lion, no this State goes Into effect, but until
io.day tho amount and character OF cur
.rut required TO make death certain aud in
>t,u'ane0us had not been Determined. The
.yperiments upon dogs last summer by
Harold 7. Brown, The electrical engineer,
acre criticised because the weight OF the
animals tillcd WAS lees than that OF man,
and % vas supposed that more current would

account.
This sremoon Mr.. Brown was given an
lpuortupity 10 make demonstration before
Nr. Iibridge 7. Gerry, author Of the cleo
uical execution law, and tho committee ap'
roinled by the Medico-Legal Society TO ro-
p.t on me best means Of putting the law
INTO effect.
The experiments were made At Mr.. Edi-
sons laboratory al Orange. and the urst Vics
um was csf weighing 1913 pounds. The
b2r vas cut on the forehead and on the
spine behind The iorelegs, and tponge-cOv-
cred plates, moistoned IN tuphatc Of link,
were fastened iu place. The resistance OF
ne animal aas 1900 ohms.
An alternating Of 200 volts was applied Tor
thirty seconds, and the animal was Killed in
slanilv. IL IVES al once dissected by Drs. lu-
gram and Blc,er. but the brain, heart, aud
upgs were found TO be ia normal condition,
ard the meat VAS pronounced 1t for food.
one metal plate carrying the current touched
the hajr OF The forehead and slightly burned
u. but otherwise there were no external in-
dica.iens Of injury.
The second calf weighed i4j pounds, and
hal resistance Of 1900 ohms. The deadly
Alternating current at 100-yolts pressure was
applied for Eve seconds, and produced IN
slant death.
To settle permanently the weight question
horse welKhing 1850 pounds was next
tiUed hv paasing tae alternating current al
zoo volts frenl one foreleg % the other. The
rcsistancc Of tots animal wSs 600 ohms.
Nr. Brown was assisted by MIR. A. l.. Ken

Professor Charles A. Dorcmus, DR.. Frede
rick Peterson. Or Frank II. lngham, Mr.
Elhridge T. Gerry, Mr. CALVIN, DR.. J. NJ.

The experiments proved the alternating
current 10 be the most deadly force known
