day has been the dreariest for long
time in this old town. Thousands of
strangers have thronged the streets all

of Christmas night. Nothing has yet
been learned regarding The nature of
the movements of the shoe firms. al
though in one or two instances steps
have already been taken toward re-
building or continuing business tenn
pOrariy. The safes of Sumner Bross
Davis Bros. and Munroe Bros. were
taken from the ruins to-day and their
contents found to be unhurt. There
are some doubts about Cropley Bros.
and Munroe Bros. rebuilding, as most
of their business has been done in Wolf
bOro, n. H., the past five years. 1t is
reported that N. Allen Lindsey, pro-
prietor of the Marblebead Messenger,
will erect large brick building. The
shoe factories now left in the city en-
ploy from 1000 to 1000 men. while the
number of employees thrown out of work
by the fire will be about 1,S00. The ca
pacity of the factories burned was $50
cases per day when running on full
time, which would make pay roll of
about S2l, 900 week. Such was Marble
heads business before the fire. To-day,
with a population of 1880. only about
one-siXth can find employment. Great

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 27.-The re-
mains of the man found in FairmOunt
park yesterday still lie unidentified at
the morgue in this city. Coroner's Ply
sician Formal held an inquest this aft
ernoon. He gives it as his opinion that
the murder was committed on Christ
mas night, only few hours previous to
the discovery of the cut-up body in the
section of water pipe. The appearance
of the parts where the legs were sew
cred from the body, says the physician,
Indicates that who ever did the
job had some experience at that
sort of work. The flesh was cieanly
cut and The saw used in saving the
bones was fine one, evidently meat
saw. The inquest developed the fact
that the murdered man was not addict
ed to the use of alcoholic liquors. Chief
of Detectives Wood stated tonight that
he is absolutely at sea in regard to the
finding of the perpetrators of the crime.
The face of the dead man was viewed
by hundreds of people to-day. but the
corpse remains unrecogniZed. The body
Is undoubtedly that of German. aged
from thirty to thirty-five years. dark
brown hair, cut rather short. and light
brown mOustache. Chief Woods
theory is that the man was killed
during fight in house not
great distance from where the
remains were found, the cutting in half
of the body being done in order to more
conveniently carry it 10 the lonely spot
in the park. The condition of the mus
cles indicated tHat the man struggled
terribly before he was finally Overpow-
cred and killed by blow on the back
of the head. which was dealt with sutii-
cient force to crush in the skull. Until
the body is recognized. the chief says it
will be almost impossible to gain clue.
The entire detective force OF the city is
now at work on the case.

None of them had any fault to find tn

dict that Bronson came to his death by

also recommended that local inspectors
