TEE pEons BRIDGE INQUEST.
Expert Says Current Was Not Reversed
Track Fixed After Accident.

BRrDaEPoRT, Conn. Aug. 10.-The most
important testimony offered to-day at tho
coroner's inquest on the Shelton trolley road
accident, was that OF Eugene Is. Underwood. Of
New Haven an electrical expert, and George
4. Halves OF this city. Mr.. Underwood yester-
day made an inspection Of the equipment OF
the wrecked car. and Mr. Halves. who was on
the spot early Monday morning. tho day follow
ing the disaster. exhibited six Photographic
views. showing a gang OF men tamping the
dirt along the track on the northern side OF the
bridge.
Mr. Underwood told the jury that he found
evidences that the electrical equipment OF the
car had been disturbed after the disaster. He
did not think the condition Of the controller as
he found it was caused by the fall Itappeared
rather that tho parts that were disturbed had
been interfered with by someone. He said
the machinery showed that the current had
not been reversed.
Mr.. Halves. while the jury was examining
his photographs. was asked II at the time he
was taking the views he had an idea they
might be used as evidence. He replied in the
negative and added that perhaps he would not
have thought OF presenting them at this time
had 1t not been stated that no effort had been
made to fix the track after the accident and
before the visit OF the jury to the scene
