5; FE STAERED AN LS AMUTSON Uutiicted Body Found fi Hud- son ftiversand Taken to Ho- licken Identified as that of ex- Chicago Saloon-Keeper. rit | iL f{dv. MONEY WITH WHICH TO BUY A PLACE HERE. He Left the Home of a Friend “fo Make a Purchase and Was Probably Slain for His Money. The mutilated body found In the Hud- gon River at Hoboken on Oct. 1 was Sdentified to-day as that of Nils Knut- 80, & Chitago saloonkeeper, who was In New York for the purpose of purchasing & business. John Bingston,,of No. 44 West One Hundred and Thirty-first bo, ge with whom Knudson was visit- ng, made the {dentification. ‘There ts little doubt that Knutson was murdered and that his body was thrown into the river after attempts had been made to so mutilate it that it ‘would be unrecognizable. It looks like another Gufllensuppe case. Knutson carried considerable money with him! He had been around the aity for some time seeking a g00d saloon leeation and in the course of his travels had-met some pretty tough characters in thé slums, Naturally, in his search for an available business he spent and dis- Played-a great deal of money and the impression was created among those he met that he carried a big bank roll. Went to Buy « Saloon, ‘He left his stopping place on Sept. 16, @aying that he was going to in @ ealoon that appeared to be a investment. That was the last him by Bingson. Fifteen days later his body, with the top of the head and the Yége out off, was found at Hoboken, County Physician Converse made an txamination, but has refused thus far to give out the conclusions he drew from it The police had come to believe that the vodx was that. of a member of the crew of one of the steamships docking in ‘Hoboken who had been drowned ie taking ‘a swim. The mutilation attributed to @ propeller or a pad- die wheel. ; N ess in Hoboken, Kingston says that Knutson coul@ ot have been swimming in the North River, and that he had no business in Hoboken. He was well dressed and it would have been impossible for a padi Wheel or propeller to have completely stripped him. His collar and the up- der part o. his shirt would at least have remained, for there are no marks Of-thjury about the upper part of the trunk oF on the neck. Undoubtedly Knutson was stripped de- fore his body was thrown itfto the river, and Bingston belleyes.that the men who f™urdered him chopped off hile legs and the top of bis head in the hope that he would not be recognized. Chief of Police Hayes, of Hoboken, has already started ‘to run down clues furnished by Bingeton, } Unfortunately, Bingston has no {nfor- mation that would lead the volice to where Knutson was ‘accustomed to ‘spending his time, ‘The man had been in New York since May. Ovoaslonally he spent two or three days at a stretch Away from the Bingston home. ‘On one Occasion after a tMp to Sweden he Stopped at the Stevens House, lower Broadway, and_th 4 hotel bome- where in the vicinity of the jVbite Star} dne pier to which he went o¢casjonally. He was aman of tremendous dtrength. ‘Ada A TAt my Each! “‘[PLAIN FRON' these goods exyerienced clerks. ve the new a un MAIL ORDERS ms SIXTH AVENUE, 21ST Price Sale of ! i SOLID GOLD.
