This agent of destruction tsa wire, which, lke the tramps among human kind, has broken loose from its lawful connections aud 13 disowned and forgotten. Il swings at randow, usually from a pole to which It was attached wale still a thing of use, and, becoming charged with the current from an are light wire with Watch it has acquired too close an intimacy, transfers a fatal amount to the man who happeas to strike it with any part of his person. Some experienced electricians, anxious to save as much money a8 possible for the companies they serve, contend that, if the overhead Wire system is managed by prudent men, nothing is to be feared from the tramp wire. But, if tais be true, enough has been proved at coroners’ inquests which have been Leid ‘within the last year to show that the managers of overhead systems are uuiformiy linprudent. Ac- elden's do occur, Whos @unage It 1s equally tm- Possible to estimate or repur. What the public demands of the electric companies is that they ‘shall put their lines underground, where tramp Wires will be practically uakaowa, and where any aceldents that do occur when the conduits are en- Vered to make repairs &., will be suered by ex- perts, Whoknow what perils they have to face how to guard ag inst them, and who will, there fore, have nothing to fear except their own care.
