Judge Connolly handed down an

BANK CALL ANNOUNCED.
Statements Show Local Institutions
In Excellent Shape.

A bank call was announced Monday
statements TO be made up to Nov. 10.
BY a comparison of the bank state
ments for last week and at the time
OF the last call. Sept l. the local
banks make an excellent showing. II
is possible TO make the comparison
because the date OF the call practical
ly conceded with the date for the
weekly statements in each case.
The total deposits in the local
banks have increased since the last
call by about 81 100000. Loans. ac-
cordng 10 actual figures, have In.
creased less than 100000 Reserves
have increased more than 81 .500.0 900
and total cash resources have in
creased by little more than $4,000,
900.
Perhaps the most significant
feature OF the statement is the In.
crease in savings deposits that has
been recorded since Sept /. Three
quarters OF a million dollars has been
added TO the savings OF Detroit in
that time This Is one OF the best
indications OF the fundamental pros.
perlty OF the city.

it may seem, the wedding today OF

Prince Victor is 4s, while his bride

when he was visiting in Brussels
several years ago and fell in love at
first sight. but King Leopold prompt

should marry a real king instead OF
a mere pretender. Another thing. he

father however, that she would mar

she settled down to wait
decade passed and Leopold died.
Albert. who succeeded him, was natur
ally averse TO having any unmarried
aunts around and the first thing he
did was 10 let the prince and princess
know that If they still desired to

The only stipulation Albert made
was that Bonaparte must not com.

Letters and TeIegrams to Prisoner Are
Withheld.


Quebec, Aug. 9.-Letters and tele-
grams addressed to DR.. Crippen are
accommodating at the Provincial Jail,
but he is allowed to receive or answer
only the cable messages from Arthur
Newton, his London attorney, regard
ing preparation of his Defense
Fully dozen letters and as many
messages have never reached the pris-
oner, because Jailer NORM has ad-
judged them improper to deliver to a
man in Crippen's situation
All are from the United States or
Canada and most of them from attor-
neys, but at least one or two are en-
closed in dainty square envelopes and
addressed in feminine handwriting.
Inspector Dew returned to Quebec
after sightseeing trip in Central
Canada. He visited the Jail to carry
Crippen cable message, but did not
see the prisoner. Like others, the
message did not pass the censorship
of the jailer and it's contents have not
been revealed.
For the first time since her arrest,
Miss LIE Neve asked for something to
read. A jailer sent her some maga-
zines. A fresh batch of magazines
was also sent to Crippen who reads

nation by Man Named
Gallagher.

NEW 1Ofk, aug. lO.-MayOr Wm j.
Gaynor was shot and dangerously
wounded, at 9:45 a. m. as he stood
on the deck of the steamer Kaiser
Wilhelm der Crosse at the steamship
pier in Hoboken, N. j., about to start
on a months vacation in Europe
The shooting was done by man
who gave his name as Jules James
Gallagher. Gallagher later was iden-
titled as former city employe, re-
Gently discharged. Three shots were
fired at the mayor.
Two of the bullets missed and the
third lodged in the fleshy portion of
the left side of the neck Blood
gushed from the wound and the first
hasty examinations led to the belief
of serious and perhaps fatal conse-
quences.
The mayor retained consciousness
and later examination by the physi-
clans when the mayor was taken to
the hospital gave more hopeful out
look.
Street Cleaning Commissioner Will
liam Edwards was slightly wounded
by one of the bullets intended for
Mayor Gaynor. Edwards, who was
standing by the mayor, seized Gala
gher's arm. One of the bullets passed
through the street commissioners
sleeve and grazed his left arm. The
wound, however, was so slight that
Edwards only discovered it after the
excitement had subsided.
Shooting Of Mayor Is Dramatic.
The shooting occurred under cir
cumstances of the most dramatic
character.
Mayor Gaynor came aboard the
steamer, accompanied by a number of
prominent officials, who were about
to bid him adieu on his trip abroad.
Suddenly a stronger pushed through
the throng from the rear. He ap-
preached the mayor, and without
word began to fire.
Mayor Gaynor was seen to fall to the
deck and the gushing wound told that
he had been hit.
Ships Guard FeIIs AssaiIant.
At the same moment a ships guard
sprang forward and dealt the assassin
a blow on the head with a billy, fell
ing him to the deck, where officers
quickly seized him. He was turned
over to the Hoboken police and taken
at once to police headquarters. There
he gave the name of Gallagher, and
in response to Inquiries as to why he
had committed the deed he replied,
sullenly: s
/: "He kept me from earning my bread
and butter" ..e. E<t.s.
!: Meanwhile Mayor Gaynor was driven
to st. Mary's hospital, Hoboken, where
he was still conscious and occasionally
spoke to those about him. To the city
officials who accompanied him to the
hospital he indicated the gravity with
which he viewed the shot by saying:
) ) "say goodbye to the people,"
It was found that the bullet had en-
tered the mayors neck back Of the
ear, burying itself in the region Of the
mastoid bone. The bullet was not To-
Gated and no effort was made to probe.
His chief difflculty came from the
gathering Of blood in his throat. Az
ter the ministration Of the physicians
|Mr. Gaynor expressed himself 40 feel

fires are all out. We will take up the
matter with the officers at Fort Mis-
