going Government tests in the royal dock
yard of Copenhagen. The apparatus, which
is extremely simple, and costs but little, con
ssts of glass reservoir, filled with powder,
floating a; certain depth, where, by very
simple chemical means, it produces an ex'
pIosion. In the first experiment, when
loaded with small charge, the effect was
amazing. The framework of the gnnboat
used was shattered. and some of the panks
thrown to the height of 80 or 100 feet. On
a second trial the explosion threw up coli
umn of water 100 feet high, and the shock
was felt at a considerable distance.
