Electrocution.

So high an authority on electrical mat
ters as Professor TYSpaLL makes the state
ment that of all manner of deaths that by
stroke of lightning must be the most
painless.
II may be true that many persons have
been "struck by lightning" and have re-
covered under proper treatment, but in ali
such cases it is fair TO presume that they
failed 10 receive the full charge or volt
age" as ii would now be called.
Arguing from this statement, it would
seem that the nearer the current from
dynamo is made to resemble that OF a
stroke of lightning the more humane will
be death from electrocution."
In the KKNMIER case i: is 20 be deplored
that long-existing and bitter rivalry be-
tween electric companies should have
caused the sickening scenes to be enacted
ut Auburn the other day by the use OF
dynamo of insufficient capacity. Had
5000 volts been sent through the body of
the poor wretch by causing him simply to
grasp the arms of the chair. properly ar
ranged to form portion of the circuit, or
by clutching the wires from the dynamo,
his death would have been instantaneous,
and the shaving of the head and the appli-
cation of the current TO the spine would
have been unnecessary.
As an outcropping of the rivalry above re-
ferred TO, Richmond people remember very
well the gathering of electricians here last
spring before a committee of the Senate,
which met one afternoon in the hall OF the
House Of Delegates.
A bill was before the Senate. the purport
Of which was to prevent the use in this
State of any electric current of higher
potential than 500 volts. The bill, it was
charged. was inspired by the EDISON peo-
pie, and its supposed object was primarily
to drive the Westinghouse Company and
all other opposition out of the market. 1t
will be remembered. too, the active part
Mr. HAROLD 7. Brown took IN showing the
dangers of the WESTINGHOUSE alternating
current, and his statement of the numbers
of animals that had been killed by it under
his direct manipulation at EDIsoS's labora-
tory.
He claimed also that this current would
be fatal to human life. and when the New
York Legislature made electrocution the
legal mode for the execution of murderers
it is we'll known that Brown, through other
persons, obtained possession Of the WEST
nGHoUsE dynamo which he afterwards sold
TO tho State of New York. and which
caused the miserable laundering in the
execution Of KEMMLER.
The experience in this case really argues
little against electrocution; and whatever
pressure may be brought to bear on tho
New York Legislature to have the present
law repealed, that body should hesitate to
act until further tests have been made with
any Of the score of direct-current dynamos.
the death-dealing qualities of which have
been demonstrated in nearly every city OF
the country.

The New York Central Strike.

The public dependence up on railway
line is never properly understood or mp
preciated until suddenly halt is called by
some powerful labor organization. and
lightning express and passenger trains
are stopped, switches left to themselves,
round-houses deserted. and oil the vast
and complex parts Of the great machine lie
idle.
The New York Central from being one of
the busiest roads in the world dropped into
such q deadly silence and costly mac
tivity the day before yesterday evening.
1t is one of the properties of the WANDER
Bills, and while the owners and their at
torneys and chief officers roll in wealth.
their employees, it is alleged, are stinted in
wages to an intolerable degree. However
this may be ON the question of wages, and
because of the discharge of certain knights
of Labor, the strike was ordered and 1t
seems to have been carried INTO execution
with moro than military precision.
The inconvenience to which the public
was subjected was great. Travellers were
halted in the midst of long journeys.
Wives were cut off from their husbands.
Mothers who had gone to New York shop
ping were prevented from returning to
their babes. Suburban residents who
were at home could not get to New York;
those who were in New York could not get
home. There was confusion on grand
scale such as the stage in some sensational
scenes presents in miniature. but IS not
often seen in real life.
Yesterday the company were able to Sc
cure the services of some men not con-
nected with the Knights of Labor and
number of trains were run with varying
but never notable success.
1t will be difficult for the millionaire
owners of the road to offer complete SER
vice to the public for some weeks to come,
unless the strike breaks down or q basis OF
compromise is reached. Expert train and
yard-hands by tho thousand are not to be
gathered together at days notice, and
besides the sympathies of laboring men
generally will be with the strikers until it's
proved that they undoubtedly are in the
wrong.

Limit of Debate in tho Senate.


Mr.. HoAR, who is the patron in the Sen
ate of the substitute for the House force
bill. Yesterday offered q resolution pro-
yiding that the rules of the Senate be
amended so as to give to the majority
power to close debate in an arbitrary man
ner. His proposition was referred to the
Committee on Rules.
There is more significance in Mr.. HoAR's
movement than in Mr.. BLAIR's. The latter
acted upon his personal responsibility; the
former doubtless represents considerable
number of members Of his party and as he
has been given charge of the force bill 1t
NAV bo that the caucus has clothed him
with some sort Of authority as to this par
ticular motion.
Whether this latest manifestation OF Re-
publican intolerance is meant as threat
or Is the earnest purpose of the Radicals
we do not yet know, but We take it that
the chief object hoped to be accomplished
il the passage Of the election bill which is
so dear to the hearts OF Messrs. DAvEs-
PORT, REEF. and HoAR.
Mr. REED stakes his reputation "that
the measure Will go through the Senate"
The Philadelphia Press has discovered
from the census returns that the North
west viii not gain from the South as many
congressman as was expected and the
New York Tribune declares that las soon
as the Senate has finished the tariff bill 1t
will be the duty of that body to put aside
every other measure or question until it
can secure for honest voters some protec-
ton against Democratic frauds"
Very honest and patriotic indeed! But
how can they cut of debate on Mr.. HoAB's
resolution should IL be reported from the
Committee on RulesS
II is impossible as long as any Democrat
wishes to discuss it, unless. indeed. the
presiding officer of the Senate il ready to
act the dsspot - REED did in the House.
