BODY OF MISSING NAN
is FOUND IN RIVER

The badly decomposed body OF Jo.
seph J. Michowski. so years old, was
found floating in the river at the foot
|of Twelfth-st., near the Wabash
freight house. Saturday morning, and
was taken in charge by Coroner Bur
CESS.
Michowski disappeared from his
home, No. 332 Thirty-third-st., on the
night OF Oct. 8, when he parted from
his son, who lives at No. 43 Boone
ave, at 10 o'clock, and failed to reach
his home.
The son reported the disappear
ance to the police. two days later.
Recovery OF the body was the next
trace found OF Michowski.
A bank book and s12.11 In cash,
found on the body seems to dispel
any theory OF foul play, and II Is
thought that the aged man either COM
mitted suicide, OF accidentally fell
into the river while walking along
the docks.
