GENTRY IN THE TOIdS.
A Fractured Skull, Broken Rib and
Many stab Wounds.

Philadelphia, Feb. 20.-James B. Gem
try, the actor who shot Miss Margaret
Winifred Drysdale (Madge Yorke) in
a room at Zeisse's hotel, this city, on
Sunday night last, was arrested here
this morning at Thirty-third street
and Columbia avenue.
When arrested the fugitive murderer
had fractured skull, a fractured rib
which penetrated the covering of the
lung. and three small stab wounds
over his heart, where he had cut him
self with a small penknife in an effort
to commit suicide.
He was at once hurried to the Ger
man hospital and the doctors at that
institution consider his condition Sc
rious. He was evidently a sick man
before he committed the murder and
the exhaustion and exposure since then
has weakened him greatly.
He is unable to talk with any degree
of coherency at present, but stated to
the doctors that he received his
wounds by jumping out OF back win
dow Of the hotel. and not from fire
escape as was before reported.
In attempting suicide with the PEN
knife he had opened his shirt and cut
himself deliberately. as his shirt Was
found to contain no rent or tear which
the knife would make.
