OF the so-called insulated tank car
, which is constructed of two layers
OF steel with a two-inch layer of as
bestos with dome having a capacity
of one-third the capacity of the car
The car was designed by a special
committee Of experts from the ma
ucnal association Of master car build
ers. The construction Of such a car,
Mr., Parks said, was in response to
demand from shippers for safer and
better means of transporting gasoline
than is afforded by the steel cars.
The difference in cost between the
insulated and the non-insulated cars.
he said, was from 5000 to $500, the
new car being from 1900 to 5000
pounds heavier than the present ones.
With the insulated car the safety
valve he said, was set at a pressure
Of twenty-five pounds, while on steel
cars it is set at twelve pounds. show

No Dynamite.

Professor Humphreys stated emphat-
ically that there was no evidence
connected with the disaster that indi-
Gated the explosion could have result
ed from dynamite Everything. he
said, pointed toward a violent gaso-
line explosion. He stated that no
gasoline explosion as violent as the
one at Ardmore had ever come to his
attention.
In reply to a question as to what he
thought the most important thing to
do toward safety in the handling Of
gasoline, Professor Humphreys said
reduction in the temperature and
the yapor tension inside the car were
the most important factors to be
taken into consideration As gen
eral rule he said, it would be much
safer to ship gasoline during cold
weather. If necessary to transport
in hot weather, he said, it should be
handled in insulated cooled cars. If
car is left standing for any length
of time it should be protected from
the hot rays of summer sun. 1t would
be well, he suggested, to arrange to
have stream OF cold water playing
on the car if standing for any length
of time.
Professor Humphreys discussed at
length from a scientific viewpoint the
relative force of the explosion, the
area covered, according to the amount
Of pressure and the diffusion of gas
vapor by air currents.
o. K Parks of Chicago, superintend-
ant o, equipment of the German
American Tank Car company, was the
next witness called. He explained to

OFFICERS PURSUE
FORMER CONVICT
FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER
FRANK CHAMNESS BELIEVED
TO BE MAN MAN WHO SHOT
H. l.. M'ALISTER.

Frank VI. Chamness, who served a
term IN the penitentiary last year on
a conviction o. assault with intent to
Kill, is being sought by Sheriff w. W
bishop, several deputies and a large
posse OF men in Hardin and Mathews
townships today, as the would-be
murderer who on Monday shot six
times from ambush at H. L. McAlis-
ter, near Hardinville, wounding Nc
Allster In the leg.
The first report of the crime which
came in late Monday afternoon, stat
ed that McAlister believed r. L. Nc
New, with whom he had trouble last
December, was responsible for the
| shooting. Deputy Sheriff j. /. Sum
mers returned late yesterday from
the scene of the crime and stated that
1t was practically certain that Cham
ness and not McNew was the guilty
party. Chamness, he stated, had made
threats against McAlister and told
his wife and others on Monday that
he was going to kill McAlister. Off
GER Summers stated that the blood
hounds took the trail where the
! would-be assassin had stood, the
point being located by six empty cart
ridges on the ground near tree be-
hind which he had stood, and follow
ed it for five miles, losing the track
at Cadron creek.
Sheriff Bishop and Deputies Roy
fHendrickson and Summers returned
at >once and on account of the tele-
phone lines still being down nothing
could be heard from them today.
Chamness, it is stated, is armed with
a rifle and two pistols and is said to
have told several that would not be
captured alive.
Chamness was indicted on two
counts by the grand jury in January,
1914, and by a coincidence, R. L. Nc
New, the man first accused of the
crime with which Chamness is now
charged, was the prosecuting witness
in both cases. One of the indictments
was Tor grand larceny, the alleged
theft of two pigs belonging to McNew
and the other for an assault with
knife upon McNew. The former
charge was nolle pressed and on his
plea of guilty Chamness was sentenc-
ed to one year on the latter charge.
Chamness had worked for McAlister
and had had dispute with him in
settlement.

FAMOUS CRIPPLE

HEBER SPRINGS EDITOR
JOE F. SULLIVAN EXPECTS TO
RUN FOR SECRETARY OF
STATE OR AUDITOR.

Little Rock, June 2.-The next po-
litical campaign in Arkansas will see
something of novelty in the way of
stumping equippage, for Joe F. Sulli-
van, the Heber Springs journalist,
will be among those touring the state
to ask the support OF the voters. He
will, so far as practicable, use his
team of goats, which have become a
familiar sight on the streets of Heber
Springs and Imboden.
Joe F. Sullivan is an unique char
acter. He has been a cripple from
infancy, but instead of giving way to
his infirmity, he fought back and
managed to secure an excellent COM
mon school education. He trained a
team of goats to pull his wagon, and
drove them about the streets of I'm
boden. Before he was p years of
age he had been elected mayor Of
Imboden, taking the oath of office just
after he had reached his majority.
While making the city good mayor
Mr.. Sullivan devoted considerable OF
his time to the study OF Journalism,
and became the correspondent of
many papers. He next began writing
for magazines and finally appeared
his The Cry Of the Cripple book
in defense of, and appealing for the
cripple. It has been widely circulated
and attracted the Russell Sage four
dation to the youthful writer
Mr.. Sullivan later moved to Heber
Springs where he has continued his
writings, and recently he was made
associate editor of the Van Lueven
Browne magazine of New York, his
work being such that he can carry it
on in Heber Springs.
