Evidence of Murder Disclosed at
Chinook by Finding Of Badly
Decomposed Body.
SKULL HAD BEEN CRUSHED
Throat Had Appearance of
Strangulation and Body Had
Been Weighted and Thrown
Into the River.

Evidence OF foul murder came 4
light yesterday at Chinook. according
to reports brought over yesterday by
steamboat men. The badly decomposed
body Of man. with the skull crushed
marks indicating strangulation on the
throat and a rope with sack attached
around the waist. was found In the
lead" Of the fish trap of b. Suther-
land. All the circumstances point to
murder, but there is little likelihood
of the mystery ever being cleared up.
The body was almost naked, being
covered only with an undershirt. II
was taken ashore and Justice Dalton
empaneled a jury to make an investi-
CATION. 1t was found that the skull
had been crushed in. as IL with a
heavy club or stone and that marks
indicating strangulation were on the
neck. Around the waist rope had
been tied and to II was attached a
sack. Presumably the man had been
choked into unconsciousness, then
killed with some heavy weapon and
the body Weighted and thrown into
the river through an effort on the part
of the murderer to hide evidence of
his foul crime. 1t was stated by
gentleman who had been at Chinook
yesterday that the Justices jury was
satisfied the case was one Of murder.
but there Is absolutely nothing that
might tend to throw any light on the
mystery.
The body had been In the water for
fully two weeks, and the face had been
rendered unacceptable by the nib
bling Of fishes. Members of the JUS
tees jury were of the opinion the
corpse was that of a Chinaman, but
when the Chinese learned of this they
caused the body to be exhumed and
made further examination. They pro-
nounced the body that of a soldier
from one of the neighboring posts.
Every circumstance in conection
with the finding of the body indicates
that murder was done, but, because
of the condition of the corpse, there Is
not the slightest chance that the mys-
terry of the mans death will ever be
cleared up.

Secret Ballot.
Springfield. May 1S.-The republican
state convention commenced another
day in fruitless ballotIng and although
the leaders have been in conference
since daylight there is not the least
indication Of break anywhere along
the line.
Sherman's followers today continued
to vote with Deneen, but Cook county
developed no additional strength. The
Yates followers remained firm. Homer
Tice, Sherman's manager, has sug-
gested that a secret ballot be taken and
this plan is under consideration to-
night.
Nine ballots were taken today, and
the result on the last one stood
Yates, 4S2; Lowden, 4OS1a. Deneen,

man, 2; Pierce, SO.
