ming fight with posse of officers,
has been identified as Count Won
Waldstein of Austria, scion of
noble family of history, and

them with revolvers, killing two and
wounding four of the guards before
they reached the place where the
money was kept.

five wounded.

THE NEW METAL.
Important Find of TantaIum Made in
Australia.

Now comes Australia to the front
with the find of what may very prop
erly be called a new metal-tanta-
lum. White tantalum has been found
at Wodgins for a number of years,
yet it was not until quite recently
that its practical utility for any spe-
cific purpose was known.
The new metal possesses many Of
the same qualities as does platinum;
it is not acted upon by acids. In due
tility 1t is much like iron-it can be
worked as readily as iron, but is
much heavier. Hammering renders
it exceedingly hard, and in alloy with
steel it develops startling metallurgi-
cal properties.
Experiments at the Krupp ship
yards, in Essen. show that as an
armor-piercing point for projectiles
of great velocity tantalum is destined
to revolutionize modern maritime
warfare, and will equalize the attack
to the defense, for the resistance of
armor-plate heavily alloyed with it is
increased twenty-five per cent.
Scientists who have examined tan
talum under the direction of a Ger
man syndicate which is trying to con-
troll the output insist that it will re-
place the diamond for use as drills.
1t is the only metal so far discovered
except platinum, which is too costly
TO have place commercially among

Honduras Chief Expected to Surrender at
Any characterization Revolves
About Him Entirely.

WASHINGTON, d. G., April l.
President Bonilla of Honduras is still
surrounded at Amapala, and his surren-
der is expected at any time.
David II. Wood, the American consul
at Ceiba. Honduras. who has just ar
rived in Washington from Central Amer
lea. says the HonduranS would not lend
assistance to any war which would re-
suit in ending their republic, But the
sentiment against President Boni!la be
came so strong that any means of effect
ing his overthrow was heartily welcomed
by his enemies.
Mr. Wood says the war on the north
coast of Honduras was conducted with
great fairness. The property of foreign
ers was not molcSted. Lack of labor, due
to the drafting of able bodied men into
the army, was their only loss. There
were orders against plundering and the
commanding officers paid for whatever
supplies were necessary for their forces.
