SURE IT IS GREAT ADMIRAL
BODY OF PAUL JONES IDENTI-
FLED BY EXPERTS.
Corpse in Remarkable State of Pres
ervation-Remains to Rest
in Arlington.

Paris, April II. - Experts have iden-
titled beyond a doubt the body of Paul
Jones, unearthed in the old St. Louis
cemetery here. Owing to it's being i'm
mersed in alcohol the body was remark
ably we'll preserved.
The coffin was taken to the medical
school, where Drs. Captain and Papil-
laut, distinguished professors of the
school of anthropology, and recognized
authorities on such investigations,
were charged with making thorough
examination for the purpose of identi-
ication. To facilitate this the ambas-
sador furnished them with portraits
and medallionS. two busts by Houdil
and authentic descriptions of the color
of the admirars hair and the height
and measurement of his body. After
the most minute examination the fol-
lowing facts were fully substantiated:
Length of the body, five feet seven
inches; the admirals exact height.
Size and shape of the head agree
with several peculiarities identical
with the head of the admiral.
Hair, dark brown, the same as the
admiral's; in places slightly gray, in
dicating a person of his age, 40 years
The hair is long, reaching below the
shoulders, and is combed back and
gathered in clasp at the back of the
neck.
The face is clean shaven, all cor
responding exactly with the descrip-
tions, portraits and busts of the adj
miral.
The linen is in good condition. One
article bears an initial, either "J' or
an inverted "P."
Finding that all the internal organs
were singularly well preserved the doc
tors made an autopsy, which showed
distinct proofs of the disease from
which the admiral is known to have
died. The Identification was pro-
nounced complete in every particular

RUsso-JAPANEsE WAR.

London naval experts are of the be-
lief that the great naval fight in far
eastern waters will not take place until
early in May, and then will be fought
before Vladivostol, where Togo can con-
solidate his vessels.
The Japanese have closed the port OF
Kelung to foreign ships until further no.
tice. Kelung is a port on the north end
of the Island of Formosa. 1t is believed
at Washington that the action of the
Japanese government in closing Keluns
indicates that this port will be used by
Admiral Togo as base for his fleet.
Gen. Linevitch concentrated Russians
on the Kirin road, and another big land
fight is expected soon.
Japan learns that Russia is preparing
Vladivostok for a siege, manning the
fortress with 100000 troops.
