Newport, Ore, July 27.-It is be-
lieved today that the body of wo-
man found hacked to bits in gunny
sack on the beach here yesterday
may possibly be that of Miss Sophia
Noise of Blodgett, Ore, who has
been missing for SINE time.
Until today it was believed that
the young woman committed suicide
on account of a note left at the Bay
View hotel in which 1t was stated
that she intended to throw herself
into Yaquina bay. Coroner Carter
said today that he believed that the
note was forgery and that the
crushed and broken bones are the
mute evidences of terrible crime.
An examination of the skull today
showed two fractures. A sister of
Miss Noise has been notified and
she is expected to reach here to-
night. Sheriff Ross and his deputies
are not sure that the body is that
of the missing woman and is contin-
uing an investigation on lines indie
pendent of those Of Coroner Carter.

No Clews to Identity.

Newport, Ore, July 27.-The au-
thorities are bending every nerve to-
day to ascertain the identity of the
body of a woman which was found
hacked into small pieces and sewed
in gunny sack on the beach yes
terday. That she was murdered the
officials do not doubt.
The body was examined at the
morgue today by number of local
surgeons. They declared that the
murdered chopped the body into
pieces so it would fit into the small
grain sack in which it was found.
There was hardly a bone in the
skeleton that had not been either
broken in two or crushed. This
leads the authorities to believe tha'
the murderer beat his victim 20
death and then cut the body to bits
with an axe.
When taken from its bed in .he
beach sands only small patches ci
flesh adhered to the bones. "A,
hair, which was long and chestnut
colored had become detached from
the skull. This and a perfect set Of
teeth are the only clews upon which
the police have to work.
The decaYed condition of the sack
and the fact that the flesh had
sloughed from the bones, indicates
that the woman met her death sew
eral months ago.
So far as known no woman has
disappeared from Newport or Lin
coin county recently, and this leads
to the belief that the dead woman
was a stranger here probably sum
mer visitor as Newport is one of the
big Oregon summer resorts.

theory and have notified the police
