A CORNER IN CoFF1Ns.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD-
Allow me to call attention TO the manner persons
are treated who have the misfortune to have any Of
their friends dead in Bellevue Hospital party on
applying TO the keeper Of the Morgue see body
shown the same. and then the keeper, who is no
dertaker at all tout is, believe Interested party
with VINO calls himself an undertaker), makes
arrangements with tho person whose friend IS
dead. and then calls In the so-caed UNDER
taker, who takes charge Of the body and pre-
pares II tor burial, whereas II said keeper
minded his own business the undertakers in this
city would have funerals from that institution
but for the interference OF this man. Another way
they have OF dong business is this-three or four
men, who represent themselves ns undertakers,
patrol Twenty-sxth street, from First avenue to tho
river, every day from eight A. NJ. TO seven r M. and
sometimes later and the person. who comes along and
has friend dead. WOO be TO him. IL would remind
you OF a countryman trying to pass Chatham street
clothing store The cards oil these so.called
takers placed In the very face OF the person or
persons and they are followed several blocks and
obliged, through fear, TO give the funerals OF their
friends to these men d. J. s.
