he IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN DRowNED-1NvEs-
T1dATI0N BY THE POLICE.
Detective Block was yesterday detailed by Major
Dye. superintendent OF police, to investigate the
reported disappearance Of young Frawley, of 326 G
street southwest, who took passage on the steamer
Lady OF the Lake last Monday night, and who was
missed before the boat landed at Norfolk This
morning Mr.. Block reported to Major DYE that
there was every probability that the young man
fell overheard and was drowned. Mr.. Block as
certained that shortly before the Lady OF the Lake
and another young man, came on board the boat
with % cent tickets or the lower deck) that they
had dog with them; that they were under the
influence OF liquor and patrOnZed the bar; and
that during the trip Frawley al tempted to go into
the dining-room, but was elected by Richard
johnson, the steward, and accidentally fell against
glass door, breaking it; that Capt. Barker came
to him to ask him about breaking the glass; but he
was then too drunk to give any explanation. It
was then found that Frawley had but two dollars
mate, James Jones, was in the pflot-house when
the boat was passing Hollister's-over 20 miles
down the rfverabout 10 80 O'Clock p m. and that
1e saw Frawley endeavoring to get UP to the spar
deck, and that was the last seen OF him; that there
were but two landings made-Piney Point and Oh
Polnt-and Mr. Jones IS certain that FrawIey did
not pass ashore at either place Frawiey'S friends
ABOUT II O'Clock p. m., reported his disappearance
TO Capt Barker, and a search was made for him,
when Henry Hudson, deck hand, found his hat
narrow, and it is supposed that by the motion Of
the boat he lost his balance and fell overheard.
IL was at first supposed that Frawley had, after
Cne breaking OF the glass, attempted to secrete
himself to keep from being called on Capt Davis,
morning he saw body af1oat near Colonial Beach,
but being with q tow he could not stop. 1t is
thought that this Is the body OF Frawley.
