recite in part:
THE murder of Ferrer was committed

Fall River, Mass, Oct. 1.-THE Tiv-

Monday the dismembered portions of a
young woman's body have been found
was the objective point today of an
influx of hundreds of mill operatives
from this city, who searched for the
missing head. But their day-lOng hunt
was without result. The beating of
bushes and thickets revealed no hid
den object of interest save for num-
bors of snakes; probing with sticks
uncovered nothing in connection with
the search and anxious peering by
hundreds of eyes dScerned nothing
which would he of value in the case.
After today's failure the police still

o large mob moved upon the Spanish
embassy to make Il demonstration Of
its disapproval of the execution of

Bat considerable excitement and I'M
easiEess prevailed in the ncighborhood.
The groans and hootings were plainly
heard in the embassy and at Bucking
ham palace nearby. No one was in
jured seriously. although the mounted
police rode against the crowds and
scattered them several times.
The trouble began with Il mass meet
ing in Trafalgar square, which was or

members of these organizations march

minus the head. is still doubtful. While
parents and relatives of Miss St Jean
state their belief that the body is hers,
an acquaintance of the missing girl has
brought out strong points against this.
The identification of the clothes found
several DAYS ago was the principal
factor in the original supposltion that
the body was that Of Miss st. Jean.
Should the head be found and prove
the body to be that of another girl than
Miss St Jean, the police must begin
all over again.
Tho official search, while not produc-
tive of its desired object. the head.
was not entirely barren of results.
