New York Professor Falls 10 His
Death I'm Store

New York, May L-Dr John Joseph
McNulty, Of IS Morton street. professor
of mental and moral philosophy at the
College Of the City of New York. was
killed this afternoon By falling down
an elevator shaft in the Macy & Co.
department store. at Thirty fourth street
and Broadway. The only eyewitness TO
the manner in which Prof. McNulty met
his death is Charles Denham, the negro
elevator boy. who WAS arrested and held
on a charge of homicide.
Denham told the police that when his
elevator had reached the fifth floor the
only passengers were Prof. McNulty and
Dr. E. W. Allison, Of 5o5 West 13Ith
street. Dr. Allison got out at the fifth
floor, and Denham says that he started
the elevator again. when Prof McNulty
apparently discovered that he had passed
his floor and, throwing open the door
of the elevator cage, tried to get out.
Denham says that Prof. McNulty's S
body struck against the side Of the
doorway opening into the fifth floor and
then toppled back into the shaft as the
cage shot up.
