nickel cover prevents any flying or
separation of the fragments. If the
bullet strikes any hard substance, such
as wood, IL passes through IL, cutting n
clean hole. The cordite charge takes
the place of the powder in the ordinary
cartridge, and ii is set off by means Of a
cap and anvil. The peace congress pro-
hibited the use of bullets covered with
hard outer case unless the ease covers
the core entirely and is free from in
cisions. There has been considerable
objection to the dum-dum bullet be-
cause il is said il does not carry
straight. Ii is likely that il is doomed
for modern warfare, but il should not be
forgotten, in dealing with savage tribes,

munition has been tested at Bisley,
England. Some of the cartridges
caused the bore Of the gun to become
obstructed and momentarily checked
the free expansion of the gas by the
stripping Of the nickel sheath; this was
followed by injury TO the guns, such as
the blowing out of breeches, etc.
Cordite is n true explosive, and its use
in guns Of small caliber requires that
the cartridges shall be mechanically
perfect TO avoid distractions which
tend TO cause the barrel TO be shattered.
