NAY EXHUME BOYS BODY
HOnkers Police Still Investigating
Young UnderhiPs Death.

The investigation of the Yonkers police and
Coroner Hes into the suspicious circumstances
attending the death of Phillips Brooks Under
hill reached such stage last night that it is
now likely the body will be ordered exhumed
IN order that examination may be made and
all doubts removed as to whether the boy died
from natural causes
The police were not satisfied with the investi-
cation pursued Wednesday night by the Board
OF Education when investigating committee
brought in a report exonerating Warren L.
Kaufman principal Of School 10. and deciding
that young Underhils death was due to natural
causes
Chief of Police Wolff said: Il do not think
the inquiry of the school authorities went far
enough. There were thirty boys and girls in the
class with Underhill. who might have been able
TO throw a good deal of light upon alleged
assault made upon him in the school, but only
two members of the class were questioned by
the Investigating committee. I intend going
into the matter thoroughly"
After making this statement the chief and
Coroner lies went TO Mr. Kaufman's school and
talked with the principal and twenty five pupils
As many more boys and girls were examined
last night
Mr.. Kaufman repeated the statement he made
on Wednesday night to the school authorities,
when he positively denied having either struck
wall in the hall of the school.
Though considerable number Of the boys and
girls examined said they knew nothing about the
case. many made damaging statements against
Mr.. kaufman. It also developed during the In
quiry that some of the spirited Of Phillips's
classmates, angered at the apparent Indifference
TO the suspicious element in the boys death had
started a movement to visit the City Court and
lay such facts they were cognizant Of before
the City Court
Many OF the pupils said that Phillips Underhin
told them after school that Mr.. Kaufman had
beaten him. Rose Hottner, of No los Jefferson
street. said Phillips had boasted that in the
scuff1e he nearly threw Mr.. Kaufman down
stairs Rose added: Phillips stood in the
corner after school crying. He told me and sew
eral other boys and girls that Mr. kaufman
either pinched him or knocked him against
the wall. When they were in the hallway that
day heard something strike against the wall"
