New York, May 1O.-The body Of
Willie Mccormick, who disappeared
from his home in this city some weeks
ago, was found in Cromwell creek at
161st street and Railroad avenue. The
body was identified by the boys sister.
It had been supposed that the boy
was kidnapped, and rewards aggregat-
ing $4,000 were offered for his re-
turn. The parents were poor people,
and thu:e could have been little hope
OF them paying any considerable
amount. But the priest Of the parish,
much interested in the case, offered
$4,000 for the boys return, and
others made up the balance. Many
alleged clues were followed to disap-
pointment. It was thought that he
had been carried away by gypsies, a
band of whom had been in the neigh
borhood.
