Hyde didn't enter the TOmbs until :
o'clock yesterday morning. The two hours
intervening between his conviction ana
his passage across the Bridge of Signs
Inc spent in the Sheriffs Office in the
criminal Courts Building, where he busted
himself dispatching messages of gooo
cheer to his family and friends Warden
Fallor placed him at first in regulation
cell on the first tier. where he rested out
did not sleep, until o'clock. 1t was theh
that he was transferred 10 the quarters
formerly occupied by Warden Flynn ana
Cummins.
The official reason given by Deputy
Commissioner William J. Wright OF the
Department of Correction was that DIT
Frank A. Mcguire, the Tombs physician
had said man OF Hyde's size would IN
lure his health In the Cramped cell shared
with another prisoner. Being six fee'

right in one of these cells. nor could ne

DRUGS Stored Near Hyde.
Deputy Commissioner Wright was anx-
ious, however. to give the public the I'M
preston that the room Hyde now occupied
was no chamber of ease. His bed-it is
bed. and not bunk. now-is still toe
short for him. said Mr. Wright; he IL

for the storage of drugs. and the walls
Of his prison are blistered by the action
of the moisture gathered from the for
mer site of old Collect Pond. on which
the hut stands.
Indeed, the Deputy Commissioner as
sured the reporters that Warden Flynn
had died in this little house, and II haC
since been abandoned as quarters for th'
warden because of it's unhealthfulness
on the other hand. II could not be con
sidered as a quick avenue TO suicide, be
cause the prisoner was locked away from
the drugs stored i'm the adjoining rooms.
IIyde's spirits did not reflect the damp
ness of his cell. He did not. however
seek converse with anybody and every
body. His earliest caller was Max ID
Steuer. his trial lawyer, who spent ar
hour with him and afterward referred
all inquircrs about the fortunes of the
case to Hyde's other counsel, John b
Stanchfield.
II is understood that Mr.. Stanchhelo
will handle the former City Chamberlain
appeal and that henceforth Steuer is &c
take a back seat if his services have mol
been entirely dispensed with.
Mr. Stanchfeld said he would go before
Justice Mccall in Part l of the Supreme
court and apply for a stay and an order
10 show cause why a certlilcate OF rea
sonable doubt should not be issued to his
client as soon as Justice Golf had SEN
fenced Hyde on Wednesday. If the GER
tfcate of reasonable doubt is granted ar
effort will be made TO get HYDE out Oh
bail pending appeal.
Other friends who visited Hyde yester'
day were John V Smith. his private sec

now the secretary of Chamberlain Moore

from his office who testified in the trla
