Ammunition on Lusitania on Its Ill-Fated Voyage Liner Sunk by German Sub marine in 1915 Had 5,400 Cat-es of Shells Aboard, Report Shows. New Vonk. Dec. 4.—(By A. !*.)—The i unard liner Lusitania sunk hy a German submarine in 1915 off the Irish coast, carried neither guns, troops nor explosives, but did carry 5.490 rases of ammunition, the official report of the vessel's cargo made pub lic J>y Dudley Field Malone, collector ■ if the port at the time, shows, accord ing to a copyrighted story in the New Voik World. The cases of ammunition, the report -ta’.ed, were carried by specific per mission under rulings of the Depait rnent of Commerce in force since 1911. The Malone report, the newspapers say, was made to Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo. It was dated June I. 1915, and was called for after the German reply of May 28 to President Wilson's first Lusitania note of May 13. had set up tho contention the Lusitania had lieen armed and that its rapid sinking was due, not to the torpedo, but to the explosion of am munition. It was this report to whicli President Wilson, in his second note of June 9 referred, when he said; "Fortunately, there are matters con cerning which the government of the United States Is in a position to give the Imperial German government ofil clal information.’’ Gives Out Full Keporl. Mr. Malone said he had determined to give out the text of the .report be cause of still insistent appeals to him for information regarding, its contents. These appeals,” lie explained, "come not only from the United States lull from abroad: for instance from uch organisations as the Central Committee for Kstabllshing the Causes of the War. "When Senator La Follette's ->tti tude toward the war was under inves tigation tiie Treasury department was culled on for the original of this re port. 1 replied thut it had been turned over to the State department. The Slate department held that the re port had become a state paper and therefore secret, • "So It has never lieen possible for the public to know just what the re port contained. For this reason and because of the constant appeals to mo for information regarding it, I have decided to make it public.” No duns on Ship. The report states that when the Lusitania sailed front New York on May X, 1915, on its last trip to Kng land, it did not have anv guns of any caliber or description on any deck, mounted jr unmounted, masked or unmasked. Affidavits by various gov ernment inspectors were affixed to the report in substantiation. It stated turther that the Lusitania did not have Canadian troops or troops of any nationality on board. More over, the Lusitania carried no group oi groups, no body or organization of passengers as such, with or without uniforms; and if any individual re servists of any nationality sailed on the Lusitania on this trip they did so as individuals, paying their own pas j sage and receiving their own Indivl ' dual tickets. Referring to the presence of explo | sives on the liner, the report said that the ammunition set forth ub j part of the cargo did not contain ex- j Plosives within the interpretation of Hie statues and regulations as inter preted by the Department of Com merce in the ruling previously quoted. More than 1,000 lives were lost, in eluding over 100 Americans, when the Lusitania went down off Kinsale Head, Ireland, six days after it had left New York. $8,000 Villiage Church Destroyed by Flames Lincoln, Dec. 4. — The Catholic church at the village of Agnew, near Lincoln, was burned yesterday.

Special radio time-signals sent from NSS. Annapolis, for' the benefit of scientists in the Indian ocean work ing on a test of the Einstein theory of relativity during the recent solar eclipse, were neauy twice as-audible as those of a com mercial station, the United States navy has been advised. At least their time signals reached' Paris satisfactorily. A radio station there reports that a comparison of the time signals sent out by the navy with those trans mitted from Rocky Point, L. I., showed that the audibility of the navy signals was 158.3 compared with 87.5 for Rocky Point on the audibility settle. Reports from Australia and the In dian ocean have not yet been re ceived. Naval signals were seni out on 17.145 meters and those of the com mercial station on lit,000. Information About Detectors. If you have a crystal detector you should always break new crystals to get a new surface; avoid touching crystals with your bare lingers and not allow dust to accunitnulate on the mineral. Make sure that the end of the cat whisker is not corroded. Do not stllow any heavy currents to pass through the crystal. Remember that, although a crystal may seem worthless, it may he pulverized and used with good results. Never mount a vacuum tube side ways, as this allows the filament to sag. Mount it in an upright posi tion. Never turn the current on to its maximum brightness quickly. Take a little time. Do not use more than 25 volts on the plate or more than six volts on the filament. For amplifying bulbs the plate voltage may be much higher. Provide a rheostat which will carry at least one ampere without heating. Be sure that the terminals all make good con tact with the corresponding socket contacts—Vernon Habelin, Genesco, 111. Pieces of historic radio apparatus used by the Marconi Wireless Tele graph company during the last 25 years were among the exhibits at the first all-British radio show and con vention at the Horticultural Hall, Westminster. Among these exhibits were a New ton coil, used in 1898 at the Needles station at Alum Bay, Isle of Wight; a coherer, made in 1899. of the type which was used as a radio detector from 1899 to 1908; an early type of magnetic detector and a Fleming thermionic valve, first used in 1904. One of the best and at the same time easiest ways of soldering wire to springs of the ordinary telephone lack is as follows; Put the packs in : place ih fhe panel and bend the wire i into the position it is to take after I soldering. Then remove the leaves and solder. Be careful not to get too much I acid flux on the metal for this causes 1 corrosion. When the springs are cool 1 put them back in place and connect the free ends of the wires.
