BEElIE WHITES body FOUND.
Clothing Became %Entangled in a Piece
of Timber in the River at
National Bridge.

The dead body of q woman was OBJ.
served in the Laekawanna river, under
the bridge near the National breaker
Of William Cornell e. Co., yesterday
morning at z o'clock.
A graphing iron attached to a long
rope was ~entanglsd in the dress of the
corpse after which the rops was fast
ened to the underworld of the bridge to
prevent the remains from floating down
the stream. In this manner the body
was left until the arrival of Coroner
Kelly. When he reached the place he
ordered that the body be removed from
the water, but there were nc friends of
the deal there to undertake the task.
A bystsnder. Martin Philbin, OF
Minooks. volunteered to 60 into the
river, which was very high. A long
rope was fastened to the slespers on
top of the bridge and he slid down on
it to the river forty feet below. He
then tied the rope around the body and
1t was drawn up and removed to a
spot near the weigh Office Of the Ma
tional collisry.
The coroner had by this time en-
paneled a jury, consisting Of Thomas
j. Flannsry, Michael T. Howley, Mar
tin Philbin, James G. BeaInish. Patrick
F. O'Hara, and 9. ]. Evans. The re-
mains were viewed, and w. D. Ken
nedy was sworn as the frat witness.
His testimony was to the effect that
the body was that Of Miss Bsezie A
White, the domestic who lived with
him up to the night Of March II at
11l7 Washington avenue.
1t will be remembered that the pa
pers at that time contained an account
Of the disappearance of Miss White
and the fact that she left a note stating
that they could look for her body in
the Lackawanns river.
Mr.. Kennedy identified the remains
as those Of Beetle White. from the
plush sRcqus. wine colored dress, gait
ers, and upper false teeth. The corpse
was 30 badly decomposed that her fsa-
lures were unacceptable.
Coroner Kelly notified Undertaken
Owen Cusiek and the body was con-
vsyed to his establishment late in the
afternoon. Miss White is supposed to
have been demented when she left
Kennedy's residence on March II. The
river in the vicinity Of Providence was
immediately dragged, but n trace of
her could be found.
The jury last night returned q YER
dict to the effect that Miss White
drowned herself while suffering FIR IN
a tit OF temporary insanity.
