how much l was to pay the members

REMAINS OF WOMAN
BURIED IN T0lLESTON
Police Have no Clue to the
Identity of Murdered
Girl Found in Slip.

Unless some one Identifies from the
descriptions sent broadcast throughout
the country the final chapter has been
written in the life of the young woman
whose body was found in the United
States Steel corporations Gary harbor
on Tuesday morning. Yesterday the
remains were inferred in Forest Hill
cemetery in Toleston but should the
occasion arise they will be exhumed for
Identification.
That the young woman was the vic
tim of a foul murder is now pretty
generally agreed upon. Recent clues
would indicate that she met>her death
in Chicago.
The latest theory of Chief Martin OF
the Gary police is that the body was
thrown into the drainage canal and
lowed to Chicago by one of the stone
barges that ply between Gary and the
Chicago canal
Physicians finding that the woman
was dead before being thrown into
the water has set the police of three
states working on the case. The de-
scription of the body is s follows:
Five feet . Il inches tall; dark brown
hair; weight about 40 pounds.
Between 20 and 80 years old: wei
Iproportioned; small hands and feet
Face full and round probably pretty
in life: nose narrow and low in bridge
-Four porcelain front teeth attached
by bridgework to gold crown over ar
eyetooth.
Dress, green suit trimmed on blach
braid. black embroidery about collar
similar braid reaching two-thirds OF
the way downsskirt; two vents in bach
of coat, trimmed with black buttons.
| Brown shoes. medium high heels
exactly six inches long.
/ Corset marked "R. & G.. taperins
waist, style A 61."

Judge Taylor. of the Juvenile court,

This applies only to working boys
who so desire comradeship that they

by the secretaries of the Y. M. c. A. is
that the names of the boys be kept

East Chicago. Ind, Sept. 81. - At
special meeting of the city council last
night the annual tax levy for next
year was adopted. the rate being placed
at 81. This is 43 cents lower than the
rate las. wear
Inciden. ally something of sensation
was sprung when Mayor Schlieker ask
ed the, council for an expression of
opinion as to whether the city should
refuse to honor further warrants for
the salaries of the two men who have
been sent here by the state board ex-
aminers TO audit the city's books. No
action could be taken on this matter
as the meeting was a special one, but
a number of councilmen spoke In
manner idicative of dissatisfaction that
the work should further continue. The
auditors have been at work on the
city's books since Feb 3. at daily
cost to the city of from SIG to $40 a
day.
Should the council take action ad-
verseseto the state auditors, there will
be $500 of the latters money held up,
that amount being now due them.
The mayor set forth that the law
under which the state board of exam
liners operates has been declared I'M
constitutional in two ceunties-Cass
and Starke-where the Nay of audi
tors working on the county books has
been stopped. and that the cases are
now with the supreme court for de-
cision.

know how long the expense to the city
would continue. and Buckley was Curl

dit of the special assessments in con-
nection with which the city was merely
