A Prosperous Farmer.
DIED IN A BOX CAR.
Corpse Found When Door Was I'm.
Ca.lad - e. .,,;.,


Burlington, Aug 10.--According to
the statement of DOC" Snyder, an en-
ploye of the Iowa Grain and Produce
company of this city, the corpse found
in box car when it was unsealed at
st. Louis last Monday. may prove tc
be that Of Frank Blanke, friend OF
his who was working in this city a
short time ago. The police heard Sny-
der's story last night. and are inclin-
ed to believe that he is right
The body was found by VIM. Bres-
nahan, a clerk of the G. B. & O., at st
Louis, while checking freight there
The man. who appeared to be about
twenty-five years old, must have beer
dead for week, and identification
was well nigh impossible. However
from the meagre description obtain
able, Snyder believes the body must
be that of his friend Frank Blanke
Blanke worked in Burlington up tc
about a week ago, when he told Sny-
der that he was going to steal ride
out of town on freight train and
tried to persuade him to go along But
Snyder refused. Blanke's home is In
East st. Louis. and he was talking OF
going home on the freight train. Sc
far as he can judge from the descrip-
ton, Snyder believes that this is his
friend who died in Il box car on the
way Further descriptions may shed
more light on the subject, and fix
identity beyond doubt.
