By United Press EVANSTON, 111., Oct. 2.—Authorities searched the list of missing men today in an effort to identify the body of a man found partially buried in the center of a corn field near this city. The body, discovered by a farmer when he noticed his collie dog making strange circles In the corn field, was badly decomposed. The face was scarred and distorted by shotgun fire. A rusty rifle was found near by. The only marks of Identification were an initial “D" on a penknife in the mqn’s pocket and the serial number of the rifle. Police, uncertain whether the man met death by accident while hunting or by assault, took the body to undertaking parlors and started Intensive Investigation. No Evanston men have been reported missing. When the body was found it was stretched out full length, face upward, arms lying closely at the side and feet together. A dozen loaded shells were near by. The man was well dressed, although the clothing was partially rotted by exposure. He was about five feet seven inches tall. Major Hites at First U. B.
