WHEN SHOCKED by ELECTRICITY.
The Formula Of Treatment OF Victims
Prescribed by French Authority.
L'rom the Medical Racorl

Prescribed by a French Authority.
From the Medical Record.
One of the contingencies Of modern
civilization which is almost entirely
new and is wholly dependent upon the
development of modern industry is the
treatment of accidents from electric
shock. The matter has been discussed
quite thoroughly by physicians in this
country, but it has been worked out
perhaps more Systematically by Dr.
D'Arsonval. of Paris. who has recently
made a report to the Academic de Med
ecinc of Paris upon the method of treat
ing persons injured by electrical shocks
D'Arsonval states that electricity
causes death sometimes directly by the
disruptive and electrOlytic effects of
the charge on the tissues. This death
is final. 1t sometimes. however. causes
death indirectly by arrest Of respira-
tiOn and SyncOpc, caused by stimulation
of the nerve centers. Under these cir
cumstanceS n person may be revived II
proper measures are applied.
The formula for reviving the victim
of electric shock is this: The person
so disabled should be treated like one
drowned: in other words, he should be
laid upon the back and artificial res
piration performed in the way that Is
ordinarily prescribed. Some further
practical advice, however, is given to
those who are called at once to the
scene of the accident. and at the time
when the person is perhaps still in
contact with the wires.
OF course the first thing to be done is
to stop the current or break the con-
tact. In doing the latter one should not
touch the victim on the face or hands,
or any naked part of the body. 1t is
better to lift him by the coat tails or to
throw blanket over him and pull him
by this. Nothing that is wet should
be thrown upon him and if his clothes
are wet. the hands should not be put in
contact with them. A piece of dry wood
can be placed under the body and he
can then be lifted. The further treat
ment of the case is the familiar one
applied in attempting to restore the
drowned. The arms are Mnrked-and
the tongue is kept drawn out; the body
may sometimes be rubbed thoroughly
with a cloth or brush In order to in
crease the circulation of the blood. OXy-
gen and perhaps a stimulant may be
employed.

CAVE.lN AT ESPY RUN.
Lchieh Valley Siding Goes Down Main
Track Not Affected.

Some time early Saturday morning
the siding at Espy Run on the Lehigh
Valley railroad caved in, creating con-
siderable damage. The cave is due to
the fact that the Bliss mine workings
of the Delaware. Lackawanna and
Western company at Hanover, less
than half mile distant from Espy
Run, have been worked uD TO point
directly beneath the Lehigh Valley
tracks. The eXten: of the cave-in is
quite large. but it is particularly for
tunate that the main track is not af-
fected and therefore trains are running
as usual.
While there may be some danger Of
another cave, which, if it occurred.
would be likely to involve the main
track and thus prevent traffic, yet the
railroad and mine officials believe that
such a catastronhe Is only a remote
possibility, as they think the ground
has now settled.
