The body of Carl Hodes, the saloonkeeper, who disappeared last Saturday, was found about 300 yards from Willamette Falls
Station, West Oregon City, at 4 PM. today. A roll of money and his gold watch were found on the body, which indicates that he
committed suicide, but the authorities have been unable to find a motive if he ended his own life. Hodes was happily married and
had five children, on, an infant three months old.

The body was almost unrecognizable. A wound made by a knife was found under the chin. Blood on the shirt indicated that
Hodes had walked some distance after inflicting the wound. The body was discovered by Frank Snow, a surveyor employed by the
Portland, Eugene & Eastern Railway Company, and Coroner Wilson was immediately notified. An inquest probably be held tomorrow.
Hodes paid $1800 for a half interest in a saloon the day before he disappeared. He also was interested in another saloon in this
city. He sustained an injury on his head several weeks ago by falling on the sidewalk and friends think this might have affected
his mind.
