Innovations in Bullets and Iron Ship Britain
Mr H W Adams of New York improves hollow bullets to fill grooves and expand in the barrel. An almanac by N Stephane Pvrot notes 1600 European cities on the electrical network. M Francois Monprant of Paris invents a lubricating method using disacidified fatty oils blended with resins. A C Moestue improves car seats with adjustable backrests and folding leaves. Millwall cast the last of four giant cylinders for the iron steamer Great Britain, 675 feet long and 88 wide, using about ten thousand tons of iron. Gunpowder era artillery origins traced to a German inventor and Moorish siege in 1341. Prof Callan proposes a neutral salt to prevent foaming when mixed with carbonate of soda.
