MURDER MYSTERY
Man's Body With Jaw Broken
Found in Willamette Near
Steel Bridge.
POLICE SUSPECT A CRIME
No Money Was Found in the Cloth
ing, and Nothing by Which
Identification Could Ba
Made Was Discovered
A murder mystery may develop over
the discovery of a body floating in the
Willamette Biver last night. When
taken to the establishment b Coroner
J. P. FInley, it was found that the
man's jaw-bone "was fractured, that
he possessed no identification papers
5and not a cent in money. The police
are assisting in a thorough investiga
tion, but as yet no clue as to the iden
tity of the man has been found.
Peter Johnson, W. C. Bender and
Special Policeman Laird, on duty at
the Steel bridge, saw the head of the
man in the water. He was floating
Blowly. A boat was secured from some
boys. and the body brought to shore
by means of a rope.
The police were notified, and Cap
tain Moore laid the case before Coro
ner FInley. The latter went to the
scene and took charge of the body. It
was found to be that of a man about
five feet five inches in height, with
dark hair and short mustache; attired
in gray coat and vest, dark trousers,
calico shirt, pink underclothing and
loggers' shoes.
From the general appearance of the
man it Is believed he was a logger, but
there was nothing on his person that
served in any way to identify him. He
was aged between 30 and 35 years. He
possessed a pocket-knife, a pocket
mirror, an empty purse and two hand
kerchiefs. "I am unable to say, after my in
vestigation, whether the man was mur
dered, committed suicide or was acci
dentally drowned" said Coroner Fin
ley. "The body had evidently been in
the water at least two weeks, and will
have to be burled early tomorrow
morning. I will retain the clothing
and what was found In the pockets.
This may serve to identify him. The
body will be placed in the cbunty bury-ing-ground."
The police look with suspicion upon
the broken jaw-bone and the fact that
the man possessed no money. They
claim these two facts point strongly to
foul play with robbery as the motive.
If such should be the case, whoever Is
guilty of the murder has had ample
time to get beyond the reach of the
local officials, and it is thought to be
extremely improbable that any one
will be brought to book for the
crime.
The officials hope for some one to
come forward today who will be able
to Identify the clothing of the un
known and assist in clearing up the
mystery.
