On the first shot with powder charge

a second the projectile, an armor- piercing
she'll, entered the steel only four and one
half inches and broke to pieces, the base
flying into the air. Few radial cracks and
but little bulge were noticeable where the
shot entered. On the next shot the We
locity was increased to $50 feet second,
which drove the projectile ten inches into
the plate, where parts of il were wedged
and the remainder broken up badly scat
tered around the supports. No severe
cracks followed the shot
The plate showed that it was fully up
TO the naval requirement. Admiral O'Neil
Chief of the Ordnance Bureau, says that
the trial ensured the acceptance of the
last lot of armor for the Alabama and
that with the after turret protected. the
ship would be ready for going into COM

NEW WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
The Weather bureau 10 Investigate
the Fessenden system.

Exhaustive Investigations will soon be
conducted by the Weather Bureau with the
Fessenden system of wireless telegraphy.
Results attained thus far have been so
satisfactory that Prof Willis T. Moore.
Chief of the Weather Bureau. has recon-
mended, and the Secretary of Agriculture
has directed, that a contract be entered
into with Prof. Fessenden, under which
the Government will acquire the use OF
his instruments, and at the end Of a year
have the right to their free use. II is pro-
posed to install the instruments at various
stations, one OF which will be in Wash
ngton. Should the system prove a success
great saving in telegraph tolls will re-
suit.
Prof Fessenden asserts that his system
is accurate and that messages can be sent
two hundred miles without interruption.
He declares also that the waves can be sent
in certain directions AT the will Of the OPP
orator, and that they cannot be interfered
with. In other systems the waves radiate
in circles and are difficult TO control.

THE DOCKING OF WARsHIps
Vessels TO lie Recalled From ManiIs
10 Be Cleaned

The question of recalling some of the
large warships on the Asiatic station will
be given immediate consideration on ac-
count of the discovery that the battle
ship Oregon, the largest vessel at Manila.
has not been locked for year and four
months. She was last cleaned at the
Brooklyn navy yard in September, 1898,
just after her return from Cuba She
went from New York to San Francisco. a
distance of $4,000 miles and thence pro-
ceeded across the Pacific, and additional
1000 miles.
Most of the time since her arrival in the
Philippines she he's been lying at anchor
off Manila, thus permitting the deteriorat-
ing work of marine and animal growth of
tropical waters to go on uninterruptedly.
The naval regulations require that a
vessel shall be docked and cleaned once in
six months. If a vessel goes without
docking for nine months, a special reason
for any further delay in cleaning her bot
tom must be given by the responsible Off
GER. Several other ships in the Philip
pines have not been docked within the re-
CURED period, and it is feared that their
bottoms have been badly pitted. The
cruiser Baltimore is one of these. She
went to Hongkong the other day, and it
supposed at the Navy Department that she
has been docked there.
