NEW WAR IMPLEMENT. 271 SOS y,un 31,7 Silas Coyno Would Destroy People by Explosives. Chicago, Nov. 9. Silas J. Coyne, a carpenter, has Invented a new imple ment of waifnre. The device consists of a series of kites, supporting a cable, upon which a "trn!ley' kite lainaac to travel. The trolley kite ctfrrtes n bomb or high explosive power, which is automatically released. By means of specially const! ucted kites, of which Mr. Coyne Is tho Inventor, he claims to be able to support a cable nearly seven miles in length by using a num ber of the kites in tandem. The traveling kite will support a weight of more than twenty pounds. It feeds automatically upon releasing the bomb and returns of Its own weight. Successful practical tests are said to have been made of the kites. PETITIONS IN BANKRUPTCY. government was quite prepared to mobollzc a eecond army corps.
