About 1,500 volts are considered enough to electrocute a man at Sing Sing. Professor Tesla, who was burned out in New York yesterday, subjected himself to’ several thousand volts without being killed, while yesterday in Baltimore two children were shocked with 2,750 volts and live, though one, it is feared, may yet die. The accident occurred at 3 o'clock in front of 313 North Eutaw street. An electric light wire, which feeds the are lamp in front of the store, had become crossed with another wire and fell upon one of the iron cross bars of the awning frame. Little Clara Willis was returning to her home from a visit to an oculist and saw the blue flame leaping from the elec- tric light wire at the point of contact with the other wire. Involuntarily she started back and threw out her hand to clutch something. As she did so her left wrist struck the southern awning post, and the shock she received knocked her down. As she lay in the gutter with one foot touching the pole young Blake came along and stooped to pick her up. The electric current passed from Clara’s body to him, and he was also knocked down. Reviving, he got up and staggered north along the pavement. Apparently he had lost control of himself, for he fell against the middle awning pole and received another shock. His left arm wrapped itself around the post and effectually held him there with his face pressed against the charged pole. A crowd of people quickly gathered, and while the strong current burned the boy’s face and clothes the people stood by watching the harrowing scene and uncer- tain what to do. For over five minutes the girl and boy lay in the street, the blood dropping from the boy’s nose and mouth. A man finally seized a rubber overcoat and with it dragged the victims away, and they were attended. by physicians. ‘The girl was soon able to walk to her home. The shock seemed to affect her reasoning faculties, for she did not appear to know what had happened to her. It is supposed that the wire which cross- ed the Fort Wayne wire was one belong- ing to the Brush Electric Company, and which carried a current of 2,750 volts. The workmen of the Fort Wayne Company who repaired the break (the wire had been burnt in two), stated that their current was not on at the time of the accident. A wire of the Brush Electric Company, on Franklin street, near Eutaw, broke yester- day afternoon. One end fell on a horse, knocking the animal down. ——_+e2+___ A Picture for a School House.

Committees Selected for the E: ns Year ai Preliminary Steps Takeu Toward Amalgamatio: Yesterday was fraught with importance to the Sons of the American Revolution belonging to the local branch of the order. In the afternoon the board of managers met and sclected the committees to serve during the ensuing year, and at night there was a meeting of the society itself in the red parlor of the Ebbitt House. Prof. G. Brown Goode presided, and Mr. F. E. Storm was secretary of the evening gath- ering, and after prayer, a resolution was adopted amending the constitution so that hereafter Sons of Revolutionary soldiers who are regularly accepted by the board of management may be made honorary members of the society without the pay- ment. of annual dues. A communication of much interest to members of thé society who are descended from Maryland patriots was read by Sec- retary Storm. It was from the Maryland Society and detailed the famous battle of Long Island, in which Maryland soldiers took such valorous and distinguished part. The battlefield is now covered by the city of Brooklyn, and it is proposed by the members of the Maryland Society to erect a monolith to mark the spot where 80 many of their ancestors fought and died, and to unveil it at the coming anniversary of the battle in Augus' ‘The question of the union of the Sons of the Revolution with the Sons of the Ameri- can Revolution was taken up and the pres- ident was authorized to appoint a commit- tee of three to consider the proposed ami gamation. After a spirited discussion a res- olution was adopted recommending to the National Scciety the adoption of an amend- ment to the constitution providing that its president and vice president shall not be eligible for more than two successive terms. The committees appointed by the board of managers in the afternoon were an- nounced to be as follows: Executive-W. A. DeCaindry, John W. Douglass, Dr. E. M. Gallaudet, John B. Wight and Capt. C. D.

The letter of Captain Crossman of the American steamship Allianca has been re- ceived at the State Department. It has already been published in full by The Star, and so had come to the notice of the de- partment unofficially before its receipt by mail. Acting Secretary Uhl had already formed his own conclusion as to the course to be pursued. After looking over the let- ter carefully he wrote Captain Crossman asking for more particulars bearing upon the incident. Until these are furnished it is not probable that the complaint will be formally brought to the attention of the Spanish government. ‘The Point at Issue. The point upon which the State Depart- ment desires further information from Captain Crossman is the exact location of the Allianca when she was first signaled by the Spanish cruiser, and the whole case may turn on this point. According to Captain Crossman’s own story he had been in the habit of taking his ship on a course that brought it within a mile of Cape May- si, the eastern extremity of the island of Cuba. He ts reported to have said that on this occasion, hearing at Colon that there was trouble.in Cuba, he kept off the land, so that he was six miles off the cape when the incident occurred. From this state- ment it appears that the captain was aware that Spanish cruisers were patrolling the coast in search of filibusters, and that a rebellion was in progress, but it is not clear that he was outside of the Spanish marine jurisdiction, considering the fact that there are outlying keys or islands be- longing to the same nation. "That these may be regarded in establish- ing the boundary of the marine jurisdic- tion is shown by the act of our own goY- ernment in laying out the sixty-mile ex- clusive line around the Pribyloff islands last year. There is another but minor int upon which further information will e demanded, and that is whether the ship’s officer can be sure that the shots fired by the Spanish cruiser were directed at the Allianca or across her bows. More Spanish War Vessels. The Spanish government ts considering the advisability of ‘ncreasing its naval representation in the waters of Cuba. The presence of more vessels-of-war in that locality is desired in order that the gov- ernment may more effectually and prompt- ly intercept filibustering expeditions that so often threaten the peace of that coun- try and im assisting in putting down revo- luticns that arise. The authority for the above statement is Mr. Muruaga, the Spanish minister here, and it was made in connection with the report coming from Gibraltar of the loss of the Spanish cruiser Reina Regente. The minister suggested that the vessel repcrted to be lost was possibly one of those that the government had ordered or was about to order to Cuba, but whether it was one of them he did not know positively. The Reina Re- gente, the minister sald, was used in trans- porting troops and munitions of war be- tween Cadiz, Spain, cnd the African ports of Tangiers, Suta and Melilla. She was considered one of the best ships in the Spanish navy. ——_——_——_2+—____ Sister Michael died Monday night at the Carmelite convent at Baltimore in_ her fifty-ninth year.
