His Identity Established-A Story From
 City Island.
 The body of the man found frozen in the stolen City Island boat proves to be that of Noah Chapman, of Groton. AS before has been stated, he was convict, and discharged from State prison last Saturday.
 Yesterday morning the following dispatch was received at police headquarters here:
 NEW YORK, January 6. Send the bo4y of Noah Chapman to Urbapt Whip pie, East Mystic, Ct. From his brother,
 CAPT. LOREN CHAPMAN. Coroner Bollman telegraphed to Urbant Whipple, of Mystic, that the body was at his disposal, and pending an answer the body remains at the morgue.
 It is feared in New York that others per ished with Chapman, as four strangers ap- peared there last Tuesday evening, and stayed around the place in the evening after the last train out of Barlow had gone. The next morning Francis Bacon, an oysterman, found that his boat, the fLillie B." was gone, and went to New York and notified the police. This leads the City Island people to think that the four strangers who appeared among them last Tuesday night were robbers, and have all met their death in one way or another. All the watermen of City Islane agree that the man who piloted the Lillie B. around that island and through the Sound ir such storm as that of Tuesday night must have been a sailor, and 8 good one, too. No body is missing from the little colony on the island
