The Committee on Streets held a called
meeting last evening to hear expert tes-
timony in regard TO the question whether
telephone and other light current wires
should he carried on the same system OF
roles with electric wires.
Major Stiles opened the discussion by
announcing that on behalf of the tele
phone company he would at once intro
duce testimony to prove the danger OF
stringing strong and weak current wires
on the same poles.
Mrs. Webster, the chief operator at the
Telephone Exchange, first took the stand.
A sworn statement made by her was read
with reference to numerous disturbances
in the telephone service caused by the
crossing of electric wires and telephone
wires.
She stated that If any disturbance oc-
CURED at night ii could not be remedied
until next day, because the Workingmcn
did not want to go up on the poles since
electric wires have been strung on the
same system, on account of the danger of
being shocked. Witness described the
manner Of the fire about year ago which
burned out the switchbc ard at the Tele-
phone Exchange. when the telephone SER
vice was interrupted for three days and

wire cut out which had caused the burn
ing out of the switchboard. an affidavit
was read from Vice-President Thomas ID.
Lockwood. of the American Institute Of
Electric Engineers. He strongly opposes
the placing of strong and weak current
wires on the same system of poles as

trict superintendent Of the Western Union
Telegraph Company at Chicago; Alfred
8. Brown. an electrical engineer in New
York; Isaac Miller, superintendent Of the
Western Union Telegraph Company at
Cincinnati; Isaac M. Farnham, electrical

Ions expressed I'm the affidavits read. and
illustrated his views on a model OF two
