The DEAD BoDY FOUND SEAa -sELrsvILLE.-on
| ~ A
we believed TO be reliable ar-sority, that man
was run over by the train of carr from Baltimore
in the neighborhood Of Heltsyiils on Friday night
Since that time have conversed with the officer
of the railroad company who removed the body
from under the cow-catcher, and he informed US
that the head was off and could not be found, and
that one of the arms was broken. The corpse was
cold and wet, as though it had been exposed to the
rain. The deceased was formerly employed at the
mines on the line of the railroad. II is supposed
that he murdered, and the body subsequently
placed the track for the purpose of being crushed
that by this the belief might prevail that
he was thus killed. Our informant is of the opin
ion that no inquest was held over Che body.
The BaIpGE over the Tiber, New Jersey avenue
near the railroad station, completed yester-
day 1t is twenty-four feet in breadth and one
hundred and eighty in length, and bears evidence
OF great strength. 1t constructed under the
superintendent of MIR. Richard Fl. Stewart, by
direction of the Commissioner Of Public Buildings
