M'KENNA STILL ALIVE.
No Hope of His Recovery, However,
Is Entertained Inquest Begun
in the Rafferty Case.
Thomas McKenna, tho Old Forge
police olllcer, who was wounded by
Watchman Thomas Ludden, was alive
at midnight, but rapidly glowing
weaker. His nttendlng physician, Dr.
J. J. Timlin, thought he might linger
for some time, but feared It would not
be many hours before he must suc
cumb. Coroner Roberts went to Old Torge
yesterday and performed an autopsy
on the lemains of Officer Patilck Raf
ferty. He found that two bullets en
tered the body One went between the
third and fouith ribs on the right side
and punctured the lung. The hem
morhage resulting finm this caused
death. The other bullet passed through
the fleshy pait of thov right aim In a
line tow aids the heait, but ufter en
tering the body was deflected by strik
ing a rib and taking a downward
course passed out of the body again.
A jury consisting of John Koch, T.
M Lynch, Richard Joyce, James F,
Conway, Edward P. Mason and Will
iam Kerr was empanelled and viewed
the remains, after w hleh they ad
journed. The date for taking testi
mony has not as yet been fixed.
Ludden Is Improving, both physically
and mentally. It Is not quite certain
that ho Is not seriously Injured and
that his mental derangement Is not
chronic. He learned jesterday of the
death of Rafferty, but made no demon
stiatlon of his feelings In the matter.
A warrant chaiglng him with mur
der was issued yesttiday by Aldetman
Millar. The Information was sworn to
by Deputy Sheilff Henry r. Feiber.
No time has been .set et for his hear

TOKIO ENGINEERS
VISITING SCRANTON
SPENDING A WEEK INSPECTING
MINING MACHINERY.
One of Them Is the Chief Engineer
of the Knseka Mining Company
and Is Looking About with a View
of Placing Orders as Well as Ac
quainting Himself with American
Ideas Tho Dickson Works Aro
Just Now Claiming Their Atten
tionBoth Speak English.
Two eminent joung Japanese, K.
Takoda, of Rlkuchn, and T. Tsuno, of
Toklo, or "Tokyo," ns they spell It, are
at the Jermyn, being en route around
the world on an educational and com
mercial tcur.
Both aro graduates of tho Toklo uni
versity, and that they lccelved a pretty
good attlclei of learning In that Insti
tution can bo guessed when It Is stated
that they Epeak not only correct but
elegant English, tpionounclng like a
native, and even going to the extent
of correctly applying Idioms, practi
cally all of whli h was taught them In
their Japanese school, for they were
nevei beyond the shores of Japan until
ninety davs ago, and a good part of
those ninety daj.s they havo been on
the go. "By no means" is an expres
sion that came unhesitatingly from
Mr. Tsuna, and "Several miscellan
eous npplianccs" was one of tho phras
es tho teporter recalls having heard
Mr. Takeda use
CHIEF ENGINEER.
The latter Is chief engineer of tho
Koseka Copper and Silver Mining com
panvv, of Rlkuchn Mr. Tsuno Is study
ing englneeilng, and Is accompanying
Mr. Takeda to further his education
by observing the methods of other
countiles This is also a part of Mr.
Takeda's purpose, but the primary ob
ject of his mission is to examine min
ing machinery with a view of placing
orders for his employers, Messrs Tu
ita & Co
They have completed a tour of the
west, examining tho mining methods
employed thoie and acquainting them
selves with tho relative value and
prices of the machinery. Then they
came east and ate now visiting the
manufacturing centers. At ptesont
they aro being shown through the
Dickson works and later they will look
Into the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western shops and the coal mines.
They e.rect to stay about a week
and will go from hero to Schenectady
and they could pronounce It exactly
with a view of bujlng some nfachlnery
from tho General Electric company.
TO INCREASE PLANT
Tho Kaseka Mining company is now
using some of the Geneial Electric
company's machinery in its power
tiansmittlng sjstem, which covers a
distance of nlmi miles. The company
now operates a smelting plant com
prised of four furnaces It pioposcs to
increase the size of the plant and also
Its electrical plant.
Mr. Takeda savs they will stop in
England, Trance and Gel many, but In
timated that their stay theic would
not bo very long. Ho hhaies the pref
erence of most of his countrymen for
American mechanical methods and
American maehinerv.
SECRET SOCIETIES IN FRANCE.
Rev. D. J. MacGoldrick's Second
Paper Before the Nowman Club.
At the Newman Magazine club last
night the paper read was by Rev D.
J. MacGoldilck, on the subject, "The
Work of Secret Societies In France
During tho Last Thlity Years." He
explained the choice of title for his
papei by tho fact that in tho paper
on the Drejfus trial some weeks ago
he made more than meiely casual ref
eience to the work of the seciet socle
ties In France, and so he took this
opportunity to show what he meant by
this expression.
Ho said that by the work oP secret
societies in Fiance ho meant the laws
forged by the secret societies In their
lodges and lobbied thiough the houses
of legislature by their emissaiies
These laws were directed against the
exercise of religion In the aimy, in
the public oillces of civil life, in the
schools and vvheiever legislation could
attack the Influence of the Catholic
clergy and the teaching of tho Catho
lic church
In lllustiation of this disposition on.
the pait of tho secret societies he re-'
cited a long list of enactments" from
1ST0 to 1S92 which he averted were di
rect attacks on tho Catholic church
and the religious order.s Ho also made
a number of statements tendln" to
show that the piesent conditions jf
Catholic life In Trance are almost as
Intolerable as during the Iloign of Ter
lor, or as were tho conditions of the
Catholics In Ireland during the seven
teenth and eighteenth century.
Tho icveiend speaker ftequently re
ferred authoritatively to documents,
from which he quoted directly, and on
this point of quoting from -authorities
he said: ' What I state as fact is so
to the last syllable, my deductions aie
my own, but yet so drawn that tho
rontiadictory cannot be true. A pub
lic teacher ought to be constantly un
der the influence of a right conscience,
and a student of history ought to havu
sufficient self-respect to prevent his
asserting as of knowledge more than
he really knew."
He said It was a source of exquisite
pleasure to him to find a friend refer
In the publie press to statements made
in the paper on the Dreyfus trial In
almost these very words, vv ith this dif
ference, he added, that the Idea as
expressed, by his critical friend had
"all the charm of epigram."
A reception followed tho literary ex
ercises. Miss Anna Scanlon enter
tained with a contralto solo and danc
ing was enjoyed to music by Bauer's
orchestra
