Can anything that cannot be seen,
handled, weighed or measured be
stolen? Does the taking and carrying
away OF thing that is intangible con-
stitute larceny? These questions have
been raised in a court in st. Louis, but
not satisfactorily answered. A man
was arrested for larceny. his alleged
crime consisting in attaching a wire to
one used to convey a current of cleo
tricity, his object being to secure
electric illumination without expense.
The grand jury failed to indict him be-
cause they regarded electricity as a
force. Every new invention is likely to
call for changes in the criminal code.
