RICHMOND, Ind, April 13.-Tuesday DR..
Helms. OF Williamsburg, this county, was
called to Ridgeville, Randolph County. by
the death of his sister, Mrs. John Green.
To-day N. B. Williams, a relative OF the
family, came TO the city and he says that
Green and the rest of the family, three
daughters and two sons, are afflicted with
trichinosis, and have been without know
ing it since Easter Sunday. They at first
only became feverish, then, the latter part
of the week, the muscular twitching Pc
cdliar to the affliction was followed by
spasms, but the symptoms Of what was
considered very strange disease by their
attendant was not defined until Mrs.
Green's death, when six OF the trichina
were found in a piece Of ham the size OF a
pea. It was expected that the three
daughters will also die and Green and his
son may, but there are more favorable in
dications in their cases. They cured the
pork in the fall, ate all Of the hog but this
ham, and ate 1t cooked.

FracaS Between Two Macon, NO., Editors
-One Badly Injured.
Macon, Mo-, April 14.-Alexander Hud.
son, editor of the Macon Times, at noon yes
terday attacked DIR. T. J. Norris, an edi-
torial writer on the Macon Democrat, and
struck him over the head numbero of times
with a heavy IRON, leather-covered cane,
producing injuries that are very serious,
stepping from doorway when Norris was
passing and without word commencing
the assault. Norris had the reputation Of
being fighter, but was taken at dlsad-
vantage and given no chance to reach his
assailant. When the Times editor was
taken away by the bystanders Norris i'm
medately went to his Office and secured
his revolver, but it was taken away by
friends. An examination showed FIVE
large scalp wounds and severe concus-
sion, but no fracture. There had been a
long standing difference between the men
caused by a newspaper war. Recently
Hudson and an elnploye Of his Office sued the
editor and proprietor OF the Democrat for
lioel, asking $4,000 damages. Hudson is
thirty years old and Norris fifty. Two
warrants against Hudson for deadly as
sault were served and $500 bonds accepted.
The three attending physicians pronounce
Norris condition critical. Many think if
he RECEIVERS he will shoot Hudson ON sight.

Dressed Beef Grievances.

CHICAGO, April 13.-It is believed that
Bhe leading dressed beef shippers Of this
city are preparing suits in the United
States courts against the various roads
running east except the Chicago u Grand
Trunk for violation Of the Interstate Com
merce law, and will ask the court to COM
pei the roads to refund to shippers the ex-
cess in rates over those of the Chicago &
Grand Trunk. The latter, by agreement
with the other Eastern lines, is now al
lowed to make rate OF so cents per 100
pounds on dressed beef, Chicago to Boston,
against 10 cents by all other roads, and S.
cents to New York, against 65 cents by the
other roads. This difference of 90 cents in
Boston rates and 10 cents in New York
rates the shippers claim is the rankest
kind Of discrimination and virtually pool
ing agreement tn eaualize or divide the
traffic.

HEAVY FAILURE.
The American Exchange in Europe Sus-
uends With HEAVY Liabilities.

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE suspension Of
the American Exchange in Europe limited,
was reported yesterday and William c.
Boone, treasurer Of the company, was ap-
pointed receiver by Judge Lacombe, of the
United State Circuit Court, on the applica-
tion of Sullivan & Cromwell, attorneys for
the company. Mr. Cromwell said the liza
bilities were about A,0O0,000. The concern
had had no credit rating at Bradstreet's
for year past. The company was formed
in 1880 under the English limited liability
law with an authorized capital of IS, ,0O0, 600,
OF which $78O,000 was paid in, and sue
ceeded to the business of II. F. Gillig &
Co., which had been established in 1873,
paying $500, 900 in stock for the purchase,
Henry F. Glllig remained as vice president
and manager; Hon. Joseph B. Hawley be.
ing the president. Mr.. Gillig stated to
Bradstreet's April last: s'The annual state
ment of the company will soon be ready
and will prove satisfactory to our friends,
though we do not pay any dividend on the
business of 1887, as we used the money to
develop the business, to which we are now
expecting some important additions
through connection with the American
Express Company
henry +. Gilllg, manager of the concern,
could not be found at his usual haunts last
night and neither could his lawyer.
George II. Sullivan, one of the counsel
who applied for Receiver Boon's appoint
ment, said that he was almost totally igno-
rant of the cause of the collapse, but he
did doubt the rumor that the liabilities of
the corporation were in the neighborhood
of 100000. In any event they were ap-
parent and not real. He had heard that
the exchange did large business in let
ters Of credit, but he was not sufficiently
we'll informed of the affairs of the concern
to state what the total assets would be or
whether the failure would involve any of
the exchange correspondents in other Cit
les. The main Office was in London and
the New York Office was only branch.
The American Exchange in Paris was a
different organization, though. Mr.. Gillig
managed that and the American Exchange
in Europe Qimited).
At the Office of the exchange, 1874 Broad
way, business was going on as usual, but a
sign, 'To Rent" was conspicuously posted
in one of the windows and near by was q
notice that the exchange would vacate
May 1.
A dispatch from London says: A pro-
visional manager has been appointed to
conduct the business Of the American Ex-
change in Europe pending decision upon
a petition for the liquidation Of the concern.

Kansas County Seats.

TOPEKA, Kan, April 13.-Mandamus pro
ceedings were Degun in the Supreme Court
yesterday by the Attorney General to COM
pei the officers of Ellsworth County to re-
move their offices now located in the first
addition of Ellsworth to the city proper. 1t
is alleged that no election has ever been
held to locate permanent county seat
since Ellsworth County was organized in
1861, and that Governor Crawford at that
time named the town of Ellsworth as the
temporary county seat.
Similar proceedings have also been in
stituted against the commissioners of Has
kell County to compel them to Immediately
convene and make the formal order calling
an election to vote upon u proposition to
bond the county for s4S, 600 in aid of the D.
C., N. & T. railway. The writ is return
able May 8.
