that realized by II in other lines and from
the larger part Of its commercial business.
All Of these facts appear from detailed
statements made before the Congression-
al Committee which are now on public
record.
What Makes Powder Manufacture ES-
pensiVe.
Il must be remembered that there are
peculiar burdens imposed on this business
by its nature. To say nothing Of the dan
gers of accident which often result in
very large losses. the Governmental De-
partments are continually considering
changes in the formula and an the pro-
eesses Of manufacture. and as a result
are continually making changes IN the
specification which they require to be
fulfilled in the furnishing OF explosives
The result Of these changes has frequently
rendered powder already manufactured Of
no avail. and frequently abandonment Of
expensive machinery which was no Longer
available has been necessitated. The de-
mands OF the Government have been
spasmodlc, requiring large plants which
TOT lonE ltlAuua oA AAAAH AA aAAAs 4 40
specifications are very strictly enforced
and the result is that large amounts Of
powder have been unavailable and have
been left on the hands OF the company.
The DUPONT Company was organized in
1902 and furnished the United states Cow
ernment all the powder used in the war
OF 1872. and the major part Of that used in
1S4S, 1915. and 1898. A careful investigH-
ton Of the prices charged by contractors
curing the last two wars. shows that
while practically every other contractor
who had been previously selling munitions
OF war 10 the Government. advanced its
prices, the DUPONT Company sold at no
greater and, for some kinds Of material,
at a less price than had before been
charged
The company undertook to manufacture
Brown Prismatic Powder when Il was
seen that the supply OF smoleless powder
wos not sufficient. putting in new mo
chinery based upon the contracts then
given. Upon the signing Of the protocol In
July. 1898. and tho demonstration of the
absolute unhtness of Brown Prismat.c
powder for military purposes, the Govern
ment requested Tho cancellation Of the
untitled portions of the contracts, which
was done by the dupont Company with
out any compensation for the new ma
chinery which then remained on its hands

Piles sufferers in the past have look
ed upon an operation as the only rem

gon Trail, who is working his way By
easy stages from Puget Sound to Wash
ington ID. c., with two stout oxel
drawing a wagon he used when
be crossed the plains so years
ago, has reached Dayton, Ohio.
All parts of the wagon have been re
newed except one hub, which still sur
wives.
He has pair of oxen that attract at.
tention, both being splendid animals
capable of drawing hundreds of pounds
Both are shod so that that their hoofs
will not be cut travelling over the stony
roads they meet after leaving the plains.
Meeksr is making his way by selling a
book and package of souvenir pos.;.l
cards. The funds realized by Meeker
are TO be used in building monuments
along the old Oregon trail. With the
expedition is shepherd dog, which mas
maintained his position at the heels of
the oxen during all the long journey.
