BODY OF UNKNOWN MAN
Supposed 10 Be from Steamer Planet Mercur,
Washed Ashore.

Halifax. n. s.. March 26.-At Sand
ford. near harrington, n. s., the body
of a man, supposed to be one of the
persons on board the missing steamer
Planet Mercury, was found on the
beach. An inquest was held but the
Jury could not identify the body or dis
cover any other facts than were ap-
parent.
The man was about feet. ~ inches,
in height and weighed 133 or lio
hounds. Hair was black. face was
gone and part of front teeth broken.
Wore a leather cap and common
clothes. Legs We're bare except for
one black stocking. No papers or
other articles were found in the pock-
cts, but on two pieces of the clothing
was the name &C. G. Parn." This may
or may not be his name, since the
clothing may have originally belonged
to another person. On one arm mad
been tattooed a double heart and IN
itials ~. NJ" on the other was n flag
with a shamrock in the center. Inc
body seemingly had been in the water
for a month at least. Its appearance
was that of a foreigner.
At first it was thought that the
body was that of Henry Melanson of
Little Brook Digby, who with Leblanc
of Meteghan, was washed from the
deck Of the schooner Herbert Rice,
two months ago, off this coast. but the
brother and sister of Melanson. who
drove down to identify the body, said
it bore no resemblance to their brother.
1t is very probable that the body is
that of one of the members of the
crew Of the PLANET Mercury for.
Saturday, life buoy marked with the
steamers name was picked up near
the same spot where the body was
found
Messrs. William Law & Co. of Var
mouth. have received letters from the
underwriters which indicate that the
owners Of the cargo shipped on the
Planet Mercury have made applica-
ton for their insurance.

RETURNING TO WORK.
Chicago Machnists Gaining Their Demands
General Strike ProbIematicaI.

Chicago, March 26-The Times-Her-
aid says: The Machinists Union
claims to have made such prongress in
the settlement of its differences with
individual firms as to have practically
broken the back bone of the machin-
lists strike in Chicago. The new form
OF agreement adopted by the machin-
ists, which does away with nearly all
the objectionable features. has been
signed by % firms. and it is expected
that today, 200 of the 5000 strikers.
machinists in Chicago, will be back at
work under the new agreement:
over 100 striking machinists former
~ employed by the Siemens & Halske
20, today, returned to work for that
corporation. their demands for a 9
hour working day and minimum
scale of wages having been granted.
Inc firm, however, refused to recog-
nlze the business agent. The settle
ment of the strike is looked upon in
the nature of a compromise. The re-
turn TO work of the striking machin-
ISIS at other shops under similar con-
ditions is expected.
