PARK AND CEMETERY, 
Obituary. 
Eugene Cushman, Superintendent 
of Greenwood Cemetery, Brooklyn, 
N. Y., was killed June i, under cir- 
cumstances that leave the police in 
doubt as to whether he was mur- 
dered or accidentally killed. His 
body was run over by a trolley car 
at 5th avenue and 84th street, Brook- 
lyn, about 2 o’clock a. m. The mo- 
torman and passengers were of the 
opinion that he was dead before be- 
ing struck by the car, and the police 
share this view, suspecting that he 
may have been murdered, and his 
body placed on the track by his as- 
sailants for the purpose of hiding 
evidence of the crime. Mr. Cush- 
man was 54 years old, and had been 
superintendent of Greenwood since 
1893, when he succeeded L. J. Wells 
in that position.
