As yet no trace has been found of tho body of Sigbert Martin, the San Jose lad who was drowned in the Bay yesterday afternoon. Marshal Car ter has had a force of men dragging the Bay near where Martin went down, but their effoVts have been in vain. Owing to the strong ebb tide at the time of the accident, it is like ly that the body was carried a con siderable distance, and consequently it will be difficult to find it until it floats. This morning the storm inter fered wi.h the searchers' work. A touch of pathos was added to the tragedy this morning when Marshal Carter received an answer to the tele gram he sent last evening to San Jose to tho address given in a note book found among Martin's effects. The answer indicates that Martin was travelling under an assumed name. His description tallies exactly with the one in the following telegram: "J. W. Carter, City Marshal: I have son by name of Egbert Marlon Hirschy and most likely is my son ... d Is supposed to be in that locality, riease telegraph by night letter full particulars. His description is as follows: Height, five feel, nine inches; hair, brown; bluish gray eyes, and slender. Have his friends write. Mrs. Etta Hirschy.'.' HOOD IS AT EUGENE. Southern .
