MAN'S BODY FOUND.
(Contlnc from race 1.)
Wednesday night, according to a
statement made by II. Zludler, a
track foreman, tho track was clear at
6 o'clock Wednesday evening. 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-.

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. Tho
body would probably havo lain there
for days before dlsrovored If tho
work of clearing' tho right of way
had not boon In progress. No blame
