TIGER FEARS INQUIRY.
Tammany Men Who Nay Be Uit-
nesses an Gas Investigation.

1t is altogether likely that several men promi-
nent in Tammany Hal. will experience sudden
breaking down in health soon as the legislative
committee comes To town and begins TO ask queS-
tions about the city's lighting contracts. Richard
Croker's famous working for my pocket all the
time did yeOman service in the campaign OF
1901 and the Tanmany leaders are in terror of hav-
ing anything of that kind said now.
Nothing pains the good Tammany man more than
a bad break He is TO be forgiven for
breaking all the commandments but if he makes
"bad break when under pressure he thereafter
is under a cloud of obloquy. When it became
known yesterday that the Senate had passed the
Page resolution some of the aldermen at the City
Hall began TO use bad language.
IT'S all 'Billy' Halpins doings. and he's backed
up by Odell,' said one of them. He wants 10 get
Charlie Murphy the stand and make him say
things abou- where he got IT.
In case there is an investigation some Of the
star witnesses will be Charles F Murphy. John T.
Oakley, the officials of the Consolidated Gas Com
pany. Mayor Mcclellan. Controller Grout. Alderman
James E. Gaffney and John J. Murphy, brother OF
the Tammany leader and mead OF the New-York
Contracting and Trucking Company the concern
which has obtained the contract for the gas COM
panys big plant in Astoria Controller GrOut seems
to think that unless the Page resolution is care
fully worded there will be found opportunities to
ward off immediate investigation OF the lighting
trust.
THE inquiry instituted by this department ap-
parentIv was on a sound basis" said the Con
troller. "but the companies have begun 10 use
dfatory tactics. While the Page resolution NAV
empower the committee TO send for persons and
papers, il is by no means certain that there will
not be delays
Probably one OF the most productive witnesses
will be Controller Grout and his engineers. They
have obtained a mass of data for the Controllers
investigation, and in the State asks for IT, il
will be forthcoming. Tammany leaders said yes
terday that everything connected with Commis-
sioner Oakleys lighting contracts had been made
known already, and that II would be burning now
der over again get Mr.. Oakey's story
One of the possible witnesses in the Investigation
will be Henry Fl. Rogers IL rumared around
the City Hall yesterday that when Controller Crout
and Commissioner Oakley were trying TO arrange
terms with the lighting company last falI the
terms were referred 10 Mr. Rogers. and that in an
the important steps of the negotiations the Con-
troller and the Commissioner were told By Walter
r. Addicks that Mr.. Rogerss approval was neces-
sary before dnal arrangement could be made.

COPPER PURIFIES WATER.
Chemist Kills Germs 7cith Metal
Plates and ELECTRICITY.

Thomas ]. keenan, Associate Editor of The
American Druggist" announced yesterday that he
thought metallic copper could be used n purifying
reservoir water by placing copper sheet in the
reservoir and then sending current Of electricity
through it, He hopes the Board of Health will
accept this suggestion, and viii begin soon d
series of experiments to determine if the proposed
scheme has any merit That copper foil placed in
water will kill micro-organisms in the water has,
it appears been proved the satisfaction Of the
majority OF chemists by Professor Henry Kraerper,
of the Philadelphia College Of Pharmacy. Pro-
fessor Kraemer does not pretend to, be the dis
covere- of the power OF metallic copper kill
micro organisms, such typhoid and colon bacl.
He took up the method proposed by DR.. Moore and
Mr.. Kellernan, and published in bulletin of the
United States Department of Agriculture some
months ago. The report of the discoverers of the
method laughed at soon after il was made
public but that Professor Kraemer's tests of
the method became known, on all hands chemists
are saying that a simple method has at last been
found make water chemically pure.
The only reasonable explanation for the action of
metallic copper in purifying water" said Mr.
Keenan, yesterday. is found the ionic theory of
the electIolitical dissertation The ionic theory is
a new thing in chemistry II accounts for what
takes place when salt is dissolved in water. When
dissOves table salt in water the salt is broken
up into ions of sodium and chlorine, which
charged electrically the sodium taking q negative
charge and the chlorine positive. Water itself
sists of a compound of hydrogen and oxygen. being
known chemists H2O. The ionic theory as
part molecules of oxygen and hydrogen. So when
strip OF copper is immersed in water il is reason
place and once the decomposition of the water. and
copper is started the water becomes filed with
electrically charged part molecules of copper oxy
gen and hydrogen This is the scientific explaEa-
tiOn of the phenomenon,
