Too 0 lex Gunpowder.

From Chambers Journal.
When larger guns were first con-
structed, requiring a larger charge of
powder, a serious drawback was expe-
rienced IL was found that after firing
few shots from them the firing cham
Der was badly damaged, being in some
cases cracked. Additional thickness of
material in this part of the gun proved
only temporary remedy. as the vio-
lence OF the xplosion bodily removed
layer after layer of the inner surface.
Here was serious problem, and steps
were Immediately taken to investigate
the cause of this local rupture. 1t was
soon discovered that the evil was due
TO the too rapid burning of the powder,
which, being converted almost instan-
taneously into gas, exerted an enor-
nous pressure in the firing chamber
before the bullet had commenced its
motion down the barrel AS the pres
sure is proportionate to the amount of
powder used. that produced by a small
charge would not be sufficient to give
rise TO these destructive results.

Declares That Armenian Revolution.
lists Provoked the Recent Massacres

The Sultan of Turkey has issued long
reply to the collective note of the
powers in the matter of the massacres at
Cohstantinople. He declares that these
massacres were provoked by Armenian
revolutionists. He denies fatty that the
rioters Were known TO and directed Ivy
government agents, and asserts that the
Armenians assumed Mussulman costumes
IN order 10 p2rpetrate their crimes.
The fury of the Mussulmans, he asserts
was directly due to threats on the part
of the ArmenIans.
Concerning the attitude of the police and
soldiers, who were asserted to have aided
the rioters, the sultan announces that an
inquiry Will be made and that If guilty
these officials will be punished.
The Turkish authorities have put a stop
TO the deportation of Armenians, which
has been going since the recent fatal
riots in Constantinople.
