The remains were identified by two
men who have been working on the
river near here and who claimed that
the drowned man had been with them
NJ till Friday night when he had dis
appeared. The last that they had seen
OF him was when he was sleeping on
the river bank near the place where
he evidently was drowned He had
been drinking a little but was not in

was in any danger. In the morning,
however, he was missing and his hat
was found where he had been and
they at once decided that he had fallen
into the river but when they had drag
ged the place Tor several hours with
out success they concluded that he

was done toward further search for
the man ana nothing more was
thought of the matter until the fioater
was found this morning then the men

There seemed to be no facts to sup
