tertainment such as was given early on
Saturday morning than a private draw

The highest velocities and lowest pres

In krupp gun a short time ago.
Splendid results were also recently OBJ
tanned by the French with a new smoke

with the success OF these powders that
negotiations were at once made for
samples for experiment In this country.
The French samples will be tried in
the new 5.2-ineh siege guns and the Ger
man in s and l0-inch guns. As near as
can be judged from the data received
the ordnance officials say that all the OBJ
jections which have hitherto existed with
the various brands of smokeless powder

powder particularly is pronounced per

said to be perfectly indifferent TO damp
