A WONDERFUL INVENTION. IF INVENTOR’S PROMISES FULFILLED. ' . Captain .Mark Goliusky, a United States inventor, lias returned to Now York after Having spent several years in Europe studying sh ipbualdinfj;. Golinsky declares that the new typo of ship he has invented as tho .result of his studies will revolutionise the form of sea fighting vessels, and enable the construction of great liners th:ft will make the. trip from New York to Liverpool in four days. The Russian Go. vornment have ordered the construction ol a wars trio on his plan, and are preparing to dose deals for further constructions. Charles M. Schwab is among the American financiers i who are actively interested in the scheme, especially in’regard to the building of fast linens. ‘‘ Vessels are now built with their great beams amidohips,” said Goliusky. “ That means the vessel must encounter great resistance from the bow clear to the run. On a lonig ship Hfce oar ocean liners that resastanoe is tremendous. My invention has the great beam below the water line, which increases the’speed of tho ship marvellously.” The enthusiastic inventor goes so far as to say that the new sohem© will eliminate the roll and pitch of the .vessel, and do away with sea-siclcness. It will ho done this way ; Four lateral offsets, one on each side near the Ik»w, and two more similarly placed near the stern, will each contain a propeller, pointing obliquely outward tow awls the stern. The driving direction of these propellers will give the ship a lifting power that will enable it to ride, the waves when headed to the wind, and will also overcome the roll when the wind is blowing across the bow. The inventor asserted that his tyno of battleship will be able to make rapid turns, and to come to almost an instant stop when near full speed. THE DIRECT STEAMERS.
