A RIVER MYSTERY.

Officer Fitzsimmons of the Third Sub b-Prccinct,
Brooklyn was informed yesterday morning that the dead
body Of a man found floating in the river nj the
foot Of Kng-st. The remains grappled and drawn
ashore when the officer found that leather yase was
attached TO the ef by stout cord and il IL were
three six.pOund fatrous. The valise was tied about
the body such position to make it evident that
the work had not been performed by the man himself
but that he had probably been fOully dealt with. In
the pockets OF the pantaoOns were % pistol cartridges
The body was conveyed to the station-houso in Van
Bruntst where it underwent another examination,
which disclosed small round pisOl-shot hole in
the right temple The body had been so long in the
water that the features almost beyond recognition
but the deceased was apparently German, age about
30 lie was about feet inches in hight. His clothing
consisted OF dark purple cloth coat blue vest, white
shirt gray ribbed pants, and heavy calt-Sl1n boots
Coroner Whtehi and the detective sent 10 investigate
the ease concluded that the man committed suicide.
Others who viewed the body inclined to think
that IL had been thrown overheard from some
vessel Tue man had evidently not been robbed, rs one
$40 and one 81 Creenback aud 10 cents IN currency were
found in a vest pocket ~
The body Is now at the Brooklyn Morgue in VIII
