MYSTERY LIKE THAT
OF GULDENSUPPE| IN
CASE IN THE BRONX
Body of Man Found in Oil
cloth Fits Head Discovered
on Sunday.
HUNT LEGS AND ARMS
Torso Wrapped in White Ma
terial Such as Used in Case
25 Years Ago.

Mrs. Marie Reglia and Mrs. Adelina
Spaducci of No. 1916 Belmont Avenue,
hunting for mushrooms in the Bronx
Botanical Gardens at noon to-day
came upon bundle wrapped in white
oilcloth and neatly tied with stout
twine wedged between two rocks in a
secluded clump of shrubbery near the
junction of Snake Road and Iris Gar
den Road. Their curiosity impelled
them to open the package and they
shook out on the ground the bloody
and decomposing torso of a man.
The women ran screaming for the
open and attracted the attention Of
Edward Carleman, a park foreman,
who notified the police. A prelim-
mary investigation established that
the torso Is that of the man whose
head was found wrapped in bed tick
ing in Pelham Parkway, about third
OF mile from the scene of to-day's
discovery on last Sunday morning.
The wrapping of the body in oil
cloth, the separation of the head, the
legs and the arms gives the latest
murder mystery a semblance to the
Guldensuppe case of a quarter Of a
century ago. A large force Of police
men and detectives started out this
afternoon to search Bronx Geological
and Botanical Gardens and Pelham
Bay Park for the legs and the arms of
the murdered man which, it is be-
lieved, will be found in that vicinity.
Assurance that the torso and the
head had been separated came from
Robert Stetler, the Bronx Morgue
keeper. He found that the neck of
the head fitted on the torso.
There were no wounds on the torso
except the marks where the knife had
been used in severing the limbs.
However, the head bears a deep cash
over the right eye and stab wound
behind the left ear.
The olcloth is white with q dec
grafton formed by blue square filled
with blue flowers. AS in the Gulden-

7 TOWNS BURNED,

5000 Made Homeless and
Property Loss Mounts
Into Millions.

NORTH BAY. Ont, Oct. s.
Between fifty and a hundred persons
were drowned at Haileybury, at least
thirty others have been burned to
death and seven towns already have
peen wiped out by forest fires raging
in Northern Ontario, the worst ever
experienced in the province.
Several other towns are il the path
of the conflagration, but d steady rain
began falling shortly after noon and
hopes are held that these will DC
saved Property loss already is
mounting into millions of dollars.
Wire communications have coli
lapsed over a fifty-mile area, and II
is feared the loss of life in other
towns not yet heard from will seri-
ously boost the total. All of the
towns swept are along the Timiskam-

One report brought by the refugees
was that scores had been injured and
several trampled to death when

Nobody was excited, nobody noisy.

stood around yawning, They had

looked like a great display of linen

a coat.

1t was / o'clock when the Yanks,

These things are known gener-
ally. What is here set down Is a
summary of other facts less
known but of equal importance in
the life Of this extraordinary
woman as revealing the philoso-
ply that animated her activity.
Elizabeth Cochran Seaman was
born in 1866 in Cochran's Mills.
Pa, the daughter Of a local Judge.
She was an unusually pretty girl,
and the beauty of her girlhood
never wholly left her counte-
nance. Among her intimates she
was called Pink" a pet name of
tribute to her fair complexion.
She was sixteen when by chance
she entered the newspaper field.
AS she described 1t to me with Q
laugh one evening:
DAUGHTER OF JUDGE.
"A Pittsburg newspaper came
to our house one Sunday with q
long story about the working con-
ditions under which men were en-
ployed In industry. The writer
seemed to think them unbearable.
/ wrote letter to the editor and
asked why he didn't look into tho
working conditions Of women in
our State at that time, and I sug-
gested that he would find much
more reason for Indignation. Soon
after he wrote back and asked
why I didn't do It myself. So I
went to the office and told him I
would.
1.-THE editor almost fell out of
his chair when he saw me. He
expected, he said, to find a big
raw-boned spinster instead of a
little girl in short skirts. But be-
fore he left I got an assignment
and / wrote stories right along.
Where are they? Lost forever,
I hope! Wouldn't you hate to run
across any of your own printed
effusions in the days of your
childhood. The stories attracted
a lot of attention, and did some
good, I like to believe, but they
must have been wosfully written.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1922-04-02

timely natural jealousy Of the
friends his wife made. 1t has been
often said. and almost as often be-
lieved. that Nelly BLY, married for
money and she never wasted time
denying 1t, except once when she
said:
II married for experience and
got moro experience than ex-
pected. I went into 1t a good deal
like an assignment, but 1t was a
mistake. That was one time where
my policy Of thinking out my own
assignments proved an error.
"A newspaper man should never
marry, and a newspaper woman
should put tho thought out Of her
head the moment she enters q city
room. For marriage takes some
thing away from the newspaper.
It takes time away; 1t takes
thought away-and a newspaper
demands all tho time and thought
that a person possesses. You
should give 1t everything or moth
ing. Newspaper work Is some
thing like a priesthood, that de-
mands celibacy AZ one of the sacri-
fees for the privilege Of the en-
trance"
Nelly Bly's idea Of q Newspaper
was not a thing Of paper and ink
turned out by huge presses, filled
with accounts of various events
and happenings Of the day. To her
1t was a mighty machine with
which to move the world; an in
strument to get things done. rather
than to tell what was done and
how II was done.
GOT HUSBANDS ESTATE.
A newspaper was force to start
activity, rather than q record Of
things that were started by others.
She was a born crusader. eager to
lead any movement for public benz
fit and quite willing to risk all she
possessed in the cause. With this
spirit Robert Seaman was far out
of sympathy. yet he loved her and
she gave him infinite rsspsct and

open affection throughout their life
together. When he died he left her
all his wealth, but she knew too
little about business a. II WIS
practiced by her enemies to long
retain It.
OFFERED CITY JOB.
Soon after Robert seaman's
death there was quiet but vigor-
Gus movement to make Nelly Bly,
q member of the mayors cabinet.
She wanted to be commissioner Of
street cleaning. and a powerful fac
ton Of the Democrati, crganiza-
ton in the city supported her
candidacy. Brooklyn. where tho
Iron Clad factories were in opera
ton, was staunch for her. but .
disruption in the city organization
prevented the appointment.
Suddenly she discovered that
wholeeal theft had been committed
in the Iron Clad company and the
American Steel Barrel Company,
which she developed from the first
named corporation. The organize
ton had betn undermined till only
a shell Of II remained. Forgery
and other crimes had all but wiped
out the financial assets. Mrs.
Seaman. then in sole charge with
scores Of insrbordinate employees
to face, fought to weather the gale
of adversely and fought with a fury
unparalleled In the New York
courts.
LOVED ANIMALS.
When she took charge Of tho
factory she rose at s every MORN
ing and worked until close to mid
night steadily. She learned every
phase OF manufacture. DEVELOPED
new patents. perfected tho steel
barrel 20 that her product became
one of the only two permitted by
tho Interstate Commerce Commits
sion to be used a. gasoline contain
ers In railroad transportation.
She directed the factories from .
room furnished with . desk. two
chairs and q fling case. The walls
ware bare and whitewasnsd and
