A GRUESOME FIND.
New York, Jan. 26,
A body, said to be that of the son of a millionaire of Portland, Oregon, was found in a trunk at the railway station at Seattle. A baggage man noticed blood oozing from the trunk some days ago, but thought it contained a Christmas turkey. The body was cut to pieces and packed in salt. It is stated deceased acted as foreman for a Chinese laundry in Portland, and before the body was found a Chinaman committed suicide. It is unknown if this has any connection with the tragedy.
