Ttie deacription tallie in many Hilnta, but the body bat not rat been positively Ideotilled by any ol Mr. Kyan't acipiainlancaa. j Coroner Flu lay held a poat mortem ex amination of the remain yeaterday after noon, but no declaion could be reached. With the exception ol the bat, the body found yeaterday la almost identical with the description of Kyan, who wal laat aaen In Oregon City Sunday morning;, when 1110 wa known to be in Ida pocket. Though Ityan't friend are on the look out for any trace of the miaeing farmer, and notllled the pollct Tuaaday evening, yet none of them bat appeared at the morgue. Until they do to the identity of the body will remain a myatery. At John Huiead waa panning along the aide ol hullivan't Oulch yeaterday morn ing at 0 o'clock, be aaw the body of man reclining againat the bank. Notic ing the peculiar attitude of the body, be made a curaory examination, and left under the belief that the man waa drunk. He notified Diatrict Olllcer Young, who quickly diacovarad that it waa corpae that waa dropped againat tbe bank. With bia handa tightly clutching tbe tuftt of graaa at bit aide, the un known man lay againat the (teep bank with bia feet up to the knee in the water of the muddy alough. There were no mark of violence upon the body. From the atitearance of the billaide it teemed probable that the man, in reeling home intoxicated, had alipped and (alien down the bank. Landing with bia feet in tbe water, be bad died partly from the chill and exposure and partially from alcohol iam. Another theory proounded it that the man wa BiiinlereJ by ttie uae of polaon ,M..,U, ..j ll8 mik. ,..!Bd in the peculiar position to disarm suspi !. "...,: , .,: "...;. cion. Die greatest setback to thil theory is that the handa ol the dead man were locked in a death grip uoii the tougli graases of the slough bank. Diatrict Ollicer Young believe that he lias seen the dead man about the city at interval for a long time, but is unable to give bis name. No one of exactly the tame description aa tbe man found in Sullivan's Gulch haa been repurted an missing. The body had evidently been on the bank but a few hours, ao that death bad not preceded thn finding of the corpae by many hours. Nothing wa found upon the body but a handkerchief and three lead pencil atutm. No marks of any description aided in the identification. The police are pur.xled at the Kyan disappearance cane. He wa known at a man who set dorn drank, and then never to excess. When be net a day for bit return home he waa invariably there on time. When ha did not return at the promised hour last Sunday, bis father-in-law, J. Slaugh ter, ol Mariuam, went at once to Oregon City. The young man bad been seen Sunday morning, and bad said that he would have to leave for home in the af ternoon. He bad placed bis horse ia tbe livery stable, but did not return for it. Me went to uregon uuy iroir, ins uome at Maiuam, Clackamaa County, four miles from Wilhoit Springs, for the pur pone of paying the last installment upon hia land. This was not paid, and Kyan was known to have at leant $110 upon bit person wnen be disappeared. 1IOI1V IS NOT TUAT OF BVAN. Ivan Dimick want to Portland yeater day morning to identify the body of tbe unknown man that waa found in Sulli van's Gulch. Mr. Dimick reports that the dead man is not the missing C. A.

Standing over him, with all the fierce pride of a victorious gladiator showing In every curve of uts gnsiening oouv the black thoroughbred trumpeted out a stentorian call of defiance and com mand.

It was for him to lead whither he chose, to pick the place and hour of grazing, the time for watering and bis to guard his com panions from all dangers. Aa for the buckskin stallion, there re mained for him the choice of humbiy following the new leader or of limping oft alone to try to raise a new band.
