Was WantOn and Malicious.

Michael ]. Gaynor a City Marshal
Cf No. $50 Bedford Avenue, Brook
lyn, was to-day sentenced to serve
ten days in the City Prison and tc
pay a fine Of $3.50, following his con
v,ctton on a charge OF oppression.
The conviction grew out OF tho at
tempt by Gaynor at 2 o'clock on the
morning of June 10 to remove fur
niture from the apartment OF Miss
Sadie Cole at No. 3SS Central Park
West. Gaynor called at the home
and exhibited a Judgment obtained
by a Brooklyn furniture dealer

Mss Cole had purchased the furni.

Despite her protests Gaynor hacked

tihod that she had paid Gaynor SIC

own place.
Justice Edwards Of the Court of
Special Sessions in imposing SEN
tence and speaking for his fellow JUS
tlces, Murphy and Kernochan. said:
"A public official should never for
get that the practice of government
is order. In this country the form OF
government adds to the necessity
that the acts of officials shall be sub
ject to the mandates Of the law, 1t
is signally important that officials
shall protect individuals against un-
lawful acts Of executives"
Justice Edwards then went on to
say that the act of Gaynor was wan
ton and malicious. In asking elem %
ency for Gaynor his attorney stated
that the Marshal was likely 10 lose
his job, and that he faced a civil suit
for damages and that, at his age, the
case meant practical extinction.

RYAN MAY FIGHT

Plan for Mr.. Untermyer as
Counsel RenewS Exchange
Incorporation Talk.
ARE PROTECTED.
Interest Charge Inquiry May
Follow Conference Between
Williams and Financier.

Allan A, Ryan, about whose fnan-
cial affairs there has been consider
able speculation in Wall Street, to-
day announced that he was deslrous
Of retaining Samuel Untermyer as
counsel. and that an answer was ex-
pected this evening. In the mean
time Mr.. Ryan gave no interviews.
There was much speculation in the
financial district day as to the rea-
son why Mr Ryan is desirous of OBJ
tanning the services Of Samuel I'm
termyer in Particular as counsel.
Following as it does conference
with Comptroller OF the Currency
Williams IT gave riss to the belief
that MIR. Ryan will vigorously fight
the action Of the banks in assuming
charge Of his financial affairs, and
that it is not unlikely that 1t will
mark the opening Of a new fight to
incorporate the New York Stock ok
change. Mr., Untermeyer has long
been known as one OF the strong ad-
Vocates Of Stock Exchange incorpo-
ration.
1t is Wall Streets view that any
action against banks can only be
based on the allegation that his loans
were amply secured by collateral and
that there was such wide margin OF
safety in the way of excess assets in
the loans that for the banks to call
the loans amounted to nothing less
than undue oppression.
In this connection -the statement
vas made to-day by interests that are
known TO be friendly to Mrs. Ryan
that while loans totalled $4,000, 900,
the market value Of securities pledged
as collateral is approximately SIS, 900, o
900, and this computation is arrived
at after figuring Stutz Motor at only
$50 per share. Mr.. Ryan is under
stood to be the owner OF 16O, 900 shares
of Stutz stock which is now quoted
nominally at $50 bid, $50 asked.
While bankers characterize the
present transaction, it is admitted in
Sto-A Exchange circles that for
Oanks to call loans when there is a
so per cent. excess of good market
able collateral would be an unusual
proceeding.

why this $4,000 when you are
going to pay interest on the opera
tion|' was asked.
Because money is worth more at
the present time than the legal rate
OF interest, and Just at that time the
Federal Reserve Bank had issued In
structions for all banks to curtau
their loans, and It was dimcult to get
money"
Why $4,000 rather than S75. .OOO?''
There Is no reason at ALL" replied
Mr.. Tench, further than that / f,g-
ured It would cost us that and I Of
fered it to them.
O. Who was this man you dealt

A. Mr. Baldwin.
O. What officer is he there?
A. He is President OF the Trust

The witness stated that President

and never would charge more than 6
per cent, but that in order to get
the additional accommodation he
would have to pay It out"

Mr.. Carswell, "he made II clear to
you that the $4,000 was not going TO
the Hudson Trust Company as such?''

New York which is the money centre
Of the country and probably the
