WOUNDS NAY PROVE FATAL.
Shell Brothers Badly Used in Myste-

Greenville, Nov. 27.-In quarrel
of uncertain origin, at Taylor's Sta
tion this afternoon, in which knife
was freely used, F. A. T. Shell and
J. W.. Shell were badly cut and are
now in local hospital in a serious
condition, as a result of loss of blood
before reaching a physician. The
men are shoe makers, ofAtlanta, Ca,
but appear to have been visiting
their mother in this county.
In statements of a rather inco-
herent nature, made by the men to-
night, it is stated that they were at
the station at Taylor's waiting to
board train No. IL, for Atlanta, and
F. A. She'll was approached by one
Bob Petty, who, it is claimed, pulled
Shells mustache. From this the
quarrel started, it seems, and Shell
was severely cut in the arm by Petty.

who entered into the affray, was
SLIGHTLY cut, but his principal wound
is a blow on the head, near the ear,
which caused hemorrhages. 1t is
stated that he was knocked down by
the blow. The train arrived about
this time and the men were brought
to Greenville.
Officers are now searching for Pet
ty, but he has not yet been located.
The men are both in a serious con-
dition and it is not certain that they
will live.

FRAUDS INVOLVE MILLION.
Operations of Knight, Yancey & Co.
Exceed 81, 100000

Washington, Nov. 24.-Comment-
ing on the arrest yesterday by post
office inspectors Of John w. Knight
of the cotton brokerage firm Of
knight, Yancey & Co., Decatur, Ala,
Postmaster General Hitchcock to-
day gave out statement in which he
says that the operations of this con-
cern through the alleged fraudulent
use Of the mails would doubtless ex-
ceed a million dollars.
The alleged frauds were commit
ted, he says, by. the use of bogus
bills of lading, covering fictitious
shipments. Mr.. Hitchcock asserted
that by making false reports of ship
ments to insurance companies, cer-
tif1cates of insurance were procured
covering both railway and marine
risks. These genuine insurance GER
tificates were accepted as indicating
the honesty of the shipments and the
bills of lading thus accompanied
were negotiated by note brokers, who
procured payment from the foreign
importers in advance of delivery.
The cotton purchased, Mr.. Hitchcock
says, never arrived.
Mr.. Hitchcock declared that the
transactions of knight, Yancey & Co.,
were similar to those of another con-
cern of Corinth, Miss, whose mem
bers were recently indicted on evil
dence procured by. postoff1ce inspect
ors.
The postmaster generals statement
further alleges that the investigation
developed that the two concerns had
an agreement by which they exchang-
ed drafts, each holding power OF at
torney for the other to accept such
drafts, and that together they COM
mitted frauds aggregating between
two and three million dollars"
