Considerable excitement was created at the ruins of the burned Stumph building between 10 and 11 o'clock this morning by the discovery of what were believed to be portions of a woman's body. Workmen engaged in removing the debris uncovered a pair of slippers filled with what they thought was charred human flesh, and im- mediately afterward found an object which they were sure was part of a woman's foot. Then jhe telephone wires got hot. The health office was communicated with, and instantly a message was flashed from that department to Lieut. Teeple of the second precinct to send an officer to in- vestigate the affair preliminary to Dr. Woodward's arrival at the station. Sergt. Kaucher was detailed for the duty, and when he arrived at the ruins he found a large crowd standing around and gazing with open-mouthed wonder at the ghastly find, while many people who reside in the neighborhood shock their heads sagely and reminded each other that they had said last Monday that they were sure some poor women had been killed in the catastrophe. Sergt.
