The body was found lying on its back with a terrible gash on the right side of the throat, A small silver-handled pen knife covered with blood, and a cane with a sil- er head, lay by its' side. There were no .evidences of decomposition, and the man; naaproqaofy oeen. aeaa Qnur iew nours. fD'4ssffita,. ajBeatjmit of darcassimere, and was appartntly that of a man about' thirty-five years of" age, of' rather small stature, with blue eyes, , light hair and mustache. In the pockets were found a handsome gold watch; about fifty dollars in money, a bank check-book and two pocket-handkerchiefs, but no ' let ters or papers nothing in fact that would give a clue to the stranger's identity but the , check-book. This was on the South Bend National Bank,. of South Bend, Ind,, and contained entries showing deposits Jin the name of L. W. Whitlow, to the amount of $2,800," against which there were checks amounting to $800. By order of the Coro ner, the "body was removed to a house near the ferry and a guard placed over it for the night The inquest will be held this morn ing. Chief of Police Brock, at the request of the Coroner, telegraphed to the bank at South Bend, Ind., a statement of the facts. Enquiry, at the hotels last night, afforded no information as to the deceased; but it was learned that a man. answering to the description of the stranger had stopped 'Wednesday- morning, about 7 o'clock, at the "Old Scarborough House, ".a restau, rant on Water. street kept by.Mr. D. A. Sebeek, and after getting a plate of oysters, walked. off but came back about dark in in the afternoon and . wanted a room.' The man, however, was apparently dement ed; said that persons were pursuing him, and talked in such a wild manner that the clerk was afraid to let him remain in the house over night, and advised him to seek lodgings elsewhere. The stranger then took his departure, leaving his overcoat which he asked the clerk to take care of. He had no baggage. Nothing further could be learned of the movements' of the stranger, but a rumor that he was seen upon the wharf yesterday morning., A reply to the telegram "sent to the offi cers of the bank at South Bend, Ind., will probably be received by the coroner to day when this mysterious tragedy may be un ravelled. ; Ponndlne a Pastor. The good people of the Fifth Street Methodist Church, moved and instigated by the spirit of benevolence, and with love "aforethought, did, on New Year's eve, most charitably pound their new pastor, Rev. D. H. TutUe, with many useful articles for the dining department, for which he thus returns thanks " 'Tis more blessed to? give than to receive. " May this truth be veri fied in this instance.
