Maehinfsts at odds.

SCRANTON, Pa, July 22.-There Is a split in the machinists' union as a re- suit of Saturdays special meeting Fri day night at the regular meeting it was decided to continue the fight. The Del aware, Lackawanna and Western men and the Lackawanna Iron and Steel com pany men wanted to declare the strike off, but the Allis-C Chalmers men outvoted them. Saturdays special meeting was called in the morning for 3 o'clock in the afternoon. It was attended by few of the Allis-C Chalmers men, and as conse- quence those in favor of capitulating were in the majority. The equalization of the Delaware, Lackawanna and West ern company's 600 and Lackawanna Iron and Steel company's 30 men leaves less than 1000 men on strike in Scranton, where there were 2,300 men out the day the strike was declared two months ago.

The scientists connected with the government do not believe in the ex- istence of such thing as q petrified human body, and the Investigations they are constantly called upon to make, of alleged petrified bodies. have all up to this time served to confirm their belief The latest investigation was connected with the discovery, in New Jersey, by young geologist con- nected with the ethnological bureau of what he announced as sure enough petrified man. The young man was orded to forward the find to Washing ton, and ten minutes after the case containing it was opened it was shown to be only a limestone boulder, curi- ously fashioned into features resem- bling those of man, and another dis appointment was recorded. Prof w.. T. McGee said on this subject: No such thing as q human petrifcation has ever been discovered, but that is no reason to say that it cannot exist or has not existed. It may be possl- ble. I doubt it, and everybody else who has inquired into the matter at all doubts it. The human flesh has never been known to become petrified. but, nevertheless, any case reported to us is, of course, inquired into" That human bodies petrify sometimes has long been popular belief, and there are few neighborhoods in which local stories of petrified bodies are not told and believed. But these scientists have never found one.

About 5000 persons were present. Simon Wolf of Washington presided, and Adolph Berko- witz of New York made introductory re- marks. Minister Wu said he was glad to be among friends and that there is a bond of friendship between the Chinese and the Jews because both are persecut- ed He referred to the difference in re- ligion and then spoke of the clergyman in Philadelphia who had said he was a hypocrite.

There will be no dissent from the proposition to have Admiral Dewey represent this country at the corona tion of King Edward, says the Brook lyn Eagle. The right is his by emil hence. by length and importance of ser vice, by official position, bys fame in foreign lands, for it was Dewey who, more than any other man, published to the world the fact that America was a power. It was the guns of his fleet on that fateful morning in Manila bay that awoke not only the rest of the world, but his own country, to q knowledge of the strength, courage and address of our navy, and it is fit ting that our navy itself should be we'll represented in British waters on that occasion. Recall the obstacle gun boats and small cruisers that have too commonly represented the pride and strength of this republic abroad and send over the Oregon, the Brooklyn, the Iowa, the Illinois, the AIassachu- setts. the Kearsarge, the Alabama, and prove to the doubters that there is ah America and that it has a navy. The other nations, we may be sure, will send their biggest and handsomest ships, and this country ought to assert itself in their presence. Let it be Dewey and the fleet once more.
