Beyond this he would make no COM

Officials of the cemetery. situated at
Cypress Hills, admitted that govern

was that of Jones. On reliable au-
tho-ity. however, it was learned that
sailor named Jones was buried in
the cemetery, and that inquiry had con-
cerned his resting place.
No Body Disinterred.
Cemetery officials also asserted that
no body had been disinterred within the
last four months. and that no order for
disinterment recently had been served
upon them. To open a grave in the
national cemetery. an order signed by
a federal judge is necessary.
