 Colchester, Conn, Aug. 2S.-Already charged with murder in the first degree in the killing of Joseph Pavoli, farm hand, John Marx. now awaiting trial in the superior court of New London county. will in all probability be charg- led with another crime as fendish and ghastly as the Pavoll murder and which came to light today Working for sev- eral days on the strength of a state ment made by an acquaintance of the accused man, an interpreter named AL phonse Grant of Norwich. to-day dis covered the body of young man in the woods half a mile at the rear of the former home of Marx, badly decompos- ed and done up in sack in a manner almost identical to that which the po- lice found in the Pavoll case. The dis covery was made after careful search of the woods and after digging down several feet in the earth. Grant found the place selected for the burial of the lyictim through a break in the wild overgroWth and immediately began ldigging. He encountered a top layer of earth and below 1t g. layer of stone. Then another layer of earth and then the sack which contained the body of l the man believed to be former helper on Marks farm. There was little chance of identifying it, but sack and all were taken to Sullivan's undertake ling rooms where an examination was made by Coroner Brown. The sack was of the same style as that in which Pa- voll was buried after his limbs had been cut off by Marx. The head, arms and Ilegs of the victim found this afternoon lhad been cut off. according to a state ment of Coroner Brown tonight and there is no doubt in the mind of Sher- Tiff Jackson that Marx is responsible for this murder. The sheriff stated tonight that he believed the body was that of Paul Parker, who disappeared from Ithe Marx farm suddenly year ago Hast October. Marx at the time, said that Parker had just been paid off
 when questioned as to his whereabouts land that he had gone to Pennsylvania seeking employment in the coal mines. The fact that nothing more was heard from Parker gave rise to suspicion and although an effort was made to find Ehim the police were unsuccessful. The lclothes of the man found murdered this lafternoon resembled those of Parker land have been saved by the sheriff. l It is the opinion here that there are tother bodies b uried in the woods, as lthere have been other disappearances from Marks farm during the past few | years which will bear out the statement tof the police of this county made sew eral months ago that Marx was respon- Isible for the death of more than one man, and that it would be only a ques- ltion of time before these murders are Drought to light.
 The finding of the body of Joseph Pa Twill last April in an old cellar on the ItMarx farm created a great sensation at 1.-the time and caused a search to be lstarted that finally located the alleged murderer in the home of a relative in ll lNew York. Marks case came up in the local court and he was immediately Ibound over to the superior court which loonvenes in New London the first Tues day in September To be arraigned Iwith him on the charge of murder in lthe first degree will be his wife, whose arrest on that charge followed careful investigation by Sheriff Jackson and his men.
 II The revelation made to-day, it is be- sl lieyed will help unravel a series of mur- lders as cold blooded as any crimes I ever committed within the borders of lConnecticut. It is charged in the Pavoll case that Marx, rather than pay the.
 man the money due him for services,
 murdered Pavoll and buried the body in the hope that the authorities would
 believe his tale that his helper had left. I
