CAsKET HOLDS INTEREST.
Expect Guardian Vessels to Dis
close Viscera of King.

London Times world copyright. By arrange
ment with the Earl of Carnarvon.)
BY Cable to The Star.
LUXOR, Egypt. February 23-Ihe
INSCRIPTIONS methods of those who
from interested motives are seeking
to discredit Lord Carnarvon's agree
ment with the London Times are eX-
cellenty illustrated by attempts
which are now being made to inf1ame
feeling against him because of his
supposed intention of carrying King
Tutank hamen'S body to England or
elsewhere 1t would be ridiculous If
it were not being used to arouse anti
British sentiment among the Moham-
medans, it being especially employed
to work on the passions of the Turks
in the matter of the Gallipoli graves.
1t is absurd to think that no one
seems to have thought il worth while
to ask Lord Carnarvon what his own
real views or intentions are. Lord
Carnarvon's views are quite definite
He hopes Tutankhamen's body will
be treated with the utmost reverence
and will be left lying in the sar-
cophagus unmoved from the spot
where he has lain for 5000 years.
The whole thing is the merest mares
nest.

IS nearly reduced

and the whole staff IS nearly reduced
to despair.
Sir John Maxwell, who is the chair
man of the Egypt exploration fund,
has just issued and published here an
appeal for funds to enable that or
ganization to resume excavation work
at Tell-el Amarna. which II had to
discontinue two years ago owing to
lack of money. This appeal comes as
d complement to the remarks / made
in my recent dispatch when. after re-
porting certain donations which for
eign visitors had made to the New
York Metropolitan Museum of Art
after visiting the wonderful discoy-
cry made here by Lord Carnarvon and
Howard Carter. I asked whether the
Egypt exploration fund, which has
done such good work in the past was
not also deserving of similar support.
Other Discoveries Likely.
Sir John MaXwells appeal comes, in
deed, at a very appropriate moment.
Tell-el-Amarna, 2s is well known, was
founded during the eighteenth dy-
nasty by Khu-n-aten. who. finding
more satisfaction in the worship Of
Aten-that is to say. the suns disc
than in that Of Amen, decided to re-
move himself from Thebes. which was
closely associated with the latter re-
ligion, and to set up a center for the
new cult which would be entirely free
from the influences of the Amen
priesthood. He selected for this pur-
pose a site 300 miles north of Thebes,
which he called -Akhetaten (Horizon
of Aten), or. as it was later known,
Tell-el-Amarna. Here he and his sue
cessor, Saa-nekht. held sway, and the
worship of Aten f1ourished. Tutankh-
amen. who succeeded Saa-nekht, lived
At Tell-el-Amarna for a centain num-
Der of years, eventually transferring
to Thebes when he reverted to the
worship of Amen
Little more is known about Tut
ankhamen's life during the time he
lived at Tell-el-Amarna than about
the years he spent at Thebes up to
the time of his death.
While Lord Carnarvon's discovery
in the valley of the kings will. it is
hoped, throw q quantity of new light
on the matter, the work on which the
Egypt exploration fund has been en-
gagged at Tell-el-Amarna, the heart Of
the Aten worship, should serve as a
complement of the informatio which
1t is expected to extract from Tut
ankhamen's tomb.

DUBLIN, February 24.--More than a

various parts of the City and the su-
burbs. The principal person taken
into custody was Sean Fitzpatrick.

Due apparently to the steady in

has suddenly become a major consid-
Grafton in democratic plans for 1924.
Washington during the week just
closed was the Mecca for democratic
leaders from many sections Of the
country, including influential national
committeeman. William Jennings
Bryan was among the throng and
John W. Davis. a favorite dark horse
for the presidential nomination. made
two visits. Among the numerous
party matters discussed was the de-
mand of northern and western demo-
Gratis that their confeercs in the south
must como out fiat-footedly, unquali-
fiedly and concretely against the ku
KluX Klan. If they do not, southern
democrats are warned. tley must
abandon all hope of influencing either
tho presidential candidacy or the

theatrical criticism, dogs, politics and
the league of nations in a chat with
reporters before the steamship Adri-
attic sailed early today for a cruise

for her political views. "All know

and he may be a presidential candt-

The Alabama senator at that mo-

He had boarded the ship early last
night and left his wife to guard the
door against the press.
1--WE are taking the cruise so that
the senator may have complete
rest" she whispered to newspaper
men through a small opening. There
will be no extra session Of the Sen
ate and the senator is tired out and

FEARS GRAVE ROBBERS.
Prof. Petrie Doubts if Mummy
Would Be Safe if Left in Tomb.

Special Gable to The Star and New York Times.
LONDON, February 24.-Prof. Film
ders Petrie when asked last night for
his opinion upon the question of how
best to deal with Tutankhamen's
mummy said:
by all means let the remains of
Tutankhamen remain in their present
burial place if they can be preserved,
but in my candid opinion they cannot.
The problem of what to do with
Tutankhamen is 81 very serious one;
much more so than the average lay
man imagines.
81 appreciate the feelings of those
who are anxious that the graves Of
the dead should be treated with every
reverence, and no one is more anxious
than the archeologist that the re-
mains should be preserved, but un-
less an armed guard is placed on
watch day and night outside the
tomb of Tutankhamen I believe an
attempt would be made by robbers
to despoil the tomb.
Knows Of Robberfes.
Even electric wires and the seal
ing of the door with heavy rocks
would be of no avail alone. I have
known undertakers employed by an
archaeological party to remove the
remains from tombs to run a shaft
clean down to the grave from the out
side and despoi1 the tombs in this
way. Other psychologists have had
the same experience.
One might think that if it were
publicly announced that nothing but
the bare bones remained in the tomb
there would be no attempt at robbery
of any sort. Yet take the case of Amen
hotep II. His remains, which were with
out intrinsic value, were taken up and
sent to Cairo. On the representation of
the English authorities they were re-
turned to their resting place in the tomb
and locked UP, and a great iron gate
was placed over it. What happened ?
One night an Egyptian ghoul smashed
the tomb open and tore the whole of
the mummy to pieces.
gold or treasure will tempt ghouI in
any country.
Many Museums Robbed.
Few people realize that there are
six European museums which have had
all their gold articles stolen in the last
generation. The museums of Marseille
and Agram were victims of these out
RACES, and in 1880 an attempt was even
made on the Louvre.
Let me give you a personal expert
ence of the difficulties and responsible
ties of removing, valuable objects from
tombs Just before the war I was ex-
|, cavating in Egypt and we discovered
ancient treasure. The man who first
found the treasure was not allowed by
me to come out of the depths of the
tomb until Il had all been removed. ]

closed 10 every one. He did keep It
secret, but I never let him out of the
tomb. The result was that every one
thought something had been found, but
no one Of the party except that man
and myself knew the facts I told the
proper authorities of the find and the
treasure was safely removed to Cairo.
THE share which i was to remove
out of the country was known only to
myself. To this day not a living soul,
except my wife, knows how 1t was
safely guarded out Of Egypt and
brought to England

Interest in Casket.

Above all things among the latest
discoveries the greatest interest per-
haps centers in the so-called canopic
shrine. or casket,. with its four guar
dian figures SO beautifully modelled.
1t is not, of course, certain that 1T
really does contain the four canopic
jars holding the viscera (brains, heart,
etc) of the dead king. This, however,
is the expectation of the experts.
The use of these four jars, If not
characteristic of the earlier dynasties,
seems first to have become q general
practice in the eighteenth dynasty
and almost certainly was observed
in the case of Tutankhamen. If
of alabaster, though other materials
were used, with lids or shoppers to
represent the heads of the four guar
dian genii of the dead, generally
to say, four shoppers in the form of
the heads of a dog, man, q 1ackal
and q hawk, respectively, which some
think had a relation, respectively, to
the four points of the compass, north,
south, east and west.
We are still, however, cropping in
the dark so much in matters of old
Egyptian religious symbolism that al
most everything is conjectural. What
seems more definitely connected with
the points of the compass and subject
to orientation are certain Inscriptions
on the walls now visible and en-
bIems which it is expected to find.
This is a matter, however, on which,
with true scientific caution, the ex-
merits refuse to say a word at the
present stage Of the investigation. 1t
will all be communicated in due
course.
Fail to Opea Box.
Even more remarkable to the ordi-
nary human being is the self-control
of the experts in the presence OF the
extremely fascinating problem of the
box which has inscriptions on the lid
saying it contains lock of the king
hair when a boy. Most everyday NOR
tails, on reading this inscription,
would have rushed to peep at it, but.
though it is some months since the
| box was discovered and the inscrlp-
ton read, the lid has not even been
opened.
Besides the hair, according to the
| list, all sorts of interesting toilet ar
ticles are there, and the way these
men of science stifie their natural
curiosity is almost superhuman. As
a matter of fact, however, hardly
any work has been possible for any
member of the staff for week now,
as the continuous stream of visitors
armed with credentials makes any
continuous application impossible,
