Ten men were- killed as the result of
the collapse of a bridge of tbe Nickel

while heavily loaded cars were Handing

were killed sod a number of others

Tbe bodt, found io tbe Connecticut
off Vernon two weeks ago tumor
low, was eibumeil at Hins
as ib vteunesnay afternoon on
a permit from Concord aod pos
uiveiv luenimen a that of Janus
J Uriluo of llrattlebnro. wbo dis.-ip
peared the Tuesdav oigbt before. Tbe
evidarces of ideotity as gisea Tues
day left little chance for aouht. The
remains were but a black and msgntty
mass so that it wis impossible to dis
tinguish much of the features, or the
different tattoo marks oo boiv. But.
in addition to tbe pomtg enumerated
Tuesday, there was a semi circular
bald spot on Ue heal correspnediog
to firiffio's, tbe clothes were tne same
as be was known to have bad, and a
peculiar little pocket oo the outside
of the coat made tbis all the more
positive. Ths body- measured 5 feet
o'a .:cbes in lengto instead of 0 feet
7. as h'tst reported. It was so badly
bloated of course that tbete as no
' of reconciling the discrenane of
Griffin's weight, almut 130 lbs with
that reported of this body, 150 to 100.
Such examination as Dr Coulazd
was able to make confirmed Cr.der-
taker Wetherliee's opinion that there
were no signs of violence. There was
a spot r.t-ar each temple where the
tt sh waa disintegrated or fallen away
more than elsewhere, that have given
rise to fresh rumors of bullet bnle9,
but the doctor, examining with a
gloved ficger, found that there was no
fracture of tte skull.
Tbera was no autopsy to Cetfrmitic
whether death was bv drowning or
the body throwD into tbe water after

a flotation of a cewly r! rowed man
would be prssib'e io rapids like those
by Ko-Jt s islam! but getting belnw
there, it would icevit-ably go to tbe
bottom. For a good share tf tbe dis
tance the? rest of tbe wav there is
not current er.oush to float it a rod.
The spec! tic gravity of u drowned
body is enough greater than that
of water so that it goes to tte
bottom much like n stone and it re
mains there until in the process of
decomposition gases form and Moat
irg reachrs a point where it t ecotre?
ligoter tnan tae water and it rises.
Tnen it remains on tbe surface until
disintegration begins, and gases es
cape ween it sicks to
the bottom again for gouL
The body, judging from the way it
shot to tbe surface wben touched by
tbe diver, bad just reached tbe first
stage and was oo tba point of rising.
There is not one chacce io a million
that if it bait sunk and risen here it
could bave floated H.ere ard I e sunk
again. Tbis oce chance is that it
floated against aod became entangled
with some heavy object just on the
point of sinking, that carried tbe
body down with it. But a decisive
difficulty with such a theory is one of
time. It ib r.markabla tbat tbe body
ebould rise at all io tbe fourdsys since
be waa known to be alive, and it is
eimply impossible that it crtuld bave
