The Central Federated Union passed q
resolution yesterday calling on the follow

union members OF last years chorus.
This action followed the reading OF a
report OF q meeting OF the executive COM
mittee held last Friday evening. President
Smith Of the American Federation OF Mu-
~sicians, representing Local $40, attended
the meeting and, according to the report.
said that his organization was not in a
place to call a sympathetic strike. 1t had
troubles OF it's own. The report said that
Miss Roslyn Of the Chorus Singers Union
made the principal plea on behalf OF
The sin gers. She is quoted as having said;
The present position Of affairs is in

IL the case was reversed and the musicians
were making the same plea to the chorus
singers we would all 60 out and stay out
until the musicians were employed, II we
had to live on bread crusts."
This appears to have had no effect on
the musicians. After the reading Of the
report the resolution was passed with an

Special Cable Despatch to THE SUN.
PARIs, Oct. 2s.-The French submarine
boat Lutin, which sank near Bizerta on
October 10 and which was subsequently
raised, has been towed to the Ferryville
dock, Tunis.
Sixteen bodies have been taken out Of
the vessel. Some OF hem were much de-
composed. One or two had been attacked
by acids from the batteries, whether before
or after the accident cannot be said. In
the fore compartment was found the body Of
the commander, Lieut.. Phoepon. His scalp
had been torn OF. A petty officer had his
arms around the commanders waist, hold
ing him in a death grip. A m~idshipman
similarly clasped another officer, while a
sailor chung to the midshipman's feet.
In the rear compartment six men were
found linked 80 tightly together that 1t was
very difficult to separate them. Other
bodies were found In the extreme forward
compartment.
There were six leaks in the hull each
Of them large enough to admit a jet OF
water two inches in diameter. This fact
suggests thar an abrupt attempt to raise
the vessel by the crew caused the stern TO
kick the sea bed and started the plates.

SMALLER THAN A FLY.
Engine Made Of Gold and Steel, but
Weighs No More Than a Match.

Tiny Tim is the name of the
smallest engine in the world. It
is made of gold and steel and is so
small that a common house fly
seems larger in companion.
1t fits easily into the smallest p
short cartridge, writes T. H. Rob
inson in the Technical World,
balance wheel and all. 1t weighs
just 4 grains complete, which is
about the weight of a common
match. 1t takes 12O such engines
to weigh l ounce, almost 1000 to
weigh a pound and n ere than s.,
900, 900 to weigh ton.
The engine bed and stand are of
gold. The shaft runs in hardened
and ground steel bearings inserted
in the gold bed.
These bearings are counter bored
from the inside to form a self
oiling bearing. The fly wheel has
steel center and arms, with a
gold rim, and this part (the COM
plete wheel) weighs l grain.
The cylinder is of steel with
octagonal base highly polished.
The stroke is 1872 of an inch; bore,
800 of an inch. Seventeen pieces
are used in the construction of this
engine.
Thefeed is through the gold base,
which is hollow. The speed of
this engine is s 1000 revolutions per
minute. When running 100 per
second no motion is visible to the
eye, but it makes note like the
noise of a mosquito, caused by the
piston rod.
The horsepower is 1-498, 900 of
one horse power. Compressed air
is used to run it; and it may be of
to note that the amount re-
quired to make it hum can easily
be borne on the eyeball without
winking.

believed the substance to be petri-
fed sea foam, hence the German
name meerschaum, meaning sea
foam; and a very apt name it is,
for the mineral IS very white and
so light that it will float when dry,
Pieces of meerschaum have been
found floating in the Black Sea
which were evidently washed out
Of their matrix by the waves.
This may also have had its in
1uence on the sea foam theory of
its formation.
Meerschaum is found in best
quality and most abundant quanti-
ty in Asia Minor, though it also
occurs in Greece, Spain, Moravia
and Morocco, and even in this
country in South Carolina. The
richest mines are on the plains of
Eskishehr, $50 miles southeast Of
Constantinople. One of these
mines is said to be 1000 years old,
and consists of about 1000 pits
within an area of six miles, ali but
about $50 of which have been ex-
hausted. The mineral occurs in
nodules or Jumps of various and
irregular sizes, buried in the
alluvial deposit of the plain. An
other mine comprises 5000 pits,
only 100 of which are being work
ed.
The material is mined by the
inhabitants of the surrounding
villages and transported in the
rough to Eskishehr. The meer-
schaum is soft when mined, but
soon hardens y hen exposed to the
air. For this reason the Jumps
are roughly scraped off at first and
then laid aside to dry. When dry
they are subjected to a thorough
5craping and cleaning, and are
finally waxed and polished. The
Jumps are now sorted according to
size in four classes and packed in
boxes. In this condition the meer-
is shipped to the pipe
manufacturers. Scientific Ameri-
