BIG FACTOR IN WAR AND PEACE WABHINGTON, Sebt. 30.—While several million pounds . of powder are being | burned weekly on the battle fields of | Durope, and discussion Is rife on the | American manufacture of the same, in articles on explosives recentiy issued by the Smithsonlan Institution gives much timely information on the subject. The paper is written by Major Edward P. O'Hern of the Ordnance department, United States army, and deals with the | importance of the so-called explosives and the increasing oxtent of their use and production, as well as their composition uses, method of employment, and the re suita accomplished “An explosive,” says Major O'Hern, “is & substance of which the molecules arc made up of a number of atoms or units rather ioosely bound together In an un stable condition, ready to seek new ani simpler combinations upon the furnishing of a suificlent motive force to start the operation. This s usually supplied through & primer ignited by & slow<burn- - ing fuse, or by & wire heated by an elec- tric current. When started, the heat nnd shock developed will cause a eontinuation of the action throughout the mask of the explosive. The enormous-power that can this be developed from a edmparatively small quantity of material is indicated by the thousands of raxments into whilch | & twelve-thch armor-plercing profettile was broken by the detonation of a burst ing charge about 5% per cemt of ity welght.” ihres Clusses of Explosives, | The nuthor divides explosives into three tlagses, proviésdive ‘or * progd Mne explos vives, known ee low explosives: detonating | sxplosives, OF hign exposives; and de- | tonators,_or fulminates.
