Ramsdell, the mother of the unfortunate girl, went to a neighbor's on an errand, leaving the daughter at home. Miss Mason, who was about 25 years of age, had long been subject to fits, and her mother did not, on this account, leave her long alone. Mrs. Ramsdell was not gone to exceed an hour when the house was discovered to be on tire. She started home, but, being overcome with fright, fell prostrate in the yard, and could not aid in rescuing her daughter from the building.

By the time the neighbors arrived the flames were uncontrollable and everything was consumed. After several hours' diligent search in the smouldering ruins the charred trunk of the unfortunate victim was xtragged out an unrecognizable mass of flesh and bones. Tile supposition is that the girl had attempted to light a tire when she was seized with a fit, and, falling on the floor, the carpet took lire from the blazing brand, and so communicated it to the building. Coroner O'Neal of this city held an inquest today and the verdict was rendered in accordance with the facts stated. The mother is trantic with grief.

The people who were burglarized on last Sunday night cannot understand how it was Possibie for the thieves to oper.tte in such a bole manner and in such a limited territory unknown to the polire of the beat. In addition to this, several of the parties complain that it is impossible to find a policeman in that locality at a late hour of the night.

INTERNATIONAL ELECTRIC Exmurnos. The General Commiasion of the International Electric Exhibition to be held in Vieona have issued a circular stating that the electric exhibition proposed to De bele in 18 st! and postponed on account of a similar exhibition taking plaee in Munich will be carried out in 1883. and will open Aug. I and close Oct. 31.

The circular says: The rapid progress of electro-technic not only justifies the short intervals in which tile special electric exhibitions are toilowing each other. but demands expressly their frequent repetitions in order to popularize the electric sclences and to introduce their application into intone lire. We consider our metropolis a imitable place for the reception of such nations as are contending in friendly rivalry tor the aacimilency in the held ot tochnical and scientiticul discovery, and hope this contest may further many important questions to their heal monition.

INDIANAPOLIS, April D.Special. The visiting Baltimoreans left Indianapolis for Peoria at noon, snubbing the Board of Trade most coolly. It bad been arranged that they should make a call on 'Change during the grain call, and somewhat elaborate arrangements had been made for their reception, the Baltimore market being prominently posted for their edification. But they came not and after waiting some time for their appearance a had been sent to learn the cause of the delay. reported that they had left for Peoria.

This slight was the more discourteous from the tact that they had beeu treated with the utmost courtesy. and very pronounced efforts had been made for their entertainment. The Washington Club, Gov. Porter, ex-Senator McDonald, Mayor Grubbs, and other prominent citizens did what they could to make the visit pleasant, but the visitors departed without making the slightest explanation. In their anxiety to inspect the manufacturing interests of the city, it may be.said care was taken not to overlook the breweries.

Mr. Storck, of the law firm of Storck Shuman, against whom at Judgment for elle was recovered before Justice Meech Monday. and who was said to have collected money for the Chicago Jewelry Company and garnisheed it in the interest of another client, gave his side of the story yesterday.

He said that some time in October, ISS2, his firm was retained by Caapp Bevies to prosecute its claim against the Chicago Jewelry Manufacturing Company, who owed it about 6,104 of which was for money collected tor its use, but misappropriated. Besides this the company owed about as much now to other parties, and, after looking over the ground, Storck Shuman came to the conclusion that the only way in which the indebtedness could toe discharged was by eetmitting the company to continue its business, but under the safeguard of a new management, and this was done. Mr. Rounsavell took charge of its at-fairs under an agreement by virtue of which be was to apply moneys receive(' tirst to the payment of runnitic expenses and next to the discharge of the debts. NN bile this agreement was in force the lawyers were consulted by all the principal creditors and practically represented them.

and during the same time Mr. hirby turned over to them some small accounts in favor of the company. These they collected in part. and held the net proceeds at the time the differences, out of which the recent troubles grew. arose.

Events made it necessary for theta to close tip the concern under a judgment note which tney held, and to oust Mr. Rousnavell. The money they held would under the agreement have been applied to the payment of the company's debts, and. as they bad throughout represented the creditors, they deetned it their duty to secure the money for them. which they had done by garnishee process, still pending.

Their relations with the company had never been other than as stated. IL G. C. Porcelain. Hotel Majolica, and Decorated Ilare.

Sheriff Ilanehett is taking a deep interest In the fight for better juries in the several courts, and to forward the matter yesterday issued an order which cannot fail to bear good fruit.

Goodwin stated that on March PI live of the leading glucose works ot the country, among which was the Firmeuich, were consolidated under one management, and known as the American Glucose Company, with a nominal eapital of Three of the company's works are located at Buffalo, one at Peoria, and the other at Leavenworth. During the last few months the sugar trade has been unustielly quiet and the manufacturers have aecurnitlitted a large surplus supply, for whieli there is but little demand. Consequently It became neces- sary ta shut down some of the works for the present, and, as the Western works be run at a less expense than those located at Buffalo. the Fermenich was closed. In the manufacture of sugar a large supply of water is required, and the emnpany is obliged to pay for water in Butlaio.

though in Peoria and Leavenworth it costs rothing but the expense of pumping.

PANA, April important suit was decided in court today at Taylorville. in which the prominent business-men and property-owners of this city 'were intensely interested. Last year the city macadamized one of the principal streets through the business portion of the city, and assessed the property adjacent thereto to the extent of one-half the expense. Most of the property-owners paid their assessments, but the others resisted and were sued by the city. The trial came off today as stated, many promintnt citizens having been summoned as witnesses.

The court confirmed the assessment, which will probably settle the matter, as other suits would likely result in the same manner. KNIGHTS OF HONOR.

Several enterprising burglars visited the West Side last Sunday night and operated quite successfully in the vicinity of Blue Island avenue and Fourteenth street. The first place visited iinti the saloon of William Tobin. No. 382 Blue Island avenue. There were at least three of them, and they effected an entrance into the place by breaking out a plate of glass in the front door.

After getting into the saloon they helped themselves to several boxes of cigars. took several drinks of whisky. and then went to the whisky-barrel and drew from it a two-gallon jug full. which they lugge away with them. They got out through the back door.

The proprietor claims that he is out about S75. They next went across the street to the nouon store of S. Levy and were effecting an entrance through tbe front door when the proprietor awoke and scared them off. In about an hour they returned and again attempted to get in, but, finding that the proprietor was ready for them. they beat a hasty retreat.

Mr. Levy went out to look for a policeman, and, after walking soutn for six or eight blocks. be met one. related his story. and requested him to accompany him.

la reply Levy says the policeman yawned and said that it was none Of his business. as it didn't happen on his l'itomISCUOUS CALLS. SOCIAL BAPTISTS. A PLEASANT GATHERING OF MEMBERS OF THE DENOMINATION. The Baptist Social Union was held at tile Palmer House last evening, and the attendance was unusually large.

Drs. Lawrence, Northrup, Lorimer, and others from Chicago. Supper was served at 7 o'clock and lasted un(IL 9. It was followed by vocal and instrumentai selections by Mrs. C.

D. Carrington and daughter and Mr. Swift. The next thing on the proeTam was the reading of a "chapter of Chronicles" by E. Nelson Blake, written by his wife.

The paper was replete with local hits at both the clergy and laity, and was heartily appreciated. The exercises closed with brief addresses by the Rev. Drs. Lawrence and Riddell. The former Introduced the latter as an old classmate.

and spoke in the highest terms of the city, predicting that it was only a matter of time, from the prominence Chicago was assuming in the church, when it would be made the headquarters at the Home Missionary Society. Dr. Riddell followed in a humorous strain, and succeeded in keeping his bearers in convulsions of laughter. He spoke of the great Northwest. of which he made St.

Paul the centre. and said that while we could here tell of the coming of spring by the birds and the grass, at St. Paul they told of its coming by the coming of emigrants. who were swarming there by the thousanos and scattering over the adjacent country to grow up with it. The next meeting of the union will occur in October.
