Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD
BOSTON, Mass, March 12.-Edward J.
O'Brien, scientist, author and lecturer,
makes the striking announcement that
the mysterious fires on the Macdonald
farm at Antigonish were not being set
by a pyromaniacal ghost but that their
origin was the result of wireless flashes
between the two most powerful radio
stations on the Atlantic coast-on the
direct line OF which he declares lies the
ghost farm"
He adds he has ascertained that other
mysterious fires lie along the direct line
between these two stations. All the
fires. he asserts, show they have an
electrical source. These two powerful
stations are located at Well Fleet, Mass.
and at Glace Bay. Mr.. OBrien con-
tinues:
THE MacDonalds win have to move
their house out of the range Of those
powerful currents or that is liable to
burn down, too, one Of these nights when
atmospheric conditions are just right,
similar TO those on the nights when the
fires We're set around the barn.
Take the map. trace the line, apply
your scientific knowledge of wireless
operation, study the curious effects of
electrical fires on ships and on land In
cases where you know they were caused
by wireless currents and you have the
solution of the fires now being blamed
on the ghost.

parts of the committee-s program. Per-
sonaly, ] am opposed to trying to regu-
late human affairs by commissions.
There has been too much of that sort of
regulation of late years. But this preju-
dice should not blind US to the necessity
of given proposal.
Briefly. the bill requires every trade
association of which competitors are
members to take out a license. In order
to secure such a license it must establish
to the satisfaction of the Superintendent
OF Banks that its purpos ss are lawful.
The bill places every such association
urder the supervision of the Superin-
tendent Of Banks. Any corporation or
officer Of corporation may then safely
become a member. 1t will be the duty
Of the superintendent to see to it that
the associa ton thus licensed operates
strictly within the law and that it is not
made the medium for price fixing, re-
striction of output, division of territory
between competitors or other illegal
and unfair methods by which sxtortion
i5 now practiced upon the public.
"A business man who joins or per-
sists in remaining member of an as
sociation that is not licensed will be
guilty of a mlsdemeanor. Complaint is
constantly being made by business men
that the antitrust laws are indefinite
and that there is no place for them to
go to ascertain what they can and can
not lawfully do. If this commission bill
becomes a law they will know ey can
safely join a licensed association for
legitimate cooperation between C mpet-
itors and that they must not join one
that is unlicensed. That win be boon
to honest business and Will make 1t easy
to convict the others.
