Lsnecinl . the RrENrNc cAFErAI..l

Ngw YoRK. Dec. 5.-The attempted
shooting OF Daily continues the sensation
of the city. Mr. DAILY is with his family
at the StreihmoTe apartment house up
town. with his head bandaged, but rapid
" recovering from the wound and ner-
yous shock caused by the assault.
Three distinct opinions are held in re-
gard to the case by the police and others
connected with the city government.
They are as follows:
First-That DAILY has not given the
correct story regarding the shooting, that
he has known the woman for some time
and that she shot him through jealousy.
Second-That DAILY had no money TO
speak of on his person; that his alleged
government bonds were stock in a racing
association aud comparatively worthless,
and he cooked up his story hastily To GOV
er his relations With the woman and pre-
vent himself from appearing in Judi
crous position aud being ''guyed" by bis
friends.
Third That the woman Stanton,
though not beauty, is shrewd, intelll
gent aud thoroughly acquainted with the
modus operandi of the art of swinding
men, and that she has been in manner
employed in Days gambling operations.
That she has a strong influence over
him aud that the case probably willnot be
prosecuted TO any extent, that DAILY found
rival in her apartment and provoked a
quarrel.
The woman claim TO be innocent Of
the attempt upon Days life,' said Capt.
Reilly, and they declare positively. al
least Mits Stanton does. that she is ignor
ant of their idenity.
We are certain, however, that DAY. was
shot, notcubhed that a neighbor OF the wo.
men shot him; that two meu were In the
room. rushii upon him frem the folding
doors, and one Of them fired at him with
loaded pistol. DAILY asserts that be had
