SHUT THEM ALL OUT.

Representatives OF Foreign Governments
Cannot Witness American Experiments.
Washington, d. c., May 2l.-At
nearly all The tests at Indian Head and
other places where experiments are
conducted upon armor shells and guns,
officers OF foreign navies and armies
have been admitted Objection has
been made to this by both branches OF
the service, on the ground that the
United States is eXpending many mil
lions in making war materials and
that foreign governments have been en-
abled to procure information concern
ing these materials without expense.
1t has also been pointed out that
foreign governments are in the habit
of guarding very jealousy their own
experiments of this kind. so as to pre-
vent other nations from profting at
their expense. Last week for the first
time the Navy Department adopted
new rule. The ordnance officers were
making some most interesting expert
ments to determine the question as TO
whether d bursting shell could be shot
through an armOr plate representing
the sides OF one of the best Of the mod.
ern battleships, and second just what
the effects of the bursting Of such a
shell would have on the interior Of
ship, after penetrating as shown by its
explosion in a chamber specially pre-
pared to represent the armor closed
sides OF a ship. AS usual, applica-
tions were made by the military at
taches of the French and German en-
bassies here for permission to witness
the experiments, but Assistant Secre-
tary McAdoo was obliged to deny the
applications as courteously as possible,
and hereafter these officers will be
obliged to acquire information as to
the results Of experimental tests made
by the Navy Department from the Off
cial reports which the ordnance officers
may think it prudent to make public

San Francisco, May PA terrific
report and concussion which was dis
tinctly felt all through the city and
towns around the bay for a distance Of
forty miles to-day was at first believed
to have been caused by an earthquake,
but proved to be an explosion in the
nitro-glycerine and mixing houses Of
the California Powder Works at Pinole,
across the bay. The crew Of the glyc-
crime house, four in number and the
foreman of the mixing house were kill
ed, as we're nine Chinese working in
the latter department. The explosion
was probably caused by the Chinese
dropping a can Of the explosive.
Huge pieces OF wood were thrown in
to the bay, a distance of half mile,
and nitrO-glycerine tanks were hurled
a distance of 500 yeards. Hands, legs
and other parts of the mutilated re-
mains Of the deceased were scattered
along the road for q mile. The nitro
glycerine house first went up, then the
mixing store house and gun cotton in
the premises followed. The nitro
glycerine house, of which not YES
tige now remains, was a three story
frame structure, 1,2OO by 80 feet. 1t
contained 5000 pounds of nitro-glyc-
crime and 1000 pounds Of hercules
powder. A remarkable feature Of the
explosion is that although the store
house containing 1000 pounds of her
cules powder, is completely wrecked,
its contents are intact In all 10000
pounds Of explosives were sent up with
a roar and sheet of flame.
The fatalities are as follows: Killed:
Clarence Johnson, foreman glycerine
house; d. A. Doane, Of Pinole; NJ. Min
ahoh, of Oakland; c. Veiegas, of Mar
tinez; W. D. Taylor, foreman Of mix
ing house; nine Chinese.

Pittsburg, Pa, May 21-The storm
centre" at New York made itself felt
in the atmosphere Of the Presbyterian
General Assembly at Pittsburg again to
day. The winds of debate had only
just cleared the ecclesiastical sky of the
cloud Of Assembly control of seminal
ries when another cloud from New
York loomed up in sight. But it was
only a passing thunder head and was
dissipated with only three puIfs Of
wind, one of which was furnished by
Elder Sterry himself, acting as the
mOuJh-piece of members of the New
York Presbytery's delegation. The
question TO the lore was the reelection
of certain men who are connected with
Union Seminary, to the position of
members of the Board of Home Mis-
sions Apparently there was consider
able opposition, but it failed to devel-
Op enough courage TO stand up and be
counted.
Another matter which promised to
bring out opposition was the erection
of a building for the use of the mission
boards i'm New York Gt a cost Of one
and three-Quarter million dollars. But
even the opposition of Elder MCDOu-
gall, of Cincinnati, failed to make it
self effective. I'm other words, the As
sombly. while overwhelmingly conserv-
ative, has refused to make itself the
tool of conservative extremists.
The opening of the Assembly's afler-
noon session was devoted to a partial
report of the committee ON bills and
overtures. Among the matters disp)s-
ed of was one I'm regard 30 the use OF
individual cups at communion. BY a
standing vote, with very few in the
negative. the churches were urged not
70 make the change contemplated. The
regulation Of young peoples societies
of Christian Eudeav0r was relegated
to the sessions Of the individual
churches. An attempt TO effect q re-
ducti0n of the expenses of the admin
istration of the missionary boards was
dismissed with no answer.
THE WORK OF THE BOARD
of relief for disabled ministers vas
presented by DR.. Jesse f. Forbes, of
New York. The receipts Of the board
last year amounted to $4,000 and the
expenditures to S17S.o00, which had
been distributed TO 7S5 persons, of
whom SO were ministers and 419 Wild
ows of ministers. The average appro-
priation was about 5000 and in no case
did it exceed $500.
DR.. John l. Blackburn, Of CovinS-
ton. Ky. presented a report on the
work Of missions to the Freedmen Of
the South. He said that the receipts
amounted to over $4,000 and the eX-
penses to nearly S164.000, and that the
debt of the board had been reduced by
over 1900. being now over $4,000.
A committee consisting OF the Vice
Moderator Gov. Beaver. Dr. Stoddard,
of New York: DR.. LCvelru, of San
Francisco: DIR. II. II. Jassup. of Syria;
and Judge Hubbard. ar Chicago. was
appointed to convey the fraternal greet
fngs of the Assembly to the United

The Suit Now Pending to Transfer the
Property lie Holds In Trust to COadjutor
Archbishop Kahn.
St Louis, Mo-, May 21.-An insanity
inquiry in the Probate Court was con-
templated two weeks ago by attorneys
who brought suit Saturday to dispos-
sess Archbishop Kenrick Of his I'M
mense property holdings.
This course of action will be more
speedy than the present procedure, but
the lawyers reflected that the Roman
Catholic community would be shock
ed. Hence a suit was brought to di-
vest Archbishop Kenrick of title on
account of his age and incapacity for
transacting business. Attorneys in
terested In the present case and others
who have been advisers Of Archbishop
Kenrick in the past differ about the
details of the wills.
The queerest feature of the whole
case is that Archbishop Kenrick IS
said to have made a will only year
ago. This instrument was drawn by
Mr.. A. J. p. Garesche, and 1t was
declaration that the testator held
everything in trust, and he bequeathed
this trust to his COadjutOr, Archbishop
Kain. who is named as executor. The
declaration of trust made in this Will
is the very thing that the courts are to
be asked to affirm as a matter of law.
But this will, leaving everything to
Archbishop Kain, is lost, or at least it
cannot be found, else Saturdays suit
would not have been brought. Mr..
Garesche and a gentleman were wit
nesses to this last will.
Estimates as to the value Of the
property held by Archbishop Kenrick
are about three million dollars.
