It has been suggested that chemical action may play an important part in the erosion of guns; oxidation, burisation, and nitrogenisation have each been suggested as factors in ero- sion. Microscopical evidence is streng- ly against these theories, and there are really the grounds for supposing that chemical action can exert much in- fluence on the progress of erosion by modern propellants.
The Chinese Republic The Court heard Mr. Rodger as regards the facts of the case, after which Mr. Davies stated that, not- withstanding the fact that the com panies waived all technicalities, and were at any time willing to pay the loss, they could not find any party with whom to negotiate pr who could file a detailed claim until March 28, 1927, more than a year
after the 1099.
Policy conditions require the insur- ed to file claim within 15 days after loss, or to request an extension. The insured in this case did neither, but, nevertheless, the companies, at least the Great American Insurance Com- pany, wished to pay the loss to any party who could prove an insurable interest in the property destroyed, and was not taking advantage of un- settled political conditions' which may have precluded the right Owners from making their claim on time.
