New York. Sept 15.-The Bowery
was full of grief for the news had
spread to the uttermost alleys and top
most tenaments that big Tim" Sui
livan was dead. The friend who fur
nished them free shoes IN winter and
clam bakes In the summer was no
more, and when the word went around
that a mass meeting out of rspect to
the Newsboy-C Congressman was to-be
held in the Timothy d. Sullivan club
on the East side, the district flocked
there as one man.
The hall was filled to overflowing
with friends of Timothy d. Sullivan
as well us those who knew him only
through his benefactions, and crowds
trying to get into the place blocked
the sidewalks.
With Mayor Gaynor dead at sea, and
big Tim" killed by a railroad train,
the East siders felt that their cups
of sorrow were brimming over
Timothy ID. Sullivan, member of
Congress. 80 years old, and reputed TO
be worth s2,5O0.0O0. was killed by a
New Haven train about a. m, Aug
ust 81, in Eastchester, Pelham bay,
and his body lay for nearly two weeks
unidentified in Fordham morgue,
though there were plenty of marks on
the clothing to aid Identification and
the morgue keeper was a longtime
friend of Sullivan.
Saturday the body was sent to the
Bellevue hospital morgue in East
Twenty-sixth street to be buried in
the potter's field, and there patrol
man recognized it. Patrick II. Sulli-
van, brother, and Larry Mulligan. half
brother, confirmed the identification.
Perhaps no man in all New York
was known, personally or by sight. to
more people than was big Tim" poll
tician, theatrical man, sportsman. and
philanthropist, yet, for thirteen days
his body lay in a morgue unrecognized
while the man was missing and hue
and cry was sent broadcast through
out the city and vicinity.

New York, Sept. 17.-Inspector Eau.
rot, who on Sunday arrested Father
Hans Schmidt, who later confessed to
having murdered Anna Aumuller and
cut up her body and cast 1t by pieces
into the Hudson river. arrived at po-
lice headquarters having in custody
DR.. A. E. NIuret, dentist of 301 Saint
Nicholas avenue, and his housekeeper,
Bertha Zeck. DR.. Muret is being held
on a technical charge of counterfeiting
and the woman as material witness.
1t is said that under the name of
George Miller, Muret hired an apart
ment in West One Hundred and Thir-
ty-fourth street, and that in this apart
ment were found plates and presses
and portions of partially-destroyed
proofs of 500 gold certificates. The
detectives allege that they also found
in Father Schmidt's room at st. JOS
eph's rectory, plate from which coun-
terfeit money had been struck.
Dr. Muret was arrested at his home,
which is in the vicinity of ST. Joseph's
church The dentist seemed uncon-
cerned when he was taken into GUS
tody.
Dr. Muret is thirty-one years old,
He was horn in Chicago. but went TO
Europe as a boy and studied in the
public schools of Berlin. He graduat-
ed from dental college there in 1902
1903 and came TO New York in the lat
ter year,
Dr. Muret said he first met Schmidt
when the priest visited him TO have
some dental work done and it is said
by the police that Muret told Inspect
or Faurot that Schmidt first broached
the subject OF counterfeiting.
From far.off Mainz, Germany.
there came to Monsignor Joseph F.
Mooney, vicar general OF the Archdio-
cese of New York, cablegram from
the secretary of the bishop, which
said that Schmidt had been declared in
sane there. and suspended by the blsh.
op. The message read:
Schmidt born at Aschaffenburg.
Priest of the Diocese of Mainz Ran
away from Mainz because OF attempt
ed frauds; arrested by police; declared
insane by court and discharged. Sus-
pended by bishop for acts and for pre-
senting falsified document regarding
studies he pretended to have made.
Then left diocese"
In his cell Schmidt told and retold
the story of his crime and how. after
the woman was dead. he cut up the
body with knife and saw. and sank

QUEER MISTAKES MADE
in CAPITOL PAINTINGS
Artist Gave q Girl Two Left Hands.
An indian Has Six
Toes.
FLAGS FLOAT THREE WAYS

In the dome OF the Capitol at WASH
ington there are eight great paintings
carefully designed and executed by
the artists for the adornment of the
nations greatest building. Yet Ave OF
them are either defective in technique,
says the Youths Companion. or IN err
ror as to natural or historical facts.
One Of the best-known pictures is
that in which Washington is shown
resigning his commission TO the Con-
ttnental Congress. There are two
young girl almost Hfe-size, standing
in the foreground. They are very
pretty young girls. but one of them
has three handsi One left hand rests
on the shoulder of her companion
Another left hand is round her COM
panion's waist. Doubtless the artist,
TrumbulI. painted both hands to see
which pose he preferred, and then for
got to paint out the superfiuous hand.
Diagonally across the rotunda is the
painting Of the baptism CT Pocahontas.
Sitting in the foreground is Opecan-
canough, the uncle OF Pocahontas. He
Is barefooted, and the artist has given
him six toes on his left foot! In the
painting of the landing of Columbus.
which used to be reproduced on the IS
bank note, the artist has painted three
flags. They are very well drawn, but
one is blowing east one west, and one
south. which indicates a very variable
condition OF the wind on that famous
day.
In the picture of the surrender of
CORVALLIS. Gen. Washington is con-
spicuous, seated upon a white horse.
But Gen. Washington was not present
at the surrender. CORVALLIS did not
surrender his army in person. but sent
a subordinate officer to do so. Accord
ingIy, Washington detailed an offlcer
Of corresponding rank to receive the
surrender. 1T would have been a
breach of military etiquette for Wash
ington to be present
The fifth picture. signing of the
Declaration Of Independence at Phila-
delphia, on July Fourth, 1776." Is
wrong only in the title. The Declare
ton was adopted July 4. but 1t was
not signed by the members of the Con-
