	CUT IN TWAIN

Was the Condition of the Body of Walter L. Boring Found on
Railroad track Walter L. Boring has been in the employ of the
belt railroad in the city of Chicago.  He came home recently
for a visit and last Monday morning about 2:30 A.M. his body
was found on the Big Four Track in the city cut in twain.  One
half of it was  on the inside and the other just outside the
track with face downward resting on a tie.  It is said that
about 20 cars passed over the body. It was also further
rumored that the body was cold and not more that a pint of
blood was to found upon the track where the accident occurred
and it was feared that his death was brought about through
foul play.  This idea appeared to have been dispelled later
from the fact that Coroner Parkinson and his jury after an all
day probing were unable to come  to any different verdict that
he came to his death by accident.
