STOOD THE TEST.

American Armor Plate and Projectiles
OF Unsurpassed Excellence.
WASHINGTON, May 23.-The thickest
piece of armor ever manufactured in this
country was successfully tested at the
Indian Head proving grounds, Saturday.
It was one of the 14-inch nickel-steel
diagonal plates for the Indiana, the first
of the battleship armor plates COM
pleted by the Bethlehem iron works.
Twenty diagonal plates for the battle
ships Indiana and Massachusetts, aggre-
eating 800 tons, representing half a
million dollars in value, will at once be
accepted, as the result OF the test. The
result of the test clearly demonstrates
that American armor makers can sup
ply srmor plates of the highest quality.
The conditions were more severe than
the sestsaimposed by foreign countries.
Under the terms Of contract, pro-
jectile might get nearly through the
plate and backing, and yet be accepted
If no serious cracks were developed.
None of the three shots fred succeeded
in getting far enough into the plate to
show the backing. Three shots were
fired near the middle region of the plate.
The three points of impact form an
euuilateral triangle. All three shots
Iebounded, one of them back to the
muzzle of the gun, distance OF 1876
feet. The deepest penetration is four
teen inches; the other two, an inch or
two less. Only few slight cracks i'm.
mediately surrounding the burr of each
oritice was made.
A ten-inch gun WAS used in the test.
Two of the projectiles were imported.
The third was made by the same pro-
Gees in this country. The latter was
thrown out entirely uninjured, while
one Of the imported broke in two, thus
showing the splendid record for Amer
ican proiectiles as we'll as American
plate. The projectile weighed 500
pounds. The powder charge was 14O
pounds, giving striking velocity of 1410
feet.

AN INGENIOUS FORGERY.

Depew and Gorham Dispute the Genu-
ineness of the Grant Letter.
New York, May 23.-Chauncey M.
Depew, in an interview, declared his
frm belief that the alleged letter from
Grant to Conkling, made public at Co
lumbus, Ohio, in which the writer
argues against second or third term,
is an outrageous and ingenious forgery,
and he believes it will act as boom-
erang. Depew says he had an interview
with the man who arranged Conkling's
entire correspondence, and that letter
was not among them.
Hon. George G. Gorham, in letter to
the Sun, takes the same position, and
adds that he had the assurance from
Conkling himself after the convention of
1880 that he had not received q line
from Grant on the presidential nomina-
tion since his return from his trip around
the world,

VETERANS IN POLITICS.
An Ominous Soldiers Movement Started

An Ominous Soldiers Movement Started
in Syracuse, NY.
NEW York, May pa Syracuse
special says: A soldiers movement has
been started here which may have an
important influence on the politics of
the state. The plan is to organize vet
eran leagues all over the stste, give
them distinctive political character,
local as we'll as general. Grand Army
posts, as such, have nothing to do with
politics.
''The organization, said veteran.
twill be for mutual aid in politics; per-
haps in other directions. We shall or
ganize 90 we shall be in position to
assist our friends effectively whenever
the opportunity affords. The existing
county veterans league will be the basis
of the organization. There will be a
civic committee for every assembly dis
trict in the state; vice-commander for
every town and ward, and he will have
q staff of ten members"
The soldiers are hopeful of building
up powerful political machine.

A NATIONAL PARK.
While the territory within easy reach
