anywhere and added that if no one else had
the right to represent the Republicans
he was ready To quit the Republican party
as well as the earth. The two ca candidates
then hurled charges of race dsloyalty at
each other. spectator took Carson's
side and this made the confusion worse
confounded.
The meeting was held in Mount Zion
Church. on Twelfth and + Streets in the
Twenty first district, and was attended by
Republican politicians from all of, the
districts The men who are candidates to
represent the Republicans in the national
convention were invited to be present; so

Report on the Explosion of the Canet

Report on the Explosion of the Canet
Gun.
Gen. Flagler, chief of ordnance, has re-
ceived the report of Lieut. Col. F. H.
Parker. who was detailed to visit the
Sandy Hook proving ground for the pur-
pose of investigating the explosion of the
Canet gun on the 2Sth of last month, re-
sulting in the killing of two priyates and
the wounding of three soldiers.
The gun had been fired "a times pre-
vious to the day of the accident. When
the explosion occurred the gun was being
tested for accuracy and rapidity. De-
fective lenth and shape of the breech-pin,
it is said, caused the accident.
Col. Parker suggests that hereafter, as
rapid-fire guns are extremely dangerous,
inventors be required to do their own
firing. or have it done by their agents, in
experimental tests.
