Jan. 2—Examination early today of the torso of the hu- man body discovered last night im- bedded in the ice in a marsh near Coney Island, led the police to be- lieve it was that of a man. The torso was wrapped in two burlap bags and patrolmen and detectives searched all night in the Long Island meadow where the two bundles were found, in the hope of locating the missing head and parts of the body, so that the identity of the suppasedly murdered man might be established. The discovery of the bags was madn a boy who was passing near the spot. The boy led a detective to the place, who ripped open the exposed top of ane of the bags. It contained the upper part of a human body from which the arms had been removed. Lower varts of the torso were in the second bag. by Sun and Moon Ointment.

Jan. 2.—A against ‘‘the ambulance trust” so-called by District Attorney Martin of the Bronx, was begun yes- terday by the arrest of Dennis Mur- ray, foreman of linemen for the New York, New Haven and Hartford rail- road, at his home in Bridgeport, Conn., on a warrant charging per- jury. He was subsequently released on $7,500 bail by Judge Louis D. Gibbs of the Bronx county court. A confession obtained from Mur- ray according to the police, and backed by other evidence, it is al- leged, revealed that an organization of influential lawyers exists for the purpose of suing large corporations, particularly the ‘“New Haven' road, for slight or imaginary injuries in accident cases. The members of the “trust,” District Attorney Martin said, generally have settled the cases out of court for large damages, 50 per cent. of which invariably went to the law- yers. campaign cnasers’ New York, Indictments Against Lawyers. The district attorney expressed the | belief that when the Bronx county grand jury reconvenes next week, in- dictments will be handed down, charging certain lawyers, who have been prominent in these accident cases, This jury found indictments Thurs- day against Murray and another man who has not yet been arrested. Mr. Martin expects to prove the ex- istence of a well organized system with an agent in every town, he said. A member of the legal department of the “New Haven' road, who appeared before the Bronx county grand jury vesterday, before the railroad came under its present management it was mulcted of large sums by settlements obtained thfough manufactured evidence and that the Westchester county grand jury recently handed up indictments in connection with the matter. Testimony at Inquest. The alleged perjury in Murray’'s case concerned his testimony at a cor- oner's inquest a year aga regarding the death of James Fletcher, who had been accidentally electrocuted. Mur- ray, who was Fletcher's foreman, said to have testified that although it was his custom to warn the men daily against the wires, he failed to do of the accident and that he toid Fletcher that the wire which caused his death was dead, as he believed it was not charged at the time.

FARMER’S REWARD IN PRODUCTS FURNISHED Submite . Report on Results of Probe Con- cerning Farmer's Income, Washington, Jan. 2. —~Rewards of & farmer are measured in the products his farm furnishes him direetly rath- er than in dollars and cents, accord- ing to the department of agriculture | today in a statement on the results of an investigation concerning the farm- er’s income. The average farmer receives little more money for his vear's work than he would be paid {f he hired himself out as a farm hand, the investigation shows. In other words, though he is business for himself, the average farmer gets Jittle or no money reward for his labors, and the risk and re- sponsibility he has assumed. The average value of the chief ne- cessities of life—food, fuel, oil and shelter—used each year by the farm family, was $595.08. Of these necessi- ties, estimated in money, the portion contributed directly by the farm was $421.17, leaving necessities to the value of $173.91 to be purchased by the farmer. Of the food consumed 63 per cent. was furnished by the farm, which va- ries considerably in different sections 1t was greatest in North Carolina, where farms supplied 82.3 per ecent of the food consumed, while the av- erage in New York was only 50.4. In view of the presént economic crisis in the south, the department | points out, this factiis regarded as of particular significance since it dem- | onstrates the extent to which, with a proper system of agriculture, south- ern farms could be made self-sustain- ing. 290,192,000 POUNDS Of Wool Produced in United States During 1911, Jan. 2.—Wool States in pounds, according the bureau of department of produc- 1914 to- Washington tion of the United 290,192,000 to estimates today by crop estimates of the agriculture, This is about 6,000,000 pounds Jless than that of 1913 estimated by the National Association of Wool Manufacturers The estimate of wool production i the first ever the department of agriculture FAGE DISFIGURED WITH ECZEN Itching and Burning So Scratched and Irritated.
