A BODY IN A TRUNK.

it Was Bought at a Sale of Unclaimed
Freight In Chicago.

CHICAGO, March 28.—A trunk contain-
ing the decompsed body of a man was
found in a box among a. lot of unclaimed
freight by an Austin (Ills.) man. The

box was addressed to G. M. Morgan, 166
Jefferson court, Chicago.

Philip Greiss and Carl Hofi', both of
Austin, came into the city and bought a
lot of unclaimed freight which was stored
in the warehouse of Wakem & McLaugh-
lin on South Water street. The, goods
were delivered at the house of H05, who
is a contractor. Hoff ordered two of the
employees to open the boxes. The first one
they opened contained a new trunk.
Around it was packed sawdust. The trunk
was opened, and inside was found 3 her-
metically sealed zinc case made to fit the
trunk. Inside this was the body of a man
badly decomposed. It had first been dou-
bled up and wrapped with a small rope
and then tightly packed in chloride of
lime. The police were notified. and a pa-
trol wagon took the body to the county
morgue.

The police are puzzled. The name G.
M. Morgan does not appear in the Chi-
cago Directory.

There is no such address in Chicago as
166 Jefferson court.

J. Wallace Wakem of Wakem & Mc-
Laughlin said that the box was stored
with them by the Michigan Central rail-
road a year ago.

WHIPPBD BY WOMEN.

\Villey \Vas. Tied In Front of the- City
' Hall and Thrashed.
BERTRAND, Neb., March .28.—-—Excite-

ment ran high here on account of the

whipping of H. H. Willey. a former jus-
tice Of the peace and a man with a. large
family, who on Wednesday, it is charged.
made improper proposals to the 7-year-old
daughter of A. M. Hill of Bertrand. Wil-
ley was ordered to leave town, and while
preparing to do so was arrested by Con-
stable Clark Clayton on a warrant SWOI'D
out by the girl’s mother. A number of
women, led by the mother of the girl,
covered the prisoner with revolvers, and,
after tying his hands and placing a strap
about his neck, marched him out in front

of (the cityhall. There three women at a

time thrashed him with black snake whips

until he was dripping with blood. Con—
stable Sandstrom ordered them to stop.

The Whipping took place in full view of

the prisoner’s home, and while he received

little pity public sympathy was touched
by the cries of his children and wife. He
left for Iowa.

 

A Physician llIulcted.

LONDON. March 28. —In the libel suit
brought by Mrs. Arthur Kitson, charging
slander, against Dr. William Playfair a
verdict was rendered today in favor of the
plaintifi' and awarding her £12,000 (860,-
000) damages. Great interest has been felt
in the case, as it involved the right of an
attending physician to disclose any secret
revealed in professional confidence.

A Small Vessel Lost.

COLD SPRING HARBOR, N. Y., March 28.

FOREIGN TRADE HOPEFUL.

lmerican Iron For Shipment Abroad.
Enormous Decrease In— Sales of
Wool—Railroad Stock Trading
Dull—Failures of the \Veek.

NEW YORK, March 28. —R. G. Dun 82
Co. ’s weekly review of trade says: “

No important change has occurred in
the general condition of business during
the week, and, if trades in some respects
look worse, in other respects they look bet-
ter. Some failures of magnitude have oc-
curred, which have caused much appre-
hension and unwillingness to lend among
bankers, and there have been somewhat
less favorable features in ‘ the dry goods
market, but in iron and ,steel conditions
are slightly and in boots and shoes consid-
erably more hopeful. The labor controver-
iies, mainly in the clothing trade, still
cause much interruption of that business.
Foreign trade is a little more satisfactory,
exports from New York for three weeks
showing an increase over last year of 6 per
cent, while imports have shown nearly the
same rate of decrease, and there are not
wanting signs that the domestic markets
have been somewhat overloaded with
many kinds of foreign goods. In general
the course of domestic prices tends to fa-
vor the marketing of staples abroad.

Wheat has not materially changed, nor
has corn, and cotton has declined 23. six-
teenth. Receipts of wheat at Western ports
continue surprisingly large for a most un-
favorable season and make it hard to be-

estimates represent it, for such receipts
were during the past week 2,901,724
bushels against 1,849, 432 last year, and
for four weeks of March have been 11, 884,~
205 bushels against 7,474,361 last year.
There has been aslight increase in At‘
lantic exports this week. but in four weeks
exports, flour included, were 5,488,119
bushels against 6,488,109 last"year. Cot-
‘ ton had a lively rise with the covering of
short sellers. but began to decline again a
Week ago and has been lagging ever since.
The receipts from plantations continue
§ quite as large as in the same Weeks of the
' last short crop year, and stocks in sight,
1 with the quantities known to be held by
1 European and American mills, make up
i an ample supply for the rest Of the crop
, year. In the goods market the latest in-
; dications do not warrant expectations that
l the mills will continue full production
throughout the season.
Statement of Output.

A heavy auction salt-u of ginghams last
week brought out unexpectedly large buy-
ing, but the prices realized were neverthe-
less remarkably low. While not many of
the great mills have entirely stopped the
continued accumulation of goods has led
to considerable curtailment of output,
even by the mills which continue in Oper-
ation. The demand for women’s dress
goods is the best feature of the woolens
market, .~ nd there is about as much diffi-
culty as at any time in men’s wear do
partments, the operations of clothlers be«
ing hindered not only by the prevalent
strikes, but by slackness of immediate de-
mand. The sales of wool have fallen to
less than half an ordinary week’s full con-
sumption, amounting last week to only
2,926,750 pounds at the chief markets,
about half foreign, and in four weeks to
12,824,150 pounds, of which 6,596,800
were foreign, against 18,946,200, last year
and 21,984,576 pounds in the same weeks
of 1892, only 7,029,060 then being foreign.
A striking feature this week has been a
sale of 850,000 pounds of American wool
for shipment to England. .

The iron and steel markets have dis-
closed a. similar feature, for a little Ala-
bama pig has been sold for export by the
Sloss company, though few imagine that
much business Of that sort is possible.
The combination of lake ore producers
has at last announced its prices for the
ccming season: $4 for first class bessemer,
$3.40 to 83.75 for Mesabi and $3 for non-
bessemer ores, and it is calculated that
with coke at $2 per ton, bessemer pig can
be produced at about $12.25 at Pittsburg,
which is now the current price there. But
the slow marketing of finished products is
still the main trouble. There has been a.
little more activity this week, and the
Carnegie works have sold 10,000 steel rails
to Japan, thus scoring a noteworthy suc-
cess, but in the main the market is about
as inactive and insufficient as it has been.
The shipments of boots and shoes from
the east have been in four weeks of March
268,899 cases against 321,268 last year and
325,983 in the same weeks of 1893, but
there has been marked increase in new
business, as was noticed a week ago. and
the works in some departments are now
well provided with orders for the full
season. The demand is more largely from
the south than from the west, and is still
in large measure for the low priced goods.

Railroad Stocks, Etc.

There has been no trading worth the
name in railroad stocks during the past
week. and scarcely any in the industrials,
so that fluctuations in price are scarcely
worth noting. Foreign selling of stocks
has not been very large, but it is noted
that the sales of excellent American bonds,
even those Of the best roads, have been un-
usually large. The earnings of the rail-
roads have been ratherless promising than
in previous months, averaging only 3.2
per cent better than last year for the
month of March thus far. and 10.2 percent
smaller than in the some weeks of 1893,
and the tonnage from Chicago, which has
so long been much in excess of previous
years, has now fallen short of the move-
ment in 1893. Something is expected in
Stock Exchange circles from important ne-
gotiations which Mr. Morgan is endeavor-
ing to make abroad. But on the whole lit-
tle is done at present, and little expected
for some time to come, in the security
market.

The returns of failures are somewhat
disappointing. Several of magnitude were
mentioned a Week ago, and they have
swelled the aggregate of defaulted liabili-
ties for three Weeks of March to $12,383,-
614 against $11,271,121 last year and 810,-
061,991 in 1894. The manufacturing li-
abilities were 85,590,673 against $6,411,-
342 last year, and $4,698,118 in 1894, While
trading were $6,498,341 against $4,824,779
last year and 84, 225,082 in 1894. A heavy
failure in Texas will also swell the aggre-
gate of returns for the past week, which
includes 259 in the United States against
234 last year, and 39 in Canada against 48
last year.

PERSONALS FROM EUROPE.

The dress to be worn by the empress
of Russia at the coronation ceremonies
next year has just been ordered in
Paris. It will be decorated with pearls
and gold, and will cost $200,000.

The British ambassador at Paris re-
ceives $45,000 salary and $100,000 more
for expenses; all this in a. year, making
nearly three times the salary of the
president of .the United States.

Senor Canovas, one of the most prom- ’

inent figures in the Spanish cortez, is
reputed to be the homeliest man in
Spain, and to have for a wife the most
beautiful woman in that country.

Kosciuszko’s heart has been removed
from the Morosini chapel, near the Lake
of Lugano, where it was kept, and put
in a museum of Polish historical curi-
osities in the castle of Bapperschwyl,
near St. Gallen, Switzerland.

Count Douglas, of the grand duchy of
Baden, the descendant of a Scottish sol-
dier ennobled in the last century, is
staying at the Alexandria hotel, Lon~
don. The count, who is one of the,
richest noblemen in Germany, is also
probably one of the tallest, his height
being seven feet two inches.

King Bomba’s executioner has just
died. He was a. Sicilian named Gaetano
Impallizieri, who was condemned to
death for a murder, but pardoned on
agreeing to become executioner. When
Garibaldi entered Naples he had to
flee to avoid lynching, and had lived
ever since on a small island near Pal-
ermo.

Bismarck is said to be getting rather
feeble. Just before his last birthday
his health seemed visibly better, but
the extensive and protracted celebra-
tion of that event, involving as it did
the reception of delegations of visitors
who came and went for several month 5,
weakened his vitality. He is now able
to walk but little and he has to be
helped in and out of his carriage.

 

 

INTERESTING FOREIGN SCRAPS.

London .Truth says that the report
that the Mikado of Japan is going to
England next summer is, sheer inven-
tion.

American travelers in Europe, ‘during.’

the three summer months, spend about
$100,000,000. This expense must be met
by the exportation of gold.

In Vienna a both may be had for three
cents, including soap and towels; in
Berlin the cost is from two and a half
to six cents; in London a cold bath costs
two cents and a warm bath four, while
in Paris the cheapest bath costs eight
cents.

By some official’s blunder a number
of Dutch five-cent postage stamps were
recently printed yellow instead of. blue.
The mistake was discovered before the
stamps were issued, but ‘ not before
some of the sheets had been stolen by
workmen and sold at high prices to
stamp dealers.

A life-sized lithograph of Queen Vic-
toria, made by Lemercier and Furst
from a single stone for the London ex-
hibition of 1851, will be shown at the
lithographic exhibition in Paris. Four
impressions only were taken, as tin.

scent so vile as to be comparable to
nothing but rotten carrion. -

The orchids are true parasites,‘grow—
ing on other plants and dr ing their
sustenance from them and f’ mthe air.

In Syria, near Damascus, there is said
to grow a hummingbird plant, the
flower of which bears a close resem~
blance to the humming bird. The
breast is red, the wings are a dark
green, the back yellow, the head and'
tail a bluish black. ' .
