The Fate of . mtsstne Boy,


 The Fate Of 8 Missing Boy.
 MEpwAY, March 23.-Search had been made in every possible place for the young Reagan boy who mysteriously disappeared the other night, when yesterday John Carr, 8 half wit ted lad in whose company Reagan was last seen, confessed that he was drowned He said that they were both floating upon cakes of ice in the river when Reagan slipped of. He shouted loudly for help, but Carr could do nothing for him, and when he sank the last time ran home too frightened to tell the story. Carr's story was doubted, as two clairvoyants had said that the boy was not drowned but wandering in the woods. The river has been dragged for half a mile for the body, but in vain. Search is being made be- low the dam and the river is being drawn off. Late this afternoon Carr contradicted his story and said he told it simply to see the men work. Unless the body is found this evening Carr will be arrested.
 The mills were stopped. and the river drawn of to-day, but no body was found. The opinion prevails that the boy has been otherwise disposed of. The woods in the vicinity will be thoroughly searched to- morrow.
