In yesterday's trial a ohnrgu of
twenty-ouo pounds df the amokeless
powder gave a projecUlo weighing
100 nonnds n velocity of 2310 feet
per second, with a chamher pressure
of only 14.4 tons to the square Inch.
This result Is considered better than
any obtained with the French pow
der, the best of the foreign smoke
less powders, so far as published
reports Indicate. Tho ordinary
charge of cocoa powder for tho six

gives a 100-pound projectile a 2000

more than half a ton smaller. In
the firings of the 0-Inch gun reported
hist week, a velocity of 2425 feet per

great.

New Yonic, April 8. Amjug
some of the big handlers of sugai

TROUTDALU DISTILLERY.
Burned Last Night, Origin of tho
Tiro Unknown.
Portland. April 8. The largo
plant of tho Portland Distillery and
Cattle Feeding company at Trotit
dalo was destroyed by fire last night.
Flames broke out In tho molu build
ing of the distillery about 8:40, and
by midnight the entire structure
was In ashoj. The fire was not dls
covered until It was too late to save
tho building, and its origin is
-throuded In mystery. It Is reporttd
that the building was fired by In
cendiaries, as there was no one
known to be in it for some time be
foro tho fire was discovered. In a
ery short time the whole structure
,vas one mass of flames. Tho sky
vos illuminated for miles, and h
drong east wind carried sparks aud
mbers to the pr -perty adjoining.
For a while it looked as If the build
ingsof tho American Dressed Mea
ompany and tho Union Pacific
lepot would go down before th
flames too, but through tho hero!
.fibrts or a large force of willing
Mclpers these buildings wore saved
V well organized bucket bilgad
.vasnll that staged the pnigress ol
he fire, and those who constituted
i his body worked like Trojans utitll
dl danger was passed. Tho roof ol
the depot aud freight house took tin
several times and the roof of tin
American Dressed Beof, company's
plant was ablaze once. Through
hard work, however, tho little bri
trade of fire fighters eonflued the
flames to tho building in which the
fire hnd started.
Engine No. 1 of tho Portland fin
department arrived on tho scene ol
tho fire, drawn by Union Pacific
engine 372, at 10:40 p. in., having
made the run from Albiua in about
tweuty-four minutes. It was too
late to save the distillery buildings,
but In plenty of time to reuder
much valuable assistance in extin
guishing tho flames and thereby
ensuring tho safely of tho balance
of tho town, The firemen were
very prompt and lost no time lu
getting a stream of water playing
upon the lulus, and by 12:15 a. m.
the last flames were extinguished.
No casualties or loss of life aro as
yet reported. The Araericau Dressed
Meat company owes tho safety of its
buildings to tho heroic eflorts of Its
employes, assisted by some of tho
citizens of the town. Their work
during tho most critical period is
worthy of great pralso, aud the
more so that tho position they were
obliged to occupy was very danger
ous, owing to the Intense heat. The
men who succeeded in saving th
cooper shop aro also deserving of
great credit, for had this gone the
lower part of tho town would have
beon doomed. Tho citizens feel
uuder great obligations to tho chief
of tho Portland fire department,
aud also to the ofilulalsof the Union
Paclllo Railroad company for their
prompt nttentlou to their appeal for
aid.

CHINESE EXCLUSION.
Why Dolph's Bill Was Rushed
Through the Senato.
Washington, April 8. Senator
Dolph was asked if tho foreigu
relatlous committee had acted on
the .Geary Chinese bill. Dolph
answered that tho committee had
not met, ns Chairman Sherman had
left tho capitol without calling a
commlttco meeting. "The senate
cannot be hurried In this matter,"
he replied. "It has already passed
a Chinese bill and had n right to
expect the house to amend that bill
aud pass it so ns to secure an imme
diate conference, instead of which
it passes the Geary bill, which
comes Into tho senato as a new bill
which must be referred, reported, go
on the calendar and take lis chances
lam moved," added Dolph, "to be
lieve th.it Geary either did not want
any Chinese legislation this session,
or else is striving to make politic!
capital. If he wanted to expedite
matter, why did he not when the
senate bill reached the house strike
out all but the enacting clause and
amend by Inserting the provisions
of his bill ? That is frequently dom.
If it had been lu this instance w
might have been lu conference ou l
today. Now it is Impossible to sa
when the senate will act, having
silver, tariff, appropriations and
other important matters to take up
its time."
After leaving Dolph, the corie
spondent called upon Geary asked
him If ho had any reply to make to
Dolph's charges. Geary expressed
surprise that Dolph should make
such statements, in view of the re
cord of both houses in this regard
"The facts are," said Geary, "that
my bill hud been reported favorubl.v
by the foreign affairs committee of
the house uud placed Upon final
passagefull two weeks before Dolph's
bill was received from the senate.
With my bill so advanced there was
no obligation of presldence, courtesy
or expediency requiring me to sacri
fice my bill nnd amend the Dolph
bill. To be sure, that would have
carried my provisions, but we are
not required to make capital for Re
publican seuntors. There is another
peint: Two weeks after my bill was
on the house calendar, Dolph rushed
his bill through the senate, and the
record shows that neither of the
California senators opened his
mouth ou bis subject. Why did
they not amend the Dolph bill?
They knew it was not what the
people of California wanted, for it
only extends for ten years tho
present notoriously imperfect bill.
The truth is that, when it found tho
Democratic bouse was about to pass
n rigid exclusion act, the order went
out in the senate to rush through
without debate or amendment the
Republican bill, known to be what
w.is not wnnted. Before Dolph
again lectures tho house he better
see that the record hicks up his
statement."
FUN IN THE HOUSE.
The New York Voice and Funston,
of Kansas.
Washington, April 8. In the
house yesterday Mr. Funston, of
Kansas, rising to a question of priv
ilege, sent to the clerk's desk aud
had read uu articlo published In the
the New York Voice, which for ten
minutes kept the house in n whirl
wind of laughter and merriment.
The article, which was headed "A
Few of the Congressional Tipplers,"
goes on to mention tho names of a
dozen or moro senators aud an equal
number of representatives who at
tho senate and house restaurants
hni o been seeu indulging in intoxi
cating liquors. His (Fuustou's)
namo was ouo of those mentioned,
aud ho believed the articlo was in
tended to allect the primaries in his
district (laughter). After many
good nntured remarks by different
representatives, Mr. Fuutton, lu tin
measmed terms and in language
more forcible than pollt, denounced
tho corresjoudout of The Voice, and
called upon decent correspondents
to kick him out of towu.
Mr. Lewis, of Mississippi, sug
tested that the correspondent was a
woman.
Mr. Funston "It makes no differ
euco whether she Is a lady or a street
walker, I am staudlng here in my
own defense."
Wheeler mado a point of ordor
that the gentleman shoud not u-o
such laiigiiiifc.o on the fkor of tho
house.
Mr. Fun M on said he was Informed
the correspondent whs a inau, and
not a woman. He had be n told
the name of the man who winte the
article. Funston then took h s seat,
amid hisses.

NEW YORK ELECTION INQUIRY
Beforo the Joint Judiciary Commit
tee of the Legislature.
Albany, N. Y. April 8. When
the joint judiciary committee of tht
legislature met yesterday afternoon
it resumed the hearing of the Maj
nard election returns inquiry. Mr.
Saxton, Republican, demanded to
know if the Ilpublicnu minority
would be permitted to summon
witnesse". He said that one tblug
to be proved was that certain allega
tions of fads in Judge M.iyi.ard'
letter of vindication of himself were
false. That while in the Imue lettei
May nard pleaded that he was sur
prised nt certain points by the move
incut of the Republican counsel,
aud his acts were thus shaped lu
part or whole, he hud in his posses
sion written or printed information
of movements to bo made in tin
election returns case.
Senator Saxton moved that the
minority bo permitted to cull wit
nesses. Tho motion wns defeated.
Senator Tuller tried to get a vote on
the question whether the minority
w ould be allowed to present a report,
but failed. Republicans tried to find
out when the committee would
meet, and what It intended to do
Chairman Rosch promised that the
committee would not meet again
tills week, but all he could say about
the report was that Republicans pro
tested that they were not being
fairly treated, and that it had been
understood that the minority would
be allowed to call witnesses. The
hearing was finally adjourned, sub
Ject to the call of the chair.
