Composition The -words "infernal machine" have beenbuzzing in the popular ear for several years past, and sanguinary demagogues, Communistic and Nihil istic, have rolled the lugubrious term like a sweet morsel upon their -wagging tongues; but the public has been kept in utter ignorance as to the exact nature of these explosive compounds, which are beginning to play such an important part in the every day political history of Great Brit in and the Continent. The ne farious business has developed to an unsuspected extent, but its growth has been silent It was not until within the last twelvemonth, when this country was made the principal basis of operations, that the English detectives, able to see from afar those things which had flourished unob served under their very noses, grasped the full importance of tho movement and published it to tho world. Even all the blatant utterances of O'Don ovan Kossa, mild-mannered man that ho is, -pregnant with prophecies of huge and terrible machines of des truction, have not, queerly enough, directed the attention of tno public to a proper appreciation of the secret work of which he is the open apostle In New York city to-day, and in Philadelphia, infernal machines of every conceivable pattern are being manufactured, in many instances within a stone' throw of the head quarters of the law. Every day there go out from the ports of these two cities not less than two dozen of these machines, any one of them of the power of that "which caused the recent explosion in tho government build ings in London. Onco in a while a machine is discovered on a ship about to sail. The officers seize it, but the other eleven machines on the same ship they fail to find for good and sufficient reasons. Tho one ma chine was so placed that the custom house officials could not reasonably overlook it It was carelessly packed, thereby giving the impression that all such machines are carelessly packed, or that they can bo easily discovered. In this way the law is thrown off the scent How easy is such an undertaking will most clear ly appear from a description oa few of the machines, such as are in great demand among the .Fenians, and Nihilists of Russia. The most common form of infernal machine is that know as THE "TICKER." To all intents and purposes It is an ordinary tin can, very like that in which astral oil is sold. The can, for such it is, is made of heavy galvan ized iron, one-sixteenth of an inch in thickness. It is one foot high and four inches square. This machine, as well as all of those now made in this country, is filled with a new powder, invented by George Holgate of Phila delphia. It has the form of ordinary gunpowder, is of a dark brown color, only explodes in connection with the simultaneous application of fire and water, and is estimated to be two hundred times as powerful as giant powder. The can holds, therefore, the equivalent of nine hundred pounds at powder. Upon one side and near the top of the can is attached by, means of brass screws, an ordinary clock-Bpring movement Above this movement and connected with it is a small, round brass wheel, about an inchin diameter, .having upon one portion of the' circumference a slot or notch. A spring presses upon the edge of the wheel, which revolves. When the slot is reached in the cir cuit the- spring falls into it with a snap, which in turn releases another spring, falling upon a nipple upon which is a gun-cap. The nipple is of iron and extends down into the pow der, and the explosion of the cap in stantaneously sets off the compound in the bottom of the can. Tho ma chine can be set any where between one minute and thirty-six hours. When all is ready the operator closes the'lid, fastens it with an iron locker and deposits it where he may desire toioause the explosion. It can be kicked, rolled around or hammered, but until the spring falls into tho slot and. explodes the cap there is no dan- germ its handling. By putting the ear close to the lid the melancholy "tick'-tickof the clock can be heard, but this is not noticeable at a distance of sir feet The machine is air-tight, and water, .or any like fluid, has no effect on tho explosive compound, ven were it nol hermetically sealed. , It can be securely packed in a barrel of lard, a barrel of jxjtroleum, a box of tobacco, a bag of flour, or with any of those articles of export which are not likely to attract attention. The power of such a machine depends, of courserupou the nature of the on- iined space an which it is placed. THE MOST POWERFUL IXFERXAIi MA' CHINE xxwaeis; is wnai is Known as an Mht-day machine." Like the "ticker," it can, however, be set from one minute upward. A machine of this description, recently made by Holgate . of Philadelpniaj was 14 inches high, 4 inches squart, and cou- tained.the equivalent of 3,000 pounds of gunpowder. It can, however, e either a square or spherical shape. It is made of galvanized ircu or stout tin. The clock movement is so 'arranged that it can be taken out anoTaway from the machine, and con nected again at -a moment's notice. The operator, if he desires to divert suspicion carries the empty can in his hand and the clock movement in his coat-tail pocket The explosion is caused by detonation. A sliding bar of brass, drawn by a screw at tached to the movement, when it ar rives at the slot in the small brass disk, springs upon a delicate glass rial, made'f aiairtube. The vial, which contains a powerful acid, and it'berraetically sealed, in breaking al JoW the -acid to escape. This causes the""&etonation, and the explosion fol lows. The wire on top of the mo res-teat; which is held in place by a rub ber band, connects with the cap. The ie?3 Tins into a chlorate of potash combination. This machine can be sunk in water, or secreted in an fluid or compound in a box of oranges, a keg of nails, or a loaf of bread. The force of the explosion would be sufficient to tear the largest building in the world to atoms. If placed, in the basement of the Capitol at "Washington and set off, not one stone would bo left standing upon1 an other. A most peculiarly constructed machine is the "Little Exlermiu ator." It is two inches high and four inches square, of thin sheet brass, nickeled on the insido and outside, and has no lid only a minute hole in one corner. The machine is filled with a volatile oil, the fumes of which cause instantaneous death. The principle is the same as that of the ancient Chinese "stinkpot" A thin brass tube runs in through the small hole in one corner, having upon its outer end a screw cap. Upon tho cap is a delicate watch movement A spring falls into a slot and releases a minute steel spring saw, which is op erated by the movement, and saws off tho delicate tube. This estab lishes direct communication with the oxygen of tho air, -which ignites tbo volatile. The most sickening per fumes pour out from the box, killing every person within a radius of 100 feet The sensation of this volatile is like that caused by Cayenne pep per. There is an intense burning in the mouth, ears aud eyes and around tho heart Respiration 13 snatched away as if by a puff of hot air. Ex periments havo been made upon cats. They die in less than three seconds. There is a class of infernal machines known as "bottle HACIiriE3.v Tho most ordinary forms arc inclosed in pint beer-bottles, which can be conveniently carried in the coat- pocket The neck of the bottle is hermetically sealed with a rubber cork, through which runs a brass tube divided into two parts by a thin metallic disk, usually made of brass. The top compartment of the tube is shut off from the air by means of a screw tap, through which, in turn, runs a key. Also contained in this upper compartment is a small vial of powerful'acid. By turning the key the vial is broken, and the acid, fall-, iug upon the disk, eats into the pow dsr, which is packed closely. The time of explosion depends upon the thickness of the disk. The acid, the instaat it com2.s in contact with the powder, explodes it A large number of these machines were made for the Nihilists, to bo used at the coronation ' of the czar. The newest invention and one which has met with much favor in St Petersburg, is what is called the "Hat Exploder." Two ex ceedingly thin circular disks of sheet t brass, having a layer of powder an inch thick, are soldered and riveted hermetically together, and sewn in the top of an ordinary hat The en tire weight of the machine, although it i contains the equivalent of eighty, pounds of powder, is only sixteen ' ounces. The hat is waved or thrown up in the air. Falling it explodes. ' The device looks for all the world j like two pancakes stuck together. A ' great many hand-grenades are made in New York. They are hollow balls of iron, through which runs a tube, ' surmounted by a brass button. The button is lead. Tho grenade falls by force of gravity upon tho side on which is the heavy lead button. Tho button is pressed, breaks a vial of ' acid, and the acid causes the ex-' plosion. A grenade three and ona hulf inches in diameter contains the onuivalent of 100 pounds of powder, j Tho eight-day machine has been made to contain Greek fire, which is set off by the clock work, burning down tho building in which it is placed. In this instance there is no explosion. It is wonderful to what extremes of in genuity tho inventors of infernal ma chines have gone. Machines have been and are being made in the shapo of chunks of coal. They explode when thrown on the fire. Holgate has made a novel machine in the ' nects with a vial inside, or with a spring falling into a slot Lifting the satchel, or touching the handle explodes it Not long ago in Now York a machine of the pancake pat tern was so constructed as to be made into SHOE SOLE3. Walking on tho soles for a certain length of time causes them to ex plode, and woe be unto tho unfortu nate possessor. The demand for in fernal machines increases constantly, and from tho most unexpected sources. There are living in Novr York and Philadelphia representa tives of all the revolutionary socie ties in the world. They are not con fined to Europe, but extend through Mexico and South America. A con siderable number of eight-day and thirty-hour machines havo been made in Philadelphia, and sent to San Do mingo and Hayti A large order is now awaiting shipment into Mexico. Peru alone of the South American countries has used them. There wero sent at one time into that kingdom a dozen of the eight-day machines, and this within six months. Italy, Germany, and Austria buy plen teously. From certain indications it would appear that some sort of a ovement is speedily contemplated in Italy. An unusually large number of machines have been bought in Philadelphia to bo sent to that coun try, auu oruera &ro coming in con- t-tantl'. Holgate was osked the other dty what would be the effect of the explosive act now before the Pennsyl vania legislature. He said: "It will be inoperative. My machines are not infertal machines until they are made so. Anything can be made into an internal machine an orange, a hat, aboot, a coat, a shovel, a pound of strar anything, in fact To crush he business in this way is im- Vosso$; Cincinnati Enquirer.
