Dr. Gallagher and Whitehead.
New Youk, Oct. 20, Undorthonusplco

of this city, wklch Is nflllliitcd with tho
organization of tho snmo naino in the)
United Klngdom.a mass mooting was hold

protost against tho treatment extended to
Irish and Irish-American political prts
oners in Kngllsh prisons. Tho mooting
was presided over by tho Hon. Morgan J.
O'Brien, judgo of tho supreme court.
Tho following resolutions wore road nnd
adopted:
"Whereas, England has been cruol to
hor political prisonors to such nn inhu
man oxtont thnt nt least six men hava
been driven mad, twlco as many hurried
to tho grave, nnd others so shattered, men
tally nnd physically, as to bo rondored in
capableof taking their plncomgal it among
men to fight tho battlo of life,
"Itosolvod, That wo American cltlzons,
in public meetlnir assembled, ilononnco
tho treatment to which thoso prisoners
have boon subjected, as unworthy of oven a
nniiou or tho lowost barbarians, and pro-
tost against its continuance in tho case of
tho political prisoners who nro still hold
In Knglnnd's dungeons.
Whereas, Wo havo scon Dr. Thomas
Uallagher and Goorgo Albert Whitehead,
two must worthy citizens of our conntrv.
tho former n physician of ominenco, tho
latter a clover mechanic, and both physi
cally and mentally without a blemish
when they left thoso shores, rotttrneil tons
utter tliirteon yoars mental and physical
wrecks, fit only to bo detained until death
relievo them, in nn asylum for lunatics
nnd.
Whereas, Their condition is duo, in tho
opinion of specialists, to tho brutalitlos
which were lnillctod on them by tho En
glish government, brutalities shocking be
yond concoptlou, according to oyo witnesses,
liosolved. That wo. tho fellow citizens
of theso sufferors, hereby record our horror
nt tho cruelties, bad as over imagined by
Turk or Neapolitan, practiced upon them.
and declare that England in tho fnco of
tho world, Instead of posing about atroci
tlos in Armenia, should hide herself in
sackcloth and ashes for hor own atrocious
misdoings In tho gulso of civilization, and
Itosolved, That wo hereby respectfully
call upon our government to mako such
protest without delay that theso barbar
ities must censo, and tho world stand
aghast at England's barbarism and hy
pocrisy, as will Insure tho cessation of
buch barbarities, and tho release of theso
men, all of whom wore convicted on ac
knowledged perjured testimony andunder
a law hurriedly elected by parliament to
fcucuro their Imprisonmont.
Itosolvod, That copies of theso resolu
Hons l)e Sent to i'rosldont Cleveland, Sec
retary of State Olney and other mouthers
of tho cabinet nnd to tho representatives
in both housos ol congress.
Tho socrctary road tho report of tho com
mltteo which recontly visited Dr. Galla
ghcritrd Whitehead at Amity villa Tho
report was as follows:
"Your committee appointed to tnko
chnrgo of tho rcleasod prisoners and foo
thnt thoy aro properly carod for would re
spectfully report that wo visited them at
tho Long Island Homo, Amityvillo, nnd
found them in about tho snmo condition
as thoy wore when thoy arrived in this
country as far as thoir mental condition is
concerned, but their physical condition is
much improved. From Dr. Gallagher you
cannot get any connoctod conversation,
only that ho considers himself 111 treated,
inasmuch as ho has ho money in his pock
ets to bo n gentlomnn. Ho is coutinnlly
writing lotters to menus to send him
money from sums ranging from i'300 to
2,500. Of courso thoso lotters nro not sent
out. In tho case of Whitehead all he seems
to want is work, In order thnt ho can take
caro of a wife and largo family who hobc
llovosnro deponding upon him for sun-
port. We, of courso, nro awaro of tho fact
thnt ho has no wlfo or family."

John V. Mclntyro, Hon. John E. Flu
gorald, of Boston, nnd Itov. Dr. McGlynn.
Dr. McGlynn said that tho movement was
an ordorly ono. It was an appeal for

they loved their country well. Thoy were
110 ordinary common criminals. The high
est of authority had declared that they
wero not murderous dynnmltors. Thoy
had not been oonvioted upon sulllclent
evidenco. Dr. McGlynn urged that thero
should bo no feeling of hatred manifested
on tho part of Irishmen against the Kn
glish jieopie because of the condition of
Dr. Gallagher and hlteheud. The offi

8UNBHY III SHOOTING.
One Han Receives a Pislol Shot Wound
in the Side.
SCALP OF ANOTHER LAID OPEN.
The former Was Removed to tho Miners'
Hospital This Morning-He Got Only
One of the Six Shots Fired at
Hlm-It Was a Brawl.
There was a desperate brawl on South
Main street, near the Pennsylvania station,
last night, in which one man was shot and
another victim had his scalp badly torn,
although neither was dangerously injured.
1 he limn ulio uas shot is Thomas Ijiifey,
who resides in Toolo's row. Ho received a
bullet in tho left side and near tho arm pit.
Dr. J. 1'ierco Kolierts attended him lust night
and this morning the paticut was removed to
the Miners hnipital.
The developments of tho caso aro some
what peculiar. Shortly after the shots wero
llrc'd the polico appeared upon tho scene and
arrested two Poles, John Smith, of town,
and Anthony Potritiij, of Gilborton. Thoy
were tho only men at the place and no com
plaint was made at the timo that any
body had been shot. Tho Poles weio drunk
and wero taken to the lockup. Upon a search
it was lound that eacli had a revolver
on Ids person. Smith's revolver was fully
loaded, but tho biz ban el of Potritus
weapon were empty. Latcrln tho night tho
men soboted up and were discharged after
paying the costs and borough lines to Chief
liurgess Hum. Potritus had a bad sealii
wound and Dr. Stein was called to attend
him. The doctor put threo stitches in the
gash and the man started for his homo.
Potritus said ho sustained the injury in a
sculllo witli some men ou South Main street.
but neither lie nor his companion could tell
a connected story of the allair.
After tho men wero discharged tho police
learned that Laney had been shut in a sculllo
with two Poles on South Main street and It
then developed that tho injury had been sus
tained in the shooting which, up to that
time, had been looked upon as a hamrless
one. Smith was hunted up, rc-ariestcd and
put under bail for a hearing befuie Justico
(Jardin this evening, l'otrilus could not bo
found, having gone to his home in Gilbertou,
but it is expected ho will ho taken into
custody in timo for tho hearing to-night.
Tho story tallcy tells is that ho was on his
way homo from Mahanoy Plane last night In
company with his brother-in-law, liobert
Sneddon, when they met Smith and Potritus
and accident! jostled them. The latter two
were very drunk and precipitated a light.
Lalloy snys lie picked up a piece of lock to
defend himself and Potritus, who hail drawn
a revolver, was shooting widly. Sneddon
says that Potritus fired six shots iu all. but was
too drunk to aim and it was on tlintWouut
that La llcy ouly received one of the bullets.
