Tho discovery of the body of an un- identified boy, apparently about twelve years of age, In a pile of waste paper on the Joy line pler, foot of Catharine street and the Hast River, early this morning, has given the police a new murder mystery to solve. The circumstances surrounding the case suggested that the boy was mur- dered elsewherg, and that ‘the body was brought to the pler some time dur- Ing the night and hastily hidden in the| pile of paper and under a tarpaulin, When the body was found it was lying on the right side, the right hand being under the cheek ‘and: the left hand -be- ing thrown across the chest, as though the boy had lain down there to sleep. Over the tarpaulin were three heavy wooden beams which had been taken from a pile of timber a few foet qway. ‘The dox's features indicate Irish parentage. He was poorly dressed, the clothing consisting of a blue and white striped shirt, light striped knee-pants, lace shoes, black stockings and flanne, under-drawers, He wore no undershirt and his shirt was unbuttoned, exposing his chest. ‘The front of the body w: dlack and blue and blood had been’ flowing from the nostrils. Side of Face Pushed In. The side of the face lying on the ground was slightly pushed In, evidently from the weight of the beams, and there were several bruises on the right side. The boy apparently was accus- tomed to sleeping in the open air, He seemed to be an ordinary street arab, ‘That the body had not been there the night before was proved by the state- ments of the Joy Ine officials on the bier, On Saturday the Old Dominion, of the Joy line, sailed with a cargo of waste’ paper. Some of the scraps of this had been blown about the pier and had been collected by the workmen and placed in a pile a Uttle to one side of the ticket office. This had been covered with a tarpaulin to keep {{ from blowing about, ‘The pler is being replanked, and a pile of timber which Js being used for this purpose stood a few feet away, This timber had only been piled there Satur- day and had not been moved yesterday. This morning when the diecovery of the body was made three of the heay, pieces of the thaber had been thrown across the tarpaulin under which the body was found. ‘The discovery wa%’ made by James Cunningham and John Campbell, who reached the pler at about 5.9 o'clock and started to replace the timber and remove the paper, On finding the body they at once notified the police, and trolman Timothy Murphy, of the Madison street station, sent in an am- bulance call, 6 Dr. Emily Dunning, of the Gouver- neur Hospital, came with the amuu- Jance, and after a careful examination of the body pronounced It a-case of murder, Thinks Death Accidental, The body was taken to the Madison street station and held there for identl- fication. Precinct Detectives MoGee and MacDonald were detatled on the case but could find no clue that carried out the murder theory advanced by Ambu- lance Surgeon Emily Dunning, According to thelr theory the boy haa gone to sleep under the tarpaulin and had been Killed by the welsit the beams, which ome person or persons had thrown on the pile not knowing the boy was underneath ‘At the station the boy was recognized by other boys In the nelghborhvod as a walt who go'd papers, ran errands ang hayed along tie water trout, ‘To the other boys in the district he was knows by the soubriquet of “Bum Zugene Winters. of strect, who has several medals for suv- ing lives, thought the body was that of Tony Loncs, whom ne had onve rescind from the river, ‘Tis was found to be untrue, wo over. bont BECAUSE SHE WAS TOO ILL TO AC [epee er ae “THE WORLD: MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 28, 1903.

Edward Bingley returned for the baby and managed to get back to the window and hand the little one to his brother, He could résist the choking smoke no longer, and fell unconscious inside the window in the room, There he was found by Policeman Carey and he was taken to the street, where hu wus re vived.

He returned to the station plat- form to give them the full cordiality of his mighty grasp. With a quick word of recognition here and there he told them all that he hud enjoyed his vacation to the full and was in fine shape for the work of the year at Washington, The special ttain consisted of a pri- vate car, a baggage car and engine No. 81. At Long Island City the Secret Service men kept a close watch on the people who gathered to see the presi- dential party. ‘The President and party proceeded to the carriages that awalted their use on Borden avenue, directly north of the station. In the first, an open barouche, Mr. Roosevelt, accompanied by Secre- tary Loeb and Commissloner of Police Greene, took their places. A mounted policeman rode in front and one on elther side acted as an equestrian body guard. Following the Presidential carrlage was one containing the Se- cret Service agents. Then came a hansom occupied by Detectives Down- Ing and Kensler, headquarters men. Five carriages brought up the rear. In them were Mrs. Roosevelt and the chil- dren and thelr attendants. A_ truck piled high with barvage made the tail of the procession. Called for Cheers for “Teddy.” When the President entered his car- riage some one called for three cheers and a meagre round of applause went up Then a loiterer at the station join- ing the crowd from across the street yelled: “Three cheers for Teddy.” The President appearcd to be dis- pleased, but smiled at the cheering that followed, ‘Then a ragged chap gave a wild yell of delight and called for some more cheers for “the President of the United States.” ‘The party was ferried across the river on the Southampton, which was reserved exclusively for the President and suite. From the ferry the procession moved across Thirty-second street to Fifth avenue, A few stragglers, hearing that the President and party would pass, held places along the curb.
