Arrival Of the Bodies Of the Siamess
PHILADELPHIA, February l1.-Yesterday
the case containing the bodies Of the Siamese
twins was opened in the presence OF a num-
Der of medical gentlemen. The embalming
process has not been entirely satisfactory in
its results, owing to the fact that when the
bodies were subjected to that process de-
composition was already far advanced. AT
the same time it is believed the main points
of interest in the case will be fully calculated
by an autopsy. A number Of medical gentle
men were present at the college last night
and steps were taken to commence opera
tons. Plaster casts of the bodies were taken
yesterday.
