report of tho chief engineer OF tho
army on the obstruction of the nayi-

where efforts have been made in that
directions was in the Tisokfaw river,
Ala. Sufficient time has not yet

EXPLOSION OF MINES.
Interesting Experiments liz the Inter-
est of the Cuban .Jun:a.

SOV VI LNC <ucAh buArOs
Interesting experiments in the dis
charge OF powerful explosives, in the
interest, it is believed, Of the Cuban
Junta in this country, were made
Wednesday and Thursday on a desc
late part OF the beach, eight miles west
Of Wells, Nc. The possibility OF ez-
ploding dynamite mines over which
the enemy is marching was fully dem
onstrated, and it Was also shown that
explosives may be tloated above an
army attached to the tail OF kite and
dropped upon the enemy With disas-
trous results. three Of tho men who
made these experiments were Cubuns.
One was chsmist named Augustus
Robinson, Of New York. Another
was an electrician closely identified
with q telegraph office at Lynn, Mass.
Every effort WAS made to keep the
matter secret. Sixteen mines were
laid out.
These minee were 800 feet apart,
covering 1900 feet OF sand and gravel.
An insulated wire was run to each
mine, where several large sticks of
dynamite were deposited. From the
last mlno the return wire Was run to a
point about mile away, to which n
powerful electric buttery, connecting
with oil the wires, was attached.
Enormous holes and ridges were torn
up whole lengths Of the beach. A
great kite, nearly fifteen feet in height,
was brought o"t by the Cubans and
handed to the electrician, who began
preparations to fly it, For string he
used two very tIe insulated wires,
twisted together and one mile in
length.
A long tail OF insulated wire was
connected with the kite. At the end
OF the kites tail two balls containing
high explosives were afterward at
tached. The WIRE string was paid out
until the kite was fully mile eway.
Then the two. en]s Of the twisted wire
were handed to the electrician. He
attached the wires to his battery and
prepared to send al electric current
through the wire string and tail OF the
kite to the balls which contained the
explosive. The Glide on the battery
was pulled up and then rammed down
again.
Within few seconds there was a
deatening report. A moment later
there was great commotion in the
water and tremendous waves washed
the shores. The Cuban chemistg re.
turned to New York.
