TYPE NOT READY
Delay Experienced in Pelfecting
New Service Rifle for
Army.
SEVERAL POINTS ARE AT ISSUE
Little More TO be Done at Local
Arsenal Until Selection is
Made.

As appears, there has not yet been
"a formal adoption of the type of gun
that is to be the small arm of the
United States army; hence, nothing
can be done in the direction of manu-
featuring those weapons, no matter
how ready they may be at Rock ISL
and arsenal or Springfield armory to
turn out that product.
There have been recent experiments
with the sample weapons, and,
as far as is known, these experiments
are still being carried on. They have
reached the stage at which INDIGESTION
is most apt to halt the march of pro-
grcss; the stage in which the iudg-
ment of the man behind the gun is
the dominant factor in the ease.
The announcement has been made
that the ordinance experts have de-
veloped 24-inch barrelled rife of 80
calibre that shoots harder and far
Their and faster than the 3O-inch barrel
% the Krags'. This sounds absurd
The longer the barrel, within reason
able limits, the greater the chance for
the power gas to expand, and the
higher the velocity. Naturally with
the same charge the 3O-inch barrel
would shoot considerably harder than
that of 24 inches. But there is a sim
pie reason for the fact that the "a
inch barrel has given as fiat ira jec-
tory and as great penetration as the
30-inch barrel. They have loaded it
heavier.
Xxi, X" Is "A Factor.

when the men themselves have "a
chance to talk, the very quick sharp
blow of the practically instantaneous
recoil of the smokeless powder we
have now in use hits a good deal hard
er than the recoil of the old black
powder, and the big load in the pa
inch barrel is worse than the 3O-inch
barrel, with the load they used to use
in il. 1t is unpleasant to stand be-
hind. The dynamomenter shows no
greater recoil, perhaps, but it is diff
ferent, and being quicker, it hurts the
mans shoulder good deal worse,
though the insensatc machine may
show ii as no worse.
The small arms plant here has been
perfected as far as can be until the type
Y
of the gun to be made is known
There are many fixtures to be made
before the work here can start. and
making them is slow work. The power
is in the shops, the machines are belt
ed up, the light system is roughly in
place, but can be finished in Il few
days; the steam heating system is in
place and in operation through the
winter. The delicacy of some of the
machinery that will be used i'm this
manufacture makes it necessary to
keep it from being chilled down to
the temperature Of zero in the winter. |
But there is Il stock of material to be |
got, and there is a force of operatives
to be organized, and both of these |
things are certain to consume time in
the doing.

REFEREE TRIMBLE
 TO RETAIN OFFICE
JUDGE JONES WILL REAPPolNT HIM WHEN PRESENT TERM Ex- pIREs-RUMoRED GEN. FERGu- SON WILL BE co-REFEREE.

Referee N ". Trimble will be reap pointed to the position of referee In bankruptcy by Judge Thomas G. Jones of the United States court. The present term of office of Referee Trimble will expire November 2S and when his ap- nointment is made he will serve another term of two years.
 It is understood that Judge Jones may consider it advisable a little later to have two referees, in which case he will make another appointment. It was rumor- ed last night that in case this IS done Gen. Fred s. Ferguson will be given the other place.
 R. C. Redus is out of the race for the position of referee. A committee composed of some of the friends of MT. Redus went to Judge Jones yesterday to urge the appointment of their friend and Judge Jones told them there was no need of dis cussing the matter because he had de- cided to appoint Referee Trimble to suc- ceed himself.
 The candidacy of various persons for the position about to become vacant has been commented upon considerably for several weeks. The friends of MT. Redus circulated a petition as did the friends of the present referee and both men had substantial support for the place. It has not been generally known, however, that General Ferguson was a candidate.

PIG IRON PRICES
 VARY SOMEWHAT
BULK OF BUSINESS SAIDtTo BE GOING TO COMPANIES WHICH SEEM EAGER TO REDUCE THEIR STOCKS.

Rogers Brown & Co.'S Cincinnati circu- lar of today's date will say:
 Considerable interest Is manifested in southern iron, but the bulk of the busi- ness is apparently going to a few com panes who are seemingly anxious to un- load their accumulated stocks. There is variation of at least 70 cents per ton in the prices being asked by the different companies, and the problem now is wheth- CT the low priced sellers will soon be satisfied with the orders received and mark up quotations or whether the others will be obliged to come down. It is ad- mitted on all sides that the producers are not getting back cost for their iron and 1t is supposed that numerous furnaces will be obliged to blow out.
 One round lot of the lower grades was disposed of during the past few days and another large buyer is in the market.
 In northern iron there has been little change. Two of the furnaces in the Iron ton district have been obliged to blow out for refining.

 Turfmen say there seems to be every reason why he should stay in Birming- ham. The horse is here. He is some- what accustomed to the track and the peo- pie here are eager that he should pace here again.
