FIND
OF WOMAN S BODY
NEAR SPOT WHERE DIsMEM-
BERED ST. JEAN GIRL WAS
DISCOVERED.

New York, Oct. 20.-The bleached
skeleton of a young woman, partly
covered by shreds of linen, which
once were part of her clothing, was
found in a lonely stretch of woodland
near Islip, l.. l.
Close to the skull was thick mass
OF blonde hair, tied with fragments
of big bow Of ribbon. 1t was evil
dent that the victim had been dead
Tor about a year.
1t was near this place that the dis
membered body of the st. Jean girl
was recently found.
The skeleton may be that OF Miss
May Smith, a nurse in the Manhattan
state hospital at Islip, who has been
missing since last spring.
Miss Smith was believed to be the
fiancee of Augustus Schwarz, now IN
the Jail at River Head, l.. l., awaiting
trial on a charge of numbering Irving
j. Nelson of Central Islip, Sept. 16.
Relatives of Miss Smith were re-
quested to try to identify the jewelry
found upon the skeleton, which IN
cludes a gold necklace and bracelet.
The theory that the girl was the
victim of a murder was strengthened
by the fact that the skull was found
about twenty feet distant from the
skeleton of the body and there were
indications that brush had been
thrown upon the body and burned to
conceal the crime.
Nearby were found silver thlmDle,
a pair of scissors, a bill of goods sold
at a delicatessen store in Krebel,
Prussia, and a steamship company
folder.

s DEATH
CALLED MURDER
AMERICAN FEDERATION OF LA
Dor SAYS INCIDENT ADVANCES
CAUSE OF LIBERTY.

Washing on, Oct. RESOLUTIONS,
fiercely denouncing the murder" OF
Ferrer and declaring that his mar
tyrdom'' has given the "cause of lib
erty a great impetus not only IN
Spain and European monarchial coun-
tries but everywhere that human as
piration for freedom yet seeks attain
ment," were adopted at yesterdays
session of the executive council OF
the American federation of labor.
Taken in connection with the SEN
fencing of President Gompers, Secre-
tary Morrison and John Mitchell TO
jail for contempt of court, the con-
GLIDING paragraph OF the resolution is
regarded as significant. 1t declares
that I'VE take this occasion OF the
military murder of man whose real
offending was the speaking, writing
and teaching of humanity to become
more wise, free and liberty loving, to
remind the people of our own coun-
try that the liberty of the citizen is
open court for any alleged offense IN
volving punishment is guaranteed
A belief was expressed that Ferrer
will rank with all who have done
| the greatest service to humanity, "a
| noble company of martyrs and a
cause in which any man might well
give his life did tyranny require it.
| Like Jefferson, Washington and Lin
coin, he labored, taught and suffered
that the people might have wisdom
and be worthy of freedom"
President Hays Of the glass bottle
blowers association protested against
the Illinois federation of labor recog
nizing the flint glass workers unions
/ whereupon telegram was sent to
President Wright of the Illinois
branch stating that the flint glass
workers association having without
! cause seeded from the American
| federation is not entitled to recognr
ton until it has complied with the de
cisions of the American federation
convention and executive council
New York. Oct. 20.-Five thousand
men and women last night at Carnegie

"Ferrer's life was taken because Of
| his unselfish devotion to the work oil
/ education and enlightenment We
feel a deep humiliation in our gov
| ernment's maintenance of diplomatic
relations with the Russian and Span
ish governments, which have proved
themselves outside the pale of civil
/ ization."

ECKEL S DAUGHTER
SOON A BRIDE

Chicago, Oct 20.-Friends and rela-
tives of Mrs. James H. Eckels, denied
that her beautiful country residence at
Oconomowoc, would be sold to satisfy
claims Of creditors of her deceased
husband.
Although petition in the probate
court shows that claims in excess OF
s1,000,00 are held against the estate
of the one-time comptroller of the cur
rency and president of the CONNER
cial National bank of Chicago, it was
said that the Oconomowoc home
would remain in the possession of Mrs.
Eckels and become the home of Miss
Phoebe Eckels, only offspring of the
dead banker, who is to be married No
vember II to John Archibald Stevens.
1t was intimated by those in close
touch with the financial affairs of the
family that reports of the financial
straits of the Eckels estate had been
exaggerated. Attorney John D. Hood.
representing Judge K. M. Lands and
George M. Eckels, administrators of
the estate, said that every claim on
loans, etc., was amply protected by
collateral securities. Many of these
claims, it was said, had already been
paid through the sale of such securi-
ties.
The picturesque home at Oconomo-
voc has been the favorite residence
Of Mrs. Eckels and her daughter. 1t
is rambling house, situated on a
hill overlooking Lac la Belle and sur
rounded by many acres of terraced
garden and lawn.
Mrs Eckels is i'll at her home. Her
daughter, who was in Oconomowoc at
q house party given in honor Of her
and her fiance, has returned. Prepa-
rations were being made for the we'd
ding. which will be largely attended,

New Orleans at the same time.
In the judgment of many" said
Mr. Pinchot, "the improvement of the
inland waterways is one of the most
vital problems relating to the conser-
walton of natural resources. Any
comprehensive plan of waterway Inn
provement, even though primarily for
navigation, must consider the use OF
the waters for irrigation, waterpower,
and domestic supply. A lasting water
way Improvement depends largely on
the conservation of the forests to pro-
tect the head waters and prevent
erosion AS Mr.. Roosevelt said of the
conservation movement-'there Is no
other> question of equal gravity now
before the nation"

Sitting in the lobby of the Avenue

statement to the effect that he asked
to be taken away for fear of possible
violence He also denied the insinua-
ton in the afternoon papers that he
was in league with the fellow who
robbed the bank several years ago.
He said that nearly all of the money
laughed at the statement that after
the robbery dishes were found on the
second floor of the bank, as the build
ing was only one story high at thar
time.
