Facing Jail for Refusal,
lie Tells Wallstein Of
Weingart Death.
HELLENSTEIN TO BE
RECALLED MONDAY
Expert Says Autopsy Even Now
Would Show If Big Tim
Sullivan Was Murdered.

Dr. Bodog F. Beck appeared late yes
tcrday in the private Office Of Leonard
W. Wallstein, Commissioner Of Ac-
counts, and answered all the questions
his previous refusal to answer which
led TO contempt proceedings. Other
questions put by the Comissioner Of
Accounts likewise brought full an
swers, and it is believed that a foun-
datior was laid fer startling cross
examination OF Coroner Herman Hell
lcnstcin as 10 the death of Isaac Vein
Eart.
Wclugart was found dead in a bath
tub full Of water in November 1913.
The cause Of death. determined by in
quest. was "asphyXia by submergence
i'm bathtub, due to natural causes"
Litigation concerning $4,000 worth Of
insurance policies is pending, the COM
panies alleging suicide.
Or. Beck previously refused TO dis
close the substance of three converse
tions with Coroner Helenstein as TO
his examination of Welngart's body.
In his application for DR.. Beck's COM
mitment for contempt, Commissioner
Wallstein said his purpose was TO de-
termiue whether Coroner ,Hellensteln
had at the inquest brought out all the
facts in his possession or had sup
pressed what had been made known 70
him by DR.. Beck.
Al an earlier private examination DR..
Beck said that "some little fellow" ran
up 70 him just before the inquest and
told him not to volunteer any infOr-
nation. but merely to answer the ques-
tIOns put by the Coroner.
Lawyers said yesterday that so far
az any criminal proceedings were CON
cerned the witnesses testifylng in Com
missioner Wallstein's inquiry gained
immunity, but that such immunity
could not be stretched 10 cover their
appearance upon charges.
The death Of Big Tim" Sullivan,
former State Senator and Representa-
tive. was brought into the inquiry into
the Coroners Office yesterday as an in
stance Of careless methods of identlu-
cation, and the unlald ghost Of posi-
bic murder again stalked abroad.
"As long as there was the slightest
suspicion of foul play" said DR.. Doug
las Swimmers. associate professor OF
pathology at Bellevue Medical College,
"that body. mangled and bruised as It
was. should have been autopsied to
determine whether it had first been
murdered and then thrown on the
tracks or whether IL had been killed
as a result of having been placed on
tho tracks during life
Later Dr. Symmers said that even
uoW an examination would SHOW II
death had been caused by a blackJack
or similar weapon or II corrosive
poison. had been used.

The Mayor said that he had not con-
erred with Police Commissioner
n Gods in the matter as he preferred
TO let the latter proceed in his own
way. untrsmmelleG by outside Sugges-
tions. He expressed every confidence
that the perpetrators Of the crime and
those responsible for its commission
would be apprehended.
'I am sure that the Police Commits
Sioner will use as vigorous measures
as possible in dealing with this case,
he said. The police by their general
