sOIJRTH BODY HASBEEN FOUND

which could have caused death One was
at the base Of the skun. which had been
fractured as with billy; the other was
scross the top OF the head. the skull being
split open. The body was brought 10 town
today and buried under the auspices Of
the Ancient order Of United workmen.
The coroner has not yet returned yer
dict ia the case, as he has not completed
the investigation. Officers profess to have
little hope Of fastening tho crime upon any
particular person Just now, however, as
they believe that the murdcrers have had
ample time to cover up their tracks.
There are a few people who believe that
Pearson committed suicide but the officers
scout this idea, and point ont the fact
that Pearson WAS not a drinking man. aud
that as he lived at the Beaumont house,
about five blocks from the river at its
nearest point, it would have been prac.
tically impossible for him TO have gone to
the river in his underclothes 10 take his
life.
The other three bodies that have been
found were discovered in the later part
OF January. Two OF the three mon were
not identified. The other was recogniz-
ed as Patrick Fitzpatrick, a Southern Pa.
cihc employe, who had been missing for
three weeks. In two OF the cases death
was evidently caused by blow at the base
Of the brain and in the other ease II was
the result of blow across the right temple.
