|GRUESOME FIND
ON RIVER ISLE
STILL MYSTERY
No Clue TO Identity OF
Woman Buried on
Big Island.

Clinton. Iowa, Dec. s.-Although
his ONCE Is flooded with kilograms
and letters offering theories con-
corning the identity of the woman
whose corpse was found in shall
low grave in a lonely spot on Big
Island in the Mississippi river near
Thompson, ILL.,, on Friday night,
Coroner J. B. Schrieter OF Carroll
COUNTY, Illinois, today believes he
is no nearer a solution of the mys-
terry of the woman's identity and
the cause OF her death than ever.
Racine Mans Daughterf
The most tangible clue to the
possible identity of the woman is
contained in a telegram from b. S.
Chrisman of Racine, Wis, in which
MIR. Chrisman says the body may
be that OF his daughter, who disap-
peared three years ago. In a long
distance telephone interview from
his office in Savanna. Ill, today the
coroner indicated that he proposes
to prosecute persons reported to
have exhumed the body since the
coroner closed the lonely grave aft
er his investigation on Saturday
afternoon.
The coroner denied statements
that clues to the woman's identity,
which might have been found in
the grave, had been ignored by the
eoroner's party in making Satur-
days investigation
Coroner Answers Critics.
There. was nothing left" he said,
lint nj 90 Co fhn
reports that the hands were tied
found in the grave and the bones
of the hands and arms dropped off
freely when the corpse was raised.
While we did not completely sx-
hume the body. We uncovered it
sufficiently to assure ourselves that
no possible means of Identification
or Of determining the manner Of
death were being overlooked. I
expected criticism for reburying
the body on the spot, and not dis
interring and reburying it in a pot
ter's field, but 1t was the opinion
of my entire party, including coun-
ty supervisors and prominent
Thompson residents, that such &C
ton would be useless"
In his telegram Mr.. Chrisman
said his daughters front teeth had
been filled with gold. There was
no evidence that the teeth of the
dead woman had been filed. Coro-
ner Schreiter. however, believes the
body was buried some time in 1919,
but subsequent to the high water
of June of that year.
