the question Of the increase during the past
two years in the number of residents of the
city in the government service by the compile
ton of the statistics Of the Blue Book for 1891
which has just been issued According to the
figures furnished by Mr.. Ames. WHO has charge
OF this publication, the total number of gov
ernment employees resident in the city at the
close of tine last fiscal year was 81 l4A Accord
ing to the same authority the Blue Book issued
in 1889 contained the names of only l6. 234 such
employees. On the face OF the returns the in
crease IN the number of government
employees during the past two years would
be $50. Mr.. Ames, however, explains
that the Blue Book of 1859 did not of course
give the names Of 2,710 persons employed in
the census Office. as that bureau was NOT then
in existence. Tho new Blue Book also contains
the names Of some !, 170 persons employed in
the navy yard Of this city, which were not In
cluded in the issue of that volume for 1889
There were other omissions in that publication
which have been supplied in the new Blue
Book Making due allowance for these and other
omissions = conservative estimate places the
increase In the number OF employees located in
this city ut about ], 500, . yearly increase for
the past two years Of some 200.

WASHINGTON, May %. The
thickest piece OF armor ever manu-.
featured In this country was success.
FULLY tested Mt Indian Head proving
grounds on Saturday. Ono was four.
teen inch nlcklc steel diagonal plates
for the "lndians." The fifst Of the
battle ship amor plates was completed
by the Bethlehem Iron Works. Twenty
diagonal plates for the battle ships
Indiana" and "hinschusettu," aggte-
eating 500 tons, representing half n
million dollarB in value Will ut once
be accepted as . result OF the test. The
result shows conclusively the ability
Of tho American armor makers to
supply plate OF the highest quality.
Tho conditions were more severe
than the tests imposed by foreign
countries. Under the terms OF the con-
tract the prcjectlle might 20 nearly
through plate anj backing and II
be accepted, II no serious cracks de.
vsloped. None OF the three shots fired
succeeded in getting far enough into
the plate 10 show the backing. Three
shots were fired near the middle RS.
gion OF the plate, the three pointa be-.
ing impact aud forming an equilateral
triangle. All three shots rehouuded,
one OF them back to the muzzle OF the
gun, u distance Of 1885 feet. The deep
est penetration was fourteen inches.
The other two were an inch or two lees.
There were only few slight cracks
Immediately surrounding the burr OF

was used In the test. Two OF the
projectiles were imported, tho third
was made In this country. Tho latter
was thrown out entirely uninjured
while one Of the imported broke Ii

day the prisoner asked Tor ptTmlssion
TO fend for counsel. His request wah
granted anu he soon held a consultn.

ONE YEAR IN TnE PEN"
That Il The Punishment Metsd Out TO
George A. Cozier Today.

George A. Cooler, the particulars Of
whose case are reported on our eighth
page, came before Judge Anderson ut
2;l5 this afternoon to receive sentence
on n conviction TOR adultery.
Prosecuting Attorney Varlan re-
minded the court Of the CIRCUMSTANCES
Of the case, including the defendanps
flight from justice, and moved that sem
t.nc. be pronounced without further
delay.
The defendants attorney, Mr.. Tat.
lock, remarked that since the de.
iepdant,s return from Denver some OF
his friends had become anxious that
an additional attorney should be en-
ployed on the motion (0f which notice
bad teen previously given) for new
trial. The defendant was now In
custody, In sale keeping, and would -
remain during the tendency Of the
motion. He therefore asked that ten-
tence lie POSTPONED. Asked who the
attorney 10 Wow was, Mr.. Tatlock re-
piled Judge Powers.
"rhen," sald the Judge, "why Is he
not her.?"
MIR. varlan said this had been n
most remarkable proceeding all the
way through. The defendant, after
his couvictioni and notice Of m)tio n
for q new trial had been given,
took leg bail, aud some time elapsed
before he was 70 arrested. Now another
attempt was made TO impede the coufse
Of justice. Judge Powers knew noth.
ing particular about the case, Ani he
objected to the administration Of jus
tlce being DELAYED and subverted n
this way merely 20 satisfy the wi II
and pleasure OF any counsel. III q
asked that the defendant be sentenced
now.
Judge Anderson said that ample
time had, la his opinion, been given
already, ana he saw no reason Tor n
further postponement. He overrulcd
the motion Of the defendants attorney.
Cooler was then requested 10 stand
up, and the Judge said he had had n
full and lair trial, and had been ably
| defended.
Questioned M TO what he had TO say
why sentence should not be- passed
upon him, Cozler simply answered
with smile-"Nothing."
The Judge said the defendant had
| Dcen kuilty OF y ulott uhsfaus oueh-'
and read him = sharp lecture on the
sanctity OF the marriage vow,
which he had grossly violated.
since the defendants escape from GUS
tody he had received n letter from his

years, OF high reputation and standing

70 them this was sore trial.
II was to him 1.-THE Judge) a
matter OF very serious concern
what punishment he should innict In
this case, the law fixing tho sentence
nj not more than three years and not
less than one. He ordered him TO be
kept In tn. penitentiary for ono year
