Victims Body Cut Up Into at Least Four
Parfs-Two Parts Found.
New York. June 2S.-Tha nutiIa ted
trunk of man was found in the East
river of Eleventh street Saturday aft
ernoon by boys who were bathing in the
river. The body was wrapped.tn an oil
cloth and was headless and legless. The
lower extremity Of the trunk was cut
even with the fifth RIB on either side.
sta ting Just below the neck a portion
or the skin over the heart about the size
Of mans hand was missinR. The
physicians expressed the opinion that q
mark OF some sort may have been on
the missing skin. The doctors said the
body had been cut up only a few hours
before 1t was found. The head was
severed on q Ene with the larynx. Close
examination showed stab wounds and
bruises. one OF the latter having the
imprint OF hobnails.
The next.development in the sensation
was the finding yesterday Of the lower
part OF the body in some woods at
One Hundred ana Seventy sixth street
and Undercltffs avenue. 1t was terribly
and shows plainly that a MUIR
der has been committed. It was wrapped
IN Oil cloth and manila paper. exactly as
was the upper part Of the trunk The two
are parts Of the same body. The two
pieces were found more than eight miles
apart, one in the water and the other
on land. The part found yesterday COM
prises the lower part OF the trunk from
the fifth rib to the hips. the legs having
been severed from the body at the hip
joints. The oil cloth was evidently cut
from the same piece as that which in
closed the upper part Of the trunk. The
man was laborer and his fingernails
were down to the quick as If he had a
habit Of biting the nails. The body was
weil-nourfshed and that of man about
3S years old. One of the stab wounds
reached his heart.

Of contractors who had entered into set

bers prominent in the Clothing Contrac-

Schoenfeld characterized the statement
as lie made out OF whole cloth.
In the face OF this denial q huge force
of idle ta:lors was found congregated at

said they had been locked out and made
