PARIS. Feb. M Duroquier. AN cleo

Interference with wireless waves from big

In an article In La Nature VI. Duroquier
tells how he noticed that the delicate APP
paratus belonging to the table where he
received messages were damaged when

found that when this was going on he was
able to explode a glass globe filled with q

NJ. Duroluier says he then discovered
that his laboratory was equlds,ant from

evolved the theory that Interference with

The theory Of NJ Duroquer. a French
electrician. that the Voiturno disaster. the
recent explosion in Cardff coal mine
and the explosions on French warships at
Toulon might be attributed to wireless
waves was ridiculed by New York wire

An expert OF the Marconi Wireless
Company of America said yesterday tina;
wireless waves of different character and

in Rate Case

Washington, May 4.-State Railway
Commissioner Thorne conferred with
Senators Kenyon and Cummins about
the situation in the advanced rate case
brought about by the action of Louis
D. Brandeis, special consei for the
commission. and supposed to represent
the public interests. coming out in ad-
missions that the railroads in the east
ern district need more revenue. and
otherwise helping the railroad side of
the controversy.
Both senators agree that Commits
sioaer Thorne ought 20 file supple
mental brief squarely taking issue with
Brandeis. Mr.. Thorae worked on the
matter yesterday and expects TO file it
today.
Senator Kenyon was deeply indig-
nant at the course taken by Brande!s.
He said it was nothing less than an
Outrage" for a man supposed to be
representing the peoples interest to
adopt the railroad view that the roads
needed more revenue.
