OF Death May BE Secured by THIS
German Scientists Discovery.
The discovery of the so-called
Roentgen rays has been followed by
sensational development. due to a
German scientist, Prof L. Friedrich.
Prof. Friedrich was engaged in study
ing the practical application of the
Roentgen rays when he made a dis
covery which has produced a great
sensation in both scientific and in lay
circles, says a Vienna correspondent
Of the New York Journal.
The professor succeeded In photo
graphing death-in other words, the
rays which he discovered enable it TO
be definitely ascertained beyond a
shadow Of doubt when life actually
leaves a human body. Since these in
VestigatiOns he has communicated his
discovery in short letter to the Wen
ma Imperial Academy of Science
At the present moment the medical
profession possesses no means Of alb
solutely stating that death has taken
place Doctors only draw their infer
ences In support of this view from the
appearance of certain changes in the
body. These, it is true. are usually
conclusive, but they are not infalIible.
and there is always the possibility
that mistakes may be made and that
a person who is only apparently dead
may Sulfer the horrors Of premature
irterment.
Prof. Friedrich now affirms that the
rays which he has discovered-he calls
them Kritik rays-reveaI with absolute
reliability the entrance of death into
the body. To quote his own words:
The Kritik rays are directed out OF
vacuum tube, and are so piercing that
they almost Immediately penetrate the
body upon which for the purposes of
experiment the investigator has turn
ed them. Those rays produce images
on the Photographic plate which are
Of different character according as
they are taken Of a living or of a dead
body. The photographing- of the hand
Is the easiest experiment in test work
I Of this kind. If, when 1t is laid on the
Photographic plate and subjected to
the Kritik rays, it appears as a living
hand does under the Roentgen rays,
viz, with all the bones clearly distip-
guished-then beyond question the per-
son is alive. If, however, the hand
does not yield its characteristic form
under this process the person to whom
1t belongs is undoubtedly dead.
I have arrived at this result by a
whole series of. experiments, which I
regard as absolutely reliable. The new
vacuum tubes which thus serve for a
post-martem diagnosis will have to be
employed by every DOCTOR"

HIS OWN NEGLECT.
Corouer's Jury Gives a Verdict on the
Violent Death OF William
Kerrigan.

The death of William Kerrigan, who
was found Monday morning at the
foot of the Won Storch shaft, was
the subject of an investigation by
a corOners jury which met at Coroner
Longstreet's office last night. The ver-
diet agreed upon, though not specify
ing the real condition of Kerrigan at
the time of his fatal fall, conveys the
idea that he was intoxicated.
Kerrigan's body was found by work.
men at 4.30 o'clock in the morning 1t
was lying in the gangway few feet
from the foot of the shaft. Mine In
spector Henry owen Prytherch, Of
the First district, brought about the
investigation.
The jurymen were: l.. H. Becker,
Wesley c. Adams, Harry E. Jones,
James Frable, Patrick Cusick and EN-
erson d. owen. Harry Berkeley. mine
foreman at the Won Storch mine, was
the first witness. His efforts were chiefly
directed in assuring the jury that Ker-
rigan was working in another mans
place Monday night, and that he had
not been authorized" to go into the
mine that night. Job Jenkins, fire boss,
testified that he found Kerrigan's body
near the foot of the shaft 1t appeared
to have struck the wings of the car
riage and rebounded as it fell.
THE BROTHERS STORY.
Anthony Kerrigan, brother of the de-
ceased, in his testimony gave the first
intmation that his brother was ire
sponsible on that night. He said that
earlier in the night he came across his
brother sitting on a bench with his
head between his hands. II told him.
said Kerrigan, that he wasn't in fit
shape to work and advised him to go
home. He was sick and told me he had
been smoking strong tobaccd" The
effort of the brother to hide the real
condition of the deceased was easily
understood by the jury. Kerrigan said
that he had taken his brother to the
top of the shaft and started him home.
William Phillips, fireman, told how
he with Engineer Games and two boys
had found the deceased sleeping near
an ash dump at 1.SO o'clock that morn
ing. Philips said: Let him sleep;
he'll get over it," Patrick ONeil and
Brian Berry, company hands, gave SIM
liar testimony TO that of Anthony Ker-
rigan.
Thomas Golden, company man, the
last and most outspoken witness, testi-
fled that he saw Kerrigan, the deceased
sitting on a bench in the mine. He
said to me, i think I'll take the pledge
for year and l answered Tt wouldn't
hurt you if you took it for two years. ~
The verdict rendered was as follows:
We the undersigned jurors &
find that said Kerrigan came to his
death by falling down the Van Storch
mine and we believe further that the
death of said Kerrigan was through his
own neglect"
Mine Inspector Prytherch was present
at the inquest. The funeral Of Kerri-
gan was held yesterday afternoon from
the home Of his parents on Keiser ave-
nue.. The funeral cortege proceeded to
Holy Rosary church where funeral SER
vices were conducted.
