Of late years, since rnenageTiss have

tmporiations Of Wild animals have
greatly increased. and ships have car
ried across the ocean csrgoss Of ferea

with as much unconcern rs though
they were white rats or rabbits. Deal
ing in wild animals has been reduced
to the same basis as buying and
selling tame live stock.
Famous dogs and horses cost more
money than wild animals, for while
a blooded St Bernard may bring
5000, n well-gTuwu lion can be
bought for less than 81 coo. and the

ARE AGAIN DISCUSSED.
senate Holds Another Alleged secret
Session Over what Is Not
Any secret.

WASHINGTON. May e.--Again today
the senate discussed in secret session the
mysterious projectile with which the navy
department has been experimenting on
armor plate
The publication in this mornings papers
Of the details of the secret session held
yesterday, in the course Of which Mr..
Tillman, OF South Carolina, laid before the
senate Information he had received at the
navy department concerning the arrnor-
piercing projectile that had played such
havoc with the best armor tested at the
government proving grounds at Indian
Head, convinced many senator's OF the fu-
tllity Of attempting by secret session TO
keep information from the public.
However, while Mr.. Tillman was ex-
planning TO the senate today what he de-
sired to accomplish by the secret session
yesterday, another secret" session was
moved, the senate preferring TO hear the
South Carolina senator's explanation be-
hind closed doors.
After the galleries had been cleared Mr..
Tillman reiterated substantially the state
ment concerning the Indian Head tests
of armor plate which he had made yes
terday. He pointed out the effectiveness
OF the projeotile tipped with a point OF
soft steel against the armor tested, and
used that fact as an argument against
the payment by the government of what
he termed monopolistic prices for armor.
He dwelt upon the vulnerahility of the
best-known armor including the Krupp
armor. against the protect.le. He arraign-
ed the navy department for making pub
lie yesterday the details OF a test of ar
NOR with the six-inch gun. in which one
Of the soft-nosed projectiles pierced the
plate almost If it were oak. declaring
his belief that the test has been made
public for the effect 1t might have upon
the senate debate on the pending bill
Chandler felt that the navy department
had not dealt frankly with the senate In
respect to the information regarding the
tests.
Hoar discussed the matter brieiy.
deprecating the evident inability of the
senate TO keep its secrets, and criticising
the navy department for publishing infor-
nation withheld from the senate
After some brief discussion II was de-
cided. inasmuoh as the salient facts had
been published. that the armor plate mat
ter might as well be considered in open
session.
In this connection II was pointed out
that there was really no secret about the
soft-nosed proiectile. IA the navy depart
ment has been Experimenting with the
projectile for years.
Later in the day a communication was
submitted to the senate by Hale from the
bureau of ordnance Of the navy depart
ment. in which WAS described infinitely
the effect of the projectile in question up
on various kinds OF armor. II was shown
that the proiectile, which is a solid steel
shot--not sheli--carrying no explosive
charge. would oierce tho best OF armor
when the conditions Of the tests were per-
feet in every instance, but only in such
condition.

The position became serious. The Beers
sent up reinforcements, placing the Aus

1t is expected the bill will have a much
better chance as an amendment in the
