Cast steel shells the Rest.

Washington City. Feb. 2s.-Surprlsing
results were obtained at a test of shells
at the Indian Head proving grounds yes
terday. and IL these shall be confirmed
by further experiments. our navy, which
already possesses the best armor plate in
the world. will have by far the best aruor
penetrating shells. and both of American
invention. What was done yesterday at
the proving grounds was to fire cast-steel
shell OF six-inch caliber entirely through
a seven-inch Harveyized nickel steel plate.
through the heavy oak backing and twelve
feet into the bank OF clay behind. This
performance has never been equalad by
any protectile OF like caliber In the world.
The rsaval experts are much pleased with
the test They say that these cast-steel
shells can be bought for much less than the
expensive forged steel. and that they can
be made much more quickly. and that
they appear 10 be superior in every re-
spect.

New Yorks. Feb. "a special to the
World from Managua, Nicaragua, says:
There are signs that the revolution in
Northern Nicaragua may spread all over
Central America. II has a distinctly re-
ligious cast. and the Leonites can count
on aid not only in this republic, but in the
four other republics as well. The reyolu-
tionists fear the growing popularity OF
the United States in Latin America, and
also fear American control of the canal.
The growth of American ideas here is re-
garded as tending to extend liberalism.
which the clergy desire 10 stamp out.
Guatemala is ripe for revolution, owing
TO the deep-seated dissatisfaction OF the
intelligent portion Of the people with the
military rule OF Barrios, whose humble ex-
traction and record for cruelty have

just organized the military departments
