Ended.

The second trial Of Henry Lundberg.
formerly assistant Inspector Of bulls in the
United States steamboat inspection service
for granddaughter resultant from criminal
neglect Of duty IN inspection Of the life
preservers on the steamboat General
Slooum, resulted, like the frst trial, In q dis
agreement At II o'clock last night the
jury was discharged.
Judge Thomas had instructed the jury
that while the statute required life pro-
servers to be examined carefully, yet II
the defendant was honestly influenced
by the practices OF his Office and the in
structions or methods Of his superiors,
that fact must be taken into oonsldera-
ton by the jury. People In public ofioe
learn from the practice Of the office. Still,
II a man knew the practice OF the once was
wrong, he would not be justified in setting
It up as q defence. Lundbergs knowledge
was to be tested from the statute, from
the regulations Of the department and from
the instructions Of his superiors combined.
and his inspection was 70 be judged upon
that which a man Of reasonable intelligence
would make under the same circumstances
In his private business.

INFLUENZA FOLLOWS TRAFFIC.
Spreads Along Fastest RAnroRd and
steamer Lines. says DR.. Anbutt.


LONDON, March 22.-Dr. Thomas O.
Allbutt, IeRius professor OF physio at
Cambridge University in an address to
the Hunterian Society declared that in
huenza was disseminated by express trains
and steamships. He said that when there
is an influenza epidemic the towns served
with quick trains are always the first to
be attacked
North China Is the cradle Of the disease,
% the Gsnges Valley is Of cholera. The
Trans-Siberian Railway greatly facilitated
the spread OF the disease. BokhHra was
the dissennlnA ting point Of the epidemic
Of 1850. From Engla nd the disease reached
New York in just the time occupied by
the fastest steamer in crossing the OCEAN,
DR.. Allbutt said be believed that only
thcss cases are infectious In which the
respiratory organs are affected. He mem
toned a new type Of tho disease, which hs
called continued influenza. In this form
all special sensations ere affected through
out oonvalesoenoe. For instance, q music
lover would find good music painful bore
dom until he had completely recovered,
when his taste would return.
The misery and depression 90 frequently
following influenza can be shortened by q
plain diet Of milk and Vegetables. Best
ten and other supposedly strongthenino
foods only delay recovery.

The gas investigating committee from

public sessions to-day. Only two men,
bers Of the committee Senator Stevens,
the chairman, and Asssmblyman Agnew
we're in the city yesterday. Mr. Stevens
sald the others we're detained in Albany
by important legislation and that the date
at which the taking Of testimony would be-
gin depended largely on the progress Of
that legislation.
Senator Stevens spent the greater part
Of yesterday in the Wall Street district
scouting for counsel. Since Henry W.
Taft declined the job the committee
has found that nearly every prominent
Republican lawyer in New York whose
attachments ft him for the place ia too
busy to serve. Mr.. Stevens announced
last night. however that he had found the
man, but he withheld the name until the
full committee should pass on Il.
Il was also decided yesterday to hold
the sessions Of the committee IN the Alder
mems chamber instead Of the old council
room. Senator Stevens said last night that
he understood that the committee could sit
unintorniptedly II it 90 desired. Where the
Aldermen would meet on Tuesdays in that

said, would not be allowed 10 have asso-

Sections and Cities of Virginia and

BY SIeet Storm.
BY Sleet Storm.

Richmond. Va, has been in heavy
coating OF ice since Friday, and tela
graph and telephone wires are falling
all over tie city. Every policeman
in the city and every fireman, includ-
ing the regular reserves and call men
are ON duty. The fire alarm system is
a wreck, except in the business Sec
tion of the city, where the wires are
underground. Richmond is almost
wholly cut eff from telegraph and tel
phone communication with the north
and south.
Except for single wire to Danville
and another to Washington, Lynch
burg was also cut off by telegraphic
communication with the north and
south on account of sleet storm
in the city, were put to work. The
200 linemen at work on new system
restored rhe circuits. Many OF them
went to Greensboro, N. c., whore the
worst of the storm appears to have
ben experienced.
The sleet storm experienced in the
section around Danville was the most
disastrous in years, entailing upon the
telephone and telegraph companies
damages of thousands OF dollars. Dan
vile was without any communication
to any points south.
Greensboro isolated.
Practically isolated from the out
side world, Greensboro, N. c., has been
in the grip of one of the worst sleet
storms it has experienced for years.
Telegraphic and telephone commune
cation was cut off for some time, due
to broken wires and falling poles. In.
estimable damage was done to trees
and foliage crushed beneath the
weight of icicles. Street car service
was seriously hampered and a general
discontinue ensued.
