CHASTITY FIND In A BOX.
A MANS CORPSE CUT TO PIECES
AND SHIPPED.

The horrible Stencil Arising From the
Dscomposing Flesh Leads to the
Discovery in Freight Depot at
Quincy-Murder or the Work Of
Medical Students.
81. LoUIs. Dec. 19.-The CHASTITY work Of
the St Louis murderer, or a dissecting
student, was a terrible revelation this morh-
Ing at the baggage depot at Quincy, Ill. A
white man was chopped to pieces and
Jammed into an old soap box. This recep-
tacle had been shipped from the union de-
pot In ST. Louis as baggage. Il was only
about three feet in length and about one
foot in depth. When IL reached Quincy,
Baggageman W. E. Kendall detected foul
odor coming from the box. but thought it
contained some game that had spoiled.
No one called for the box and Sunday
morning the stencil became so strong that
few people dared venture near it. Finally
MIR. Kendall opened the box and the dis
covery was made as above stated. At the
union depot here 1t is stated that two young
men dressed In the hight Of style checked
the box to Quincy aud a similar one to a
small town on the Missouri Pacific railway.
The railroad people think it is the work of
two medical students who wanted to take
their subjects homo. Up TO last night the
body at Quincy had not been called for.
The police think it hardly probable that a
student would take such ghastly object
home with him and murder Ia thought to be
at the bottom of 10.

QUINCY, ILL, Dec. 10. IL P. M.-Coroner

woman found in trunk at the depot Sat-
urday. G. N. Frame, a medical student Of
