Hirach, Attorney for the) \ Estate of the Silk Merchant Who | Leaped from High Bridge, Only q | Awaits Certain Formalities. Morris J. Hirsch, attorney for the es @ate of Adolphe Openhym, sald to-day that the reward of $5,000 would be paid to Capt. John Meehan, of the barge Ella Jane, who discovered the body of the ail merchant. “Did the letters found on Mr, Open- hym's body disclose any reason for his committing suicide?" the attorney was asked. “They were not reaily letters, but private papers of no moment and not bearing at all upon their owner's end. ‘The reward will be pald to Capt. Mee- han as soon as certain formalities have been complied with.” Qfr. Hirsch was reticent about the ease. He declined to say what he . Meant by ‘formalities with reference to the payment of the reward. Mr, Openhym leaped from High Bridge {nto the Harlem River on March 30, and, although hundreds of boatmen have @earched for the body, it did not come to the surface unt!l yesterday morning. Capt. Meehan is employed on the scow Bile Jane by the Health Department. Ge sleeys on board with his two sons. Rising early yesterday morning he| 4 walked around his craft, looking over the side into the water. Near the Stern he noticed a dark object bumping @gainst the boat and soon saw that it ‘was the body of a man. Identified by Letters, He called his eons, and when they Wolled the body over they were con- vinced that it was that of the missing merchant. Policeman Francis, of the West One Hundred and Fifty-second street station, was called and, searching ‘the body, he made the identification positive. In the pockets were letters @nd person! cards and a watch on which were engraved the initials of the owner, There was also $# in bills in the pockets, Representatives of the family went to the police station to which the body ‘was removed end Morris J. Hirsch, the personal representative of the firm, re- turned from Atlantic City last night and took oharge of the arrangements, - for the funeral. The body will not be buried until after a forma! inquest, although it is likely that no new ght ‘will be thrown upon the str: Leaped from High Adolphe. Openhym left home at No, 352 Riverside Drive. That morning he was with his family as usual, and, acording to their statements, the was apparently in his usual happy frame of mind, A few hours later a man answering I's description was geen to leap from High Bridge. Mr. Openhym’s hat and umbrella were found on the bridge, yet his family re- fused to believe he had taken his life. A reward of $1,000 was offered for the recovery of his body, and, as the days and weeks passed, this amount was falsed to 35,000. In the hope of gaining this reward, hundreds of divers and boatmen searcher ‘way either way from the bridge, Dyna- mite was exploded and cannons fired until old river men declared that no body could remain at the bottom. ‘How nearly some of these seacch- ers came to the body !s shown by the fact that a grappling-hook caught in the trousers and tore its way free without raising the body. Capt, Meehan can't decide what he will do with the reward, which Mr, Hirsch says will be paid to him at once: ‘The old seaman has been all over the world. He is more than seventy years old, and for sixty years he has followed ‘the sea. f Reward Valls in Good Handa, “This 1s about the first rood luck I ever had,” he said to-day. “I have seen about all of the sea I can, I guess, so Tu get me a little shack some place along the river ang settle down to enjoy That much)money 1s a fortune to an old man lke» It miedng/that ‘I can work when I feel Uke it ah@ smoke my pipe when I fee) inclined. @ little place where I can be near or river I'll be happy, I'll have and some fsh-nets and turn a few dollars that way when I want to,’’. ——————__— PRISONER TRIED TO SHOOT ROUNDSMAN.
