Stack met Engineer William 7 Young of No. 1626 Eighth avenue and Flarman Richard Robenold of No. 462 East One Hundred and Thirty-fifth street. The flagman told him how the accident happened. "A box car attached to the engine,” said the flagman, “was being tacked into the Westchester freight yards from near the Pelham Parkway bridge. I saw what looked like a bundle lying across the track and aig: walled to Engineer Young to stop. The engine didn't stop and I gave the emergency signal.

Richard Field- $mg, keeper of the Fordham Morgue, says he looked at the body dozens of but he didn’t recognize it as that of “Big Tim” Sullivan, although knew Sullivan in life.

At 4.45 o'clock a train crew reported to Policeman Stack of the Westchester station the finding of the body of a man. Whether “Big Tim" jumped from the bridge in front of an approaching train or climbed down to the tracks and was run down while walking along the tracks in the direction of the Baychester station 1s a mystery. His relatives say that after he was stricken with his mental malady he showed an inclination to} walk on railroad jracks, NOT IDENTIFIED IN POLICE STATION. The members of the train crew say that the body was lying on the; tracks when the Ksomotive ran over it. Policeman Stack, upon notl fication from the railroad men, took the names of the witnesses and superintended the removal of the body to the Westchester police station. Strangely enough, none of the officers who saw the body recognized it Qnd it was taken to the Fordham Morgue. The rules of the Department of Charities provide that, after two weeks, bodies unclaimed jn outlying morgues shall be sent to the Bellevue Morgue, en route to Potters Field. The procedure was followed In the case of “Big Tim,” and about 6 o'clock yesterday evening all that was mortal of him reached Bellevue. The body was placed in the reception room. Policoman Turfleld, who has been stationed at the Morgue for twenty«ight years, went Into the Hreception room at 10 o'clock this morning to view two bodies that had been brought in late yesterday. One was the body from Fordiam morgue, the other the body of a “floater.” | Turfleld had known “Big Tim" thirty years. As soon as he saw the { body he recognized it as that of the Bowery leader. The body was badly Dattered, but the face was recognizable and the forehead and the top of the head were unmistakably those of “Big Tim.” Turfield, to make sure, sum- moned Dr. Loulk Schultze, who {s connected with the Department of Correc: | tions and bad known “Big Tim” all his life. Dr, Schultze, after confirming the identification, cent for Deputy Commissioner of Charities Frank J. Geodwin, a Tammiany leader, who agreed that “Big Tim" had been found. Mr. Goodwin telephoned to Larry Mulligan, the dead Congressman’s | half brother, and also to Patrick Sullivan. Messages were also sent to Alderman John White, to Mrs. Mary Hickey, the half-sister of “Big Tim,” and to Mrs. T, P. Sullivan, the widow of “Little Tim.” FEARED SUICIDE AFTER ATTEMPT, SAYS HALF BROTHER Larry Mulligan was the first of the Sullivan family to reach the Morgue, One glance at the mutilated body told him that the search he had been prosecutiig for two wecks was at an end. He broke down completely and ‘the sound of his sobbing was heard by Patrick Sullivan and Alderman White when they entered the Morgue a few minutes later. Patrick Sullivan saw the coat that had been found on the body. He ‘knew the coat and the sight unnerved him. He ran from the Morgue orying. “We were afvaid of this,” sald Larry Mulligan, he had killed himself. He tried to jump off the was coming back from Europe last July, We himself into the river, “But the circumstances do not show absolutely that Tim committed suicide. He had been saying that he wanted to go to New York, 1 think he was walking along the tracks to the nearest station when he was struck. ‘ “Big Tim” is to be given a big public funcral and a wake befitting his prominence on the East Side, Plans for the funeral were competed at a fumily conference this afternoon, Some of the Sullivan relatives favored a | private funeral on Monday from the home of Mrs. T.

Sullivan Left $2,500,000, Says Man Who Drew Will Congressman Sullivan left a will which was drawn up several years ago and Is now in poseession of William B. Ellison of counsel for the committee of his estate. Mr, Ellison sald today that he was not at liberty to announce any of the terms of the will nor to wive the names of the executors, “AU such information will ve given the estate to be worth nearly three mil- Hon dollars, but this figure has dwindled to the smaller sum, “Mm' Sullivan was not a bankrupt. The statement attributed to Lawyer Goldamith in court yesterday, in which it waa reported that Mr. Sullivan was on the verge of bankruptcy and would be @ pauper when a final accounting was immedia after the funeral,” sald] had, was not corect.
