LYON NOW BELIEVES
 DEATH ACCIDENTAL
(Continusd from First Pase)

Tn case the SKULL had oeeh Ifdc- tured by blow from train 1t would have shown number of radiating fractures. according to the physician, which was not the case in this instance. The injury showed a wound in the scalp which extended several inches in length, while the actual fracture was somewhat small CT. The fracture resembled crush ed spot more than break with the spider-like radiations.
 Chief Hart assigned Sergeant Mo- Cue to take charge of the case. The chief detective sergeant with sever al men conducted 8 subsequent in vestigation Saturday afternoon after the body had been removed to the undertaking establishment of stephen Roper, city undertaken. Dolan took finger prints of the corpse and these with photograph taken at the hospital were sent to the United States bureau of identifica- tion at Washington, in an effort to learn his identity.
 Later Sergeant McCue and Dr. Lyon inspected the railroad tracks in the vicinity where the body was found and came to the conclusion that the fatal injury was caused by a fall onto a switch. They did not explain how the man received the ! impetus which might have caused such a tremendous blow, since his i body failed to show evidences of | having been struck by train.
 There was slight abrasion on the 1 right side, not enough to cause a | serious injury. How he could have been struck on the right side and his skull fractured by striking an ob- ject on the left side by train going east when he was found between the ! east and west bound tracks has not been explained. Neither has it been stated whether or not the abrasion on the right side could have come from a blow hard enough to knock
 a man down.
 The alcoholic stomach would bear
 out the belief that there was a fain1
 suspicion of alcohol on his breatt
 the night he was taken to the hos
 pital,
 Saturday evening after the inves
 tigation, Dr. Lyon stated that Tt Il
 safe to say it was not murder.
 Further inquiries were referred t
 Sergeant McCue. The chief detec
 tive sergeant reported that after :
 thorough investigation he was satis
 fled that he was ready to accept tn
 theory that the man met his deatl
 by falling onto 8 knuckle in
 switch on the railroad tracks. H
 said he did not believe 1t was mur
 der and could find no evidence o
 murder.
 Another complication develope' | Saturday night, according t , Undertaken Roper. who did no know in which cemetery to bury tn body, inasmuch as there was noth ing to indicate his religious or racia affiliations. This morning he state ) the body would be buried this after |. noon at St. Mary's cemetery. . Efforts to learn the identity of tn
 man have proved unsuccessful.
 grocery hook. with items written i Polish and no names written there in. is the only thing found on tn body of the man and Detectiv Thomas J. Feeney has canvasse practically all of the Polish grocer stores in the city in an unsuccessful effort to get someone to identify tn
 book The possession of grocer,
 book points to the fact that tn
 dead man may have been famil,
 man. The wearing of rubber boot
 might indicate that he was farm
 CT. Had he been the head of Polish family whose members live, at some isolated spot and could no or did not read newspapers, the fail
 ure to identify him might be ex plained.
 Although taking every step l. prove that their assumptions ar
 correct, the police have practicall, decided that the man was not Mix Catalina. wanted for murder il
 Frankfort. N. Y. His height of fiv
 feet 10 inches seems to overshadov other remarkable resemblances, al though the fact that he is not Cata limo has not yet been fully establish
