BOY FOUND FROZEN.
EverS Indication Points to a Case of
Murder

Albany, n. Y, Jan. 12.--Aid OF the
police in every large city of the coun-
try has been sought, thus far in vain,
in the effort to learn the identity. of
the 5-year-old boy whose frozen
body with acid stains about the mouth
was found yesterday in a swamp on
the Schenectady road.
Today an autopsy will be held to
determine more definitely the cause of
death. but the police have little
doubt that the boy was slain by men
who forced carboIic acid down his
throat. A half, empty bottle of the
acid, bearing the label of an Albany
druggist was found under the body
The corpse was without shoes and the
stockings and feet showed no traces
of mud, as they would have had the
child walked to the place.
1t is the theory of the police that
the child was. murdered by kidnapers.
Every mark that might have served
as an identification had been removed
from the child's clothing. Everything
about the victim however, indicated
comfortable, if not wealthy circum-
stances
