PROBABLE FRATRIcIDE.
A Chicago Merchant Found shot Throu.h

brother.

CHICAGO, September 5.-Williand d.
Downie, member of the Board of Trade,
was found dead in the basement of his
house, in ha Salle Avenue, tonight, with
builet-hole in the left temple.
He was alone in the house at the
time of the occurrence. From the fact
that the face was powder.burnt and the hair
scorched, It was at FIRST Supposed to be
ease of Suicide, but closer examination of
the position and direction of the wound,
and the fact that no weapon could be found,
led to the conclusion that it was murder. He
had brother, Charles ]. Downie,
with whom he had frequent
alterations with regard to the
undivided estate left them by their
mother, these troubles leading to a separa-
tion yesterday after an unusually stormy
scene, and an attempt by Charles to brain
his brother with an axe. This, with the
TACT that Charles once shot at William, led
to the suspicion that it was a case of frat
ricide. The police arrested Charles on the
way from the city to his suburban home,
and found on his person revolver with
one chamber empty.

Infected Rags.

WASHINGTON, September 6.-The Treas
ury Department received letter to-day
from DR.. Hill, United States Health Officer
at London, asserting that the Importation
OF rags into this country from England is
fraught with great danger. Smallpox, he
says, is and has been for some time preva.
lent in London, where quantities of rags
are collected and shipped to America, and
large quantities of continental rags are
forwarded to London for shipment to
American ports. These rags undergo no
process of disinfection previous to exporta-
tion and are very likely agents to convey
infection of cholera or smallpox If collected
in infected localities. Twenty.three bales
of rags were recently shipped to New York
by "Lydian Monarch" upon representa-
tion that they had not been collected in any
infected district, but investigation showed
they came from Dunkirk, France, where
cholera had just broken out. Large guam
titles of continental rags are now being
forwarded to America by Wall Hull, a
more dangerous port to ship from than
either Liverpool or London.
