Any chance it might be this other Tim Sullivan? This looks to be Mott Street in front of old St. Patrick's.

This is the funeral of "Big" Tim Sullivan, on September 15, 1913. LOC -- "Bowery" should be capitalized.

Wystan, I think the funeral was on September 15, reported in NYT of Sept. 16. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9C03E2D8123FE633A... "CLASS LINES VANISH AT SULLIVAN BURIAL; Judges and Senators Mix with Thieves and Gangsters for Last Tribute to Dead Leader."
Wystan said:
@swang, Thank you; your evidence is incontrovertible.

Everyone, Thanks for the detective work on this image and the others of the funeral of 'Big Tim' Sullivan. We will update this record as well as the other related images to reflect the details.

Wystan, I think the date may be 7/17/13 like the adjacent photograph: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/3774616955/in/p... The man ahead of Big Tim is Larry Mulligan who appears in the adjacent photo at link above, and the woman standing just behind Big Tim here appears to be in the other photo too.
