HALF-TON PROJECTILES FIRED FROM THE BIG
TIIIRTEEN-INCII GUN At INDIAN HEAD
Washington, April 12.-Naval ordnance officers
fred two shots from the big thirteen-lnch gun at
Indian Head proving grounds to-day. which
proved 10 their complete satisfaction that the
gun Is a magnificent weapon. probably unsur-
passed The occasion for firing the great rifle
to-day was To test the nickel steel projectiles.
each weighing more than half ton The target
was a twelve-inch nickel steel plate. and both
shells went entirely through 1t. one Of them
breaking to pieces. and the other remaining in
tact after II had cleared the plate.
The Carpenter shell was unhurt by the opera
ton Of rushing its half-tor mass through foot
Of solid steel. which is exactly what the
ordnance officials have been looking for
means OF testing the great seventeen-nch armor
for the battleships. To-day's tests We're there
fore only preliminary to the trials for the ac-
ceptance or condemnation Of the heaviest armor
plates yet made in this country.
In few days II is probable that the thirteen
inch gun will be aimed al the typical battleship
plates, and the results Will be anxlously
awaited by the Navy Department and the armor
contractors. After these tests the big guns
range will be tried by long shots down the
Potomac Rivei.

tor German and the rest OF the delegation to sub

Frank r Shaw for Collector Of Customs. and c.
Ridgely Goodwin for Surveyor OF Customs. 1t Is
said that Senator German is bitterly opposed to >
Davies Wareld who was nominated for Postmas-

others, who are his friends he will not be opposed
to confirmation. Barnes Compton Is the present
Member of Congress from the VIII Maryland dis

This the court held to be insufficient
grounds upon which to deprive the pc

ordered released. The prisoner was
tripping triumphantly from the court
room when the sleuths again descend
ed upon him and he was arrested upon
another warrant charging him with as

den.
Counsel for the petitioner character
lied this proceeding as gross contempt
of the court, and that the arrest was
upon a charge trumped up and intend
ed 70 defeat whatever rights the pris-
oner might have under the law.
Replying to this Mr.. Van Horne
called attention to the presence of the
city marshal of Ogden who would tes-
tify that the charge was upon an ac-
tual offense committed in that city
Judge Powers vigorously urged that
the second arrest was an act of con-
tempt, that it was sharp play, and
bore subterfuge under which to detain
his client.
The court gave warning at this juno
ture that in future such violence must
not be done the dignity of the court
by making an arrest directly in its
portals, but knew that on this occa-

On Tuesday afternoon the board OF
directors of the Provo Wooden Mills
company will decide upon the duration
of the run of the mills during the COM
ing season. There seems to be some
question as to the advisability of con-
tinuing operations beyond the time
when all of the orders have been filed,
but in view of the splendid trade which
the company is now securing through
the home industry agitation it is hard
ly to be expected that the directors
will order any curtailment of the run.
The buyers OF the company have just
finished the spring purchases of wool
and turned over to the executive Off
GERS contracts for the delivery Of 150,-
600 pounds of wool, purchased at prices
ranging from cents to cents. This
amount of material will keep the mills
supplied for seventy days or more.
The Deseret wooden mills are also be-
ing supplied with large stock of raw
material. The machinery at the fac
tory is being rapidly started UP, though
in sections, and within short time the
first cloth of the run will be turned
out

FIGHT FOR A BONANZA.
Perego's Persistent Effort to Secure
Receiver.

Attorney Jackson made another effort
to get his clients application for a re-
ceiver for the Silver King mine at Park
City yesterday but it went doVcl under
the preponderance of other matters up
on the calendar, Judge Merritt assur-
ing him, however, that il would secure
his attention at the earliest possible
moment. Upon the calendar it appears
under title OF VIM. Perego against w.
H. Dodge and others, and involves pos
session of one of the most productive
strips of ground upon the horizon Of
Utah. Perego, who is a carpenter who
pies his plane and hammer in Park
City while the bonanza for which he
has been fighting ever since 1889 has
been enriching the pockets of the de-
PENDANTS, sets up that he is the original
locator of the Silver King and that he
was fraudulently dispossessed. That by
some mysterious movement stakes were
foated in upon his location, and that
in this manner he was relieved of it.
The property, it is said, has been pro-
ductive of about So 00O.O 600, and notwith-
standing the condition of the ore mar
ket, continues to belch its riches into
the smelter furnace.

Work Commenced on the Salt Lake
Pressed Brick Company's Plant.
The Salt Lake Pressed Brick COM
pany has just let its contracts for the
construction of the down draft kiln,
and work upon the improvements has
commenced. It is expected that the
new plant will be in full operation by
the first of July. Its capacity is to be
$1,000 brick daily.
The outlook for the brick industry is
not as lattering as the producers could
desire and unless the city officials de-
eide to substitute brick for the con-
crete work in the completion of the
gravity sewer. but few of the plants
of this and Davis county will be in
operation. There are now but four
yards turning out brick, as. against ten
during the previous year Several of
the yards can be purchased cheap. The
brickmen are in hopes that the mem
bers of the city administration will see
the matter in its true light and decide
upon the use of home material, making
the sewer either two or three ringed
brick. 1t is agreed the two ringed con-
Struction would be cheaper than con-
crete, but the three ringed would cost
considerably more than the form of
construction adopted by the former city
council. They have, however, a strong
enemy IN the person of Chairman Do

WILL USE UTAH MATERIAL.
Culmer Brothers Have Manufactured
Telephone Conduit.

It has been practically decided by
the officers of the Rocky Mountain Bell
Telephone company that in the con-
struction of the underground system
about to be commenced conduits made
from Utah material shall be used.
For some time past the Culmers have
been experimenting with the products
of the properties of the Wasatch As
phaltum company and now feel con-
hdent that they have manufactured a
conduit which will be second to none
in the world. 1t is made of a combina-
ton of several of the products of as
phaltum and is said to be Z perfect
nonconductor of electricity. A four
foot section was made for an expert
ment and the greatest success crowned
the efforts of the gentlemen. The sec
ton was exhibited to the officers of the
Telephone company and their pleasure
was quite as great as that of the Gull
mers. The conduit embraced a number
of superintendent Murray's ideas and
small sections will be sent to the princi-
pal electrical engineers in the United
States with 3 request for an expression
of opinion upon the discovery. When
questioned regarding the probable
cheapness of the material when thrown
into competition with outside COMPOST
tons and inventions Harry Culmer
stated that he was of the opinion that
the Wasatch company could meet any
competition and produce a much more
desirable underground system.
