NEW USE FOR MARCoNI THEORY
Surgeon Avoids Anaesthetic by short
Circuiting "a Nerve.

NEW YORK, Feb. Observation-Disclosures a
nerve and so preventing sensation from
reaching the brain is the theory OF a new
discovery made by DR.. G. c. Carroll, OF
this city. The discovery is regarded as a
substitute for the use of anaesthetics. The
discovery OF the wave theory OF electrical
transmission led 40 the discovery OF the
possibility Of short-circuiting a nerve. DR..
Carroll took up the subject OF oscillations
along the nerves and experimental until
he found that the rate of oscillations is
approximately 10000 per second. Marconi
has found that wireless telegraphing re-
Quires 10000 oscillations per second.
A practical application OF the theory OF
Short-circuiting a nerve popularity compre-
"A glass electrode !" shaped 10 fit under
the chin, with the ends pressing against
the skin just back Of the ears. No incision
Is necessary TO form the connection be-
tween the electrode and the ganglia. Con-
nectiOn is also made with the patients
hand or feet. The Oscillator is then set in
motion. The nerve action IL shOrt-cir-
Quilted because the oscillations Of the cleo
trio current are the same as those OF the
nerve current, and all sensation A. cut OF
from the brain. Only the sensatOry nerves
are affected. Voluntary muscular action Is
left normal. AS no sensation reaches the
brain no pain Is Derceptible. and that Is
the one great value OF the discovery. Short
circuiting will allow Of the performance OF
tremities and on external surfaces OF the
body, without pain 10 the patient and with
out the necessity OF putting the patient
under the influence OF an anaesthetic.

CHOIR BOYS ON STRIKE.


NEW YORK, Feb. Lied by the twelve
year-old son of the rector. forty BOYS.
comprising the choir OF ST. Clements Prot
estant Episcopal Church, have gone on
strike. and at the morning service yester-
day hooted and jeered the four men soIoIsts
who furnished the vocal music. They had
preceded this by stoning the chapel on
Saturday evening and were routed by the
police. At the evening service the bows
maintained a dignided silence. There were
two policemen stationed at the main en-
trance TO the church. At the conclusion of
the service the boys met on the corner and
discussed their grievances.
To-day the forty strikers-the Oldest Is
not vet fifteen years-tOld the rector. Rev
DR.. Franklin Moore. with the ~rector's son
as spokesman. that the Organist and choir
master had instituted a plan OF fines thai
took from them all remuneration for their
services and left them in debt 10 the church

CHESTER, H.. Feb. I.-Judge Hartsell
in chambers to-day heard the application
for a writ OF habeas corpus for William
French. The ground on which the petition
was based is that French should have been
committed on a definite sentence, whereas
he was sentenced under the ndeterminate
sentence law. The attorney general was
represented by Hon. George b. GilIesnie
an assistant. and the claim was urged thar
as the court hads Jurisdiction OF the person
and OF the o1ense the Judgment of the
court was not void vut voidable. and thar
the question could not be raised by petition
for a writ OF habeas corpus. but the remedy
lies by a writ OF error. The court held with
the attorney general. This will be a bar 70
further release Of prisoners under writs OF
habeas corpus and is quite a victory for the
State.

Less than the average number of hogs ar
rived for the market to-day, but with a
few loads carried over from last week the
supply on sale was about as large as usual
for Monday. The quality was fairly salts
factory, but there were not enough of each
grade TO fix a range in prices. In harmony
with other markets buyers here were nat
urally bearish, but a trading basis was es-
tablished rather early. and a good clear
ance was made. In isolated cases hogs av-
eraging less than 200 lbs were considered
nearly steady. compared with the low time
Saturday. but the general market, by most
dealers, was considered 5d10c lower than
Z. that time. Packers were the principal
buyers, and the close was steady at the
decline. Sales ranged from S.65d6.S5. Quo

Condition of other Markets.

UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPO-
LIS, Feb. MISUNDERSTANDING, 100; ship
ments none. A very small number OF cat
tie arrived for the market to-day and the
true condition OF the business could not be
sscertained by representative sales. Most
or the offerings were odd punches OF just
fair quality, and there was not a complete
variety of grades. Therefore the market
was necessarily quiet and buyers were not
interested to any extent, but finally took
all the supply at %quotably steady prices
compared with the way equal kinds sold at
the close Of last week. Reports from other
places this morning are not very encourag-
ing, but the conditions here could be less
favorable. It is evident that practically all
buyers will depend exclusively on this mar
ket for their supplies this week, and in an
ticipation Of only enough cattle TO meet the
requirements statesmen are hopeful for a
steady market. 1t is not probable, how
ever, that former prices will prevail should
the receipts be excessive. Quotations:

other railroads, saying he had given
notice to the defendants as required by
the court. Chief Justice Fuller announ-
ced that the argument would be heard
later in the day. w. D. Guthrie for the
Northern Securities Company, filed a
brief outlining the company's position.
He contended that the bill of complaint
on behalf of Minnesota does not pre-
sent that q controversy of civil and
judicial nature between one state and
a citizen of another state is not justifia-
BILE in this court, and no state can call
upon this court to enforce it's penal or
police laws in other states. The bill
asks the court, he said, to restrain by
injunction citizen of New Jersey
from doing there acts, entirely lawful
according to her laws, simply because
these acts violate or evade or tend to
circumvent the public or penal or police
laws of Minnesota, the complalnants
state. Guthrie contended for contin-
uance of the policy which had pre-
vailed, he said, during the history Of
the government Of allowing each state
to control it's own affairs without In
reference on the part of the federal
judiciary.
This afternoon Attorney General
Douglass made an argument in support
of his motion for leave to file bill of
complaint.
