Test Mine Explosions.


Recent experiments 10 creating mine
explosions for the purpose of study
have been made at Sheffield. England,
and the result given by Consul Hamm
of Hull. A test was made In gallery
free of. the gas known as fire damp.
hut sprinkled with coal dust. A light
cannon shot first put the dust ''in sus
pension.:. as 1t would be after mine
blast. A second heavier shot was fol-
lowed by loud explosion in the gal
lery and the -belehing forth of fame
with clouds of. dense smoke.
+ The demollstrators claim to have
proved that coal dust Is both infla NINA
Bile. and explosive. The safeguarding
Of coal miners now holds the attention
Of experts aud legislators in this coun-
try. and It Is important to note that in
the Sheffield experiments certain sec.
tions Of the gallery were laid with
stone dust. to be mingled by the force
of the concussion with the coal dust
and where stone dust was present
there was no fame. Stone dust to
prevent explosions has been tested In
a circuit Of collieries near Sheffield for
many years and Is claimed to be ef-
fective.

LORD Charles Beresford OF the state of the navy
has issued its report. which is signed by Premier
Colonies; Viscount Morley. Secretary for India;
Sir Edward Grey, Secretary for Foreign Affairs,
and Richard Burden Haldane. Secretary for War.
The report practically exoneTates the Admiralty of
Admiral Beresford's charges OF having endangered
the country by the unwise organization and dis
tributon of the feet, having too few cruisers and
small craft and inefficient war plans. but II finds
that both 'he Admiralty and Lord Charles

The report is a long document. After saying that
the Board OF the Admiralty failed 10 take Ad-
miral Beresford sufficiently into their confidence,
and that the admiral tailed 10 appreciate the ex-
ecutive boards instructions. the report adds that
the committee has been impressed with the diff
ference Of opinion among officers OF high rank re-
garding important principles of naval strategy and
tactics and that II expects with much confidence
the further development of the naval war staff.
The morning newspapers. in editorials dealing
with the report. show considerable differences OF
opinion concerning IL. the ro-Beresford or
gans conteniing that as several of the reforms
which Admiral Beresford advocated have been
