Ixu! B. Hail, who disappeared from ber homo In Madisonvlll lat Saturday night. The bodr waa found floating, by William OUrtthw, a ituftr. -who was ma kin him morning Rummnnlng to Wllger. a fireman In th Eden Park Pumping Station, they rowed out to the body, and 'towed It to Shore, Mrs.

Hall's hands were clasped tightly over her breast. The feature were plainly recognizable, and no marks of violence could he found: But In aplte of this there la still an element of mystery about her death. The watchmen 'at the park thought they heard screams from a point on the bank of the west reservoir. The body was found In the eastern barin. A high picket fence tit Iron surrounds the basin, and how a woman of Mrs.

Hell's slse rould have climbed this fence, without tearing her clothes or lacerntlng her body In any way Is puzzling to the police and Coroner. The "presence of an automobile near the scene, and tha fact thst the machine scudded rapidly away as the screams echoed on the still night air. Is a circumstance which will prohablv never bo explained. Shortly after the body was found the men found Mrs. Hall a shawl on a valve In the water.

Pinned, to the shawl was a note, which read "Am In the reservoir, live in Madisonvlll-. M. Is It Her The note was plainly written on a sheet Of white paper. Judging from the steady h.and With which the note was written. Jt Is highly improbable that It waa written In the park on the night of the tragedy.

Before rendering a verdict or suicide. Coroner Cameron will ask for specimens of (Mrs. Hall's writing, and compare It with the not found on the shawl. Louis B. Hall, husband of the dead woman, was In Ignorance of his wife's sudden disappearance until yesterday, when It was stated "by relatives that they had reached him In New York, and that he would be In this city to-day.

Mr. Hall has been traveling in the Eastern states for more thim a year. His eaact whereabouts Tiave not always been known to his wife. The separation seemed to prey on her mind, and she would hsve frequent spells of melancholia ss the result. When she -disappeared Saturday night her relatives made several attempts to rench Mr.

She then took a Madlsonville rsr and tried to get a transfer to tbe Eden Park car. but as -these transfers are not given on the Madlsonville line she was unsuccessful.

Got Off In tha Park. Phe took an EdenTsrk car and got off at the small viaduct spanning the main driveway In the park. From there It was but a short walk to the spot from which She took the fatal plunge. Ever since last Sunday the members of Jier family have been searching for Mrs. JIsll.

Her aged mother. Mrs. R. B. Moor, has been nearly frantic because of her daughter's disappearance.

It wns suspected that she had drowned herself In the reservoir even before It was positively proved that she had entered Kden Park, and the employes of the pumping station have ever since last Monday been watching for tbe body to come to the surface.
