THEIR COFFIN AN iNGOT.
Men Encased by Metal That k'IIed
Them Buried In It.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 20.-A tuner
al without a parallel in this city TOOK
place yesterday at the MdvaIe steel
works, where a 1ort!iton ingot OF
steel, permeated with the flesh, Dlood
and bones Of two workmen, was bur-
led with the rites of the Roman Cath
olic Church. The workmen who were
so strangely laid away were John For
kina nd Jos. Gazda, two forelgn-speak-
ing labOrers who met a horrible death
a week ago. They were in a pit near
cupola containing many tons OF mott
en- steel. A plug gave way and 6O,'
600 pounds of the fiery fluid poured
from the cupola and overwhelmed
them. The men were completely In
cinerated, and not trace of them
selves or their clothing was left.
The Midvae Steel Company was
averse to selling the steel or using 1t
for the purpose for which it was in
tended. and it was decided to bury 1t
with the rites Of the church to which
the unfortunate men had belonged.
Accordingly the forty-ton ingot, oval
in shape, IS feet long, feet wide and
5 feet thick, was moved last week by
travelling cranje to the rear of the
machine shop, where grave ten feet
deep had been made.
A great crowd sought admission to
the works yesterday, but only the two
sisters of Gazda, who were dependent
upon him Workmen, who were on Sun
day du,y, were permitted TO attend
the services, along with the officials
of the company. Among the officials
was President Charles Harrah. All
heads were barred and flags were low
cred to half mast. The great ingot
was covered with earth and the funer-
al party dispersed. The grave OF the
men will be appropriately marked by
! the company.

WANTS BIG GUNS
GEN. CROZlER'S REPORT SAYS
THEY ARE NECESSARY.
THE RAPID WEAR OF THEM
SUGGESTION That They Be Not Used 10
Their Full Capacity and Com
ments Thereon.

Washington, Nov. 2O.-The report Oh
Gen. William Crozier, Chief OF Ordl-
nance is so replete with technical in
formation concerning the arms ana
armament of the United States Army
that Lieut.. Gen. Chaffee, CHIEF or
Staff, has recommended that a copy
of it be sent to every officer in the
army.
Gen. Crozier presents some interest
ing information showing the growth or
gun construction, how it has advanced
from old style guns to meet the i'm
proved condition in the manufacture
of guns, the growing increase in the
thickness of armor and the improved
powder which is used for firing these
guns. A problem now confronts the
ordinance officers on account OF the
wearing of the bore of the gun through
the great velocity of the projectlIes
with the result that After some fifty
of sixty rounds from large guns the
rifling is so worn away that the pro-
jectiles are no longer given the mo-
ton of rotation necessary to steadiness
of hight and an admissible loss Of &C
curacy results"
The question whether the guns
should not be used at a power less
than that which their strength en-
ables the realization of, in order to
diminish the erosion and increase the
life is being considered. The re-
port says:
1T must be remembered that in
thus using the guns at less power,
the energy of the projectile is reduced
by a sacrifice of the quality which it
loses soonest in flight in any event,
| namely, the velocity; and it must also
be remembered that it is quite possible
to retain the superiority of the gun
over anything which it is called upon
to attack by using larger calibres for
given work and by building guns Of
larger size than is now customary, eX-
! detrimental construction as well as
theory and natural foresight having
shown that the present conventional
maximum need by no means be &C.
cepted as limit"
Gen. Crozier says that, at the sug-
gestion of the President, further con-
sideration by the general staff result
ed in the substitution of a knife for
a rod bayonet for the army rifle. He
adds:
"ln view OIL the instructions of the
President Of the United States that
