MT Charles Jane, the light house keeper at Old Field Bay, found the body on Monday afternoon about one and a half miles west of the bay oD the Sound shore.

Saved by the Gendarmes From Be-
 Ing Murdered by the Liege Rioters.
 BRUSSELS, March 19.-The rioting at Liege yesterday on the occasion of the Commune celebration was more serious than at first re- ported. A gang of Socialists, followed by g constantly increasing mob of thieves and vagabonds, marched in an irregular process sion through the principal streets and kept the city in state of terror for three hours They robbed many of the cafes and becoming infuriated with the liquor thus obtained they wrecked the places, leaving costly wines flowing into the gutters They then marched to the Rue Leopold and sacked all the shops whose owners had not taken the alarm and put up their shutters. The police were isolat- ed and could do no effective work against the mob. Finally a force of gendarmes was assembled ard made an eff fective charge in close order upon the riot CTS. Many of the latter were wounded and several hundred were arrested. The rioting lasted from early in the afternoon until long after dark.
 During the riot Lizst, the composer, was dining with the burgomaster when a mob burst into the hotel and threatened to mur- der them The gendarmes arrived in time to protect them from further harm.
