Roberts Manufacturing Company, was | passing through the park when he saw | the body hanging from the limb of a tree. | Eoright says he examined the body and | found that life was extinct. Enright then notified Andrew Smith, who is employed at St Francis Girls’ Directory, and Smith immediately telephoned to the Park Po- Jice Station and Morgue. Officers Rourke and Hering responded, and the body was taken down. Fussengger took his own life by stran- the gulaticn.

An attempt was made on Sunday night to steal 2 stack of rifies from the army transport Sherman. The weapons were thrown on the dock and probably would have been removed had not the noise of thelr fall aroused the night watchman. An investigation revealed the rifles on the dock tied up all ready for convenient transportation, but on board every- body was calmly sleeping. The thief is sup- posad to be a member of the transport’s crew, but nobody in particularis suspected. e L Afon Alaw Was Lucky.

Red Top Club Dry Extra Dry Brut LUTGEN BEATEN BY SEA CAPTAIN Strother of the Walker Objects to Music Hummed. Commercial Travelers After the License of the Irate Mariner. The story of an outrage aileged to have been committed on board the river steam- er T. C. Walker on November 22 will be investigated by the United States In- spectors of Steam Vessels. The com- plainant is C. J. Lutgen, a drummer for J. A. Folger & Co., who charges Cap- tain Strother of that steambogt with brutal conduct. Mr. Lutgen’s story as told to Customs Collector Stratton is that on the date mentioned he and several other commer- clal travelers were eating in the dining saloon and one of the party began hum- ming a tune. There was no disturbance whatever,” but Captain Strother came in, and in domineering and insulting man- ner said that he would not allow them to raise Tartarus on his ship. Mr. Lut- | gen asked the captain what he meant and the captain, who appeared to have become infuriated, caught Lu:igen by the throat and proceeded to beat him . un- mercifully. 'First Mate Swift pulled the angry skipper away from his bleeding victim. Both of Lutgen's eyes were blackened and gpe of them cut. His left cheek and jaw ‘were badly cut and Mr. Lutgen felt for a time as though his jaw had been broken. The witnesses to the beating were J. C. Lutgen of Abner-Doble Company, F. T. Fowdery and William Knight of the Gen- eral Electric Company and L. C. Sey- mour, who has an office in the Parrott building. At Collector Stratton’s request Mr. Lut- gen told his story to the United States Inspectors, Captains O. F. Bolles and John K. Bulger, and they promised that they would order an investigation. Charges have able result his license will be taken away day. SUES SIMON NEWMAN John P. Lassing Alleges His Busi- ness Managers Cheated ‘Tim. John P.
