TO COMPEL PRISON TO
TAKE GERM LADEN BOY
Mother Gets RabeaS Corpus Writ
for Lad in Tombs Who Is
Barred by RefOrmatOry.
HELD HERE SEVEN WEEKS
Has Never Suffered from Diph-
liberia, with Which He Is In
fected, but Parent Fears
Disease May Develop.

When ii becomes known this morning
to the prisoners confined in tie Tombs
that one of their number has in his sys-
TEN MANY millions of diphtheria germs
perhaps they will insist on being taken
out of the prison, and some of them may
even be ready to brave Sing Sing with
out trial rather than remain in such
proximity 10 the person with the germs
The young man who is carrying the
diphtheria germs is Thomas Hart, seven
teen years old. who is under sentence to
Elmira Reformatory for attempted as
sault in the third degree Hart was SEN
fenced on January 30 last by Judge
OSullivan after confessing his guilt
but he has remained in the Tombs fol
seven weeks because the warden Of the
Elmira Reformatory refuses to receive
any prisoner who is afflicted with an in
fectious disease. So what to do with
Hart has been something Of problem
which may be solved when he is pro-
duced in the Supreme Court on a writ OF
habeas corpus which his mother, Mrs
Bridget Hart, of No. $40 East 10Th
street, obtained yesterday. The writ
directs Warden Fallon to produce Hart
In court.
Because OF the refusal of tire warden
of the Elmira Reformatory to have any
charges in his institution who have the
germs of contagious diseases, Or. Nc
Guire, the Tombs physician, examines all
the young men sentenced to the reforma-
tory, sending the culture to the Board of
Health for examination. In the culture
taken from Hart the Board of Health
examiners found myriads Of diphtheria
germs. although Hart has never suffered
from the disease. DIR. Mcclure said that
these germs may be present in any per-
son who has not had diphtheria. Also, 1t
was intimated that there may be other
prisoners in the Tombs who are SINH
larly afflicted.
As for Mrs Hart she is agitated from
the fear that her son might develop diph-
iberia In the narrow cell of the Tombs.
She says that In Elmira her son would
have greater freedom and better atten-
ton. Mrs. Hart insists that there is no
warrant for keeping her boy in tbs
Tombs. She also fears that he will not
receive credit on his sentence for the
time spent IN the city prison.
The cast OF Thomas Hart is just the
antithesis OF the case Of Mary Mallon
who has become known as Typhoid
Mary" She is a living culture OF typhoid
fever bacilll, and for three years the
Board Of Health kept her on North
Brothers Island. Hart has been rejected
at one state institution because he has
germs: Mary Mallon was held at another
also because she was germ carrier.
The fact has been established that
Typhoid Mary" has never been afflicted
with typhoid fever. yet II Is said that a,
least twenty eight cases have followed
her employment as cook In various ram
flies. She is suing the city OF New YORK
because the Board OF Health Kept hei
imprisoned on North Brothers Island
She was released by order of Health
Commissioner Ledcrle.

KING OFTEN FACED DEATH
Bombs Used Heretofore in Ell
forts to Kill Monarch.

Other attempts to Kill Victor EmInahue
TIT King Of Italy, had been made before
Yesterdays effort. Twice bombs nave
threatened his life. An anarchist plot was
discoveted on June q, 1906. in which twc
bonbs had been hidden in the Aurelar
vsu near the Porta San Lorenzo to wreck
the roval train on its return from Ancona
The bombs had time fuses. so that the!
could be placed on the track pelore u''
train appeared.
In May. 1901 as the King was on his way
10 Venice a bomb exploded near the ran
road track, only four minutes before the
roval train reached the place. The engine
stopped in the middle Of bridge over the
River Po. and 1t was believed that the
police. warned at the last moment. had
tagged the train.
In 1910 an alleged plot to kill Victor En-
manuel was foiled. Several anarchists re-
ported TO have come from the Argentine
Republic. with others from switzerland
are said 10 have sent warning TO the
King. Extra precautions. however pre-
vented any result.
His father, King Humbert |, was killed al
Monza by the assassin Bresci OH July ~
1900 Bresc fired several shots. all OF
which struck the Kings body. Humbert
was driving when the attack was made and
died before he could be taken TO the pal
ace. Bresci declared that he left America
to kill the King. but that he had no ac-
completes Bresci came from Paterson
y. j.. and asserted that he was natural
ized American. There IS no capital punish
ment under the Italian law and Bresci was
sentenced TO solitary confinement for life.
Victor Emmanuel. who succeeded TO the
throne on July %. 1870. was born November
II. 1859. lie was married on October -
1886 to Princess Helene. daughter Of king
Nicholas Of Montenegro. Four children
have been born-the Princess Jolanda, II

Humbert. the heir apparent, In September
I904. and Princess Gioyanna, two years
later.

Montenegrin princess. while picturesque
enough I'm the contrast 10 the undersizec

OF his fathers reign. For the Princess Hell

under papal auspices did much to concili

WATER COMPANIES SHIFT
Their Lawyers Now Clamor for
State Regulation.
lRy TeIegraph 10 The TrIbune.


Albany, March 14.-Attorneys represents
ing private water companies from all over
the state came TO Albany this afternoon
and strangely clamored for regulation OF
their companies by the Public Service Com
mission The Senate Judiciary Committee
gave a hearing on the bill Of Senator Fer
ris making such provision, and the water
company representatives were loud in
euIogizing it, In the past when any iegis-
lation suggested regulation Of public SER
vice corporations they fought 1t with de-
termination.
Opposed to the measure were the repre-
sentatives OF number Of municipalities
They had become suspicious on noticing
the eagerness with which the water COM
panies supported the proposition. On LOOK
ing carefully into its provisions, they found
it would delay, il not prevent altogether.
the municipalities from constructing their
own waterworks.
Ex-Assemblyman Jesse Phillips, repre-
senting the village Of Wellsville. said the
bill provided that parallel pipe lines could
lot be constructed In a municipality without
first getting a certificate OF necessity from
the Public Service Commission. He de-
clared that municipalities all over the state
were preparing to have their own water
works because OF the poor service Of the
private companies, and that if this bill
went into effect their efforts TO better their
water supply would be in vain. as it would
be next to impossible for the municipalities
to get the required certificate of necessity.
The water company lawyers argued that
under the bill new waterworks systems by
the municipalities would not be necessary.
because the companies under the regula-
ton Of the commission would be required
to give proper service.
THE only purpose Of the bill" Mr..
Phillips said afterward, 'fs to perpetuate
the private companies and prevent them
from being put out of business by munich
pahties building their own waterworks

The committee Of general chairmen Of
the system divisions OF the Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Engineers on the Eastern rail-
roads and the committee of twelve general
managers of railroads held their first con-
ference yesterday at No. % West 39th
street over the demands of the engineers
for general Increases Of wages on the
Eastern roads.
j. G. Stuart. general manager Of the Erie
Railroad, presided, and most Of the session
was taken up by Warren s. Stone. grand
chief of the engineers, in an argument in
favor OF the demands. The chairman asked
a number Of questions and took a different
view from that OF Mr.. Stone on some
points.
Mr.. Stone said. among other things, that
he wanted II TO be understood that the de-
mands were not made on account of the
increased cost Of living, but because Of the
greater responsibility placed on the en-
eineers during the last year. Trains were
run faster, requiring tne greatest care on
the part Of the engineers. and there ap-
peared TO be q demand for increased speed
in transit, which was constantly growing.
