BY THEIR MARKS
Expert . Says Each Tells Its
Own Story.
New Haven, Conn.—Bullet* which
< mi J or wound numan Doings tell their
own story. Often they give mute evi
dence as a clue to the assassin be
cause the weapon used can be identi
fied from them. No two bullets are
alike after they are fired; each has
its characteristics.
These are assertions of Merton A.
Robinson, firearms expert and ballis
tic engineer of the Winchester "Re
peating Arms company, who exam
ined the bullets that figured in the
slaying of Don R. Mellett, Canton
(Ohio) publisher.
With increase in crime and the tak
ing of human life, police authorities
have turned to their ballistic engineer
for assistance, especially' where the
gun is missing.
A common idea that bullets after
being discharged are shapeless hits of
metal is incorrect, he said. Unless
[ disintegrated, tho missile may tell its
| source and career by the markings
I upon it. In the case of the Canton
bullets brought to Mr. Robinson by
Coroner T. C. McQuate, the opinion
was given that the guns were ordi
-1 nary revolvers and not automatic pis
! tols, and that the revolvers were of
I certain makes.
Each of the three bullets, one taken
from Mellett’s neck, one from wood
work of a garage near which he was
! killed and the third from a brick wall,
J were weighed. They* corresponded
| closely with the standard 158-grain
I weight and appearance of Smith &
1 Wesson .38-caliber bullets. Marks on
I one showed left-handed rifling, a ehar
! acteristic of Colt revolvers. Rifling
j on another revealed five lands —high
i surface in relief —and grooves, a
1 mark inherent to Harrington and
Richardson guns.
Identification of bullets ns well as \
recognition of missiles in other mur
der cases submitted to him from time
to time is a part of the ballistic en
gineer's laboratory work. Mr. Robin
son said bullets carry the peculiar
characteristics of the gun from which
they are fired, and no two guns are
alike. Each has certain individual
characteristics which can be found
out by the expert.
The ballistic engineer first tries to
determine the diameter of the bore of
the gun. the number of grooves in the
rifling, the depths of the groove, the
width of the groove and the direction
of the twist, whether left hand or
right hand.
The buliet is measured for diame
ter and weight by delicate instru
ments. The results are compared
with laboratory records which con
tain samples and data about every
cartridge, shell and bullet turned out
in the world.

THE CHATHAM RECORD
WALL STREET PLAYS
THROUGH NOON HOUR
Traffic Halts While Clerks
Stroll and Gossip.
New York.—Money is king in Wall
street, but the people there are far
from being the pawns in the contin
ual game which popular conjecture
pictures them. They are very human,
apparently more so in their hour of
relaxation than members of other
business groups.
Noon is akin to the proverbial Sat
urday night in a small town, with
only the slight differences caused by
custom and environment.
The streets are only canyons be
tween walls of memory, hut then the
sunlight shines straight down into the
voids and its brightness is reflected
on the crowds. There are no hustling
shoppers here, no persons rushing to
appointments or the hurly-burly of
business hours. Noon is a time to
iviax.
All traffic except that essential to
the district is diverted at that hour
and curbstone boundaries are forgot
ten.
Walk in Middle of Streets.
Then the statue of Washington
looks down on Nassau street, one of
the few wide ones, where girls in
fours, groups of youths, or here and
there a lad and the “girl friend,”
promenade. Lunch is brief and they
saunter about in the middle of the
street until the clock strikes one.
1 It is the same on Wall street itself
—which is hardly more than a narrow
alley—or on New street, which a wide
truck would fill from curb to curb.
There is a sociability about it all,
and an excavation for a new building
is sufficient attraction for as many
persons as crowd around the
guard rail.
j I'atroling the streets during this
| time are the hawkers who reap their
fortunes in nickels and dimes —news-
papers, combs, novelties—anything
that strikes the fancy.
The scene is entirely at variance
with the activity of the &,,cet which
makes a million dollars only small
change.
Money is a commodity here, and. all
realize the futility of excessive dis
play, except for the standard “pros
perous looking” clothes which are af
fected both by bank presidents and
S2O-a-week clerks.
The president and clerk eat side by
side in the same lunchrooms, partic
ularly those where you wait on your
self and then figure your own bill.
This action of the banker, however,
may be construed as carefulness, us
even small sums now are guarded
closely. This practice was evolved
only recently after a series of hold
ups.
Take Precaution.
The same boyish looking messen
gers still carry the little black bags,
but tiie bags are fastened to- wrists
by. handcuffs and chains, making it
virtually impossible for them to be
snatched away. The kidnaping of
the messenger is precluded by the
presence of two or three armed guards
walking behind him with -weapons in
hand in coat pockets, w hile the guards |
try to look as little like detectives as
possible.
This quiet protection marks the
street, for about the only visible po
licemen are traffic officers. For the
rest, there is an abundance of plain
* clothes men and private guards in
every establishment.
