WILLMM M'BROOM IS FOUND DEAD

Coroner Swantz States Tinner Died of Natural Causes Indications Are Man Died Several Days Ago.

The decomposed body of William Oliver McHroo-n, a tinner who was formerly in the employ of several local concerns, was found in the old Lipman barn, in the rear of Harper ct., at 3:2 0 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. H. F. Armstrong. 735 S. Bronson st., and J. F. Zimmer, 62 4 Vistula av., who found the body, called the police ambulance, which carried the body to the Yerrick morgue. Coroner Swantz. who was called by the police department, stated that death was due to natural causes, and that there was no possibility of murder or suicide. From all appearances, McHroom had been dead for several days when found, although residents of the vicinity stated that they thought they saw McHroom on Vistula av. .Sunday afternoon. The theory is that McHroom was taken suddenly ill while near the barn, death coming before he could secure aid. McHroom was horn in Plymouth on Nov. S, 1S60. and was 5 4 years seven months old. He came here from Plymouth about 32 years ago. working here as a tinner up until shortly before the time of his death. He is survived hy his mother, Mrs. Anna A.

LONDON, June 16. For more than a month the operations of the French forces to the north and south of Wras and between the Aisne and the Oise rivers, have met with uninterrupted success. These activities extended over a wide front and involved brigades and divisions. As many as 2.000 and sometime? 3.000 Oct .nans have been killed in a day's lighting. This blanket statement, summarizing the results of the terrific engagements was issued this afternoon in Paris in reply to German claims that the successes of the French had been purely local and their warfare of a guerilla nature. Coming down to the lighting of the moment the midnight communique from Paris chronicles the repulse of German counter-attacks in infantry actions of local character on the sectors of Lorette and Xeuville, north of Arra and at Toutvent farm to the south of this key position. The attacks were accompanied by violent artillery fighting which still continues. Herlin ItcjKirts Defeat. The Herlin report says a second perious defeat was suffered by the French during yesterday in an attempt to break through the German line on the section extending northward from Arras ns far as Eleven.
