FRENCH NAVAL POWDER.
REPORT ON THE INQUIRY. By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright. PARIS, Nov. 15. An inquiry into the'Maissin charges failed to. prove the more serious allegations against Louppe, while Maiseitt was not free from blame. The report recommends a re-test of the whole output of the Pont de Buis works and the establishment of a naval powder factory. M. Dolcasse, in the Chamber of Deputies, announced that the Liberto disaster was traceable to 1906 power, which had passed the required tests. Confidence was voted in the Government for its determination to prevent a recurrence of the disasters.
MORE BAD AMMUNITION. (Received Nov. 16, 10.20 a.m.) PARIS, Nov. 15. The battleship Diderot landed her ammunition, all of which proved to be damaged.
