ficer OF the sixties. On the hilt,
heavily plated In gold. was deeply
engraved the name in old English
script: Jos. w. Morton"
Only the elaborate design Of the
sabre. more than three feet long
and Of the finest steel, with bands
of gold on the scabbard, indicated
that the rank OF the owner must
have been high. The sword. through
q strap which parted as oon as It
vas touched. was attached to the
body in the mud, now little more
than bones.
The discovery was made by p. w.
BrousSard, veteran of the river.
while he was s~alvaging a barge Of
coal which sank az the foot of the
city's principal business streets
more than three years ago. He de-
clared he had not seen the river at
a stage this low in 20 years. and
that the body and sword might new
er have been found had IL not been
for the abnormal shallowness OF the
Mississippi near the banks.
In the speculation about the Jos.
". Morton" and his blade. lying
deep under the swift Mississippi for
sixty years or more. the theory that
he was probably a member Of Ad-
miral Farragut's forces. which cap
tured Baton Rouge and fired the
capitol building in 1862 when the
federal navy sailed up the river,
predominated.
The body found today was left
undisturbed, but with the spot care
fully marked. on the possibility that
identity might be definitely estab-
lished.

GANDHI ASKS
ENGLISH PEACE
indian Dominion Status
Terms Set Forth In
Recent Letter

LONDON, Aug. .19.-tP-Reports
from India that the Mahatma
Gandhi had offered peace in his
letter to the viceroy Of Lord Irwin
and the British government will
pledge dominion status for India
at the forthcoming round table
conference today aroused deep in
terest in official quarters where
news Of major importance was ex-
pected to be announced within 40
hours.
After the conference Of last week
in the Yeroda Jail at Poona. the
leader of the civil di~sobedience
forces in India wrote a letter which
was supposed 10 embody the terms
upon which he would consent 70 a
cessation Of the activities of his
volunteers.
It was pointed out today that If
reports as TO the nature Of the Ma
hatma's peace offering we're true
they must have emanated from a
leak on the part OF some interested
party since Gandhis communica-
ton 10 The vicerpy was written IN
prison and was to be delivered only
today.
There was said to be a growing
feeling in exceptionally well-in-
formed quarters that big news"
from India could not be long de-
iayed. This was taken to mean
only that the Gandhi letter would
be published with Its assent or re-
fusal. The possibility that the let
ter would contain announcement OF
cessation of the non-co-operating
movement on the part Of the ma
tionalists received some credence.
