San Antonia, Texas, Sept 25. –
Parts of SkeletonsSan Antonio, Texas, Sept. 25 – Parts of skeletons, thought to belong to prehistoric man, were brought to light a few days ago by workmen digging gravel in one of the municipal gravel pits north of San Pedro park. The pit in question is situated against the side of a hill, and several small caves have already been laid bare by the removal of gravel. In none of them, however, had anything been found. The geological nature of the hill is of the upper cretaceous, consisting of white, soft limestone, a material especially favorable to the forming of caves by the action of water.  San Antonio, Texas. Sept. 25.
