much suffering to the gun crew. who frequently
when In action bled copiousty at the mouth
ears and nose from the violent conclusion, not
only from fthe discharge of their pieces but
from the striking OF solid shot against the
turret walls.
Improvements in hydraulic recOil-cushIons
and compressed air cushions have rendered il
possible for gun crew in a turret to operate a
12-inch breech- loading rifle with less incon-
Venlence to themselves than to those of the
SDlDs crew In other parts OF the vessel.
The power OF rapid fre guns when focused on
given point OF attack is of course acknowl-
edged TO be almost irresistible, but the turrets
OF the Monterey are calculated TO be able to
Withstand such fire without any serious con-
sequences for an indefinite length OF time.
Then II must be remembered that TO cOncen-
trale the fire OF half dozen guns on an object
as small as turret Is an accomplishment
rather easier to be talk ed about than to be per-
formed.
1t has not been stated so officially but il Is
thought that full service charge of powder
will be used in the coming gun practice, which
Will enable the experts TO determine the exact
distance which 10 or IL inch shot can be
carried by Big Betsy or Alice. and the muZzle

MRS. NORTON'S TESTIMONY.
A New Witness Discovered by
the Defense.
WELSH TRIES ON THE MASK
An Engineers Heeliess Slippers.
More Testimony as to the Num-
Der of Shots Fired Is Given.

Yesterday was the most interesting day
so far in the suit of Mrs. McWhirter
against the insurance company. now on
trial before Judge Gilbert.
The first witness was Mrs. Meta Mel
son, nee Petersen, who was formerly Mrs.
McWhrter's servant-girl. She was asleep
in a room in the rear of the residence, the
window of which overlooked the yard
where McWhirter was found dying After
describing her movements during the day,
Mrs. Nelson said she retired about 9: 80
o'clock. Was awakened during the night
by noise. aud went to sleep to be awak-
eDed by shooting in the yard. Could not
see the back fence or anything else. Saw
no one run away and did not hear any
conversation between the shots. She then
described in broken English the scenes
enacted - Mrs. McWhirter's anguish at
finding her husband dying. She did not
see McWhirter tall, but admitted that on
two occasions. just after the killing, she
had told people she saw him fall. The
reason gwen for her change in testimony
was that she was very much excited then
and Is not now. and has reviewed The
events since.

MISS GADSBY'S SUIT.
A ach-of-Promise Case That Nav
Be Compromised.

According 10 Attorney Martin Stevens the
breach Of promise suit brought by Miss Phyllis
Gadsby OF Seventeenth street against Louis
ArguelIo will never come to trial.
Mr.. Arguello is wealthy resident of San
Jose who was married in that city last summer.
His attorney, L. NJ. Hoeffier of CARRIER, Boalt &
Bishop. applied yesterday for a change of venue
to Santa Clara County and also submitted a de-
murrer that the complaint did not set forth a
SUFFICIENT cause of action. The demurrer and
petition will be heard on Friday next.
LAS to the petition for a change OF venue
shall oppose 1t because my witnesses are all in
this city," said Mr. Stevens. 1--WE gave Mr.
Arguello several months to settle the matter
but he answered none of our letters and sup
posed he had left the State"
Mr.. Hoef11er merely smiled when asked as to
the chances OF the suit being compromised.
"Mr. Stevens thinks we will settle at his figure,
does he? Did he name the figure 2" aud the
attorney smiled again sarcasticaliy.

The harmony OF conflicting interests. After

Interior of One of the PASSAGES Turrets

IL inch rifles temporary covering was placed
over the turret tops, which shield Big Betsy
and her sister gun. These have been removed
aud steel top substituted. The turrets have
been covered with their protective armor and
all temporary braces, wedges and cross spinning
have been removed.
According TO the original design the vessel
was TO be supplied with conIcal turrets. that
shot might be detected and the power OF pene-
tratioD at the point OF shot aud armor gre atty
reduced. revision OF the plans was per-
mitted, in fact was advocated by the naval ex-
peTts, and the Monterey's turrets were con-
structed after the fashion of the sea-goipg
monitors of rebellion times.
The reason given for making the change Is
that owing to The immense size of the ten and
twelve inch rifles, when in action not enough
room was left back of the breech- block to ena-
bic the gun crew 10 load and fire with ease and
accuracy.
The hydraulic gear for revolving the turrets
has been tried and found to be In perfect work
