the following;
There is a murder mystery at the
New York barge Office. About four
months ago a young man complained
to the authorities at Washington that
his father. an immigrant just arrived,

New York. An investigation by inspee-
tors from the treasury department has
resulted in the discovery of a mans
body concealed in the barge office. The
BODY is beyond Identification. but is be-
lieved to be that of the man who dis
appeared.
That the crime of murder was COM
mitted b. an employee of the national
government is not doubted by officials.
Ti.ey are, however, pOwerless to- fix
the crime on any one and the matter
is likely to be dropped.
The report of the inspectors in this
case. as we'll as all information con-
corning the mystery, is withheld at
