DEADLY ENGINE OF
WAR USED BY FRENCH

London, Sept. 26.-Remarkable
tales of novel engines of war are ap-
pearing in all parts Of Europe. but
nothing has yet equalled the report
circulated concerning the new guns
used by the French which fire tur-
pinite, a substance said to produce
instantaneous and painless death
to every living thing within Its
reach.
Although 1t is so deadly In Its
work, turpinite cannot be objected
to on the ground that 1t violates hui
man principles of war. In fact 1t is
80 human that 1t must be confused
with lyddite and other explosives
which have deadly fumes.
English correspondents have re-
ported that entire lines Of German
soldiers stood dead in their trench
es as a result of the fumes from the
mysterious turpinite, discharged by
the French in engagements along
the Marine. The dead Germans are
reported to have maintained a
standing posture and retained their
rifles in their hands. so sudden and
unusual was the effect of the new
weapon. instantaneous paralysis is
said to have been caused by turpin-
tka
