THE ARMOR PLATE TEST.
The Result of the Days work Yes
terday.

10y
terday.
The armor plate-tests Of which an ac-
count was given In last evenings CARR
tai was continued until q late hour in
the afternoon. The test Is the most sat
isfactory one ever made, the le Creusot
plates, OF all steel and nickel, proving the
most successful, showing greater power
of resistance. All the officials express
ed themselves highly gratified at the re-
suit. A further test will be made on
Monday. In summing up the result of
the days test, the Baltimore Sun gives
the following :
The tests show that not only did the
all steel and nickel-steel plates furnish
the most complete resistance 10 the pro-
Jectiles, but that the damage TO them ia
each instance was local, except Ia so far
as each shot fired into q plate tends TO
weaken il to Q degree by iessening the
amount OF contiguous strength about the
point where the next shot is fired 10 the
case of the compound plate, however.
each shot seemed to effect the whole OF
the plate, and II Is thought that when the
eight inch gun Is fired at 1t on Monday
IL will not furnish much more resistance
than would plate of wrought iron of
the same thickness. This plate seems to
have been about equally as good as the
Cammell plate, tested at Portsmouth,
England, In May. In that case the plate
was not broken up and was only com
pletely perforated by tie fifth shot,
which lodged 10 the backing In that
case, however. the test was not so severe
as the initial velocity was but 1876 feet
per second, and the range was 80 yards
instead of 80 feet. Another difference
was that at Portsmouth, two of the shots
were with Pallaiser chilled iron shots.
which were broken on the face of the
plate.
There ia some difference of opinion as
to which OF the Schneider plates will
stand the 8-inch shot better on Monday.
While the nickcl-steel had slightly the
best OF the contest yesterday, the repre-
sentatives OF the Schneiders are inclined
to think the All-steel plate will stand the
final test better. The nickel-steel plate
has shown itself to be very good. howev-
er, and one OF the results OF this test will
be that further experiments with plates
Of this type will be made.
The representatives of the Cammell
plate-Messrs. Bisphan, of New York,
and FL. III. Hodges, of Sheffield were
much disappointed ct the result OF the
trial. Mr.. Bisphan said last evening
that he considered the test perfectly fair
in every respect. He thought 1t was by
far the most severe test ever given armor
plates In any country, but each plate had
been tested exactly alike. The behavior
of the Cammell plate was great surprise
to him.
Mr.. w. FL. Jaques, of the Bethlehem
Iron Works, was much elated by the sue
cess Of the Schneider plates as for many
90 In he ha
was a strong advocate Of all-steel plates.
Secretary Tracy expressed himself as
highly pleased with the result Of the trial,
which shows that America has adopted
the best type Of the armor plating.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WAsntsoros, u g.. Aprl 70, 1880
Saturday was gala day Sin
Washington made in honor of the
Pan-Amerioans. The day was a
perfect one for street pageantry,
and the government showed the
members of this International
American congress some speci-
mems Of the United States soldier
as he appears in the regular SER
vice and in the national guard, in
the infantry, cavalry and artillery.
The streets were alive with mar
hal music and bodies of blue cloth
clad and russell leggincl soldie rs,
and a great crowd of people at
tempted to see the review OF the
troops made by the president and
cabinet together with the Pam
American delegations. A rather
poetic and pretty incident Of the
affair was the presentation TO each
country represented in the confe r
ence Of an American flag made of
American woven silk.
This conference, by the way,
which has been in session here
for so many months discussing the
spread Of commerce., the march OF
progress and liberty on the wes-
tern continent and Kindred inter
national subjects, expects to
conclude its labors on the 18th in
slant That is the day fixed for
the delegation, TO start on their
tour through the southern states.
Among important reports 20 its
committees that have been sub
mitted to the International Ameri-
can conference and adopted by it,
is one that recommends that re-
ciprocity treaties be negotiated he
tween the several republics Of the
American hemisphere, each max
ing tariff concessions, so that the
peculiar products of all Of them
may be introduced free into the
others This report is in the same
line as the amendment suggested
by Secretary Blaine to the com
mittee on ways and means to the
house Of representatives.
The committee of the conference
on banking thinks that commerce
could be greatly extended by ia
direct exchanges be-
tween the money markets Of the
countries represented in the con-
ference. IL may not be generally +
realized that United States mer- /
chants who import goods from
South and Central America make +
.hesc importations almost entirely /
through the use Of English bank (
srs' credits. Therefore the COM I
nittee suggests the passage BIZ the

In giving the colored citizens a
high school couacill an elephant
upon their hands. To give them
such a school at this time was
not altogether wise on the part
Of our legislators, yet the
circumstances were such that it
could not well be helped. So
many promises had been made to
those citizens by both parties that
they became clamorous and de-
manded the fulfllment Of at least
the promise Of the school. And
now that the government built and
furnished the house and made pro-
visions for the officers necessary to
run it, it is not attended. Why {?
Because very few Of the colored
citizens are able to pay the board
Of their children at such an insti-
tuition. Consequently the attend
ance was so small-only two stu
dents-the board of education or
dered the school to be disconiin-
ued. Soon the establishing Of that
school will be looked upon as
waste Of money and it may be
used in the next campaign, each
party laying the blame on the
shoulders Of the other. That.
however, viii be wrong. Both
parties gave their votes for it and
gave them freely. Moreover, it is
not a waste Of money. The build
ing will stand, and as soon as more
Of the colored people are able TO
pay the board Of their children the
school will open again. Then,
too, it was well 10 show the color
ed citizens that the Cherokees IL
blood wished to give them every
advantage they could and treat
them as real citizens.
