GUN TO SHOOT AIRSHIPS
Ordnance Department Has One Ready
for Experiments.

Washington, Aug. 31.-A new six
pounder gun, equipped with specially
adapted high explosive projectiles and
shrapnel shells to demolish aeroplanes
and balloons in battle. has been per
fected by the United States army II
can be elevated at any angle and pos
sesses a maximum effective range OF
seven miles,
The construction of the new rifle mas
lust been completed ct the Rock Island,
Ill arsenal. Experiments with it Will
begin at the Sandy Hook proving
grounds within a fortnight The army
thus is in advance of the navy toward
the solution of the problem of defense
against airships. The navy only few
davs ago conducted its first tests with
the carriage of one-pounder gun.
The shells which this army gun VIII
hurl into he skies are described as
remarkable devices. They will be load
ed with dunnite or other high explo-
sive. and On bursting. will send forth
a shower of shot in a cone like area,
similar to the performance of sky
rocket almost certain to strike an air
ship # aimed with any degree or ac-
curacy-
Other projectiles which have been de-
signed for the new gun contain only a
high explosive which, on exploding
would wreck any airship nearby.
Following in the wake of these power
full projectiles will be tracers Whlcn VIII

a hostile d1TSlllp. he L dSClo ~ ~
used i'm daylight will be of smoke
While sparks will show the Path Of the
shell at night.
The sight of the new gun also has
chaneine conditions of the trajectory
of propectiIe fired at varying angles
The gun is the result of experiments
held at Sandy Hook several months
ago
will shoot at balloons and box kites and
possibly real a;rship will be used for
the purpose of sighting at great dis
tapce.
Credit for the invention belongs to
ordnance experts of the army working
under direction of Brigadier General
William Crozier. chief of ordnance.

MADERO is NAMED.
Nominated for President of Mexico
Without a Dissenting Vote.

Mexico City. Aug s1.-With no dis
sentlng voice, Francisco I. Madero was
nominated by the progressive party for
president of Mexico. but Francisco
Vasquez Gomez, his old running mate
and erstwhile agent of the revolution
at washington, was gri1led by parti-
sans Of three other candidates for the
vice presidency. When the convention
adjourned the candidacy of no other
man than Gomez for the vice presi-
dency had been considered Jose Pine
Saurez continued a favorite in tho bet
ting, with Alfredo Robes Domiuguez a
second choice. A ballot would prob
dDly nave resulted in division Of
honors for third place between Gomez
and Fernando Inglesias CaIderon.
Madero was the only candidate for
the presidency whose name was placed
before the convention. No speeches
We're made. The chairman announced
Madero's candidacy. went through the
formalities of asking if there Were
others. and was greeted by a chorus of
noes One delegate seated on the
stage attempted to make a speech in
Madero's support. The delegates shout
ed him down and called for a vote. 1t
was unanimous. An instant later every
delegate was on his feet and TO the
chorus of ''vivas" was added the cheers
OF the spectators in the galleries. For
fully 10 minutes the uproar continued.
At 3 o'clock last night the committee
which had been sent to advise EIaderO
of his nomination reported that lie hal
accepted and had agreed to appear be-
fore the body today.
The delegates seized on this as an
excuse for another outbreak If ap-
plause, which resulted in adjournment.
following the adoption of a resolution
that the entire body should immediate
ly march to Madero's home.
Impromptu speeches were then ex-
changed and it was late in the night
before the newly created politicians
left for their hotels.

new CHARTER.
Col. Roosevelt Is Opposed to the Pro-
posed Change.

New York. Aug. 31.=The proposed
new charter for New York City, espe-
cially that part which increases the
powers of the mayor, is attacked by
Theodore Roosevelt in an editorial
published today in The Outlook. The
methods of imposing charter says
Colonel Roosevelt, upon the people
of New York=it would be a rank ab-
surdity to speak of the process as
granting a charter to the people OF
New York-by those in power at Al
bany. Unfortunately, the events OF
the past session have made most men
feel that this is merely roundabout
way of saying those in control of Tam
many give an almost ideal illustration
of how not to act in the matter of self
The former president objects par
ticularly to the provision for increas-
ing the mayors authority over the
finances and education system of the
city and to taking away the governors
power to remove the mayor upon
charges.
He also finds fault with what he
terms 1.-The method of thrusting the
charter upon the city and contrasts
these methods with the wide agitation
and publicity that preceded the adop-
ton of a constitution by Arizona and
New Mexico, which contain not much
more than one-tenth of the population
of New York -

WHEAT IS STRONG
Increase in War Risks Has q
Bullish Effect.
Drought in Australia and Light

CORN is HELD FIRM
By Reports That Crop Is Slow
in Maturing.
Stop Loss Selling a Weight in
Provision Market.

Chicago, Aug. NATURALIZATION
ment today OF an increase in war risks
put strength into the market for wheat.
The advance of insurance rates, military
preparation to make certain the neutrality
of Belgian territory and the pessimistic
outlook for the resumption OF negotiations
regarding Morocco all joined to cause a
rise in prices here. There were also re-
ports of drought in Australia, lighter ship
mentS from the Argentine and a scarcity
of offers from Russia
The opening was shade to 1zQ3sc high
er. December started at SAC to 941sc, a
gain of asG15c to 1zQ9sc but reacted to
9324c.
The market later reacted because of
heavy sales on resting orders but the eff
feet did not last The close was steady
with December 5sc net higher at 941sQ9414c
CORN-Assertion that the crop is slow
in maturing tended to make corn firm.
Trade, however, was light and scattered
December opened unchanged to 7s@Ac
higher at 6214 Q625sc to 6212c and advanced
to 625sc.
Rumors of probable withdrawal of Ger
man import duties on corn led to a fur
firm at 63l4c for December, net gain
of 5s01c.
OATS-The fact that offerings We're linn
tied helped to lift oats. December started

SHORTAGE AT The MINT
Whether Due to Waste or Theft Is Not
Known.

Denver, Colo. Aug. 31.-That an in
vestigation disclosed a wastage or
shortage. the amount of which he
would not state, is admitted by George
E. Roberts, director of the United
States mint, but he declined to state
what action. if any, is to be taken or
whether his present visit to Denver is
the direct result of this investigation.
Mr.. Roberts admitted that Richard c.
Morrison, former foreman of the ingot
melting room, was discharged for
'wastage and for the good of the SER
vice. but that no arrests were made
because proof of shortage was never
established, nor mint thief identified.
The investigation was based on a state
ment of a local assayer in the presence
of government officials that he had
been approached by a mysterious man,
who asked him to accept gold melt it
and divide the proceeds. When ques-
toned, the stranger admitted the offer
was not on the square, whereupon he
disappeared and was seen no more.

HE IS LEARN1NG GAME.
Young Man Seeks $3.50 and Peal
Estate Teacher.

Wichita, Kan, Aug. 31.-C. NJ Per-
klns, son of a widow of Manchester.
Okla, believes that he has invested
$3.50 in gold brick sailing under the
name of school for real estate agents.
He complained to the Wichita police
that j. Wells, a real estate agent, was
carrying a fat wallet in which the
young man says is a roll which he put
up as a bond until he could learn how
to sell real estate in Wichita without
damaging his teacher.
Life on a farm, even in a rich Okla
homa $50 acres, did not have mucn
charm for Mr. Perkins, who states that
he is Just past 20,'' so he came to
wichita to become a pupil of landology
under Mr.. Wells.
Mr. Perkins wanted to become rich
so he called upon Mr.. Wells. His
mother, widow, accompanied her son
as she wanted him to start in business
under suspicious circumstance
They had several talks with Mr.
Wells, they stated, and at Mr.. Wells
suggestion Mrs Perkins put up a bond
to insure her sons teacher that the
boy would act in good faith towards
ms instructor and employer.
That was the last seen of the $3.50
and Mr. Wells, they state. They have
been anxious to see the boys real
estate instructor since Monday even
ing.
