Foul PlaV.

INDIANAPOLIS, July 24,-The report is
current, but not fully authenticated, that
early this morning the bodies of three
men, one colored and two white, were
found near Whiting Station, Lake county.
Who they are. where they came
from, or how they came there,
is unknown to anyone. The most
plausible theory is that they were stock.
men passing through with load of live
stock, and perhaps tramps on the train
committed the deed and threw the
bodies off in order to allay suspicion.
The bodies were found close together,
between the tracks of the Baltimore and
Ohio and Lake Shore railways.
