BELIEVED TO BE GERMAN

BALTIMORE. Md, January 4.-The
authorities of the fourth district of Anne
Arundel county. the section around Oden-
ton and Patuxent, where the body of an
unidentified white man was found early
Thursday morning. bound to the rails on
the main line Of the Pennsylvania rail-
road. within 500 yards Of the PatuXent
station. are now, working on a new the
ory. 1t is the belief now that the man
was murdered before being placed on the
railroad tracks in the path Of one Of the
fastest express trains on the road.
What causes this new version of the
mystery which has the authorities baffled
is peculiar wound in the back of the
mans head. When the head was found
in gully. nearly twenty-five feet deep
and about 100 yards from where the body
was bound to the rails. the face was per-
feet, there not being a scratch or a blem-
ish of any kind. The wound in the back
of the head was one that had been made
presumably by a club or a pair Of brass
knuckles.
A blow with either of those weapons
would have crushed the skull in SINH
lar manner. Had the driving wheel of
the locomotive struck the s ull it would
nave cTuS.leu IL eItlTcIy anu the Speeu
of the big engine would have hurled it 4
great distance. This would have practi-
cally made the features unrecOgnizable.
AS it was, however. there was not a
scratch or a bruise on the face.
Another Version.
There Is another version of the crime.
The authorities also think it possible that
after the man had been murdered some
distance away from where the mangled
body was found he was carried or taken
in a rig to the Little Patuxent river
bridge and bound to the rails They think
that the man was beheaded before be-
ing carried to the railroad, and that the
head was thrown into the gully in the
hope that it would never be discovered.
That such a thing could have happened
is borne out by the fact that in that sec
ton of the country-especially around
PatuXent-hOuses are far away from one
another and the roads are dark and lone
some. At the time in the night when the
body was bound to the track persons are
seldom out.
On the night of the murder it was very
dark. A wagon could have travelled from
PatuXent, the scene of the crime, to
OdentOn without having to pass one
farmhouse on the way.
The new state road twists and turns
through thick woods between those points,
and the perpetrators of the crime could
tim to the rails and then E;.ve had ample
time to drive to the vicinity of Odenton
where, after leaving the team in the
hands of a confederate. they could have
gone to the railway station and boarded
a midnight train for Baltimore.

AIMS AT MARITIME CANAL
Representative Mann Intro
duces Bill to Repeal Act
of Incorporation.

Repeal of the act that incorporated the
Maritime Canal Company of Nicaragua
was proposed yesterday in measure in
troduced by Representative Mann of ILL.,
nois, republican leader of the House. The
company, existing since 1889, has made
almost identical reports each year to the
Interior Department. setting forth, along
with it's assets and liabilities, the claim
that Nicaragua unlawfully seized and
confiscated the entire plants and prop
erty of the company.
Says No Rights Are Surrendered.
The company has made various protests
to the State Department, and contends
that it has never surrendered it's rights
to construct canal across Nicaragua,
a project that dates back to the decision
which resulted in the building Of the
Panama canal.
Mr. Mann concluded that inasmuch as
there was no outlook for any ship canal
across Nicaragua, it was time to wind
up the affairs of the corporation. Its Off
GERS are Henry E. Rowland, president
and chairman of the directorate; Stewart
W. Chisholm, vice chairman and director
William HI. Bulwinkel, secretary and
treasurer; Otto 7. Barnard. former can

Train Crew to Be Quizzed.

Because of this and the fact that two
suspicious-looking persons boarded that
train at Odenton. Sheriff G. Thomas Beas-
ley will examine the crew Of that train.
Sheriff Beasley was in Baltimore yester-
day and visited Union station. There he
held lengthy conference with the sta
ton master.
Paul Griffin, the frackwalker from Oden-
ton to the Patuxent River bridge. yester-
day told Sheriff Beasley that he had seen
two Notwithstanding persons board the
1925 train bound for Baltimore. Sheriff
Beasley thinks that perhaps the crew
will be able to enlighten him and furnish
a description of the men. who will be
sought 1t Is believed that they are in
this city.
A pair of brass knuckles and a razor,
both smeared with blood. were found yes
terday by William Williams. who lives
at 1873 North High street. Williams early
yesterday morning went to the alley in
the rear of his home. and there. lying near
his back gate, were the bloodstained
weapons. They were turned over to Pa
trolman William Higgins of the central
district, who in turn gave them to Capt.
Henry.

Clue Proves False.

Working on the theory that the victim
might be a Washingtonian, Maj. Syl-
vester, chief of police of the capital, sent
two of his men to Odenton and Patuxent
yesterday morning. The Washington
authorities for time believed that the
man might be John c. Berg Of IS o
street northeast, Washington, who has
been missing for some time. Berg has
the thumb of his left hand missing, it is
said, and this led the Washington au-
thorities to investigate when they learn
ed that the victim had his left thumb off
also. This. however, proved to be false
clue, and late yesterday afternoon the
Washington men returned home.
An official photographer of the Wash
ington Bertillon bureau went to Water
bury Nd. yesterday to photograph the
face of the man at the undertaking estab-
done because the Washington authorities
Capital city. and are devoting their eff
forts to looking over the entire list of
missing persons.
Sheriff Beasley will bring to Baltimore
the watch found on the body in the
hopes of being able to find some jeweler
here who repaired 1t, and will be able to
throw some light on the perplexing mys-
terry. That is about the only thing by
which the authorities hope to identify
the man. However. the watch, jewelers.
say, has not been manufactured for more
than twenty-five years. 1t Is RemOn-
toir, and the jeweler of that name made
watches in Switzerland up to about a
quarter of century ago.
