QUICK AS LIGHTNING
TIE LIFE WENT OUT OF JOHN
FREEMAN.
He Attempted To Turn the Current On
From an Electric MOtor-An Illinois In
sane Asylum Burns Six Fatalities -
Other News.

Other News.
New YORK, March l4.-John Free
man, a clerk in Melville Strong's silver
plating shop on East Thirteenth street
was instantly killed by electricity while
irving to shut off the current from a
Baxter electric motor. There was a
leak somewhere, and the full power OF
the East River company's arc current
filed the iron base OF the motor and the
steel axle. About 3 o'clock in the after
noon Supt. ID. l.. Elder, assisted by Jack
Blatt, the engineer, set to work to bring
up the speed to 5000 revolutions IN order
TO finish aff a job of polishing. The floor
of the room is covered with sheet-lroh;
Standing on this, Mr.. Elder happened
to touch the base of the motor with a
steel speed indicator. which he held in
his hand. and he received a powerful
shock. which nearly knocked him down.
Later on he and Blatt received another
shock nearly as bad. The sheet-iron
floor touches the gas and water pipes in
places, and through them, doubtless, the
ground connection was made. Mr..
Elder laid ssme boards over the sheet
iron in front of the motor and warned
everybody in the shop not to go near it.
At 6 o'clock he directed young Freeman
to remove some ware from the silver
baths, saying that he would then shut
off the motor.
Freeman removed the ware as di-
rected, and then attempted to shut Off
the motor himself. A boy who was
washing his hands near by says that
Freeman first lighted a match and
looked at the machine before touching it.
He was standing on the sheet-iron floor
at the time, as the boys. when they
swept up the shop at niehtfall, had re-
moved the boards and not put them down
again. Freeman reached into the metal
switch by which the current was shut
off, at the same time bringing his fore
head close to the swiftly revolving steel
axle. Then he fell to the floor dead. A
slight burn was found on his forehead.
Mr.. Elder says that if he had touched
the metal switch lie would probably have
been killed just as quickly. but from the
fact that his hand was not burned and
his forehead was it is probable that he
touched his forehead to the axle before
reaching the switch. Later on the cur
redt was turned off by another insulat-
ing switch. Freeman took great inter-
est in the electrical and mechanical work
around the building, all Of which he
Thought he understood perfectly.
