the crossing of one Of their wires with
wire having a powerful dynamo current,
such as a trolley or an electric light wire.
1t was thought at first that this contact
occurred somewhere in this city, but an
examination seemed to prove otherwise.
There are three places where such cross
ings might possibly have occurred between
the Western Union building and Bright
wood, but there were no indica tions of con-
tact at any of these points. 1t was there

been with some strong electric current out

vicinity of Baltimore.
But the investigation has not yet cleared

established beyond question.

The John Shea habeas corpus case came
up before Judge McComas today. Messrs.
Cook and O'Neill, counsel for the petitioner.
fled a number of authorities in support of
their petition, and the matter was discussed
with the court. One Of the principal points
involved is the appointment of Justice
Samuel c. Mills as acting Judge of the court
during the summer. Judge McComas did
not decide the case. Judge Cox made the
appointment of Justice Mills. and for that
reason Judge McComas thinks the matter
would come more properly before him.
Judge Cox is now out Of the city, but he
will return next week and then the matter
will be argued.
