , but tint la not considered a hindrance by him , "All the olhor i fc-llnus who are trjlng that. " lie oaysr " "aro working on the wrong track. Maxim has tried It and pan't mike it work. He's CTO the wrong notion. I'm net going to tell you what the right liloa Is but I think I knpvc. I have niide a good many experiments , and I'm sure I've got my base prlnclple.fj\fttr you pet that It's only a question of development of details. " This terrible Instrument of destruction which Mr. Edison contemplates la an aerial torpedo. It can ba made to rlie by Its own energy , and It will propel lUelf through the air. It will trav l at a height of about a mile , and for ten miles at least , Mr. Killi'in thlnku liv can control Its flight. It is passible that In a developed stage he can control Its flight for A greater distance. It can b'e so arranged before It Is started that It shall dciceni } after traveling any desired distance not greater than ten miles , aud It can be so contrived that the charge of gelatine , dynamite , or whatever high ux- ploaivo In used , can bo exploded by the lin- pict of collision or by a time fine. It can cirry an enormous charge of high explosive and would do tremendous execution. Mr. FUlson cites the Inability of the Germans to hit the French lulloons In tbo Franco- Prussian war as an evidence tint his aer'al torpejo could not be destroyed when In use on land by the gum of the enemy. When In use on the sea l would bo equally safrv on Ins to the Inability of the gunners to eloi v te their heavy ordnance enough to throw hella a mlle Into the Air Besides , It would require a higher development of the gunner's art than has yet been attained , even by the crack marksmen of the Royal Arthur , to hit ono of these Jorpodoos with a shell whllo It was sailing through the air. K r tise In coast defense work these torpo- doss would supplement every Known device. Their great advantage over the big pneu matic guns or the mortar bnttcrleii at Sandy Hook lies In their very much greater range. They could bo sot off In fleets , If necessary or advisable , and In that manner would cover more territory by ono discharge than several mortar batteries , because of tbo Rteater effect of the explosion. It would not be nccesoiry actually to hit a ship to de stroy It. If the torpedo sttuck the water within 100 feet or so of the object at which It wan aimed the CJncusvlon would blow It out of the sej. Fired by a system of charts such as the army officers have airnnged for the gunners of the mortar battery at Sandy Hook , these aerial torpedoes would bo terribly effective. The objorvcro up on the Highlands , can- stantly plotting the course of the advancing shlpi of the enemy , could notify the- torpedo Bunnors of the position on the chart which any ship would occupy at any given Instant. The exact time of flight of the torpedo would be known to the gunner , nnd ho could lot go c flock cf torpedoes at such time that one of them would surely end -tho career of the ship.For For work on land , In the bombardment of a city or fortifications , or against an en camped or Intrenched enemy , thcso torpedoes would bo destructive beyond the capability of man to determine. Hut , besides these tcrpodces , Edison line another device which , nUhautJi not BO deadly In Us upeiatlon , Is jot n tcrrlBlo engine of war. It Is a gun which will use dynamite as n propulsive force. All efforts heretofore to build such a big gun have failed because the dynamite explodes so rapidly nnd liberates Its tre mendous bursting energy In so little time that no gun has been able to withstand the uhock of the explosion. Edison thinks ho can get around this. "Suppcee , " ho says , "that the explosion of a charge of dynamlto In the chamber of an ordinary gun produces a pressure of 00,000 pounds to the squira IncJi. The gun cannot cianu it , ami as a tesuit U ulowa up. Now , suppoea you shrink around the bli ; gun an other with a chamber which extends clear around the Insldo gun. In this chamber place a charge which , when exploded , will produce a prcssuie of 25,000 pounds to the oquaro Inch. Explode both charges simul taneously. The lateral pressure of the 25- 000 pound charge , acting against the outside of the chamber of the big Inside gun , neu tralizes half of the 50,000-pound lateral pres sure of the charge of the big Insldo gun. Then If n third gun Is constructed outside of the second one , built to lire a charge pro ducing 12,500 pounds pressure per square Inch , that will take up half the outward pressure on the middle gun. By continuing tliu operation you make a gun which Is ab solutely safe and which will usa a charge of d > namlto In the propulsion of ordinary pro. Jectlles which will be of tremendous force. It Is possible fcr such a gun to throw such projectiles as those now In use twenty miles or mote. Uefote such guns , mounted at Sandy Hook ab the pneumatic gnno and the disappearing guns are mounted now , the most powerful fleet all the navies of the world could get together In combination could not make a demonstration against Now i urn. oucn guns are practical possibilities , and they make the question of our nea coast defenses very simple. " Then Mr. Edison got back to the defensive again , and ho talked about the protection of harbors by torpedoes. It would be very simple , be said to construct torpedo de fenses for New York , or any other harbor , for that matter. It can bo done quickly and at little cost. Accurate nnd careful surveys of all the Important harbors on the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards are In the possession of the government engineers. They Know the depth of0water , the location of bars , and the character of the bottom Taking New York harbor as an Illustration , he s-ild : "Suppose you stretch an endless cable from Rockaway over toward Long Branch Put It further out If that doesn't keep thp enemies' ships far enough away ; make it frpm Flro Island to Spring Lake If necessary. Sink this cable to the bottom and work it around wheels Just as the bridge cable Is vvoibcd , so .It can be moved forward and bac ! : . ' Insulate It so that It can be charged with electricity. Then attach torpedoes to It every 200 feet or so , as near together as Is necessary to make the thing sure nnd ef fective. Thebci torpedoes will stand on end In the water and can be built so that they will rise to the sutfaco as soon as they are freed from the cable The pressure of the water on the diaphragm keeps the circuit broken. When the torpedo Is released from iho cable it rises to the surface. As It rises tha piesburo on the diaphragm decreases If the torpedo rises under a ship the force of the Impact sets It off and blo\.s the ship out of water. But If It misses the ship It goes off when It reaches the surface. b - causs the pressure OH the diaphragm being removed , tlio clicuit would bs completed just , as ir uy impact. "Now , by having a long string of these torpedoes on a movable cable It would be posslbla to hit any ship that tried to get In. Tha operator of the cable , at his Inland ob servatory watching the ships , calculates their position with his range finder. He knows where his torpedoes are , and at the proper time ho pushes the button and frees two or three of them. The result Is the destruction of the ship. If It should be thought possible for a ship lo get by one- such cable It would bo easy enough to have mora than ono. The coast could be lined with them , and the protection of the city would be absolute. Torpedo catchers would not be effective against such a defense , because - cause If thny began grappling for the cable > ho first touch of their grappling irons would notify the operator. All ho would have tn do wniilil be to free a couple of tor | > 2does. That \voi > 'd bo the end of the torpedo catcher. It wouldn't bo necessaiy to lilt him with nno of them They would be sure to ex- jiluda somewhere near him nnd ho couldn't , unil the concussion. "But theio Isn't going to bo any war , " con- tliiuol Sir. Edison. "If there Is , and Eng land fights those fellows on the other tide , she'll whip them , any ono of them or all of them put together. She's the greatest nation on the globe except America. She's the worku'iop of the world , the machine shop of the earth. They can't beat her. " "But how about her commerce ? " aDkoJ the Sun man. "They can't destroy It , " answered Mr. Edl- ron. rney iion't Know now. America Is the only nation that can do that. We are the only people who make prlvatecranen. There never was a successful privateer who wasn't an American. "Yes , there are a lot of other scheme ? for killing men that 1'vo thought about slnco this tiling began , " ho &ald a moment later , "but what's the use of talking about them ?

Something now In the science of electricity Is about to bo made public In Houston , To * . , as the result of the study and research of a well known citizen. Major A. J. Swanson , formerly vlco presi dent and geneial manager of the Houston & Texas Central Railway company , and later holding the same position on the "Cotton nelt" railroad , has always been an enthusi astic student of the i.atural sciences , and particularly of applied electrical science. Of late years , relates a correspondent of the Globe-Democrat , he has given his chief at tention to the f.tudy of electricity In Its practical uses , end to chemistry In the branches Immediately connected tnercwltu. As Is not uncommon , the wonderful dis covery here related was brought about through an attempt to adapt well known and understood principles and appliances to a new uso. In his experience as a railway manager M.- . Swanson has often obsjrved that train men were frequently subjected to such ex posure In storm and cold as to render them Incapable of performing their duties. This suggested the Idea that perhaps some means might bo found by which , through a net work of small wires enveloping the body , a current of electricity could bo made to gene rate sufficient heat to counteract the coldest temperature. That this could be done , pro vided a person were stationary , was obvious , because It Is well known that a wlro can bo heated to any desired degree by an electric current , and the smaller the wire the less the current required ; but how to apply such a current to a prson moving about was the question , and that problem he set himself to solve , working patiently at It as bis numer ous duties would permit. - Since his retirement from acthe railroad labors ho has nad more leisure , and has pursued his scientific studies as much for recreation as otherwise ; always giving his paiticular attention to the subject In ques tion. During his Investigations and experiments , reasoning from the fact that a reversal of the polarity of "an electrical current re verses Us mechanical force , the Idea oc curred that , possibly , by homo hitherto un known means the thermic effect might also bo changed , In some similar manner , if the secret of how to do It could only bo dis covered , and this secret ho sot himself fo find out. After tedious labors that secret he has found , and that Is tlio now principle which ho has discovered and Is about to gl\o to the world. He says , too , that once known , It Is so plain and simple that the only wonder Is that It was not discovered long ago. The reversal Is so complete that an clectilc current used to cook a beefsteak can , In n moment , bs reverse 1 and made to freeze a can of Ice cream. This the writer has seen demonstrated with a small model. The wonderful possibilities attainable through the application of tills newly discovered principle are too obvious to need commenter or explanation. ELECTRIC OVERCOATS. Out Major Swanson did not stop at this ; ho was determined to solve his original problem If It could be dono. It can bo read ily understood that a current of electricity can only bo applied to an Irrcgulaiiy moving body by means of some source of power that moves with that body , and the only known means of that character Is a storage battery. But all forms of storage batteries hitherto kno\\n are too cumbersome and weighty to ba berne about by the human body , except for trifling effects , and some light and compact form was essential for his purpose. As aluminum has by far the least speclllc gravity of any known metal , he commenced his experiments with that substance . As everybody Knows , aluminum docs not oxydlzo under ordinary conditions and It resists Ibs action of most acids , hut by careful experiment Major Swanson dis coverer that under certain conditions It can bo reduced to a nitrous oxide , in the form of a fine powder , which possesses a much greater electrical potential than any material heretofore used In storage batteries , one- twentieth In quantity producing more than tlirea times the volume of electricity with a slightly greater ratio of Increased In- tonslty. He has also obtained an alloy of aluminum of the specific gravity of only 4.3 , which can ho made- Into sheets as thin as very thin paper , and of such flexibility and tenacity that It can bo rolled , unrollol and rerollcd again and again without InJury - Jury , In the same manner and with as little hicakag ? cr crackago as a Hlicet of ordinary wilting paper. This alloy gives much more satisfactory results than the shoot lead or dinarily used for the purpose. The sheet of alloy Is almply covered with a thin coatIng - Ing of the powder , n thin sheet of oiled silk , for Insulation , Is laid upon It , the whole rolled together and tlio battery la complete ; all that remains to be done la to charge It. Ho has also devised a garment through which fl'xiblo wires , such as may bo seen In any largj telegraph olllce , are run. To this a small storage battery , which can bo worn without Inconvenience , in attached ; the current can thnn be applied , onveloplng the whole body with heat ; or , by reversing It , a refrigerating effect can bo produced , The strength of the current can be gradu ated to any degree , thus adapting It to any kind of weather , hot cr cold. A small battery - tory , wolgh'ng not inoro than a pound , made to flt the body In the form of a belt , and not a "lilt more Inconvenient , will lant twenty-four hours , with as strong a current ao can be needed In any kind of weather. 1'lieie bitterlos can bo detached and re charged as often as deslrc-d , without any diminution of the'r strength. When ono U detached another can be attached In Its place. Ho hail not yet been able to procure Just such wlro as Is best adapted to his purpose , but has ordered a supply specially manufac tured , suitable for the desired u o. Ho esti mates that complete vestment * , with three storage batteries , cm ba furnished at retail at , a cast not exceeding $2C , and the batteries can be- recharged at a trifling cost. With cuch an outfit a man could defy both ex tremes of temperature. Major Swanson hag with htm a full ex- Ptrlmoiital suit , with battery attached , inado for himself , which ho Invited the correspond ent to put on , and though a flt for a U-footer , weighing 230 pounds , was rather extensive for one of C feet C Inches , weighing but HO pouuda , the teat wag sufficient to demonstrate nil that la claimed for the In vention. Hy properly rcgulnllns ( ho current , It could bo made as warm or cool as desired. Pel exactly at blood heat , one- would never know the changes of temperature. The d'scovorlcs of this now principle of electricity and of an Improved form of storage battery nrp bound to work ft revolution In more mat ters and thing * tlun one ein enslly Imagine. A mm can discard his overcoat and go about his business In comfort In the coldest weather , while the moil Intense' heat of sum mer can bo tempered to delicious coolness. Sheets of the same material will tender ono's plumbers pleasant In a northern winter or at the torrid rene , HEATINO Oil COOL1NO CARS. Captain M 0. Howe , vice president and general minnger of the Houston , Kast and West , Texas Railroad company , nnd an In- t'mato ' friend of MHjor Swanson , has already perfected an Inv'entlui for use In cars , both freight and passenger , by MIMIIS o ! which they can bo wannixl in winter or made as cool as dolred In summer. A email dynomo Is operated by the movement of the car when In motion , whtli > n atoi'go battery , charged from the same source , furnishes the neces sary electrical current when the car Is at rest. rest.This now storage battery can bo employed to much greitcr advantage wherever the present form la In use , while It can bo used for hundreds of purpo e.s for which the old form Is unsu'tcd. Its light weight and com pactness will pimhlo street car comirtntaa to do away with the trolley wlro nnd run tholr earn by storage batteries alone ; with It the motor wagon Is an assured success , as also the motor cycle , whllo sowing machines , etc. , can be supplied with the Mine motive power. Another thing of Importance Is the cost ut the materials for this new battery. Major Snamran estimates that the nltrous- oxldu powder can be manufactured at n cost of not more than $2 per pound , and the metal plates at not exceeding $1 per pound , which , In bulk , IK less than the cost of the load and Its oxides , ELECTRICAL RESONANCE. The promise of novel and Interesting ex periments Illustrative of electrical resonnnco was fnlfllUd by I'rof. M. I. Pupln of Co lumbia college In Ills lecture before the de- paitmont of electricity of the Hroklyn Insti tute In the Art building last night , reporti the Urooklyn Eagle. In opening his talk I'rcf. Pupln said that wo know the electric current simply by Its effects of Its real natuic we are Ignorant , Its effects nro heat , Induced magnetism and chemical change. "If we consider the laws that govern electric currents we find that they bear an exact analogy to the laws governing mechanical forces , " he tald. Three elements must al- VVHJS be reckoned with In mechanical motion. These are friction , Inertia reaction and elas ticity reaction. Turning to electrical action wo are confronted In the same way with the law of electrical resistance reaction , the law of magnetic Inertia reaction and the law of electro clastic resistance reaction. Kor every phenomenon of mechanics we have a corresponding phenomenon In electricity. "For the evening , " said Prof. Pupln , "lot UD confine ourselves to the analogy between sound vibrations and electrical vibrations. It Is well known that piano wires will respond spend to the notes of the voice with whoso pitch they are In unison. It you sing the right note Into a bottle of n particular slzo and shape the bottle will sing It back to you. A small sounding body can start a very much larger body Into violent vibration pro vided the small body has been tuned to the same pitch as the large one. The reason Is simple. The vlbiatlons being of the same wave length , the sound wave finds no diffi culty In communicating Itself to a medium where It cm travel unchecked The pitch of a sounding body depends on Its mass and the stiffness of the body. Electrical resonance rests on a similar principle. Every electric circuit has a period. The period Is the time required for a current to pass around the circuit , reverse Itself and start again. Now , if we adjust the period of the olectrlc-motlvo force which we em ploy to the period of our circuit , wo will bo able with a small current to set up a power ful electric vibration. " At this point Prof. Pupin called the at tention of the audience to a number of cir cuits arranged by means of wires and cells upon the platform. They were connected with a telephone receiver , In which the electrical vibrations of the circuit set up musical vibrations varying In Intensity. Al tbo start the periods of a given circuit and cut rent were made dissimilar. The sound issuing from the receiver sank nlmotit to a whisper. The periods were made to coincide nnd the vibrations changel their character , becoming violent and powerful , whllo a mighty blast of sound deafened one's eara. Tlio experiment was then tried another way. The room was darl ened and the circuit con nected with a lighting apparatus. When ths periods differed , the light was dim ; when inpde coincident there was a strong and glailng illumination.

The pagans wore wont always to make sacrifices to tholr gods bforo entering on the battle and Chrlstlnnu have Imitated them In appealing to the divine support. One of- the earliest records In lii tory of a prayer before battle Is that of Chllderlc , king of Gaul , a pagan , who , before - fore going Into the battle of Zuelplch , some 400 years after Christ , prayed to the God ot the Chrlutlani' ' La help him to victory. His too was Attlla , king of the Huns , and Chllderlc vowed If God would glvo him the victory ho would embrace the Christian faith , aiyo the Now York Herald. King Gustavus AdoVhtm of Sweden , In the thirty years' war , knelt on the battlefield of Luetzen (1G32) ( ) before the beginning of the conflict. The prayer of the Hungarian of ficer , before one of the battles fought for the Independence of Hungary In 1S4U , was as follows : "I will not nolc Tlioo , Ixird , to help us , and I know Thou wilt not help the AuBtralns , but If Thou wilt sit on yonder hill Thou shall not bo ashamed of Thy children. " This wjo the prayer of the "Klghtlng Dlsliop" Leslie before ono of the battles fought In Ireland : "O God , for our unworthl- ness wo are not flt to claim Thy help , but If wo are bad our enemies. ' are wcr.io , and If thou seost not meet lo help us , wo pray Theo help them not , but stand Thou neuter on this day , and leave It to the arm of the flesh. " The ono offered before the battle of Rdgo Hill by Sir Jacob Aftley wan ; "Thou knowest , 0 Lord , that I rim 11 lie very buiy this diy , and It I fcrget Thee , forget Thou not me , " nnd then the command followed , "March on , boys ! " As King ICdward advanced with lib column to Hannockburn , ho remarked to his aids , joclng the Scotch on their kneus ; "See , they kneel. The robola are asking pardon. " D'Umphravlllo was heard to re mark : "Yes , but U Is to tha King of King * . Thcso men conquer or dlo on this field.
