MYSTERIOUS DROWNING AFFAIR.
Little Joseph Fannan Found
Dead in 'Cistern
At the Mineral Wool Plant-He Was Last
Seen Alive About 1 O'clock Thurnday
Acknowledgements to Have Stun b,ed
I'm While Running, But the Whole
Affair Is Shrouded In Mystery.

The sad drowning, in cistern ut the
Mineral Wool Company's plant, of little
Joseph Fannan, the s,year. old child Of
e. Fannan, which occurred Thursday
evening, is the second calamity which
has visited that household within the
past few weeks, as the father of the
family, f. Fannan. lost his arm. while
coupling an engine to tender in the
Mschlne Works yard in February.
Inc circumstances surrounding the
drowning of little Joe are peculiarly dis
tressing and to certain ez tent inexpli.
cable.
1t seems that on Thursday afternoon
about one o'clock, Joe, in company with
Charlie Headen, went to the Mineral
Wool Company's plant, where the latter
was employed to sew up the sacks after
the WOOL had been packed. After as
sisting Headen for some time Joe bade
him good bye, and said he was poipg &,
return home on one of Sands transfar
wagons.
This was the last seen of the bow
awe 80 far as learned at present On
his failure to return to his homo. No.
SOC Fourth avenue n. e., for supper that
evening his parents informed the
authorities. Diligent search was made
by the police and friends Of the family
all Of Thursday night and about
o'clock yesterday afternoon one of the
searchers, boy named Robert Rooper.
discovered boys hat floating upon the
water In the cistern which supplies the
engines of the Mineral Wool Com pany.
The employees OF the works were
called atonce. With hooks they dragged
the body OF the child to the surface.
Careful inquiry at the works payo no
clue as to the cause of the accident.
Mono OF tho employees saw the boy after
he left the room, where he had been
helping Headen, nor did they hear any
cutlery. The face and head of tho bow
bear no bruises, so it seems improbable
that he was stunned when falling iuso
the cistern, which contains about ten
feet Of water.
The most probable theory as to the
cause OF the fatality is that in his haste
to reach the transfer wagon he did not
see the cistern, which had been care
lessly left open. George Houston, who
had been at the plant, stated that he
saw the door open about the time the
boy was known to have disappeared.
An inquest was deemed unnecessary
and the body was turned over to Oakley
IL Wooiwlne, the undertakera 1t
seems, In view Of the condition OF the
oody' which was entirely free from
bruises, and the nearness of the en-
ployes OF the mill to the cistern when
the accident occurred that careful
public investigation of the facts in the
case should be made.
The time and place of burial will not
BIO decided on until Northern friends,
who have been notified. can be heard
from.
