rounding the Disappearance of Andrew
Rudy, who left the home of his bride
to-be, Miss Lizzie Hominda; a week
ago Saturday morning shortly before
they were to be married. was partly
solved this morning by the finding Of
his body near Balfour dock. How he
met death is puzzling his friends. Some
hold to the murder theory. some 10 sui
eide and others to- accidental drown
ing. There is a mark near Rudy's
right eye. and a wound at the base of
the skull Some: friends are inclined to
believe the wounds were made by bull
lets. ~
Coroner Stewart made a thorough
examination of. these wounds and says
1T is his opinion that they are bruises
caused by.striking piling or some other
part of the wharf. The Coroner says
it. is a case Of accidental drowning.
1t was about 1889 o'clock when Rudy
left the .Hominda home. He did not
tell his bride-to-.be or any of the. as

brakemen, and said he supposed the
suit cases contained nothing but per-
sonal effects. Brakeman Burns ex-
plains the presence of stolen piunder
in his house by stating that he sup
posed his friends had. left it there with
out his knowledge. The conductor and
