first found and has on tho the skull patches of black hair and on the lip the scraggy ceiri remains pans ot of a black moustache of considerable importance in the developments of the entire case is tite the result of the autopsy on the body of Heig eloin as announced by meyer today the chief pecullar peculiarity it of the cadaver he said is its y immense size it is so large that no ordinary man or woman could handle it alone the mutilation idof is of the ilic same game character as aa that on the other corpses although the tha freshness of this specimen reveals details which were not forthcoming so far as the rest of the bodies are concerned the dismemberment ent was the work of an expert the legs had been severed above the knee joints with straight clean cuts both of the shoulders had been disarticulated although why is a question to my mind it if the person who cut up the body dislocated the shoulders tor for the sake of gaining space apace in some receptacle the work might have had an object as a good two inches would have been saved the head had bad been cut off the work on this showing also the lund hand of a person familiar with anatomy the most startling aspect of the body was its freshness the intestines were e perfect and without pronounced signs of collapse the skin was in good condition there were no signs that an embalming fluid had been used the lungs being clean and healthy and tho the interior organs generally showing not a particle of change the body looked as it if the man might have died yesterday dr meyer also said that he was of the firm conviction that all the bodies had been out cut up by the same man in each case the legs had been severed revered at practically the same point abo knee the heads had been cut away in an almost similar fashion lind and the wrappings which clung to the several corpses were of the same material heavy gunny Backing sacking mostly digging on tho premises prem iBes which have already given up nine corpses is on the she sheriffs rift S program program for tomorrow the barnyard which has been explored with considerable c 0 nelder a ble thoroughness will be abandoned for the time being the searchers having planned to explore the ground nearer the house A patch of turf close cloge to a lilac bus c in the dooryard gives favl evidence of having been disturbed recently and alid it will bo the firse object of the efforts to disc discover over further bodies it is the sheriffs intention not to neglect any portion of the establishment which may possibly hide further tragedies it is likely that chat the cement floor of the cellar will bo be torn up and that the slope leading to the barns at i the rear will be prospected |
