TORSO OF GIRL IS FOUND

RECENT MURDER.
Police Are Without Clue az to the
Identification Of Victim or Of
Those Responsible.

Tiverton, r. l., Oct. 1y.-Although

murder had been committed was

torso of the young woman whose legs

ing Bulgermarsh road. the police were
still without a clue as to the identity
Of the victim or of those responsible.
Deduction overnight however had led
them to look Fall River or possibly
Tiverton as the scene of the crime,
rather to New Bedford. A SEEMING in
dication that Fall River was the place
Of the murder was found in the pencil
written name and address "Frand
Hill, Tor HID Pleasant street. Fall
River" which appeared on the inside
Of the cover of the travelling bag. the
lower part of which contained the
severed lower limbs found Monday. In.
quiry at Fall River, however, failed
to attach any connection with the
crime TO two men of that name in the
city, neither Of whom live on Pleasant
street.
The addition Of the torso, leaves
missing only the head. arms and the
right leg from the knee down. From
the partial body, young woman is
described as the victim as follows:
About feet in height: about 20
years old; fairly we'll developed; dark
brown hair; feet size 3. and probably

"A few years since a violent and

the surface of the Gulf stream be-
tween Florida and the Bahama is
lands. The dam of this few feet of
the surface Of the Gulf stream was

returned to pursue their accustomed
channel the contest between the
winds and waves presented a picture
that beggared all description. The
inflow of water covered the east
coast of Florida some feet with sea

"On our return in the good steamer
Halifax from Havana to Knights Key,
the water was rough and the pillows
dashed by the wind, white with foam,
rose and fell as if on a mad dance for
precedence. Sea plants and other
marine forms were being borne upon
the waters to the northern seas.
Schools of flying fish left the water
as the steamer disturbed them, show

low over the waves, now and then
touching a sea weed with its beak. II
often appeared as if the waves would

beauty and an emblem of joyous life.
