WALTER D. PRICE BURIED.

Policy Dealer.

Was Once = Noted PtckpOcket and
Policy Dealer.
The funeral OF Walter d. Price, whose
picture is No. 2S6 in the Rogues' Gallery,
and who in years gone by was consid-
cred one of the most expert pickpockets
in America. was held at i o'clock this
afternoon at his home. So5 West One
Hundred and Twenty-sixth street.
Price was sixty-five years old. He
was born in this city and grew up on
the Bowery, when that thoroughfare
was in its palmiest days.
Price, during his career. went under
dozen different aliases. He always
dressed in black, and the cut of his
coat was such as to lead people who did
not know him to think he was a clergy
man.
In recent years Price has conducted
policy shop in Nesey street, near
Washington. From this business he is
said to have derived a prncely income
1t Is said, however, by his friends that
he left no property.
His redeeming trait of character was
his generosity. He is said to have al
ways been willing to help the unfortu-
nate, and on occasions Is reported to
have given large sums to the widows
and families OF deceased friends who
left their relatives unprovided for. Prices
friends say that he never gambled,
smoked, drank or cursed in his life.
