DEATH Is CAUSED
BY EXTREME HEAT
High Temperature Yesterday Finds
Victim In Davenport Man, So
Far Not Identified.

The heat claimed victim in Daven-
port yesterday. A laborer was over
come by the heat at o'clock on East
Locust street, and although he was
promptly given medical attention, he
passed away at o'clock this morning.
The man was trying to stop car, and
when first noticed it was thought that
he was intoxicated. His mouth was
open, and he was very evidently in
distress.
He has not been identified yet, and
the police are at q loss as to his iden-
tity He was dressed in working
clothes, and the fact that clay covered
much of his clothing indicates that he
had been working as a laborer. The
authorities are surprised that there
has been no report from his family
He was walking toward the residence
part of the city and not in the board
ing house section. 1t is possible that
he became crazed by the heat and lost
his way entirely.

Suddenly Williams threw up his
hands when about 100 feet from the
shore and went under. Weld was
close to him at the time and when
Williams came up again he seized
hold of him and attempted to carry
him to the shore. 1t was a long, hard
SWIM. carrying a man who weighed
much more than he did and before
the young man had succeeded in get
ting him half way his struggles broke
the hold which Weld had and he sank,
never to rise again alive. Weld
shouted loudly for help while he was
trying to carry his companion in, and
mis- cries were heard on Second ave-
nue. by the police who responded at
once but too late to save the young
man. They Immediately sent to the
station for the newly acquired crap
ping apparatus and worked all night
trying to recover the body.

morning under the direction of Chic

about 50 feet down stream from where
Williams was last seen. The remains
were taken to the Knox undertaking
rooms Out of the three graphing
hooks which the police used in drag

Several times during the morning thu
hooks touched the body but the fac
that the young man had taken OF
