Mr.. Harris-Yes.
MIR. Chandler-The Senator from Massachu-
sets Mr.. Dawes) says it also depends some
what on the person.
MIR. Harris-I think the Senator from Massa-
chusetts is somewhat. if not entirely. mistaken
in that declaration. Different nervous organ
ism will be affected differently by electricity:
do not know to what extent. But the infor-
nation the committee derived from that inves-
tigation amounts to something like this No
accident or injury to human life has been
known to occur where a volume of, say, 500
volts has been employed. In the moving of
the cars. to which reference has been made
about 400 volts is the maximum of power used
The batteries employed here on this railroad
cannot generate exceeding 500 volts. But the
arc light requires from 800 to z. 600 volts and
that is far beyond the danger line. Whenever
a man comes in contact with that power there
is very great danger, if not absolute certainty
of destruction Of animal life. That is the
state of the information that we derived from
the investigation.
Mr.. Chandler-So understand the Senator
from Ohio also to vouch for the safety of the
New York avenue railroad, asserting distinctly
to the Senate that the electric currents which
are used for moving the cars on the electric
railways are not dangerous, and that the only
danger from these wires is from the electric
light wires. 1 understand that to be the in
formation communicated to the Senate I
have not so understood the facts shall be
glad if they turn out to be true, but am nv
self under suspicion that there IL a con-
spiracy among the promoters of these electric
railways lwho are not willing to put their
wires underground, and who are determined
to occupy and disfgure the streets and avenues
of the cities of this country with their wires) to
misrepresent the amount of power used in the
electric railway, and am sorry to say be-
ieve it is true. l do believe it, and be-
lieve that we shall learn this eventually to our
cost.
Mr.. Butler said he was not in a condition to
hear lectures on the subject of electricity, and
moved to adjourn.
Mr.. Sherman, and Mr.. Butler yielded.

Book has Just been issued, obviously in
view OF the approach Of the samoan conie-

new German Consul to Samos, dated April
10th, Prince Bismarck censurcs Consul
hrappe's conduct throughout The troubles
In Samoa. He dwells upon the deplOrable fact
that with Gu inadequate force, and without
authority, urgency, or likelihood Of success
Consul Krappe took measures on December
18th which resulted in the death Of large num-
Ders Of persons and sn undesirable change
In the position Of planters. Besides ieopsr-
dlzng peace with America. while quiesccnCe
would have preserved q iolerAhe state OF
affairs, the sanction OF other treaty powers
being lacking, he says Consul Krappe's
demand for the control Of the foreign rela-
tons Of samoa was OF 10 force and CON-
PEELED him (Bismarckj TO notify Great
Britain and America OF it, Withdrawal. The
Chancellor concludes by declaring that Ger
many has nothing 70 do with the internal
affairs Of samoa; that her mission is re-
stricted 10 protecting Germans and enabling
them to develop commercial Interests.
