Get .Azcdu EnrIu

Mayor Gaynor finds the days all too
short to get through the business he has in
hand. He thought that when he had made
most of his appointments the number of
daily callers would decrease, but he found
he was mistaken. He reached his office
in the City Hall soon after o'clock yes
terday. and it was after before he started
on his walk home He was away for three
hours, however, in the middle Of the day
going to Brooklyn to act as a pail bearer
at the funeral of Moses May.
The appointment OF Frank Mann, a law
yer, of No 81 Suydam street, Brooklyn, as
Second Deputy Tenement House Commits

interpreter in the Supreme Court, in
Brooklyn, and Mayor Gaynor, then on the
bench, advised him to study law Deputy
Commissioner Mann takes the place of
John McKeown.

would probably have several appointments
