persons contended for the possession
of little girl with the result that
she still is classed as unclaimed. So
altered are the features of the dead
that many mistakes have been made.
Some bodies are so mutilated that
those who identified them as men
were told that they were women. The
reason for the mistake was that the
hair had been drawn back tightly.
Among the identified dead was

light. On the dip there was trade buy
ing and further covering of short lines.

bearish. A Liverpool cable contributed
the weakness in that market to Ameri-
