Two I Bodies
In Water
Both Recovered Yester-
day, One Off Oalf Pasture.
and the Other Off Oompo
Beach—duo in Norwalk
.and Westport——One Iden-
tified as Bridgeport Man
The body of a drowned man. who is
presumed to belong in Bridgeport. was
found yesterday at Sprite island and
Calf Pasture Beach by George H.
Tooker. of 81 Woodward avenue. who
was fishing In that vicinity. The body
was towed to Gregory's Point. where
It was made fast to the wharf. and
Medical Examiner Huntington was
called. He immediately gave orders
for tllo body to be taken to the under-
taking rooms of G. 11. Raymond and
Son, in Norwalk. This was done alid
there the clothing was searched. A
number of things were found in the
pockets which may lead to the identifi—
cation of the bodY.
’I‘hc corpse had evidently been in the
water for some tlmc. bilt It was Im-
possible to tell how long. The face
and hand were badly damaged and had
the appearance of having been struck
by the propeller of a boat.
The hands also were gone. whether
from decomposition or from some oth-
er calise Is not known. The little hair
left on the head was black. The man
was clothed in a dark coat. light strip-
ed trousers, were practically new lace
shoes. a light colored flannel negligee
shirt. In his pockets were found a
blue handkerchief, a roll of bills a
slnall envelope containing fish books,
the envelope bearing the name of
“Smith. 35 Wall street. Bridgeport."
‘-ulso three time cards evidently of a
factory. bearing the date 0-20, or ’June
20. The body is still held at the mor-
gue. Superintendent Eugene Birming-
ham. of Bridgeport, was asked by a
Sentinel reporter this morning wheth-
er anyone had been reported as miss-
ilig from that city. He said that so far
as he knew there was no one answer-
ing the description missing, but he
would investigate:
There was a story in circulation
here this morning that the man was an
employe of the Locomobile Factory in
Bridgeport and that his name was
Cross. but no such facts had been com-
niunlcnled to the authorities here.
In view of the fact that four uniden-
tified bodies have been found here this
season. all the corpses appearing to
have been in the water for about the
same length of time an investigation
will probably be ordered by Coroner
Charles A. Doten. of Bridgeport. who
has been notified.
All unusually large number of bod-
ies of drowned persons has been found
in Connecticut waters during the past
three months. Besides the five bodies
taken from the Sound near South Nor-
walk, six have been taken Into Bridge“
port, three of these being identized,
two unidentified off Stamford. two at
New London, both being recognized
later. and one at Hartford Saturday
and another yesterday, besides bodies
found in inland waters at isolated
places. Most of the bodies found at
Sound ports undoubtedly came from
wrecks of vessels,‘ the G. M. Bralnerd,
which was lost off Milford. contribut-
ing five or six of the number.
The man found drowned at Calf Pas-
ture Beach yesterday has been Identi-
fied as Cross. of Bridgeport.
whose family reside in Boyertown.
Mass. Undertaker Raymond does
not remember the name of the man
who Identified the body nor did he as-
certain the name of the man who iden-
tified him. Two weeks ago yesterday
while the slower Martha's Vineyard
was taking an excursion to Pleasure
Beach a tag was seen towing a small
sailboat into the harbor. The boat had
upset in the sound and one of the party
had been drowned the others being
rescued.
A member of the party came to this
city this morning and Identifiedhhe re-
mains. They will probably be shipped
to Boyentovru. Mass. The estimates
of those who believed that the body
had been in the water for six months
were rather upset by the identification.

Late Saturday night or during the
Slitllll hours of Sunday morning. the
cafe of Michael Ilalchford, in Main
street, was entered by burglars. and a
small assortment of goods. including
live or six dollars in. c,liungo n bottlc
of win and a few packages of cigar-
ettes. were stolen.
How the thieves entered is a mys-
tery, though Mr. Rulchford is rather
of the opinion that they gained en-
trance by way of the front transom.
That. this theory is true seems hardly
possible at a place so near the corner
of Wall and Main street, where a po-
liceman and many other pcoplc. can bc
.‘ound at nearly any hour of the night.
The burglars departed by way of a
side door. Mr. R'llchl'ord is Dofillth

night, when he closed up his place of
business about ll o'clock. this place
