INVESTIGATION OF THE WAR

1t is the common report that persons
who are now charged with negligence
or incompetence will be caught in the net
OF inquiry, while others who are openly
accused viii be found blameless. If IN
inquiry should be made into the cause
of so much sickness outside the army,
it would be found that many people who
think themselves in good condition are
really caught in the net Of disease. Many
of them are losing strength so slowly
that they do not know it. To build up
strength and enrich the blood use Hos

any arrangement of stomach, liver and

pepsia and indigestion.

tieved by experts can and viii be OBJ
fained by improvements in pneumatic
guns. the yesuvius, or a vessel carry
ing similar guns, would be more than
4 match for the best battleship afioat.
The vesuvius was built by Cramps
at Philadelphia In 1886 and was accept
ed by the government and placed In
commission four years later. Its ar
mament consists OF three pneumatic
guns, which are IN the forward part Of
the vessel. The guns are built into the
vessel. which acts as a movable gun
carriage. Their muzzles are carried for
ward and project above the deck. near
the bow, at an elevation Of IS degrees.
They are made Of thin cast iron, are 10
inches In diameter. and are "a feet long.
They are not rified, the vanes upon the
projectile being relied upon to give the
desired axial rotation. The full-sized
shells for the guns are 14& inches in
diameter and about feet long. A tall
Is fitted at the end of the shell with
spiral yanes, which secures its align
ment and rotation. They are designed
to carry charge Of $50 to 200 pounds
OF dynamite Or guncotton, and the ef-
feet OF the latter charge the results at
Santiago attest Experts say that II
one Of these giant shells exploded with
fl twenty feet Of an armored vessel, q

The shells are hurled from the guns
by compressed air and SO powerful is
this force that they can be sent with
accuracy distance OF two and d half
miles. The air Il compressed into res
ervoirs containing large number Of
wrought iron tubes. Each shot that is
fred ct mile range takes $50 pounds
Of air.
The guns are loaded and handled
with ease. Under the rear of each gun
are two ''reyolvers." each containing
five chambers for the shells. When the

Spaniards into fight, but they refused
the bait. Blues boat ran on reef near
Cape Francis, and would have made an
easy prey for the Spaniards. She did
not get away until after twelve hours
had passed. Blue ran the gantlet Of
five Spanish gunboats, and reached the
outposts Of General Gomez, where he
planted the American flag. On his re-
turn from his hazardous expedition
around Santiago Bay he brought with
him copy Of Santiago newspaper.
His daring trip into the very homes Of
the Spanish set at rest the fiction that
the Cape Verde feet was not bottled up
in the little bay.
