DENNIS SULLIVAN,
OF NOTED CLAN, DIES
Popular on East Side, Many OF
Whose Residents Will Be
at Funeral To-day.

Funeral services for Dennis Sullivan,
who died a few days ago in his home
In 333 Broome street after he had be-
come suddenly i'll while visiting friends
at Sea Gate. Coney Island, will be held
this morning in the old st. Patricks
Cathedral In Mulberry street. The police
are making arrangements to handle one
of the biggest crowds and one OF the
most sorrowing- crowds that ever packed
the streets of downtown's Little Italy.
because Dennis Sullivan was one or the
East Side Sullivans, one of that clan
of practical politicians headed by Big
Tim.
Dennis Sullivan was a kinsman OF
Big Tim Sullivan, a fourth cousin. and a
captain under the doughty 'rammany
leader during the height Of the latter's
fame and power. He was born In Ire
land but he was brought to this country
when year old, and he grew up on the
East Side. Everybody there knew him.
and yesterday they went by the hundreds
to the Stephen Merritt undertaking estao-
lishment and paid him homage. Jew
and Gentle, Protestant and Catholic.
they came and stood in line TO pay their
respect to one of the Sullivans.
Sullivan lived in recent years with
his half brother, Harry Perry, who Is
Tammany leader for the district. and
two months ago he was blackjacked by
a hold-up man almost within sight OF
his home. 1t was this attack that is be-
Iieved to have brought on the illness
that caused his death. The attack nap
pened within few blocks OF the home
of Sullivans brother. Representative
Christopher d. Sullivan.
Only once did Dennis Sullivan. in all
his long political life. desert the stand
ards of Tammany Hail. That was in
1917, when he resigned as Democratic
sergeant at arms of the Board of Alder
men, announced that he had Joined the
City Democracy and went forth to fight
for the election of John PurToy Mitchell.
Since then he has only dabbled in poll
tics, although he had at times assisted
his half brother and his brother in their
campaigns with the wisdom and the
knowledge of practical politics that he
gathered when an aid to Big Tim.
Sullivan was 81 years old. He was
never so well known as his kinsmen, Big
and Little Tim, or as his brother but he
welded an influence on his own account
and also because of his relationship to
the famous Sullivans. Many 2. man on
the Bowery and the East Side has been
able to get on his feet again through
the aid given him by Dennis Sullivan
and they have never forgotten MIN. Even
in the rain they stood In line before the
undertaker's chapel TO pay homage to
! him And what they said about him
was that he never forgot friend and
never refused help where help was
| needed.

 Where now the winds of March are blowing the garden sass will soon be growing. My muse shall sing mans yearly need for onion sets and spin aeh seed, shall sing likewise that gay deceiver which stimulates our garden fever, the subtle seedman's catalog whose charms our better judgement fog. Its pictured beets and peas and chard were never grown in my back yard. My radishes are not so red, my punkins not so widely spread, my lettuce refuse to head. The seedsman is an optimist and loves the brighter side, I wist. He does not show in col ored plate the wooly worms that lie in wait. No dark-brown spots like mine are seen on his prolific green pod bean. And yet, for planting all agog, love that yearly catalog. hail with joy each harmless fable and plant new squashes for my table. For though my cukes be bitter things my cabbage full of worms, by jings, and all my snap beans full of strings, still to my heart the brown earth calls, and all her summers springs and falls shall find my legs in over allS; shall find me spading loam and sand with seven blisters on my hand.
