HOW TO DESTROY EXPLOSIVES.
Precaution to Be Taken With Gun
pOVVder and N;&rooIxoen;.>

PrecautIon to Be Taken With Gun
powder and Ntroglycerine.
The best way to destroy ordinary
black gunpowder is to throw it into
stream under conditions that prevent
any harm coming to human beings
or animals through the dissolving of
the saltpetre. If no suitable stream
is available the gunpowder may be
poured out on the ground in long
thin line and ignited with fuse at
one end.
To destroy dynamite cartridges the
paper wrappinngs should be carefully
removed, the bare cartridges laid in
a row with their ends in contact and
the first cartridge ignited with a fuse
without a cap. Even with these pre-
cautions Simultaneous explosion Of
the entire mass may occur. so that
it is wise to retire to safe distance.
The row of cartridges should be laid
parallel with the wind and ignited at
the ieewaTi end so that the flame
will be driven away from the mass.
Frozen dynamite should be handled
with Special care, as it's combustion
is peculiarly liable to assume an ex-
plosive character. A small quantity
Of dynamite may be destroyed by
throwing it in very small bits into an
open fire, or the cartridges may be
exploded one by one in the open air
with fuses and caps
Dynamite should never be thrown
into water, as the nitroglycerine
which it contains remains undissolved
and capable of doing mischief. Other
explosives which contain nitroglycer.
inc should be treated in the same way
as dynamite.
Ammonium nitrate explosives may
be thrown in small fragments into an
open fire, or If they do not contain
nitrogiycsrine may be destroyed by
means OF water. Explosive caps
should be exploded with pieces OF
fuse.

RECEIVERS FOR
STEAMER COMPANY

New Orleans. December S.-As receiver
for the Bluefelds Steamship company Ell
mer E. Wood was tonight appointed by
Judge Rufus E. Foster of the United
States district court.
This action followed the filing of bill
of complaint by Frederick E. Steele OF
Chicago, who claims to be one of the
largest stockholders of the company. 1t
is set forth in the bill that the object of
the litigation is to protect the stockhold-
ers of the Bluefelds Steamship company
against the control of the stock by the
United Fruit company, which, it is be-
lieved has recently claimed to hold the
majority of stock of the company. 1t
is alleged that the United Fruit company
is a combination of seven companies and
that it is an illegal organization under the
provisions of the Sherman antitrust act
The appointment of a receiver comes on
the heels of a report here that General
Estrada, leader of the revolutionists
forces in Nicaragua, has revoked the
concession of the concern by which it
was given certain exclusive rights for the
handling of fruit on the east coast of
Nicaragua. 1t Is believed here that this
action in connection with the forma-
ton of another company here yesterday
for the handling of fruit from the At
lantic ports of Nicaragua will form the
basis Of an issue TO be presented to the
state department at Washington.
