PROBABLY MURDERED
Body of Ralph Watson, Badly Man

Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
ANOKA, Mimi, Aug. S1.-The body
Of Ralph Watson, a. young man of
twenty seven, was found on the North
Anoka at o'clock this morning, man
gled almost beyond recognition. His
father, John T. Watson, a veteran Of
the Civil war, believes his son was
murdereseaapd his body placed on the
track. The young man, who was one
Of the most popular in the city, ate his
dinner with his fathers family yester-
day and his supper with some friends
in town. Along in the evening he was
seen with some young men acquaint-
ances. His father says he never touch
ed liquor, and at the time he left home
he had considerable money on his per-
son.
A wound three inches long on the
right side of his head, which looked
as if it had been made with piece
of railroad iron or some other blunt
instrument, gives color to the murder
theory.
Two railway trains passed over the
track at the point where the body was
found during the night. The coroner
will hold an inquest in the morning,
to which the crews of the two trains
will be summoned.
