There is marked determination
among the New Jersey authorities to
make Gallagher an example Of quick

determined tonight not 20 lay his
case before the grand jury pending
the outcome Of the mayors injuries

be quickly tried. charged with assault
with intent 10 XII. for which he may
receive a maximum sentence Of
twenty years. II his victim should

first degree, the penalty FOR which is
death.
For n man who so narrowly os-
capped instant death by an assassin's
bullet. Mayor Gaynor spent a cheerful
day. With the ever-present POSSIBLE
lily Of blood poisoning the anxiety 81
those near his bedside remains tense.
but every bulletin Of the day con-
corning his condition was optimistic,
Mayor Gayuor conversed cheerfully
with those who saw him and pleaded
with his wife and his physicians 10
allow him a slice or two o. bacon. for
which he has great fOndness.

OF news Of the shooting. was allowed

sick room. Tho mayors only other |

ENCOURAGING symptoms OF the
stricken executive was the develop
ment OF a pronounced appetite. The
nourishment mentioned la the official
bulletin Was chicken broth. The
patient had some difficulty In swal-
lowing Il. owing 10 soreness Of the
muscles near the point where the
bullet entered, bur this seemed TO In

Of the food. While the mayors cen
dltlon is still admitted 20 be serious
and the physicians would not commit
themselves on any statement as TO
the outcome. His excellent condition,
due 10 his outdoor life. gives strong
grounds for the belief that he will
recover unless blood poisoning sets IN.
An K-ray examination last night
the bullet had split after en-
teFlng the head just below the right
ear, n section apparently lying IN
the floor Of the mouth near the left
OF the j%awbone. while the other
remains near the entrance point OF
the wound behind the ear.
