and found piece of q woman's body from
the waist 10 the neck. He reported tho ana
to DIR. posy, the state health officer. who
made an investigation and reported that
the flesh seemed quite freeh and appeared
20 have been In the water but . short time.
There was q cut about two inches ionG
over the right breast. but this was merely
= nesh wound. and DR.. poty said II did
NOT indicate the cause Of death.
The cuts In tho neck were jagged. show
ing that the head had probably been hack
ed or. and the arms had been cut OK
close TO tho shoulders in = clumsy manner.
The police were notified and took charge
Of the hnd at once and removed 1t to po-
lice headquarters whence II was taken 70
the morgue for comparison with tha parts
Of a woman's body already there.
The parts of the body now miesing are
the head. the arms. the legs from above
the knee down and the right thigh. which
was found IN the city dumps.
A name that looks like -. J. NeumAn"
and the laundry mark ~. J. N. 49," were
discovered this morning on one OF the
white shirts In a bundle Of clothing found
In the basement Of 7l9 West Ftfteenth

Of the laundry mark Ii distinct. however.
and In expected to lead to the identifica-
ton Of the owner. Il will then be easy 70
learn whether or not he was connected In
any way with the crime. Chief Of De-
tectives McClusky said this morning that
the case was az complete Q mystery -
ever. thas no point that would SO toward
establishing Identification had been made.
and that was the first thing necessary. IL
was true, he said, that a number OF clews
had been run down. but the case stands
just at II did at the frst finding OF the
part Of the body. Capt. McClusky thinks
the part found last night at 2ls West
Fifth street has no bearing on the case.
In his opinion the bundle was left where
II was found by frightened thief. Even
with the portion OF the body found on
Quarantine. Capt. McClusky thinks iden-

CONSULAR REFORM.

adeuuateA salaries for consulates, the
situation of which is unhealthy or bust.
ness attached to which is go extensive
and complex as to require the attention
of well-informedT Official of legal
training. 1avsNsfS~-
The estimates which. Secretary Hay
submitted to the present congress
provided for increases of salaries for
officers in Mexico, Central and South
America, Polynesia and the far east.
Once the salary of all of the copsulates
is on the basis which the department
desires, there is every reason to believe
that the secretary s0f state will urge
upon congress the necessity OF apply
ing some sort of civil service rules to
the whole service.
The first step in this direction has
just been taken by Secretary Hay,
who, along with his estimates for the
consular service, said:
''An important Recommendation is
submitted providing for the advance
ment of consular clerks to consular
positioing under the same conditions
governor their original appointments
The promotion is left to the discretion
of the president after five years salts
factory service. The object of this Is
the law creating those officers and is
only just to the present incumbents.
many of whom are most efficient and
valusbl and fully deserving of better
positions. strongly urge the adoption
of this recommendatton."
Should congress adopt the above re-
commentator, as is hoped by state de-
psrtmens officials it is proposed by the
president to make number of appoint
ments to consulates by selection of the
more meritorions of the consular
clerks. This would be the beginning
of the civil service reform in the con-
sular service. Once the opening wedge
is driven administration officials are
confident that congress will see the
desirability and value OF service
based upon merit alone and will make
provision for it in accordance with the
wishes of the state department.

reached the main road, fourteen miles
distant, at half past one in the morn
ing. having had to move slowly, as we
were carrying some of our wounded on
stretcbers. Here fell in with q citi-
zen, who was on his way to Lordsburg,
and he told me that the Indians had
left the ella River, after killing many
people, and were on their way to Mex
leo. Furthermore, it was still eigh-
teen miles to the river. made dry
camp right where we were, as men and
horses were very tired. In the morn
ing 1 was joined by Captain Gordon of
the Sixth Cavalry with his troop. and
Lieutenant Gatewood of the same regi-
ment with his Indian scouts. First
sending detail with my wounded to
Lordsburg, I at once started back on
my trail, rested at Horse Shoe Canon,
where the men got coffee and groomed
their tired horses. There were only
two small springs here, and the men
had barely enough water for coffee
and to fill their canteens, but lin every
instance they divided their canteens of
water with their suffering horses. We
then pushed onto Stems Pass station,
reaching there at half past nine o'clock
at night. 1 had sent q courier to
Lordsburg with a telegrsphic despatch
to Separ station for supplies and two
tank cars Of water, which / found
awaiting US on our arrival. Our horses
had travelled seventy-eight miles, six
teen at gallop, in most intensely hot
weather, and had been forty hours
without water, save about a.pint each
at Horse Shoe Canyon. We managed
to procure several barrels in which to
water them, and it was piteous to hear
them neigh and see them plunge as
they heard the water rush into the bar
rels from the faucets, and they we're
held back until their turn came to be
watered.
Despite the efforts of two men to
restrain each horse, 1t was not an in
frequent thing for them to plunge
their heads in the water-barrel quite
up to their ears in their eagerness to
slake their intolerable thirst. 1t was
half past one in the morning befO. e
the last animal had been watere6, and
then the command turned in for q
much-needed rest At daylight sent
out the s"outs to find the trail, as I
knew that the retreating Apaches
would cross the San Simon Valley for
the Chiricahua range on the Mexican
frontier, and all the men in camp set
to work to shoe up our horses, IS many
of them needed looking after in that
particular
