INCARCERATED THIRTEEN YEARS.
He Is Mental Wreck and Is in Charge
of Il DISQUALIFICATION His
Brother, But None Of
His Friends.

New York. Sept. 4.--Dr. Thomas Gal
laghcr, who was liberated last week after
serving thirteen years penal Scryitudc in
Chatham and Portland prisons, arrived
here this afternoon ON board the Amcri-
can liner ST. Paul. He was met at
quarantine by delegation of representa-
tivCs of Irish societies in this country.
Among those who went aboard to greet
him was James Gallagher, who is Il
brother of the released.
DR.. Gallagher recognized his brother ut
once, but he was in very cXcitablc mood
and acted very strangely. Dr. Anthony
Mcbride. who accompanied DR.. Gala
CHER across the ocean. would not permit
any of the newspaper men to speak to
his charge.
1t was evident that the doctors mental
condition was II total wreck. He looked
to be fully twenty-five years older than
when he left America a little over thir-
teen years ago.
When the members of the delegation of
lrishmen were presented to him the doe
tor was unable to recognize any of them
and almost Immediately ran away through
the corridor shouting loudly and incoher-
emily. He was followed by two of the
bedroom stewards. but before they grasp
ed his arms he threw handful of pins
through one of the portfolio windows and
shouted Il have got my fare over the
ferry, at any rate AS soon as the at
tendants got him under control the doe
tor turned to them appcalingly and said:
MY God, is this the way an American
citizen must be trcated:' He broke
away from the attendants again. hut they
finally rescued him.
DR.. Mcbride said: Il have not exam
ined DR.. Gallagher and can not say
whether he has suffered any bodily in
jury from his treatment in prison. He
complained frequently that he was
treated very harshly and said three of
his ribs were broken in Chatham prison.
His general health is in precarious con-
dition and mentally he is in very deli
cate state. 1t will be necessary for him
to have absolute quiet for fully twelve
months and then | am not quite sure he
will recover sufficiently to have the use
of all his faculties
AS soon rs the st. Paul reached her
dock the doctor, accompanied by his ply
scian and two intimate friends, drove
from the pier to an uptown hotel. from
whence he will probably he taken to Il
