Find Rody of Woman.

Portland.-With features so badly
swollen and decomposed as to be al
most unrecognizable, the body of an
unknown woman, apparently about 25
years of age, was found floating in
the willamette river at noon today
near the Portland shipyards at the
foot of Wood street.
The find was made by Tom Flint,
and James Nothesboom, employees of
the shipbuilding company. The po-
lice and Coroner's office were notified
and the remains removed to the
morgue by Deputy Coroner E. c. Dun

there was absolutely nothing on the
person of the dead woman that would
tend to establish her identity.
