Jury Has Not Decided On Verdict In Death Of Seymour Swauger
Pendleton,Or.,Oct.29-(Special)- The Coroner's jury has not yet given a verdict 
in the case of Seymour Swauger,who was run over by an O.R.&N. train near North 
Fork a week ago.All the engineers on the run on th eline in Eastern Oregon who 
have been questioned seem to know nothing of the case. Although it is known 
that Swauger ws run over by a train,there are mysterious features connected 
with his death.
The victom's shoes were found a short distance from the body and were 
perfectly intact,while the man's feet were mashed into a pulp. The jury will 
hold a final session Monday,when an effort will be made to clear up the case. 
Officers suspect that Swauger met with foul play and that he bdy was thrown on 
the track byhis assaiants.
