Johns avenue, was buried Monday in the Mooney cemetery. The man had no relatives here, but through the effort of the police and the Canadian consul in Chicago a "brother was located in St. Johns, N. B.: The brother was notiâ€" fied that it would be well worth his while to come and identify the body, but he wrote that it win impossible for him to come. As it is reported that about $3,500 workman‘s compéenâ€" sation insurance is collectable by the heirs, it is probable that later they may attempt to claim: th¢e . money. Cook had discharge papers from the Canadian army, and shortly after his burial a message was received by the police from a veteran‘s post in Winâ€" nipeg, intuiring about the case, reâ€" port of which had been carried by press associations to Canadian newsâ€" papers. a | _A Buick coupe with license numâ€" ‘ber, 1035213, Illinois, was found in a ravine east. of â€" Ravina park last weekâ€"end. .
