FL0ATER
FOUND IN
THE CANAL

While working yesterday morning on
at Chicago avenue, East Chicago, over
the canal. a number of orkm no.
ticed a dark object floating on the sur
face of the water about 200 feet south
of the bridge. As the object looked
like a human body they watched it
as the current, which was set toward
the north, slowly drifted it nearer to
the bridge.
1t, was not long before the men
were able to make out that it was the
body of a man. The police were noti-
fed and Freeman Fife. the undertaken,
was sent for and before they arrived,
Fred amman. Steve Orman and J.
Humes had to get the body
aboard a raft whence 1T was later
transferred to an ambulance and con-
lveyed to the Fife morgue.
, The body seemed to be that of a man
aged about forty-fve and the clothes
indicated that he might have been a
mechanic. There was nothing in the
pockets to identify the remains, a car
penter's pencil being the only shadow
of a clue his effects presented. The
body was considerably decomposed and
had evidently been in the water two or
three weeks.
1t has been suggested that the ar
ticies found by boys while fishing of
the One Hundred and Fifty-hrst street
bridge about three weeks ago and
thought to have been part of the con-
tents of a peddler's pack, might furnish
a possible clue to the Identity of the

In 1907 he voted against the bill

s,nger rates as they were doing in

He told President Finley, Of the
Southern railway, that he would
have friend in the mansion wnen
he (Blease) became Governor. When
ne got to be Governor whom did he
take to live with him? He took Ben
Abney. the chief counsel of the
Southern Railway company. the

Ben .Abney having made a million

the Governor? No wonder Blease
tells you the railroads gave Abney a
raise.
He had to select a private secre-
tary and clerk. Did he get farm

he went to the railroad offices and
got two railroad clerks, Rowland,
