cations Are That He Was Hit Over
the Head With Heavy iron Bar.

With the finding of the body of a
man in box car at Umatilla this
morning, it is probable that another
murder has been added to the annals
of this country. The body when
found was still warm and a large
cut on the head leads 10 the belief
that a violent blow was the cause of
death

Folsom and Deputy District Attorney
". c. E. Pruitt were motif ed at once
OF the discovery and left on the local
10 make an investigation. Until they
oo.plct, This. It is impossible 70 say
how far facts bear out the theory of
foul play.
The body Of the man was found at
about 7:30 this morning by Harley
Mcclure, while he was looking over
cars sE the rp track. He noticed
blood trickling from under the door
Of one of the cars and. upon investi-
cation discovered the body stretched
upon a blanket. The head resting in
a pool of blood. At a. m. this same
car was inspected by Night Yard
master Mappin and at that time there
was no one in the car.
According t. those who saw the

man had been hit over the head with
an iron bar. The pockets do not ap

Pendleton, Ore, May 5. 1911.
Editor East Oregonian:
In order to correct an erroneous
impression and to inform the voters
of Pendleton concerning the city

onal $4,000 sewer bond issue, l ask
you to publish the following state
ment
We have at the present time in
cur city !reasurv 2 balance of S9,293.-
SO, in the sewer fund. We have OBJ
ligated our city council to the eastern
Oregon branch asylum board for the
extension of our main sewer to the
city limits on the west.
The voters of Pendleton are asked
to grant our city council the power t.
issue such an additional amount of
bonds mot to exceed 100000 as may
be necessary to eXtned the main sewer
and run laterals on Hazel and up West
Alta street to the Hawthorne school
building ana all property west of the
O.-W. r, & \. track.
As there is insufficient funds on
hand to complete the proposed sewer
extension, the intention of the coun-
ell is to issue just such an amount Of
short term bonds as will be actually
necessary to complete the work
Our city council is not endeavoriue
TO burden the taxpayers with exer-
lasting interest and bonds will be is
sued ana sold in our local market.
The term of these bonds to extend
from one o,five years at a low rate

When the people of the city vote on
the question of a gravity water sys-

the issuance of 100000 bonds as
many suppose but merely to empower
the city council to make such n bond
issue when deemed advisable.
Attention was called to this fact
today by Major Il. ]. Murphy, who
also declares that before the council
will authorize bond issue, in the
event the amendment carries tomor-

qulred to have its plans and rights of
way entirely perfected. The bonds
