BODY OF SPOKANE
13
Mrs. Norton Will Sing.
Announcement was m;ulr- this after
noon of a recital to be given in tin
Spokane, Wash., May 26. The theo
ry of the Spokane police, that a well
organized gang is using the river as a
means of disposing of their victims
after robbng them and then murder
ing them, Is born out by the finding
of the body of Patrick Corrlgan,
vhoe mysterious disappearance at
Spokane some months ago puzzled the
police of many cities. Recently the
river, has yielded several corpses
whose condition pointed irrefutably
to foul play.
The body of Patrick Corrlgan, a
Wisconsin farmer, who disappeared
mysteriously over two months ago
with considerable money on his per
son, was raised from the river last
night while the police were dyna
miting to bring up the bodies of A.
W. Duncan . and his 5-year-old son,
who capsized from a boat yesterday.
There Is an ugly wound on the top of
Corrigan's head; the skull bears a
fracture the size of a dollar. He la
believed to have been murdered, rob
bed and then thrown Into the river.
Corrigan's valuable gold watch and
chain, about $50 in cash, two drafts
for large amounts and an expensive
new overcoat are gone. The murder,
nor even death theory was never
formed by Mrs. H, Miller of Spokane,
Corrigan's sister. She posted a reward
of $300 for his apprehension, believ
ing him temporarly deranged and
wandering about the country. The
search extended to Portland, Seattle
and San Francisco.
Corrigan's Body Identified.
Corrigan's body was positively Iden
tified by his brother-in-law, Miller, a
local fireman.
Nearly $10,000 belonging to Corrl
gan was deposited In Spokane banks.
He had sold a big farm In Wisconsin
Just before coming here.
As the result of the same blasting
the body of unknown laboring man
came to the surface this morning, be
lieved to be the man who Jumped
from the Great Northern bridge, after
a protracted spree three weeks ago.

sured, and with plenty of rain the
crop will be a bumper.
McManus says the difference In the
appearance of the wheat fields In the
vicinity of the Rock since yesterday
noon Is little short of marvelous, and
he believes that even those persons
who were compelled to reseed their
barley this spring will reap a fair
yield. This had been given up en
tirely by most of the farmers.
The total rainfall for the month at
that point is now one Inch, while in
Pendleton it has only been little more
than half an inch. The total rainfall
for the rainy season Is still about
seven Inches short, but as May and
June are always considered the rainy
months In this county It is possible
that the deficiency may yet bo made
up. v
