STANDING IN RIVER
CHAMBERLAIN IS
FOUND DEAD
AT BITTER ROOT TRESTLE MAN
EVIDENTLY FALLS IN RIVER
AND is DROWNED

/ Frank Taylor, a rancher living near
| Lolo, was astounded early yesterday
| when he discovered that man whom
he saw standing in the Bitter Root
| river was dead. Something awkward
about the mans posture-he was
leaning forward at an angle difficult
for living body to assume, struck
Taylor as queer Investigation
showed that the man was dead. The
| coroner was notified at once.
The identity of the man could not
definitely be determined. In his
pocket was a memorandum book with
the name of j. c. Chamberlain writ
ten on the fly leaf. In the book were
faded pictures of three little children,
two girls and boy, all bright, nice
looking, we'll l-cared-for youngsters
Other papers and cards were marked
Baker City, Ore
The mystery surrounding the posture
of the man is deeper than that at
taching to his identity. He was
found directly under the railroad
trestlc near Fort MissouIa and, since
his hat and bundle still lay on the
bridge, it is believed that he sat down
to rest, fell asleep and slipped between
the ties. There were no marks on
his body that would indicate violence,
either done by himself or someone
else. Unless he fell aleep, or died
suddenly while on the trestle there is
no explanatio of his presence in the
water.
The coroner is puzzled by the posi-
ton of the man in the water. His
feet rested on the bottom in about five
feet of water, but the head floated so
that the body was almost erect. 1t
is asserted, however, that even were
the mans lungs full of air he would
have sunk within few minutes after
death. The body would sink. under
ordinary circumstances. physicians
say, until decomposition set in.
Officers kne wHm.
Chief of Police Tom Kemp and sew
eral other officers knew Chamberlain
when they saw him at the morgue.
For several years he was in the habit
of coming to the city with his horse
and buggy and leaving the animal
standing about the alleys unfed until
officers would take it to a barn. Moth
ing was ever learned of the mans
history.
