TITR OMA.UA DAILY ftRE : ' WRDNESDAY. JULY , in ELECTROCOTED A WORKMAN Violent Death of a Bollcrroakor in a Man- bole , CHARLES EKMAN ROASTED ON A LIVE WIRE lie Wai ItoimlrliiB i\ Holler In the 'Motor 1'oxfer lluime RtnlV * ( liven nn Int- lierfcclly Iiuulntcd Light Wire liiituntly Killed. A cao of electrocution occurred yesterday morning at tlio street railway power house at Twenty-second and Nicholas s'.rcuts , nml the body of the \lctlm , Clnrlca Hitman , lies nt Maul's moifiuo axxalthitf the notion of the coroner's Jury. The deceased xxas In the employ of Wilson ft. Dr.iko , bollormakcrs , nt ii htconth and Pierce , and xxas sent tottio power house this morning to make some repairs on one of the bolters that generates the steam to run the djnamoB As the only opening Into the boiler Is the stn.ill manhole nt the end , It la necessary to use nrtlllulal light in making repairs on the Inside and this was furnhhed In this case hv an Intandcsccnl lamp .it the end of several . \aids of slack xxiro , xvhlch wns , boxNoxer , supposed to bo thoroughly in- BUlalcd. * The lamp x\as placed Inside the boiler , with the wire resting on the lower side of the manhole. Kluimn then started to crawl inside , but ho never passed through the fatal opening. Ills assistant , Michael J'roy , who was at the other end of the boiler , heard him scream , iincl tunning mound to the opening , found Kkinan l.vlng In the manhole - hole , xtlth Ills head and shouldus inside the holler and his lugs hanging down outside. Ho at once saw that something xxas xxrong , and seized Ukman by the ankles to draxx him out to the open air , but received n so- xoro shock as soon as ho touched the body of his companion , which hurled him sexcral feet away. Ho had , how oxer , moxcd the body of nkman sufilclently to cause the loucr part to oxerbalantc the upper , and the body fell out of the inanholo and to the lloor below. Assistance atrlxed Immediately , but Kkman did not niox'o or breathe , and an ox- nuimatlou showed that ho xxas dead. Hun It lluii | > unc < l , A single glance at the fatal wlro showed pithily how the accident had happened. The Insulation over a pirt about an Inch long had been torn off , leaving the wire exposed - posed , and In crawling acioss It the deadly ctiirent had been communicated to the body of the unfoitunato man His shlit , wet with the pcispirntton of hard toil , had furnished a fieo conductor to the subtle fluid and the DOO-xolt stieam of electricity , backed by a piessuro of fiom 400 to COO Amperes , xxns forced through his body , thence to the metal walls of the boilei alxnc nnd cm cither side of him. The poweiful current had burned and blhtcicd the flesh in a number of places , and the unmistak able odor attending It wns plainlj noticeable when the horror-stricken stokers gatlu-iea nround the lifeless foim. Coroner Maul wns at once notified and rc- moxed the body to Ills moiguo. An examination of the remains disclosed n deep burn on the abdomen .is hutre as the nalin of a. man's hand , xxith in irks running from it toward either side , indicating where the wire had been A long , uaiiow burn also extended ticioss tno chest nnd tv > o Hrgo blistcis , ns largo as sllxcr dollais , xxcte found on the riuht hip The light aim was buincd from the shoulder neail.x to the elbow nnd on the right shoulder blndo was n bum nnd blister , four inches wide nnd sex en inches long. On the chest and Abdo men the skin wns burned to a crisp , nnd the llcsh undeinealh was chat red On the head , Just abox-o the light temple , was a biulse , nnd tic if It a gash an inch and a half long , but these wcio caused by striking against u piottuding iilcco of iion ns the bodj fell from the manhole. Neither of them would ha\o been serious wounds , and it is prac tically certain that the man was dead before ho was seen by his companion. ISkman was ! ! ! > years of ago nnd unmar ried , and boaided at Twcntj-lUth street and Popplotonaxcnuo. He had been in the employ of Wilson & Drake for ten joars , and was rc- parded as a faithful , haidworking and cnte- ful man. ihu emplojcs at the power house had been accustomed to use this wlie and light Vihenox'ei an > thing of the kind was In de- Iiiantt , and h id not noticed th it the insul.i- t'on ' was imperfect. One of thorn thought the defect was the icsuU of Milking the xxhoablow with a haminei1 , thus rutting the foxoring , but whether this was done by the deceased while nt xxoru , or whether o'r not it was done in th it wav at all , is some thing that can only bo surmised. Coroner's Initi [ < > ht. The inquest oxer the remains of EUman was held at the morgue yesterday afternoon. But three \\ltnesses weio examined Troy , the nompanlou of the dead man , Superin tendent Tutl.cr , of the stioot railwu\ com pany , and ,1 M Wilson , the senior member of the Him for which the deceased vroiked at the time of his death Nothing was teamed as to his dc-ith , 111010 than is stated aboxe , ns theio was no eyewitness of the occunenccb immediately preceding the fatal contact with the xviio. The juiy ro- tumed a xcidlct of death hi nccliUnt.il olcc trie shock , and no blame was attached to anone. . A careful examination of the premises joiteulay afternoon demonstrated Uoiond n doubt that the burn on the abdomen of the derased xvas partly caused by 11 hot water nnd steam pipe , and partly by tlio electric cmiLMit. ' 1 ho inanholo Is a llttlo moio than waist high fiom the tloor , and the plpo tuns along Just below It. There is ox cry reason to boliox'o that the dead man had put his head and shoulders thtough the hole and hiidjust thrown his xxoight on his chest xxhenhorccelxed tliobhoek\\Iiich xxasof suf- llclent foico to dopuxo him of coiuiol of his muscles , and throw him upon the \vlio help less IIo was also thrown upon tlio hot pipe nt the snmo time , and olcctricl ins in u of the opinion that the metal pipecaused the cm rent entei ing nt the chest to seek an outlet tit the abdomen , nnd ns his clothing Jnterx'ened nn nio wns foimed , which burned tin ) clothes and also caused the huge bum In the flesh nt that point The shape of the bum Indicates that it xxas In contact xxlth the pipe , while tlio curicnt must haxo passed through there to haxo charred the llcsh. It Is not belioxcd that the burns on tha arm nnd shoulder were caused by the curient , ns the metal framework of the hole is Insulated in the hio wall , and * nuld not haxo offoicd n readj passage 'J hose burns xvero undoubtedly caused by contact xxilh the plpo after the body fell to the floor. Wlro XViu All Might. It seems qulto certain that the light xxlro wns all right * vheii Ukman started Into the boiler and that when ho pressed it upon the sharp comer of the opening the Insulation XMU either cut or so tightly compressed that the current passed thiough to Ionian's body , the arc , thus foi mod but ning off moro of the inuulatlon and within u xory short time covering the xviro Itself. niccti Iclans nre at u loss to knoxy xx lint caused Klimaii'b death , ns they say that tlio current wns not sufllciont to cause It Tha light xvas on n sldo circuit with four other lights , and wns connected by a half nmpoiu fuse , xxhlch would haxo burned out had a Btiongor current pnsacd through it. It Is maintained that death could haullyhaxo been caused by.lt , had not the xtctim had oiganio heiiit tioubio , In which case the shock might haxo had n fatal result. Ho that as U may , the unfortunate n man came lu contact xxlth n current , howoxer strong it may haxo been , and did not survixo it , anil the bums Just over the heart nnd on the abdomen show that thu current xvas not a weak ono. t'l'mso " before ' nerxou * taking Hood's tearsaparllla.

Judge Dundy xxas listening to motions In equity cases and xxas occupying ho sm ill court room on the second lloor. 31oso by his desk thcro h n door xxhlch opens Into the hall. While the Judge xxas engaged In xx riling nn order in the docket this door opened gently and an Instant .ater in stepped a xxoman , accompanied Dsi small girl. Thinking no doubt that she had simply cntciedn prixato oftlco the xxoman ipproached the Judge and said : "Couldn't I sell \ou some tickets for a chicken pie suppcrdown on South Tixenth-fourth stieet ?

Campbell , the clerk of the Nebraska supreme couit , a postal card bear- ng the ir.form itlon that the opinion In the Omaha pixlug case has not been filed by the court and that only a memorandum of the .udgment xxas glx'cn. Mr. Council had asked for n copy of the opinion nnd the reply of the clerk Indicates that it xxill bo some time before t no opinion in full is filed , [ icrhaps not before September. Hoxxexcr , Mr. Council Is of the opinion tha-C.thc memorandum furnishes sulilcicnt enlightenment for the council to proceed.and that It is xx holly unnecessary to haxo the opinion in full , as all of the points nt issue haxo been covered. In his Judgment the paving can noxv be proceeded xxlth in the districts where majority petitions have been filed , conditional or otherwise The attorney also expresses the belief that In the future It xx ill bo nocossnry to nvoid complications to have a clear majority asking for ttio creation of a paving district before the same can bo done. With the districts in hand Mr. Con- neil considers that the hue to follow is laid out In the decision and that the contracts can bo executed and the work of pax ing pro ceed us soon as the bonds are disposed of.
