PARTLY RAZED BARN
AND CONTENTS BURN

What remained Of the barn Of the
Union farm on the Oakland road was
burned about midnight Saturday
night. Councilman ]. Clyde Murray
of this city was the owner Of the
barn. Some lumber which Mr.. MUIR
ray had stored there was also con-
sumed by the blaze. The cause"of the
fire is not known.
When Harry E. Green noticed the
fire it had a good start. He quickly
notified Mr.. Murray and took him to
the scene. Only small quantity Of
the lumber was saved. No fire alarm
was sounded.
Mr.. Murray bought the barn the
past summer from Green & Green
wood and had torn down part of the
structure storing the lumber in the
part that remained standing. He in
tended to eventually raise the entire
structure and take the lumber away.
The owner stated yesterday that the
barn was insured when it was entire
but he did not know whether the in
surance remained in effect or not. He
paid $4,000 for the building, he said.

Following Clues
in Staying Unknown
Woman in New York

New York, Oct 23-Detective en-
gagged in solving a mysterious death
Of an unidentified woman, part of
whose body was found yesterday in a
pond. near Queens Boulevard, Long
Island City wrapped in white oil
cloth, energetically followed several
clues today.
Their first success was in finding
the manufacturer of the oil cloth
and through him it was hoped to
trace the dealer who might have sold
it to a possible slayer. A laundry
mark was another clew by which
the sleuths expected to identify the
victim.
Search was continued throughout
the day in the vicinity of the pond,
and Of all other swamps in the
neighborhood for the missing parts
of the body which had been cut in
two above the hips. The police also
were trying to find a man described
as a railroad employee who had
been seen gonig in the direction of
the pond carrying a bundle.
The records Of young women re-
ported missing for several months
past have been carefully checked with
the description of the dead woman,
police headquarters reported. but the
comparisons failed to aid the identi-
fication.

nations closer together and to ce-
ment their friendship and our

deep debt of gratitude for inviting
me to this country"

"As a great friend Of Belgium" he
added. American soldiers did much
for Belgium. American support In
every way made Belgium feel. in her
