TESTS TO BE MADE OF NEW SMOKELESS POWDER Indiana Man's Invention Said to Be Three Times More Powerful than Any Other.

CONTRACT FOR FACTORY Special to the Indianapolis Journal. MONTICELLO, Ind. March 15. -- Attorney George F. Palmer has returned from Washington, to which place he had gone to secure patents on a smokeless powder invented by James P. Mitchell, of Reynolds. He secured the patents and made arrangements for exhaustive tests by the army and navy ordnance departments. Mr. Mitchell, though without the advantage of a chemical laboratory or a scientific education, has discovered a combination which, if all that is claimed for it be true, will be an important factor in future armaments. The powder is a pinkish granular substance. It is claimed that it has three times the explosive power of any powder now in use, is smokeless and odorless, causes no recoil, cannot be exploded by concussion, but only by a spark and that it is therefore much less dangerous to handle than other gunpowders. Another great advantage claimed for it is that moisture does not destroy its explosive properties. It is asserted that after soaking three weeks in water its explosive qualities are absolutely restored by ten minutes' drying. Tests have shown its ability to drive a bullet from a No. 3 Winchester rifle through thirty-six inches of oak, seventy inches of pine, or one-half-inch of steel plate, at a range of thirty feet. Mr. Palmer not only secured patents for his client and also aroused great interest among the ordnance officials of the army any navy, to whom quantities of the powder are to be shipped immediately for exhaustive tests. A company has been organized and will be incorporated this week for the manufacture of the new powder at Monticello, and a plant is already under contract with a producing capacity of 1,000 pounds of the powder dally.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE. Ind., March 15. When Ben Sprirgs, colored, on trial for the murder of Jesse Case, colored, on Feb. 15, was testifying to-day, he became enraged because the court ruled against the admission of evidence of Case's Intimacy with Mrs. Springs, and shouted: "I ain't got any more to say. It's all up," he concluded with an oath, and left the witness stand. The policeman, who had been especially detailed to keep the crowd in the courtroom orderly, immediately surrounded Springs. He was in a desperate frame of mind, but retired with his lawyers for consultation. Judge Piety afterward said he had not heard the oath. The court ruled out the evidence because the defense had not set up a plea of insanity. The case came to an abrupt ending and the Jury went out at 4 p. m.

, iW,-:i.'..,,., : Y:' MKS. JUNE JAMISON GREGO. OF $3,000 TO MRS, GREGG Verdict for Plaintiff in Alienation of Affections Suit Is Returned at Crawfordsville. JURY OUT SIXTEEN HOURS Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind., March 15. The Jury in tho Gregg damage suit brought in a verdict at a:50 this morning giving Mrs. June Gregg $3,000 in her suit against Mrs. Sarah M. Gregg for alienating the affections of her husband, George M. Gregg, the son of the defendant. The jury had been out over sixteen hours and the main, trouble was in determining the amount to give the plaintiff. The first ballot us to whether the defendant had alienated the affections of her son from hi3 wife, stood 10 to 2 that she had, and at the end of the fourth ballot they all agreed. Then the trouble come In fixing the amount that she should have. On the first ballot there were two for $10,000, two for $S,000, three for $t5,000, two for $1,000, one for $2,500, one for $1,W), one for $1,000 and one for $500. The $500 man never gave up until the very last ballot and until all the others had voted for $3,0CO, when he made the change. The demonstration of the people in the courtroom did not have any effect on the Jury and it was very noticeable that the crowd did not come back this morning to hear the verdict. The verdict seems to give general public satisfaction, but the attorneys for the defense say they will ask for a new trial and If that is not granted they will appeal to the Suprem Court. As it now stands the Judgment and costs will foot up to near $4.100, and the costs to the county will reach $l,(x0.

CASE OF LUPUS CURED

WITH THE Fl Rushvillc Doctors Exercised Over the Success of Treatment of Charles K. Nesbitt. COMPLETE CURE MADE Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RUSHV1LLE, Ind., March 15. Doctors here are greatly interested in a case of lupus, or superficial consumption, with which a prominent citizen had been efflicted for years, nd which has been cured by the Finsen and Minin rays nfter years of treatment with ineffectual salves and medicines. The patient was Charles L. Nesbitt, traveling passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg. His right leg was attacked with lupus and the disease withstood the innumerable methods of ordinary treatment. As a last resort he concluded to try the Finsen rays, discovered by the distinguished Dane. Dr. Finsen, and he went to Cincinnati' for treatment. The first application of the rays was made over three months ago and Mr. Nesbitt has since then made three trips to Cincinnati each week for treatment until now a cure has been effected which, after having been viewed by a large number of medical men, is declared to be a remarkable demonstration of the value of the Finsen rays. The case seemed hopeless when first subjected to the treatment. The Finsen rays are produced by an electric arc light. The ordinary light rays are projected through a sheet of falling water and this extracts the heat rays. The purpose is, to get a compact concentration of the chemical or ultra-violet rays, and these rays, termed Finsen rays, are permitted to shine on the alliicted part. They destroy germs and foreign tissue and encourage the growth of healthy tissue. Beside this treatment Mr. Nesbitt was also subjected to the treatment discovered by Professor Minin, of St. Petersburg. This consists of throwing heat rays from a blue incandescent lamp on the affiicted part to stimulate a flow of blood and promote a healthy growth and is supplemental to the Finsen treatment.
