TWO WOMEN POISONED
Through Eating Presumably
Tainted Corned Beef.

Mrs. Heidenreich. matron of the
union depot, is lying very i'll at her res
idence, 396 jackson street, having been
poisoned by eating corned beef pur-
chased at neighboring butcher shop.
Mrs. Mclaughlin, who resides with
Mrs. Heidenreich and acts as house
keeper in her absence from home, is
also ill from the same cause. both ladies
being confined to their beds. The meat
which caused the trouble was purchased
at the store mentioned Saturday,
portion of it being eaten Sunday
and producing slight symptoms OF poi
soning, though these were not at
tributed to the rightcause until hearty
meal of the meat was partakensof yes
terday, after which both the ladies were
taken ill as stated, with symptoms OF
poisoning. When the symptoms be-
came alarming DR.. w. s. Briggs was
sent for, and by hard work succeeded in
saving the lives of both. The corned
beef is believed to have been made
from tainted meat, and samples have
been retained by DR.. Briggs fol- analy-
sis. Late last evening the sufferers
were doing well. and it is hoped that all
danger OF a fatality resulting is passed.
1t appears that only the fatty portions
Of the meat were poisonous, as the en-
tire family partook of the dish and only
those who ate the fat were affected.
