FINDING OF HARP00N

years mystery of the sea may be solved
through a mishap to the German steam
ship Pallanza, which struck n whale at
sea. nearly cutting the mammal in two
and disclosing n harpoon believed to have
been used by the little whaler James L,
Duncan, which was lost In 1903. The
Duncan sailed from Halifax with "A crew
OF seven men in the spring Of that year

NEGROES ARE ANXIOUS
TO SUPPORT TEDDY

NEW YORK. Aug. 19,-Tbe support
of the negro electorate of the United
States for Il possible third term was
pledged in behalf of Colonel Roosevelt
today by the 100 delegates Of the Ma
tional Negro Business Mems league
here in convention.
The Endorsement Of the former presi-
dent was voted after he had addressed
the delegates on the opportunities for
advancement open to the colored race
in this country.
Colonel Roosevelt said:
"Thc white man of tho south is the
vital man to have sympathy with the
negro. When your neighbor respects
you, you have won your battle. The
white man Of the north does his worst
work in interfering between the two
peoples of the south and his best work
when he improves their relations.
81 would not slur over the injustice
with which good colored men arc treat
ed, but l feel that the really substan-
tinl way of conquering injustice is to
train your people so that the white man
will willingly recognize in his colored
neighbor a desirable neighbor, Every

live in it, but is reflection on the

CATION for the sand and rock fleet of
the Atlantic division last week, accord
ing TO the issue of the Canal Record,
which reached this city today. This

The division just opened is not com

Of 100 feet at its narrowest point. The
dredges are constantly working On this
part. broadening and deepening it to
the full width Of 500 feet and the full
depth of forty-five feet.

"GUESS-Y0UR-W WEIGHT"
SCALES ARE "FIXED"

NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-The New
York commissioner of weights an meas
ures has turned his attention to the
industrious persons who "guess your
weight at Coney island and the other
sport resorts about the city.
The commi ssioner made personal in
spection Of a number Of the scales at
Coney Island last night and found them
faulty.
"The scales are practically all
flxed'," he said. afterward. "I weigh
176 pounds, but when ] was weighed on
the Coney Island scales my weight
ranged anywhere from 80 to 100
pounds; in fact. lust the weight the
operator had guessed.
The commissioner said that the ma
chimes would have to go. Their inaccu
racy is not the main reason, however.
There have been many complaints from
people who have had their pockets
picked while being weighed, and the
commissioner declares that the operator
always runs his hands over a person,
ostensibly to estimate their weight, but
really to locate their pockeibook or their
bankroll, then either "lifts' it himself
or signals to confederate TO do so.
