burn lias Prepared Complaint
Against Pciinoyer, MeBridc and
Matschau.
Kalkm, Or., .June!!. Attorney-General
Black burn Iiiih prepared a complaint in
an notion against Sylvester lVnnoyer,
George W. MeBride and Phil MetBchan,
the men who coitHtituted the state land
board at the limo of the Davis defalca
tion, and will send it. to District At
torney Chumbyrlain tomorrow for eon
flideration. The action will be brought in
Multnomah county and Difch ict Attorney
Chamberlain will ho associated with the
attorney-general us attorney for the
etute.
The complaint will be framed upon the
theory that the clerk of the tchool land
board wub the agent of the board and
not tin agent of the state; that hie de
falcation wub a defalcation of the liourd,
for which the mem here of the board are
distinctly responsible to tho state. While
b'I thedetuilt) of the cmipVnt cann t
now be given, it is kiiuwii that Judge
liluckburn has drawn the pupers so that
they Btato ull the fuuta regarding tho
shortage. The questions involved, there
fore, ntHy be tried on a demurrer, thus
making It possibly unnecessary to incur
the expense of a trial.
The complaint will state that the
ehortuge occurred In 1801, so that the
defendant may raise the question of the
statute of limitations by demurrer. It
will Htate the facts regarding the legh
lattve investigation of 1895, so that it the
defendants believe that investigation
and the report of the committee amounts
to a settlement, they can raise that
question by demurrer. Judge Blackburn
believes the board Is liable and he has
endeavored to frame his complaint so
that the question may be speedily
determined
Mckel-tu ttm-Hlot Maclilue.
Saucm, Or., June8.-That It U not
unlawful to operate a nlckel-in-the-slot
machine, unless there Is an element of
chance in the game, was the effect of a
decision rendered by Judge Burnett, in
received no more and no lees, whatever
set of cards might come up.
Tn rendering his decieion sustaining a
demurrer to tho complpiut, Judge
Burnett paid that the evil aimed at by
the act of the last legislature is the use
of the machines which are gumbliug
devices, and so long as tho machines are
used without an element of chance,
there ie no violation of the law. He look
as an illustration the operation of a
niekel-in-the-slot machine by which a
player may ascertain hie weight. He
gets what he pays for, there is no ele
ment of chance, and hence no violation
of law.
As soon as Judge Burnett's decision
became known several machines were
put in operation in cigar stores on the
sumo plan ua the machine formerly run
by Nichols.

MAXIMITE
Xew Explosive Adopted by United States
Government Shell Explodes After
Piercing Twelve-Inch Plate.
New Yoiik, June I. The Prees eays:
Maximite, the new explosive invented
by Hudson Maxim, had been adooted by
this country, after a series of successful
tests at the Sandy Hook Proving
Grounde. The secret of the explosive
has been sold to the government by the
inventor, and the explosive, it is thought,
may revolutionize warfare. It is said to
be more deadly in its character than
lyddite, yet eo safely can it be handled
that the danger attending its uee is less
than that incurred in transporting
ordinary black powder. The tests
indicate that the explosive will pierce a
12-inch harveyized nickel steel armor
plate, and having passed through it will
explode on the other side with sufficient
power to destroy eveiy thing with which
it comes in contact. Never before has a
plate of this strength and thickness been
pierced.
The tests have been made by the
Ordinance Board, and have been con
ducted with great secrecy. Tne opinion
is expressed by experts that maximite
may revolutionize the building of battle
ships and fortifications. The insentitive
ness ot this explosive is so great that a
red-hot iron may be trust into a mass of
it without causing an explosion. The
explosion of the compound after passing
through the plate is accomplished by
means of a fuse. Shell filled with lyd
dite, the high explosive adopted by the
British government, filled in the same
way be was maximite, into the same
shells and fired at a plate an inch and a
half in thickness, all exploded on impact
where the maximite shell paesed through
the steels plates a foot in thickness.
These tests of maximite are regarded as
having demonstrated tltHt there is no
warship of any navy capable of with
standing its destructive force. Mr.
Maxim conducted these experiments in
person, there being no one present ex
cept the ordinance officers and experts
representing the government.
In an interview Mr. Maxim said:
"Should the United States now be
come involved in war with any other
power, we shall be able to throw high
explosive projectiles through the thickest
armor of our enemies to explode inside
their warships, while they in turu would
be able only to penetrate our armor with
solid shot or at least carrying no burst
ing charge whatever."
It is the inventor's opinion that the
moral of these new developments is that
tho ponderous battle ship niUHt go and
be replaced by the small, swift torpedo
boat or torpedo gunboat and cruiser.
