BODY OF NEWBORN
 BABE IS FOUND
Strangled by Strip of Undercloth-
 ing-No Clue to Murderer

The body of a newly-born baby girl was found yesterday afternoon along the railroad tracks almost directly in the rear of ITO West Main street, and several hundred feet in back of Hart and Hutchinson factory. It was wrapped in bundle of white ollcloth and newspaper, and had piece of underclothing drawn securely about the neck and tied behind the right ear.
 Sergeant William c. Hart, who is investigating the case, believes that it is a case of murder, because of the condition of the body. It was not clothed, and there is no clue to the parents of the child. The police be- lieve that the body was placed there only short time before it was found, because the oi1cloth and newspaper in which the body was wrapped was not wet, although there was brisk shower less than an hour before the discovery. Thus far, no one has been found who saw anyone in the vii cinity of the spot, and though the body was almost purple from blood stagnatien, there was no sign of de- composition. t.-..
 John Smegal who found the little bundle, said that he and his son were walking along the tracks towards White Oak, and he had descended to the foot of an enbanki. nt, when his attention was attracted to the bundle which lay near some bushes. He immediately notified Captain Thomas W. Grace by telephone, and Sergeant Hart and Patrolman Patrick McAvay were sent to the scene.
 It is not thought that the bundle was hurled from a passing train, be- cause, when found, it had all the ap- pearances of having been carefully placed there by some person who had ample time to get away before he or she was seen.

POLICE ON TRAIL
 OF MAIL BANDITS
Arrest One Suspect, Very. Drunk
 Says He's MoonShiner

Detroit, Oct. 10.-While federal agents were questioning a man giving the name of Bob Cunningham, de- tained in Toledo on suspicion of con- nection with the mail robbery here last Friday, police today instituted a rigorous search of all foreign quar- ters of the city for the four bandits. The first clue to their identity was obtained yesterday when trunk con- taining the mutilated mail sacks and rif1ed envelopes was found in an al- ley. Finger prints taken from the envelopes and the trunk were ex- pected to aid the officers.
 Police were unable to identify Gun ningham by that name and said the fact certain bag bearing the name of the National Bank of Commerce here was found on his person might not connect him with the mail rob- bery. They pointed out that none of the registered packages stolen con tained money shipments to that bank. Carl Grebe, arrested Saturday on a technical charge of violating the Unit ed States code was still in custody today, although Williams Macaley the l mail wagon driver, failed to identify him as ono of the bandits.
 The trunk in which the mail bags were found was turned over to fed eral authorities today after it had been carefully examined by police. There was no mark of Identification on it but from the part of the city in which it was found, officers said they were convinced the holdup was the work of foreigners.
 All the mail pouches had been

JAMES INVERSION
 KILLED BY TRAIN
Man Is Horribly Mangled by Lo-
 ComOtiVe Near East Street

James Iverson Of 383 Arch street yesterday morning when he was hit by a train while walking along the railroad tracks about 1000 feet east of the East street crossing. The en- zine and two cars passed over him before the train could be brought to a stop. and when the engineer and fireman arrived at the spot, they found him with his head severed from his shoulders and his body hor- Iibly mangled.
 The body was not identified until late in the afternoon when members of the family recognized his clothes
 The police were notified, and Ser geant George Kelly reported the mat ter to pr. Waterman Lyon, medical examiner, who gave permission for the removal of the remains to the undertaking rooms of K. Boglowski, until identification should be made. Dr. Lyon found a slip of paper in one of the pockets, with 'W. Iverson' written on it, and except for a watch and a few other small articles, there was nothing in the clothes. Later in the day 1t developed that the dead man was wearing his sons overcoat, which accounts for the slip of paper Tn the pocket.
 The train which hit Ivereon was due in New Britain from Hartford at 7:21 a. m., and was in charge of Con- dnctor James Thompson and En- gineer Patrick Dooley. The engineer in statement, said that he saw Iver- son walking towards the train on the track next to that on which the train was running. At the sound of the whistle, he seemed to become con- fused, and stepped from the clear track directly into the path of the cncoming train. It was too late to stop, and the man was struck and ground to pieces. He denied the story that Iverson was reading a newspaper. explaining that the newspapers found on the body were used by the pas sengers on the train to cover the sruesome sight. \
 MT. Iverson was born in Sweden and was 45 years old. He came to this country at an early age and has a wide acqpnfntance here. During 1915-1916 he was member of the common council and it was while serving in that capacity that he made many friends about the city. He was an active member of Andree Lodge, o. O.. F., Hundred Mems society and the Swedish Social club.
 His health of late has been very poor. and at times he has been men, tally unbalanced During one of these spells few weeks ago he at- tempted to take his own life by cut ting his throat, but prompt action saved him, and he was discharged from the hospital. He was in the habit of taking long walks early in the morning, in order to regain his strength, and yesterday morning, he set out to visit his brother in law, who lives on East street extension.
 He is survived by his wife; two daughters, Harriet, aged 20 years, and Myrtle. aged 8: two sons, Walter aged Is, and Leonard, aged 12; one brother, Nils Iverson of Bridgeport and one sister in Sweden.
 The funeral will be held at 2:3t o'clock Tuesday afternoon at hi. home, 383 Arch street. The service. will be private. and will be conductec by the Rev. pr. S. G. Ohman, ana burial will be in Fairview cemetery.

Coming to the United States he lived for some time in Pennington, Conn.,, where he wrote historical articles for American news papers and magazines.

Was Found-Drunk,

Toledo, O., Oct. 10.-After receiv- ing information that member of the Detroit postal robber gang was pass ing through Toledo, city detectives and postal inspectors rushed to the Union station to capture the sup posed bandit. When they arrived they found the suspect, luggage and all perched peacefully on the baggage platform the proud possessor of a capacity jag. Giving his name as Bob Cunningham, Detroit, he began turning his pockets wrongside out to prove his innocence to the postal in- spector and the floor became flooded with a rain of small coins and crumpled one dollar bills.
 At the police station where he was taken he told the turnkey he was a ''moonshiner by trade" and opened his suitcase and produced evidence to prove it in the form of two quarts of raisin jack and half dozen bottles of nine per cent beer. The charge against him was changed.

GOLD FIELDS BUSY
Stamping Grounds of Old 49ers is Once Again the Scene of Mining Activities.

Sacramento, Oct. 10.-A pronounc- cd revival of activity in the gold min ing fields of northern California and Nevada. where the 49eEs once 'operat- ed. is being manifested, according to reports reaching this city, and most of 1t, is believed, is due to the declining cost of materials used in mining op- e-ations. Reduced cost of labor also is a factor in the renewal of activity.

 He had risen to about 1000 feet while standing on the upper wing, and while the second machine was pass ing over he reached successfully for the ladder, but before he had con- frmed his grip his hand slipped and he dived forward, falling to death through the 500 or 600 feet to which the machine had sunk meantime.

Any breaking out of the skin on face, neck, arms or body is overcome quickest by applying Mentho-Sul- phur. The pimples seem to dry sight up and go away, declares a noted skin specialist.
 Nothing has ever been found to take the place of sulphur as a pimple remover. It is harmless and mex pensive. Just ask any druggist for a small jar of Mentho- Sulphur and use it like cold cream.
