Himself on Streets of Council Bluffs
Last Week May Be Identified With
Missing Central University, PeIIa,
Professor
Special to Times-Rcpubl,can.


Council Bluffs, March 26.--Chief of
Police Richmond is in receipt of an in
Central University at Pella, containing
information which 1t is thought may
throw some light upon the identity Of
Oliver Hamilton. the man who com
mitted suicide upon the street here last
week. Professor Young read in Des
Moines paper Of the suicide and de-
scription Of the man, which tallies so
closely with the description of A. d.
Cox. missing and former professor at
Central University, that he thinks the
body now being held here is that of
Cox
The dual descriptions tally closely in
a number of details. The dead man in
his talk and manners gave the police
here the impression he was an English
man. Professor Young says that Cox
was not an Englishman but that he
was a New Englander. The dead man
was victim Of drugs. and Professor
Young says it was suspected Cox was
addicted to this evil, but that this was
not definitely known to be fact. Cox's
mother. Mrs F.. A. Cox. lives at Hap
scot. Novia Scotia, and upon inquiry,
wrote that she had heard nothing OF
the whereabouts of her son for several
