WILL TAKE STEPS TO PREVENT

TROLYSIS
HELLO COMPANY SUSPECTED
Circumstances Indicate That 1t Has
Reen Lax in Its Establish
ment of Return Wire
Connections.

The water board is determined to
protect the thousands of dollars invested
in the city'S water system.
ANY attempt to use water connections
for transmitting electrical currents for
any purpose whatever will be steadily
followed, step by step, until there is no
longer danger that the water mains may
some day be found in a crumbling and
ruined state through the slow but power
full means of electrolysis. The street
railway company have acknowledged the
! evidence against them to be conclusive.
Evidence is now being collected against
the telephone companies for the same
purpose and it seems as il the quest has
been at length successful or else some
lengthy explanation will be necessary to
| account for the curious facts that are
in the possession Of the superintendent of
the water board.
The first inkling of the case in question
was found in the report of a plumber
Charles Schiller, who brought the atten-
ton of the secretary of the board TO
the fact that he had put three stems on
the ball cock of the closet tank at the
residence of o. H. Osmundsen 224 Penn
sylvania avenue. three times during
the last three months and that
although he had put on brass stem
each time he was called to replace it and
he found the metal so completely deconl-
posed that the stem had not been strong
enough to stand the pressure in the lit
tie tank of water. One odd fact is the
bright glossy state OF the sides of the
tank appearing almost as if the inside
had been recently plated
The facts point to the SuppoSition that
the water is a veritable electric bath
and lust what electrical connections have
been made with it remains to be seen.
While the current, which is ordinarily
employed for speaking purposes, is rather
insignificant, as much can not be said
Of the dynamo currents which send cur
rents powerful enough to ring a bell at Il
distance Of more than ten miles.
