why it failed, and an attempt to prove
that the railroad companies were re-

ANOTHER MYSTERY OF THE RIVER.
A fisherman Finds the Body of ar
Unknown Man.
Supposed to be One Robert Swan
From a Bank Check Found
in His Pocket.

There is river mystery to be solved,
but who can do it?
Yesterday the body of man supposed
to be one Robert Swan was found float
ing in the river about three miles south
of the city on the Yolo side. Its appear
ance indicates that it had been in the
water about three weeks. The body was
found by fisherman named Johnson.
Apparently the deceased was 60 or IS
years of age, as his hair and beard were
quite gray, though he had full set OF
teeth. He was five feet ten inches in
hight. He wore a suit Of gray under
wear. blue jumper, canvas coat, and
dark trousers. A pair of new laced shoes
completed his costume.
1t looks as if it were a case of suicide.
IF one of murder. it is quite evident rob-
berry was not the motive for the crime, as
the drowned man had considerable money
on his person.
In his pockets was found S25 in gold, a
quarter in silver, and a draft for $500.
The latter was issued by the banking
house Of James H. Goodman q Co. OF
Napa, and is dated February %, 1895. 1t
is regular bank check, signed by j. c..
Noyes. Assistant Cashier, and reads:
PAY to Robert Swan, or order, the
sum of $780,"
The body was removed to the under
taking rooms of George II. Clark of this
city. Thus far nobody here has been
able to identify it, but no doubt someone
in Napa can tell who was the unfortunate
man.
