Lieutenant stone a Witness Before
the Investigation Committee.
WASHINGTON, July 25.- Lieutenant
Charles A. Stone. for three years Ord
nance officer, for the Carnegie Company,
was witness in the armor-plate investi-
CATION to-day. When asked for the re-
suits of the recent Government trials Of
plates, he replied that the top halves of
the first two plates failed by narrow
margin of the requirements for obtain
ing premium, while the lower halves
failed by wide margin. In the case of the
third plate, the top half secured prem
ium, and the bottom half failed. The
bottom half was generally considered the
better piece.
The Lieutenant had been on the retired
list since December, he said, and had
been employed by the Carnegie Company
three years, drawing pay from the Gov
ernment and from the Carnegie Company
both until he was placed on the retired
list.

do anything for the Government in that
line?'

test was valuable as 2 guide taken in con-
nection with the ballastic test. Regard
ing the plates, he said that the opinion
was gaining ground that nickel-steel ar
NOR required no treatment and was as
