account of Mrs. Interliner being unable to
attend. She was hysterical last night and
Justice Cardin postponed the case until
Thursday evening. The child's condition is
slightly improved, but owing to her can

the result is still doubtful. Mrs Interliner
is evidently much distressed over the out
come Of the affair. 1t seems that her daugh-
ter was playing with that Of Mrs. Vests.
The children are of about the same age. 10
years. They were making houses of sand
and got into a quarrel, during which Mrs.
Vests child attacked the other. In an out
burst of temper Mrs Interliner, it is alleged,
caught and held the West girl while the
other child struck her. Mrs. Interliner then
swung the West girl from side to side and
finally threw her to the ground. Other chill
dren picked her up and assisted her home
The excitement and tossing so aggravated
the cancerous trouble of the West girl that
she was seized with violent and continual
vomiting and she has since been confined to

Henry Meyer, a laborer residing at
421 Cleveland avenue, is at the CITY
hospital suffering from the effects OF
blood poisoning, as a result OF which
ne will have to undergo the amputation
of his right hand. On the evening of
Dec. 20 Meyer went to the house Of
friend named Rosch, living in the
neighborhood, and there met several
congenial spirits who had also assem-
bled to pass a social evening Cards
were suggested as an innocent diver
sion, and four-handed game of cincn
was soon in progress. In the course Of
the evening it is said that liquor was
quite freely INDUCED in. However that
may be, free-for-all fight came off
about 10 o'clock, during which some
one, said to have been a strange Wis
itor at the house, bit Meyer on the
hand. Nothing was thought Of the
wound at the time, but about three
days later Meyer began to feel pains
in his hand, and the member swelled
to about twice it's normal size. On
Jan. he became alarmed over his
condition, and applied for admission
to the hospital, where he was given
the best Of treatment, but the case had
been neglected too long, and Dr.

would undoubtedly become necessary
