BULLET RIDDLED BODY of White Man Found in Nicaragua Causes Spoculation as to Identity Managua, Nicaragua, Sept. 27 P —Investigation is being made into the identity of the body of a wtite man with three bullet holes in the baek of is head who recently \as found at Waspuk in the Coco river. It is believed that the body may be that of George B. Marsha.l of New York, assistant manager of the La Luz Y Los Angeles gold mine, an American-owned property in castern Nicaragua. Marshall was captured last April by followers of the rebel leader 8andino when the La Luz mine was looted and destroyed. Three rings were found ~n the man's fingers, but the condition of the body was such that identifica- tion was imppssible. The fate of George B. Marshall has been a mystery since shortly after the La Luz raid on April 12, First reports after the raid were that Mr. Marshall had been killed, but later advices indicated that he was still alive, but was being held by the raiders. The last definite word was on Aprli 27 when reports were received that he was being well cared for, Nothing definite concerning his fate has been received since th n although as late us June 17 he was reported to be safe. Marshall was born and rear:d in New York «nd studied at the Michigan 8chool of Mines before entering mining work |in Central America. His mother lives in New York.

Rome, Sept. 27 (M—The declara- tion that many charlatans have been developing so-called “dopes” which are added to gasoline in order to reduce the velocity of combustion s0 as to remove “knocks” was con- tained in a paper by Dr. Gustave Eg- loff of the American Chemical so- ciety presented before the world mo- tor transport congress today. Dr. Egloff, who has been attend- ing the world power cunference in England, was not present, his paper being read for him. “In the United States,” the paper ! said. “large sums have been expend- ed In an endeavor to commercialize | dopea and a eollection of more than 200 samples made in the open mar- ago.
