Secret Service Detective Gallaher
Produced it in
Court.

     Albert L. Gallaher, secret service detective, was called to the stand at 11.10 o'clock He told Mr. Penney his business and testified that he was standing eight or ten feet from President McKinley when he was shot. He added:
     "I was there to keep the people moving. The reception, had been going on only a few moments when two shots were fired. "I looked and saw the defendant standing directly in front of the President with something white and smoking in his hand. I sprang forward, and heard Foster's voice say: 'Get the gun, Al.; get the gun.'
     "In the defendant's hand was the gun and a handkerchief about it. He was lying on the floor."
     "Did you get the revolver?"
     "I did, but someone knocked it out of my hand."
     "Did you get the handkerchief?"
     "I did."
     "Have you that handkerchief now ?"
     "I have."
     Then came one of those intense moments when the nerve of every soul in the court-room was strained.
     Mr. Gallaher reached in his coat pocket and withdrew the handkerchief which was over the revolver which was used on the President. It was passed to the attorneys for the defense, who in handing it from one to another, passed it before the face of Czolgosz. The latter bent his head.
     "I felt someone's arm around my neck," resumed Mr. Gallaher, "but broke away soon, and conferred with Mr. Cortelyou, who told me to get the gun. I found it in the possession of a corporal."
     "This handkerchief," said District Attorney Penney, "has been in your possession ever since the shooting?"
     "It has."
     Judge Lewis at this juncture began the cross-examination.
     "Does the handkerchief look like a lady's handkerchief?" asked he.
     "It does not. It looks like a small handkerchief for a gentleman."
     The witness was excused.
