Body Of Unidentified Man
Found on West Bank of River

The body of man, apparently
about 80 years old, was found by
Coroner Cutler of Council Bluffs on
the west bank of the Missouri river
just opposite the Thirty-seventh
street pumping station and short
distance from the Illinois Central
bridge, late yesterday afternoon.
One arm was buried in the sand
of the river bank and it is thought
that he may have fallen from the
bridge. No Identification marks
were found other than registration
card Of September II, 1918, which
gave the name of Mike Bozesse,
1923 Capitol avenue, Omaha.
Upon inquiry at the above address
it was learned that he had roomed
there until last January, when he
was taken sick and sent to St. Jo-
seph's hospital.
Hospital authorities say they have
no record of any such name.

DISINCLlNED TO COMMENT
Washington Interested in Carranza's
Messaue

Washington, Sept S--Ofilcials here
read with interest the summary OF
President Carranza's message to the
Mexican congress, but were disin -
clined to discuss It.
1t was pointed out, however, that
there seemed to be nothing to indl
cate that Carranza contemplates any
recession from his position that pc
troleum deposits belong to the ma
ton and that confiscation of prop
crty of foreigners is to be effected
by some legal means. The statement
that the government was willing to
conciliate the oil interests was re-
garded with question, as 1T was
pointed out that nothing In an
nounced intentions on the part OF
the Mexican government has indl-
Gated a willingness to protect the
rights of foreigners acquired prior tt
the enactment of the present Consti-
tuition. The fact that 30 per cent
OF the property of the American OF
companies is admittedly to be con-
fiscated as undeveloped land Is re-
garded as significant.
President CarranZa's reference &c
the Monroe doctrine, declaring tina
Mexico did not and would not recog'
nize it, caused no surprise In otticia
circles.
