AN UNUSUAL WAGER.
bet Made June IL on Secretary AL

80 AsNshts
y singular bet was paid at an up
town resort in Washington the other
morning. The money had been posted
June II last and amounted to $3.50 The
winner had wagered on that date 5000
to $50 that Secretary Alger would
offer his resignation to President Nc
kinley before Aug. /, 1899.
Neither party to the bet was a poll
tician. and neither had been formerly
known to take any particular interest
in public affairs. Both are we'll off,
and their personal relations are init
mate, says the Washington Star. The
bet grew out Of q discussion Of the
Dreyfus case, the winner declaring
that the reopening of it was due to the
change Of public sentiment of the peo-
pie of France and following this uD
by asserting that, whether right or
wrong, the clamor against Secretary
Alger would result in his leaving the

NEW GUN FOR THE NAVY.
Trial OF n Six Inch quick Firing GuR
In ENGLAND.

In Eng land.
The navy department III Washington
has just received from Thomas +.
Lane, agent in the United States for
yickerson & Maxim Of England, re-
port on the result OF the trial at the
company's proving ground Of 4 new
inch quick firing gun which has been
manufactured by the Maxim company
for the United States navy. This gun
was ordered 10y the chief Of the naval
bureau of ordnance about a year ago,
when the navy department purchased
from the manufacturers the right 10
use this mechanism In the United
States.
This type OF gun has been adopted by
the British admiralty. 1t is of 4J cali
Der weight of bore and weighs over
seven tons. Steel wire and long tubes
form important elements in the con-
struction Of the gun, and an important
part is that relating to the breech end
of the gun, which is closed 10y a screw
Of novel design, says the New York
Sun. The mounting Of mis- gun is very
compact, the gun being made to slide
in u cradle bored eccentrically. The
design gives great elasticity, and
should the mounting be struck by
| Shot from the enemy the thick sleeve
Of the top carriage gives additional
protection to the pivot. \ range indi-
Gator and sighting telescope form an
important alteration from the usual
sighting arrangements.
In the recent trial number of full
charges of cordite were fired at a
| heavy gun range at Eskmeals, Cum
berland, during which velocity of
2,ST3 feet per second was obtained for
a working pressure Of II tons. The
gun was then subjected to high strains
to test its general construction and
mounting, which were made in Shelf
field. The projectiles fired weighed 100
pounds and were fitted with q gas
/ check, which to a considerable extent
accounts for the high energies obtained
and prevents any abnormal wear due
to use Of modern guncotton or nitro
glycerin explosives.
The striking energy of the gun was
no less than 5,12i foot tons, which
would pcrforate a thickness Of steel
armOr Of II inches. The energy OBJ
talned per ton Of gun is 1853 foot tons,
/ and as n rate of fire of ten rounds per
/ minute for long series Of rounds has
| been easily obtained the gun Is capable
! Of doing work to no less extent than
| 5I240 foot tons per minute. The
| mounting is constructed of light steel
! fOrgings with the special view Of re-
! ducing the weight on board ship and
/ Yet securing ample strength for with
standing the strains Of such & high
| powered gun. The general construc-
ton admits Of great ease in training
and elcvating, which operations can De
/ performed by one man, who also fires
the gun from platform which rotates
with the mounting
The energy of recoil is absorbed by
small hydraulic cylinder in combina-
tion with two springs, which latter,
after firing, return the gun TO its firing
position. These arrangements ore plac-
ed beneath the gun so that they are Sc
curely protected from shell fire. The
gun itself recoils in a steel cylinder
which protects the outside of the gun
from damage by small quick firing ar
