Heavy Cannonading
WASHINGTON. July 14.-Further tests of
American armor-plate were made at Anna
polls proving ground last Saturday with
gratifying results. Two three-inch all-steel
plates were prepared by Carnegie, with sur
faces treated by the new Harvey process.
TO give the process a complete test, under
better conditions than heretofore realized,
the plates were made with less carbon in
their composition than the three plates
tested some months ago. The official report
has not yet been received. but the officers
say the plates satisfactorily resisted tho
shots fired from sx-pound Hotchkiss
rife. which is considered a severe test.
The projectiles were of superior quality,
capable OF penetrating under ordinary cir
cumstances four inches OF ordinary steel
Only surface sears were made by the pro-
jectIles, which were all broken to fragments
and no cracks were made in the plates
The Ordnance Department will now turn
their attention to securing projectiles that
can do something besides scratch armor.
They have given orders for trial of pro-
lectileS with blunt heads.
