TO A SHELL
NUE. BADLY DAMAGED BY
ELECTRIC CURRENTS
CAUSED BY TROLLEY POLES
Papers Are Being Prepared by Cor
pOratiOn Attorney for the Sutt
Against Street Railway
Company.

The destructive effects of eIectrolysis
was further shown yesterday when
workmen unearthed near a main on
West University avenue section of pipe
that was practically eaten to a mere shell
by the stray electric currents.
When the men first unearthed the pipe
the iron was so heavily charged with
the fluid that they could not touch it.
Experts were finally sent from the water
department, and this difficulty over
come. Some of the workmen declared
that they had received a shock, but the
superintendent was inclined to doubt it.
The pipe was near one of the iron col
umns set in the center of the street, which
is used in supporting the trolley wire, and
any undue presence of electricity is cred
tied to its close proximity.
The legal department in the past three
days has received letters from a number
Of cities now preparing to sue electrical
and street car companies for damage
done by electrolysis. In Indianapolis
the street car company there has been
made defendant in a suit for 500 900,
brought by the Gas company, of that city,
which claims it's mains and pipes have
suffered to that extent by reason of the
stray currents.
Secretary Caulfield, of the water de-
partment, says the proposed suit against
tiAO AO~e'A 81 SSt Cal COIHpdly VIII NOT De
dropped nor will any effort as far as
the board is concerned, be considered
having for its end the reopening of the
controversy. The papers in the suit
are now being prepared and as soon as
they are inspected by Corporation At
toTney Marian, will be filed with the
clerk of the district court.
They win probably take the shape of
an application for an injunction to COM
pei the company to take steps to prevent
the nuisance, to be followed later by a
suit for damages actually sustained by
the city.

DIVORCED BY DEATH
ENDS LITIGATION INSTI-
TUTED BY WIFE
COULD NOT LIVE TOGETHER
Court Refused to Grant Her the De-
sired SepRratiOn-Eigem ann De-
parted Abruptly BODY
Found in River.

1t was tragic separation, but death
did for Mrs. Susie Eigemann, Of North
st. Paul, what the Ramsey county dis
trict court refused 10 do, and gave her
an absolute divorce from her husband,
Jacob Eigemann. The identification yes
terday of the body OF a fioater found Fri
day, washed up on the river bank at the
foot of Pine street, as that Of Jacob EfSe-
mann, of TAO Third street north, Mime
apolis, marked the finale in a bitter DO
nestle quarrel in which the dead man
and his wife figured less than two months
ago.
At the January term of court Mrs. Su-
sic Eigemann, frail little woman, was
an applicant for a divorce from Jacob
Eigemann, alleging that her husband had
deserted her late one night while @en
route to St. Paul on an interurban car.
There was a quarrel, he left her abruptly,
and from that day on she and her son
were compelled to subsist and get along
as best they could.
The wife waited a year she thought,
the time required by law, before applying
for a realease, but her figuring was
wrong, and the court refused to enter
tain her application She was lacking
just one day 1t was also revealed in the
testimony that during the husbands alb
sence from home she had met him on the
streets in Minnea polls, and here an at
tempt at reconciliation by the husband
was made, but it failed
Again the wife tried, advancing the
plea that her husband was a nonresident
of the state, but like the first, it was a
failure. The court refused absolutely to
interfere in their domestic troubles.
The body was identified by the mans
brother, Philip ]. Eigemann, of Mime
apolis, with whom he boarded during the
difficulty with his wife. He was employed
at North st. Paul as cabinetmaker
His domestic troubles seemed to weigh
heavily on his mind, and it is thought
this caused him to end his life. He dis
appeared Jan. s, and is supposed to have
jumped from the stone arch bridge in
Minneapolis.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 6.ALate tonight
Mayor Capdevielle sent a letter to the New
Orleans Street-railways Company ordering
them to run their cars beginning at
o'clock tomorrow morning.
At 2 o'clock this morning the mayor re-
scinded his previous order in regard to op-
Grating cars for the reason that he saw
settlement of the strike in sight. To-day
both sides practically agreed on PROPOSE
tion for the men to return to work at 2Oc
an hour and eight hours day. The COM
pany insisted on the proposition coming up
to it in formal form from the union and
to be presented through the mayor by 8
o'clock tonight The union considered the
proposition and rejected it, and further,
the press committee issued a statement
that the subcommittee was not authorized
to act for it. The mayor waited until 8
o'clock for the reply of the union and, not
receiving any, sent the letter TO the COM
pany to run its cars.
The mayor was asked what would be the
outcome If the company failed to run It's
cars: He replied that it would then be up p
to the City Council to consider whether 1t
had forfeited it's franchises.
In the meantime, preparations are gong
forward to place the police in a position TO
protect the barns from which the cars will
be run. The first attempt will be made
from the Canal-street barn, and seventy
policemen will be stationed there to-mor-
row morning. Cars also will be operated
from the Prytania and Arabella barns.
Later this afternoon the attorneys for
the company had the suit for receiver,
filed in the Civil Court Friday. transferred
to the United States Court on the ground
that the railways company Is a foreign
corporation, incorporated under the laws

PARIS, Oct. 6.-The banquet of the Re-
publican Committee of Commerce and In
dutsry, which is organized annually on the
eve Of the autumn session of Parliament,
was held tonight. The thousand guests
included several ministers, senators and
members of the Chamber of Deputies. Pre-
mier Combes delivered a long speech, in
which he explained and defended the policy
of the government and strongly denounced
the counter-revolution under which royal
lists and other opponents of the republic
while shouting long live liberty had at
tempted to snatch from France all the con-
quests of the revolution.
The premier promised, as long as Parlia-
ment extended it's confidence to the Min
istry, TO display no weakness in carrying
out the laws of associations. While count
ing on the support of the commercial and
industrial community, said NJ. Combes, the
government would aim at preserving peace
at home and abroad the best guarantee
for happiness and prosperity, and that he
was happy to say that Frances excellent
relations with all foreign powers rendered
peace more solid than ever.

Interest in the American Strike.

BERLIN, Oct. 6.-The coal strike in the
United States is attracting more and more
attention here. The newspapers print
rather full accounts of the conference at
Washington. The press takes sides with
the miners and censures the operators for
their unyielding attitude. The Frankfurter
Zeitung, regarded the best financial au-
thority in Germany, to-day devotes a lead
ing editorial to the strike. 1t alludes to the
spirit of the operators as .iunacy of
fancied greatness and adds: when the
coal combination sees it is able to throw
70.000000 of people into anxiety and need
and remain beyond reach ii will naturally
get the idea that it holds possession of the
grace of God, like the potentates of old
Europe
This paper also alludes to the probable
effect of the continuance of the withdrawal
of English coal for the United States and
says it Is likely England will draw from
the continent the deficit caused by the ship
ments to the United States, and concludes:
Hence, IL the strike continues, the price
of coal will rise on the continent
