PETER CLAUSEN BURIED.

Peter Causen. the lineman who was killed by cleo
trcty on Monday at One-hundred and-ffty sixth St
and Third ave, buried yesterday in ST. Mchaels
Cemetery at Astoria. The services were held at the
APARTMENT OF Mrs Clausens sister at No. 1761 First
ave. by the Rev. Julius Grimme of the First German
Baptist Church. of Brooklyn, f. D., who married the
young couple less than year ago. Mrs. Clausen was
somewhat stronger yesterday and was able 10 follow
the body of her husband 10 the grave Her pecuniary
situation also is found TO be better than was at first
supposed as her husband had been member OF the
Order of Chosen Friends. The officers Of the order
gave her 900 Of the insurance money yesterday, and
she will get $500 more in three months.
The Grand Jury began yesterday the examination
of witnesses In the electric light inquiry. 1T was
decided not 10 limit the investigation to the manner
I'm which Clausen met his death. The subway Com
nissioners will be examined to-day and other officials
who are familiar with the manner in which the wires
are used will be called at future sessions. The wit
nesses yesterdays session were those who had seen
the killing OF Clausen.
The result Of the investigation may be the indictment
of some Of the electric light companies, for ma ntan
ing a nuisance, and the cutting OF of the more
dangerous wires.

THE BRUSH COMPANY BLAMED.

The inquest in the case et Henry Harris who was
killed by an electric shock On November 30, was
finished Yesterday before Coroner Messemer and jury
Charles W. Pearce superintendent Of lamps of the
Brush Electric Illuminating Company, admitted that III
had not inspected the lamp by which Harris was
killed since February, 1855 After being out for forty
minutes the jury returned the following verdict:
We the Jury find that Henry Harris came TO his
death by shock from electric current while carrying
showcase into the premises Of No. 675 Elghthave in
This city said showcase coming in contact with an
electric light belonging 10 the Brush Electric Light
Company. We censure the Brush Company for care
Jessness in not having had the light above referred 10
placed high enough and in accordance with the exist
ing regulations of the Board of Electrical Control and
for not having the said light properly insulated and
examined prescribed in the regulations OF the said
Board of Electrical Control and We find that the
Brush Electric Light Company IS solely responsible
for the death of Henry Harris. which took place on
November 80 1850. We also offer the following
recommendations .,, o., -, Al. .
Firs-Thst the Board OF Electrical Control and the
Boad Of Health OF the city of New York be requested
70 use extraordinary and speedy means TO have the
wires OF all the electric light companies OF this city
laid underground.
Second-To use all necessary care TO have the wires
and lamps of all the electric companies properly IN

Helena Mont Dec. IL (SpecaD.-An attempt was

quorum, by directing the temporary sergeant
alarms to arrest the eight Democratic members who

this is derived from Section 333 Of the Statutes Of
Montana which empowers less than quorum to COM
pei the attendance Of absentees, it being held on the
strength Of numerous pecedents that membership dates
back to the issuance of certificates and not from tho
time Of taking the oath Of Office. Only five OF the
Democrats could be found. All refused TO accompany
the officer to the Chamber but agreed TO meet
with that body tomorrow. No one believes tonight
