Nellie Fish, Sixteen Years Old, of
Cheshire, I'm Jail On An Ugly
Charge.

Nelne Fish, Sixteen hears Old, OF
Cheshire, I'm Jail On An Ugly
Charge.
Nellie Fish, the sixteen year-old Ches-
hire girl who is charged with poisoning
her step-mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Fish, is
still confined in the county Jail. She is
charged with three deliberate attempts to
poison her step-mother by putting
Trough on Rats" in her tea. The girl
says she did not want to kill her mother
and did not know that Rough on Rats
would kill anybody. She is considered as
unsound in mind. Sarah Ellis, postmis-
tress of the place, who lived in the Fish
family, died suddenly two months ago
and it is now thought that the girl may be
held responsible for her death also.

scheme was a man, and he thought in de
priving her of this muscle that sends a

protected the more physically powerful
portion of the human race from unexpected
onslaughts. In leaving out this self pro
tecting element of successful ball throw

does when things need evening up, and &c

cHICAG0s ICE TRUST FOOLED.
An Independent Company Organized
for Business.

CHICAGO, May 19.-[Special Telegram to
THE BEE. THE Chicago ice trusts announce
ment of an eXhorbitant raise in prices for the
coming summer has led to an expected re-
suit. The Consumers Pure Ice company
capital stock S250,000-has organized pur-
chased five acres of ground, has in course of
construction building of immense ground
floor capacity, has ordered machinery to the
value of 800, 600 and fifteen retail ice wagons
and will start in motion a 120-ton artificial ice
machine. The company has for its president
Il. Il. Turner, who has been evolving such a
concern out of the fullneSs of his business
imagination for long time past. Henry III.
Getty is vice president of the concern md
William Mosback secretary and treasurer.
Besides, there appear as stockholders Eldridge
G.. Keith and Edison Keith, w. w. Gibbs, the
Philadelphia Standard millionaire, and j.
Spencer Turner of New York. Such an ag-
gregation of business names looked very
formidable to the old ice trust and terribly in
earnest. So when the charter for the new
corporation was granted by the state depu-
tation from the old trust waited upon Presi-
dent Turner and suggested coalescence with
their trust. The gentlemen were politely in
formed that the directory of the new concern
had ruled against such action and that the
company was on deck for business, inde-
pendent of anything or nyDody. Such a feat
meant wal--an interminable war-to the ice
monopolists. and since that time they have
exercised every influence possible to coax or
compel the new concern into their ranks.

Der of the firm of Orr & Richards, bankers at

it is thought took part of four-once vial of
laudanum at that time. This morning they
called him for breakfast and after pounding
on the door roused him so that he answered
them all right. These were the last words
that were heard until noon, when some one in
passing the room heard him moaning. The
door was forced open and a four-ounce vial
was found empty by him and an ounce vial Of
laudanum untouched. Physicians were called
in and they worked with him until o'clock,
when he died.
The deceased came from Wisconsin to Ne

stions. He was well liked here and his death

Terriblble Punishment of n Womon
Who Infatuated a Married Man.

CAMDEy, N. j., May 19-ISpecial Telegram
to The BEE. Last night Mrs Annie Il. Reed
was lashed till almost dead with blacksnake
whip by Miss Cora Walls, sister of a man
whom Mrs. Reed has entced away from his
wife and children Miss Walls met Mrs. Reed
on the street. The former was followed by
two young men and the latter having the arm
of middle-aged man. AS soon as they met
Miss Walls pulled out whip.
You win rob my brothers. children Of
their bread rr she cried, and the whip fell
upon the woman's shoulders.
'Take that, and that and that" she re
peated, and each time the blacksnake wound
about Mrs. Reeds face and shoulders.
The man whom Mrs. Reed accompanied APP
peared to make no attempt TO shield her. The
little woman was left to fight her own
battle. She didn't fight, but but ran
close behind her She caught Mrs. Reed and
again the merciless lash was wrapped around
her face and shoulders. Mrs. Reeds cries
for help were heard around the neighborhood.
Her clothes were torn from the waist down by
the lash and big welts swelled up on her face
and neck. Several people tried TO interfere,
but as they did so the two men who accom-
panied Miss Walls and VINO had followed her
closely, stepped up. They drew revolvers
and exclaimed:
"a hole will be put through the first man
who interferes This woman deserves all she
gcts.n
Mrs. Reed escaped again and ran. She was
overtaken, and as she scrambled up the steps
Of her house her torn skirts were seized by
Miss Walls, who he'd her and again applied
the lash with vigor. The victim then got
away.
Mrs. Reed is badly hurt and is suffering
great agony, being neither able to lie nor sit
down. Large wets mark her face, shoulders
and other parts of the body. 1t is understood
that no prosecution will be made. Miss
Walls brother disappeared when the horse
whipping began and no one has seen him
since. He has been giving all his money to
Mrs, Reed and his wife and three babies
have been actually starving.
