E. COPPERS, CITY
VETERAN, DEAD
Prominent in EIkS and Associate
Of Tammany Leaders.

Edward Coppers, seventy-six years
old, Civil War veteran, Tammany poll
tician and former superintendent Of the
Criminal Courts Building in Manhat-
tan, died yesterday at the home Of his
daughter, Mrs. Frederick Wagner, at
Flushing, Long Island. Funeral SER
vices will be held at 543 Bergen Street,
Brooklyn, on Monday morning. There

Mr. CopDers was born in England,
March 10, 1870, and came TO New YORK

Coppers enlisted in the army, and was
later transferred TO Farragut's feet.

q. A. r., of this city.
As life member of the Elks he was
known intimately to members OF that
order Tor forty years, and was one OF

ernor Roosevelt; Eugene A. PhllDin and
later W. w. X. Olcott and william
Travers Jerome. lie oiiicIated through
the Molineux, Nan Patterson and Thaw
trials.
i, was the superintendent custom
every year TO hoist the American flag
on the building on August 4. This ur-
usual procedure always resulted IN an
inquiry by curious persons, VINO

condemned as unsafe Everybody
moved from the building but Coppers,
who refused. Finally he induced Mayor
Mcclellan 70 examine the building " In
him, and satisfied the Mayor that the
building was amply safe enough 70 keep
on standing just where 1t was.
The city conferred a pension on Mr
Coppers two years ago. He leaves
three daughters and two sons.
