A test was made yesierday at Fort Hamilton of anew high explosive—terrorite. Col. H. L. Abbott and Col. Alfred Mordecai of the United ates engineers conducted the experiments. Ithough neither Col. Abbott nor Col. Mordecai would say much abont tlie test, they were | convinced that this new explosive is very pow- | erful. ‘The inventor is Prof. D. Mindeleff of San Francisco. His assistant is H. G. Gerdes. Ac- cording to the inventor's claim one-eighth of a pound of terrorite is more destructive than one full pound of giant powder. He also says that it is not affected by shock, jarring, or Jolting.or other mechanical influences. When exploded it is smokelcas. It does not explode by direct application of fire, but burns steadily until the heat developed exceeds white heat. Only the inventor, Mr. Gerdes, and_the en- gineers were present at the test, which took lace on the slope of the ramparts near the post | akery. Three charges were fired. The tirst | two were made.with the composition in that | state of consistency known to the inventor as | “C,” which is a gelatinous mass. That state of the explosive known as “I” ie about the con- sistency of honey. In preparing for the first teat twelve pounds reven and a half ounces of the explosve were | pnt in a conical shell whose cavity was thirteen and a half inches loug and five inches wide and whose side wall was three inches thick. A-six-foot hole, just large enough to | admit the shell, was dug “in the ground, and at the bottom was placed a block of wood on which the shell rested, apex down. The hole was filled up with loose dry sand. The shell was connected by wires with an clectrie_bat- tery. Col. Mordecai fired the shell. There was a dull, muftled sound, not very loud, and the dirt and sand were thrown abot seventy- five tect in the air. ‘The wkell had done its work well. ‘There was a circular hole in the ground. Upon measuring it was found to have om the surface an average radins of ‘six feet six inches. The record test was made ina seven-foot hole, with the same kind of shell, loaded with eleven pounds thirteen ounces of ‘this destrac- tive agent. ‘The hole made by the explosion this time had an average radius of six feet thrze inches. ‘The third and lust test was made with a seven-foot hole, the sume kind of a shell and twelve pounds six ounces of the explosive in the “8” state. ‘The result of this explosion showed that the more nearly to a liquid the composition is the more explosive power it | possesses. This hole had a radius of seven feet six inches. ‘That completed the tests yesterday. Col. Ab- Col. Mordecai will study the matter and will let Mr. Gerdes know what next will be done, which will probably be to fire the explo- sive from a gun. In terrorite there is eighty per cent of nitro- glycerine, purified by a pectlinr process. is pyroxaline, which is cotton fiber treated the Ground at ith nitric and suiphurie acids in such a manner as * FASSETT’S BOOM UNSTEADY. Change of Feeling Among the Republican Delegates at Rochester. The Fussett boom, which assumed such great Proportions yesterday morning among the re- publicans at Rochester, N. Y., suddenly, dimin- ished asevening came on. It had been a mat- ter of speculation all day whether the name of any other candidate would po'presented to the convention. A general belief prevailed early that Mr. White's name would not be put before the convention, but his friends insisted that it would and that a test of his strength would be made, if only out of compliment to him. An attempt was made early in the afternoon to persuade Gen. Wadsworth to withdraw from the contest for the governorship and accept the second place on the ticket with Fassett. But he stated positively that his name must go before the convention for the governorship. Mr. Fassett’s friends then turned their atten- tion to Einstein as the most likely candidate for lieutenant governor. FIST CHECK TO THE FASSETT nooM. The action of Gen. Wadsworth was the first check to the Fassett boom, because Fassett had been carrying everything before him with such confidence that his friends had ciscnssed the possibility of nominating him by acclamation. lowever, they were not greatly discourazed by this and ‘they endeavored to keep up the Fas- sett enthusiasm in spite of the failure of the combination with Wadsworth. Before the ar- rival of the Becker delegation from Buffalo State Sonator Laughlin, Mr. Becker's right- hand man, settled finklly the question of Mr. Fassett’s nomination by acclamation. He said | that the talk of Becker as a candidate for lieu- tenant governor was without authority: that Lecker was in the contest for governor and would remain. CONFERNING AS TO PERMANENT CHAIRMAN. A number of conferences were held during he day to consider the selection of a permanent chairman. The honor had been offered to United States Senator Frank Hiscock, but he declined it. ‘Then the list of delegates ‘canvassed and four uames picked out—those of Gen. James W. Husted, Gen. James M. Varnum, Congressman Payn and State Senator George Sloan. Shortly ufter 3 o'clock it was aunounced that Gen. Varnum would be chosen. PLATT PREDICTS FASSETT'S NOMINATION. Ex-United States Senator Thos. C. Platt said in the afternoon: “There is now little doubt of Mr. Fassett’s nomination. It seems to be con- ceced. Mr. Wadsworth won't take the lieuten- ant governorship. Mr. Becker can have it if he wants it. It is not settled that Mr, Einstein will be controller. Jolin W. Vrooman can have the secretaryship of state if he wants it. Wm. A. Sutherland will probably be attorney ge and Gen. Hodges will probably be nom- inated for treasurer. I dont know what the platform will do about the high license ques- tion. No one can tell yet. ‘The administra- tion will, of course, be heartily indorsed. Sec- retary Blaine and reciprocity will receive com- mendation. Ido not know that the electrocu- tion question wili come in the convention.” AMENDING THE ELECTROCUTION LAW. Henry Clinton Backus of New York has pre- pared a resolution advocating the repeal of part of the clectrie exeoution law, which he ex- pects to introduce in the convention. wants that part of the law repealed wl to become soluble in six parts of alcohol and two parts of ether. ree TWENTY DAYS FROM CHINA. The Mails Are Sent Across Two Occaus and Arrive at Queenstown, The City of New York arrived at Queenstown yesterday afternoon at2o'elock, having crossed the Atlantic in 5 days, 22 hours and 50 minutes, equaling the best previous eastward passage. The City of New York left New York on Sep- tember 2. Her daily runs were 440 miles, 436, 461, 460, 462 and 452. ‘The City of New York had on board the mail of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's steamship Empress of Japan, which mails left Yokohama, Japan, on August 19. The Em- press of Japan's mails reached Victoria, B. C., at 4:20. m. August 29, the steamship's time being 9 days, 19 hours and 24 minutes, many hours better than the best previous record across the Pacific. ‘This rapid time made the Canadian Pacifiz Railway Company's officials determined to send a special train across the continent in order to try to catch the City of New York at New York, sailing September 2 instead of catching the Hamburg-American steamship Columbia, which sailed September 3. ‘This special train left Vancouver early in the after- noon of August 29, and, with the assistance of the New York Central railroad, the Empress of Japan's mails reached the latter city at 4:51 a.m. Wednesday, September 2, and at 5:10 a, m., nineteen minutes later, the mail bags were delivered on board the City of New York and have thus reached Queenstown in twenty days from Yokohame. MRS. HOPKI Searles Said to Have Found It Out and Be- came a Medium. A San Francisco Dispatch to the New York Times. Sensational facts in connection with the life and death of Mrs. Hopkins-Searles were made public today. It was an open secret to Mra. Hopkins’ nearest friends that she was mentally unsound prior to her marriage with Searles, -s00 A SPIRITUALIST, | and her union with the paper hanger was not therefore a surprise. For fully a yeor pre- vious to her marriage she had been an ardent believer in spiritualism and kept a private me- dium in her house. After the death of Mark Hopkins the widow had lived in the elegant mansion on Nob Hill in this city, and with her the two boys of ber old family physician, Dr. Crook The younger of these boys learned of Mrs. Hopkins’ desire to know whether there was any connection be- tween this life and the one to’come and soon qualified himself as au expert test medium.

He joined the mystic circle of ev: at the big house on ths hill and proclaimed himse f not only a believer, but an apostle, of | spiritualism. —Netuxally he became a veleome | addition to the family scauces. Young Crook, the “medium,” iz relating these circumstances yesterday suid: “Phe gitt of a house to Timothy Hopkin» came about ina peculiar way. Mrs. Hopkius-Searles and myselt were seated at the seance table one night, when suddenly she asked the mpivit of my tether if she should deed the Menlo Park residence to her sou Timothy at once or wait util ft was owned by the state. Searles heard the question and quick aga flash I saw that he wanted a negative answer. “Something told me then that Searles had his eye on the widow's estate and did not want ‘Tim Hopkins to grow any closer to his mother. Talso knew that if Searles wor he would have no further use for me. Answers alwaye came by the table tipping, and I determined it should be in favor of Tim.” It then besame a question of mugele between Searles and myxelf, but I was too much for him, and in spite of hisefforts to hold the table down I tippe this answer was given the seance for ihe on I watched $ cendency over Mrs. Hopkins, and when he had carried his point he found an excuse for send- ing me away. CP. Huntington knew all about this, and I believe ‘he, too, was a Leliever in spiritualiem at cne time.” 2. Alleged Abuses in the Steerage. Three female steerage passengers, who came to w York recently on the Anchor line steamer Ethiopia, have preferred serious charges against the surgeon and steerage officers of that vessel. Mrs. Margaret Ham of 106 East street, Baltimore, complained to the officials at the lending bureau that during the passage from Glasgow to New York she had been a] proached repeatedly and discourteously by offi- cials or members of the crew, who only desisted When threatened by exposure to the captain. She also complained of neglect on the part of the ship's surgeon when called on to treat an immigrant women ill. She also charges the stewardess with the extortion of money for food taken from the sbip's stores ‘Two sis- Tienry Preble of N.Y., has beon ar- rested at WU, charged with forg- check on Griftia Brothers: "Bt Date hue fuifered =r His ne hostile eriticivme in reviewing tie interastional congregetior council - tended to.prohibit the publication of the de- tails of the execution, and he wants the selec- tion of witnesses put In other hands than thos: of the warden. He says he does not know the sentiment of the delegates on the subject. THE RUSSIAN HEBREWS. Wm. A. Sutherland, chairman of the Roches- ter delegation, decided to introduce the reso- lntion regarding Russian Hebrews in the fol- lowing form today: “That the cruelties to and persecutions of classes, sects and persons, as instanced by the inhuman and barbarous treat- ment of the Jews in Russia, areabhorrent to the sentiments which the government of this na- tion was established to defend and repugnant to the principles for the success of which the republican party has ever existed and con- tinued, and which through its efforts have been secured to persons of all degree within the boundaries of the United States and its terri- tories. that the national government should lend its aid by communications, instructions and by all means properly at its disposal to secure the oppressed and down-trodden of foreign nations the largest possible measure of freedom in the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness and equal protection under the law. “That a copy of this declaration be trans- mitted to the President of the United States. Daniel L. Benton of Hornelisville expects to makea fight for the nomination for attorney general. He was canvassing for votes yester- day. Andrew D. White has not yet reached Rochester. He has been attending the funeral of Judge Boardman in Ithaca. BECKER'S FORCES ARRIVE. The Becker forces came in from Buffalo at about 5 o'clock in the afternoon. They did not muster so many as had been expected. ‘They had promised a delegation of 600 oa the afternoon train and 200 more at 9 o'clock last night. Thore were only 300 men in the first delegation. They marched behind a brass band and a drum corps from the station to the Powers Hotel carrying canes and wearing big white badges with Becker's picture printed on them. ‘They also carried a very small trans- parency with mottoes on it appropriate to the candidacy of Becker. The delegation was met with the rather cheerless announcement that the political gossips discussing Mr. Becker's chances had got down tc the point of regarding him as available for controlier. They smiled confidently and taking off their coats went to work with a will. ‘Ihe Becker headquarters were established at the Powers Hotel, from which Becker enthusiasm filtered through the crowd in the hotel rotunda. FROST ON THE FASSETT Boos. AtGo'clock the Fassett boom was booming with great vigor. ~At7 o'clock a sudden frost seized it. At 7:30 delegates were shaking their heads and beginning to talk of a dark horse. “The slate sceme to be breaking,” was the com- ment heard in the rotunda of the Powers Hotel. The early evening trains had brought in more than a hundred delegates. The m: jority of them were Becker men, but they were all auti-Fassett. ‘They did not wait for supper, but went to work earnestly among the other delegates. The tide of anti-Fassett that set in ‘was so strong that it was whispered about at first that there was likely to be a fightin the convention, and this feelmg grew stronger ns the hours went, until before the meeting of the state committee at 8o'clock there was a general shaking of heads and the talk of a dark horse began to spread through the hotel rotundas. ‘THE STATE COMBUTTEE MEETING. The state committee met at8 o'clock. The committee on platform, when appointed, will find its work pretty well cut out for it. John A. Sleicher, Carroll E. Smith and W. A. Suth- ferland were working over the platform all day putting it into shape. Itwas understood that one paragraph would indorse the administra- tion Btrongly, making especial reference to the speeches which President Harrison has made while traveling over the country; will indorse Secretary Tracy in his administration of the Navy Department; will indorse Secrétary Blaine and his reciprocity scheme, and will ré- fer in terms of commendation to the adminis- tration of the affairs of the ‘Treasury Depart- ment. Another phragraph will demand fhat gold and silver be maintained on an equality. WHITE'S WITHDRAWAL DiscUssED. By 11 o'clock last night it became generally knowa that the name of Mr. White would not be put before the convention today. It was re- rted that Mr. Platt had a letter from Mr. White withdrawing his name. Mr. Platt said at 11:30 o'clock to a correspondent: “Such a letter was to have been written and sent to Mr. Howell. It has not come yet.” Mr. Howell said: “If such a letter is received in the morning I will read it to the convention. I do not know that it has been written. I have | not heard from Mr. White today except by word of mouth, and then his position was un- changed—he was in the hands of his friends. Mr. Fassett will be nomixuted tomorrow with- out doubt.” BECKER WILL BE GOVERNOR OR NOTHING. Atla.m. Mr. Sloan stated positively toa ‘re- porter that he had declined the nomination for lieutenant governor. When this became known to the Platt people they offered the nom- ination to Becker. At the same time the War- ner Miller suggested Vrooman. But the Erie county pe Ney who are. very angry about the Fassett combination, declitied to compromise, and Mr. Vroaman, ‘it is under- will not be persuaded.
