The men had been cutting grass neaj. the point where the body was found and no ono was seen near the spot throughout tho afternoon. This morning he set his crew to work on the south side of the track. About 10 o'clock ono of the section hands yelled that he had found tho i body of a dead man. No one was allowed to touch It and tho deputy -'coroner, Perl, was sent for, but on j account of taking the wrong road did J not arrive In time to enable full In-. formation being secured Ho was probably struck by tho cow catcher of a locomotive, as tho slash ed shoe shows that he was struck In a standing position. Ills feet were no doubt thrown from under him nnd he crashed against tho body of the locomotive, getting tho grease over his clothes from that source.
