HARTFORD, Conn.,, July 30.-Ray- mond, 9; Leroy, 7, and Freddie, 4, the children of James w. Ganion, a loco- motive engineer on the New York, New Haven X Hartford railroad, who have been missing since Thursday evening, when they went to bathe in the Connecticut river, were found dead at o'clock yesterday morning in the closet of freight caboose standing on 300 feet from their home.
 After numerous searches for two days, Chief of Police Bill ordered the freight cars and railroad property searched and the policemen were drawn to the caboose yesterday morn ing by the smell of decomposing flesh. In the trainmen's closet, shut by a spring lock, they found the three bodies badly decomposed.

The caboose was newly painted and the children went in to play, pack of cards being found in the closet. It is supposed they closed the door and could not open it, and soon snffocated in the stifiing, hot air of the narrow in- closure.
