turned away. Fully 1000 were In tho
hall. 1t is understood that large pro.
portion were armed. Police were on
guard on the outside.
Tho police kept continually on the

QUEDEc. February 2S.-The successful
tempering Of aluminium, SO as to give it
tho consistency OF iron. is tho triumph
Of +. Allard, tho Levis blacksmith,
whose rediscovery OF the lost Egyptian
art Of hardening copper, startled the
mechanical world three or four years
ago. and only failed to make the fortune
oil the author because OF the expensive
ness OF tho project. A recent trial Of
Allard's tempered aluminium has proved
the success OF his method and the prac.
tical purposes to which it can be ap-
piled.
After having givcn the resistance OF
iron to n number OF articles manuiac.
tured by him OF aluminium. he has made
and hardened cannon, which has just
been tested in tho presence OF Colonel
Spence. the American consul here, and
number OF others with success. This
cannon Is IS inchos long and inches in
diameter, the metal OF the gun outside
the borc being only quarter OF uu
inch thick. a charge. consisting OF a
pound Of powder, was fired out OF this
without any appreciable effect upon it
A scientific trial OF tho cannon has been
ordered by tho Canadian military au-
thorities and tho United States consul.
Allard has been asked to manufacture
as soon as possible cannon 70 feet long
for direct shipment to Washington.
The cannon just tested weighs II
pounds. II it were ont OF iron and OF

Ward declared that Wilson hal told
him that Harry Hayward could u o. bo
touched, as the man he had seen in tho
buggy with Miss Cling was not Harry ut
all. Wards impression was that Will
son had said Adry was the man, but his
impressions were ruled out
Paul Born, messenger, who carried
a note to Miss Cling the morning Of the
day OF the murder. described the man
who sent 1t. The description did not fit
Harry. She had torn the note up after
reading It
Deputy Sheriff Warren swore that
Blixt had said when asked how he kept
his feet from getting bloody after the
murder had replied: "By keeping them
out Of tho buggy"
Blixt was sent for from Jail aud pend
Ing his arrival his two statements were
read TO the jury with some omissions
passed on by tho court.
Shortly aiterward the defense rested,
having secured q denial from Blixt OF
the assertions of Warren.
REDUrrAL EVIDENCE
Tho first witness in rebuttal was
Oliver G. Torreucs, who went to where
the body lay on the night OF the murder
with tho officers. He wore pointed toe
shoes and walked all around the ground
at that point. This evidence was in

Blixt had not made tho statements
with reference to Adry's completely at

Mr.. Nye, the prosecuting attorney,
was Obliged to succumb this afternoon
to an attack of the grip, and this will
probably delay the case, as his assist

the morning the state will conclude its
rebuttal during the day. The defense
will follow with its rebuttal, and the
evidence will all be in Saturday.
Late this afternoon John A. Olsen

him he could make thousand dollars
by going to tho defense and saying he
