LONG A CONSPICUOUS FIGURE IN BROOK
LYN. But NO ONE KNOWS ANY
THING AROIT HIM

An aged and eccentric clergyman. who had been
known as the Rev. P. Arundel Simpson. fell dead
at Court and Fulton sts., Brooklyn. yesterday.
For many years he had boarded with a Mrs.
James. at No. 299 Tilary-st.. but she knows moth
ing OF his history and little about his friends
Formerly she said he rector Of Episcopal
church In Brooklyn. Several Episcopal clergymen
say however that they heard Of him. and
his name does not appear the OF the
diocese OF Long Island.
In the mans pockets were found number OF
letters. from Miss Alice McGerighe. of St
john y. B. who appears 10 be a niece in which
she speaks OF the sudden death OF Mr.. Simpsons
Two brothers Another letter from the Rev
p. NJ. Burck. rector of St Peters Episcopal Church
in Minneapolis
Although nobody knew anytn about the min
lister. who was about sixty years old, his fig
ure had been a conspicuous around the neigh
borhood Of the Borough Hall for a long time
design, with a peculiar old straw hat in summer
and a long. seedy looking ulster. trimmed with
moth eaten fur in winter, Mr. Simpson used TO
walk among the loafers around the square and
preach TO them little sermons. filed with quaint
sayings and bits of philosophy In the reading
room OF the Brooklyn Library seen daily
and he always carried with him a bundle OF news
papers.
The body taken to the Morgue and effort
is being made To communicate with OF the
dead mans relatives.

Collector Bidwell yesterday made public an opin-

Ex-Judge Dittenhoefer, of counsel for Rosenthal

The absence of conclusive evidence of any intent

the United States District Attorney had not sus-
tained his charges against Rosenthal & Co last
night Mr.. Wakeman replied:
