« “Big Tim's” mental disorder hap taken ~ ____THE EVENING WORLD, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1912. STIVERS ED BUTDOGTORKOPES | ‘BRMGS SOQETY HEL GET WELL) TODINGY COURT Congressman-Elect Has Been Improving in a Sanitarium During Last Two Weeks. FRIENDS CAN’T SEE HIM. Sight of Them Has a Disturb- ing Effect, and None Knows Where He Is. ‘The report that Congreseman-elect “Rig Tim” Sullivan t# close to death, @ mental wreck in « sanitarium in or near this city was denied this after- noon by Dr. Herman L. Reis. The doctor is one of the few persons in this city who knows where “Big Tim'’ is, “Mr, Sullivan,” said Dr. Reis, “ia not dying. It is true that he is o very sick man and has mental trouble, Dut his case is not hopeless by any means. He has diabetes complicated mith a nervous breakdown. We have him in @ eaniterium, where he ts well taken care of. He has been slowly improving for the last two or three weeks. “No one he has ever known in New York 1g atfowed to eee him. Even I do not go near him. The eight of a familiar face orings back memories which operate on his mind to disad- vantage. “We are keeping him hidden because ft 1s absolutely emential that he be kept away from his friends, If the treat- ment continues to show progress he should be out in a couple of monthe—or ineide of three months, anyhow. The Great big requisite in his case te that hd shall be kept away from Influences or paTsons that could possibly remind him of things that have passed which he ‘wishes to forget. When he gets a little stronger his closest friends “will be per- mitted to see him.” 4 REFUSES TO TELL WHERE “BIG Tim” 18. “Is ‘Big Tim’ in De, Bond's senitarium in Yonkers?" Dr. Hels was asked. “1 wish you wouldn't ask me," he replied, ‘I wouldn't tel you Where he fa, even if you guessed the right place. It would not be possible for you to con- firm any statements as to his where- abouts, Not more than hau @ dosen Deople know exactly where he is end Not more than half @ dosen more even Suspect where he |e," Dr. @.

A revival of the rumor gained curency this afternoon in the face of the denial of Dr. Rets and others that “Big Tim” is not in danger of death. 2 People who profess to know say that the form of religious mania.

He was well bred and of In- @omitable courage when he entered poll- tics. He could look the most wieked revolver in “the eye” without finching. The sandbags or the blackjack of the old Bowery days had no terrors for him, His sunny temperament made him popu- Jar everywhere he was known. He used to say that worry was a sign of mad- ness, and yet it was worry that ‘made him a mental wreck. @IRST SHOCK CAUSED BY TRAYAL BY FRIEND. The beginning of his deotine was three years ago when the treachery of one he trusted caused him a loss of $100,000. Not the loss of money but betrayed con- fidence shocked him. Then came the @eath of “Little Tim" and the discovery ‘of the wreok of the latter’s estate, and ag @ final blow the death of his wife. Even as he stood at his wife's grave he gave evidence of the nervous disorder which has become so critical during the past teow days. “Big Tun” ts only forty-nine years old, He was born in a Leonard street tene- ment house and has always lived in lower Manhattan. He started as a newsboy and was @ pressroom assistant Defore entering politics in 1890. For eight years after 1885 he was in the State As- sembly. He is credited with having fathered more bills favoring wage-carn- ers than any half dozen other legisia- tors. After the Assembly he was elected to the Genate, serving four terms and part of a fifth. After one term tn Con- reas he retired to private life for a few years, then returning to the Senate, Bc. Wealthy Friends of Vander- beek Set Frown Vainly on Finder of Gems, The mystery of the missing Vander- deck diamonds still keeps Jersey City wondering. A sunburst with fourteen or seventeen diamonds reposes between two handsome women, one wealthy, the other of moderate means.

Mrs. Piggott phoned to Mra. Vanderbeok for @ construction of the phrase “Ifberal reward.” Qirs. Vanderbeek consented to announce néxt morning in the papers that ehe would give $160. Mrs. Piggott casually inquired how many diamonds were in the sunburst. “Fourteen,” responded Mrs, Van- Gerbdeck. “Beventeen,” quickly corrected Mra. Piggott. “Hum!” Mra. Piggott went next day to the Vanderbeek home, (No. 3¢ Fairview avenue. She was confronted by Mrs. Vanderbdeek and @ apecial policeman from “headquarters.” He wouldn't arrest the ledy. Mrs. Piggott was haled into court on @ subpoena. She was haled out again by her lawyer, who sahil there was no charge against her. To-day the court took on the radi- ance of a rainbow.
