RECOVER THE BODY OF
GEORGE NEAL

The body found last Thursday in
Snake river near Shelley was that of
George Neal, who disappeared from
Idaho Falls on the sixteenth of Sep
TENDER, 1918. He was one of the
business men Of Sunnyland and con-
Quoted The Brooks House near the
railroad bridge of Snake river. He
was 40 years old and had been trob-
led with erysipelas at times. He was
suffering from a severe attack of it
when he disappeared, and his cloth
ing was found on the river bank.
Somebody remembered that he had
made the remark not long before to
the effect that If he did not get re-
lief from the pain he would jump into
the river, but it was not taken ser
iously until after he disappeared.
Diligent search and much advertising
and inquiry far and near failed to
throw any light on the matter, and
many believed that he would yet be
found alive, and that the clothing on
the river bank was only decoy.
Last Thursday morning the
shrunken body was found partly
buried in the mud and sand in the
river, and it was brought to Black
foot. Only the trunk retained it's
form to any extent, the flesh being
mumified. 1t was dark and hard
like an elephants, and the head and
extremities were merely in skeleton
form. The naturalization was made
by several means. The size of the
body tailed with that of Mr.. Neal,
and the peculiarly small foot also.
He wore a number four shoe, ami
the bones Of the foot were unusually
small. The teeth bore some gold
crowns and bridge work. and DR..
Brookfield Of Idaho Falls had rec
ord of work done on Meals teeth.
He came down with his records, and
it all tailed exactly, leaving no
doubt that the body was that of
George Neal.
The funeral was conducted at Ida
no Falls last Saturday and the re-
mains were laid beside those of his
father who died broken-hearted since
Georges disappearance.

U-B0AT RAINED SHELLS UPON THE g g
 HELPLESS ONES
American Physician Aboard Ancona, Tells Story that
 Agitates Washington.

Washington, Nov. 13.-State de- partment officials tonight viewed with grave apprehension the state ment by Dr. Cecil l.. Griel, carried in press dispatches, that the submarine which sank the Ancona kept up a steady fire upon the liner while it's passengers were being placed in the lifeboats. If Dr. Griel, who is an American, substantiates this state ment, in a naffidavit to American consular officers, it was indicated this government will be forced to make an immediate protest to Aus tria- Hungary on the ground that 1t was an act of inhumanity.
 It was pointed out that the liner must have been stationary in order to lower its boats, and, consequently, could not have been trying to escape at that time. Officials made it plain, however. that this governments deci- sion would not be reached until the official reports are received. It is known that President Wilson has re- quested that he be informed at once of the receipt of any official dis patches that throw any light on whe- ther the vessel was trying to escape.

Former Austrian Consul Replies to neniais of Austrian and German Diplomats, Declaring Charges
 Will Be Proved.

Providence. R. l., Nov. 13.-Thc TOW:
 "In a vigorous reply to the denials of the Austrian embassy and several Austro-IIungarian consuls that they had been fomenting trouble in munl tiOns plants and constantly intrigu- ing with spies and secret agents, Dr. Joseph Coricar formerly in the Aus trian secret service, made the follow ing statement last night:
 "'Did anybody expect that these agents were going to acknowledg the facts? I can simply give my word of honor that what I have said is the truth, and that the facts aro going to be proved to the satisfac ton of the American people.
 Embassies Direct Work.
 CT will state further that nu act of violence, whether it be a fire in munitions factory, the explosion Of bomb on board a ship or the os tablishment of q fraudulent passpci office, springs from the dementea mind of any single individual.

 "These three men have full and complete knowledge of every move made by every German spy in tho United States. In spite of their as sertions of innocence in regard to the burning of munitions plants or Of the wrecking of ships, they are irl immediate touch with every transac tion.

These men have to keep in touch with the military and naval attaches of either the German Tor Austrian embassies, or else with [ the consuls have named already in my previous statement, and from them they secure all maps and charts, sailing lists of steamers and the precise locations of factories where ammunition is being manufac- tured.

Washington, Nov. 13.-A prelimi- nary statement Of the general results of the census of manufactures for the city of Pine Bluff, Ark, has been issued by Director Sam l.. Rogers, of the bureau of the census, department of commerce. It consists of sum mary comparing the figures of 1909 and 1914, by totals, prepared under the direction of William M. Steuarr chief statistician for manufactures.
 The figures are preliminary and subject to such change and correc- tion as many be found necessary from further examination of the original reports.
 The census of 1914, like that Of 1909, with reference to manufactures, excluded the hand trades, the build irg trades, and the neighborhood in- dustries, and took account only of establishments conducted under the factory system. In the last census, also, as in that for 1909, statistichs were not included for establishments having products for the census year

FOUR BIG MEN AND
 DIPLOMAT INVOLVED
Foreign Government Official May Be Requested to Go as Result of In. yestigatiens of Chief Flynn of
 Secret Service.

New York, Nov. / 13-The inner workings of the gigantic arson and bomb plot will be exposed to the pub lie gaze as soon as President Wilson gives the word.
 United States Marshal Snowden and William J. Flynn, chief of the secret service, hurried to Washington today Their mission, it was learned on the highest authority, was to in form Secretary of State Lansing, At torneyGeneral Gregory, and other advisers of the president:
 First, that they knnow the men "higher up' in the anti-allies' con- spiracies matched on American soil.
 Second, that a mass of evidence has been accumulated against these men. Third, that the evidence is in shape to present to special grand jury with convictions almost a cer- tainty.
 If the president gives the word to proceed, it is considered certain not less than three, perhaps a dozen, diplomatic representatives of foreign governments can be criminally in volved.
 The government at present has al- most complete data bearing upon the identity ofe the men financially re sponsible for the startling series of | fires in munitions plants and bombs aboard ships.
 Four ''Big Men" Involved. hn0nn n- ed against at least four men Of | wealth in this city. The four al- legged "big men" are:
 l A millionaire steamship man with huge commercial interests in Amer ica, 1 A prominent banker with strong l social and financial affiliations with | one of the central powers.
 The president of company which has made millions out of its exclu- sive rights to mechanical patent.
 A wealthy American, financially connected with one of the most pow erful banks in Europe.
 "An amazing story of intrigue, with thousands of cross currents" was the comment today of a federal l OHlCldl COSulIduC OA liAO AA~eNAA AN>- -- the hands of the government.
 Diplomat Implicated.
 "The surface of the story may be scratched next week at the trial Of the officers and employees of the Hamburg-American line. The name of a high foreign diplomat may De brought out in damaging fashion at the trial. The story of this mans connection with one phase of the foreign propaganda may be sufficient to cause the government to request his recall" .,,
 The Hamburg-American case will he called on Monday in the criminal branch of the federal district court. The trial will commence probably on Thursday. The steamship men are under indictment fo rtechnlcal viola lions of the customs regulations. It is alleged by the government that they secretly furnished German merce-destroying warshlps with supplies. The German commerce de- stroyers were cruising then in North and South Atlantic waters.
 Most prominent of the defendants ;s Carl Buenz. MT. Buenz was for- merly German consul-general in New York. He is now, resident director of the Hamburg-American line.
