FOUND A FL0ATER
IN THE COLUMBIA RIVER
Body Of Unknown Man Picked Up Near White
Bluffs by Charles Mclaughlin Be
John Peterson

John Peterson
A "foater" was found in the Column
bia river near White Bluffs on May %,
and who the victim is has not been as
certained vet to a certainty, but he is
supposed to be John Peterson of Spo-
kane.
Willard Derrymo, who is drilling a
we'll near White Bluffs, came to the
county seat on Monday and reported
the case to the HERALD. He gave the
following particulars OF the affair
Charles Mclaughlin, farmer living on
the Yakima county side near White
Bluffs, found the body in the river. He
took it out and notified some of his
neighbors, who are very scarce in that
vicinity, and together they gave the re-

mains burial the next day, not thinking
it worth while to inform the authorities.
Mr. Mclaughlin described the man as
being under middle age, with all his
clothing on excepting hat. There
were no indications that he had met
with foul play. His head, however was
badly bruised, but this indicated that
he had fallen some distance and struck
some hard substance. Otherwise he
was not injured. A partly written let
ter was found in one of his pockets. 1t
was on a Scandinavian (Spokane)
House" letter head, but contained no
signature. A check for $500 made pay
able to John Peterson was also found
and this is supposed to be the man
name, there being nothing else to indi-
cate who he was.
1t is the supposition that the man
fell off Great Northern train while
crossing the Columbia at Wenatchee
and was killed in the fall or he may have
been walking the bridge at that place
and dropped off into the river. 1t is
supposed the man had been in the wa
ter about four days, as decomposition
had just begun.
LATER.-After writing the above the
following item appeared in the Post
lntelligencer, which may clear up the
mystery as to the mans identity:
Wenatchee, June "A man bv the
name OF ii. b. Smith, night-watchman
on the steamer Selkirk, jumped into the
Columbia river at Wenatchee last Mon
day to take bath and was drowned
He went down in full view of the crew,
and never came up. His body has not
been recovered He was about 25 wears
OF age. Nothing is known of his rela-
tives here

siders that IL has taken Just seven

Grandpa does so and goes with a
whirl which carries the average au'

that every member OF the company Is
made to contribute to the last atom ev-
