gun ever ordered from the Watertown Arsenal
was begun to-day. The weapon is to be a 3 6.10-
inch breech-loading rifed field mortar, of the

Washington that the Government was paying
too much money for mortars manufactured by
private establishments.
The mortar weighs when finished 245 pounds.
1t throws twenty pounds OF shrapnel about
$500 yards at an angle of forty-f1ve degrees.
The gun and carriage are constructed so that
