GLYNNr1$ENDS LETTER
Demanding That Sulzer Retire Tom Lawson Comes to Sulzer's Aid. i (National News Association) ' ALBANY. N. Y., Aug. 15. "I recognize Mr. Glynn as governor, and shall rot officially honor commands of Mr. 'Bulzer," said Secretary of State May today. "If he takes exceptions to my opinion I shall ask the attorney general for an opinion and abide by it." It Is understood that Mr. Glynn is to make a request in the form of an official order, which the secretary of state will honor. The two moves will be made to secure at once an opinion from the attorney general. Mrs. Sulzer Better. Mrs. Sulzer, who suffered a nervous breakdown, shows signs of improvement today. She had a good night's rest and was much refreshed this morning, but was still confined to her) led. It was learned today that Martin H. Glynn will resort to the power of his office to force William Sulzer to relinquish his claim as governor in case Bulzer ignores a formal letter informtng him that Glynn is the executive. The letter, which is a brief one, contains the statement that the assembly lias Impeached him and calls on him to turn over possession of the office, the state documents and the custody of the executive chamber forthwith. Public Men Watched. Every man in public life is being watched. The movements are duly recorded and turned over to counsel representing the Sulzer and anti-Sul-zer forces. Public-pirited men who fear that the state may be discredited in the eyes of the nation if the fierce and sensational struggle is allowed to continue, attempted to work a solution through diplomacy but failed. Neither the Sulter adherents nor the opponents of the governor would listen to proposals of arbitration. It has become known that Judge C. Cady Herrisk and others of Mr. Sulrer's counsellors are casting about to Pnd if-they can bring criminal charges agalnst Charles F. Murphy, state leader of Tammany, on the ground that Mr. Murphy had conspired with other Democrats to cause the downfall of the government. At the same time a sensational report was circulated that Mr. Sulzer was urging that a charge of treason be lodged against the assembly managers who were instructed to handle the prosecution at the impeachment trial. Could Have Saved Self. Friends of the governor declare tho executive could have forestalled impeachment in the assembly if he had consented to relinquish his fight for certain state measures. This he refused to do in the belief that the vote would show a majority against the impeachment resolution. Fresh complications have been added by the fact that Aaron J.

TODAY 407 H ANNIVERSARY OF CENTERVLLE BA TTLE
Forty years ago today, August 15, 1873, Richmond became the county seat of Wayne County, the actual transfer of the official records from the old court house in Centerville to the court house in Richmond, having been made on that date. There were exciting scenes enacted in the streets of Centerville forty years ago today when the order of the county commissioners for the removal of records was being carried into effect by the special delegation of court bailiffs and other court house attaches.' The delegation got a warm reception in Centerville, for the court house renioval had engendered a bitter feeling and for a time it appeared that there might be serious happenings.

Some of the more ardent Centervillians wheeled a cannon into the streets and shots were fired against the front wall of the old jail buiiding, the holes made therein still being plainly in evidence to this day. Richmond's campaign to wrest the court house from Centerville began in June, 1872, more than a year being devoted to the various preliminary steps to accomplish the result. At that day Centerville people believed their town
hopelessly ruined and the town was j given a serious backset by the changed conditions that resulted. Time, how ever, has not only wiped out the last vestige of the old bitter feeling, but has made Centerville a much better i and prosperous town than ever.

Thinks Former Richmond Man An Unsafe Advisor For the President.
MAKES INSINUATION Says Hale Left Ardmore, Pa., Years Ago Under Peculiar Circumstances. (National News Association) WASHINGTON, Aug. 15. Senator Penrose today offered a resolution calling upon the president to imorm
the senate whether Dr. Y. Bayard.nn ti
naie nas Deen recently employed Dy i lany of the executive departments. Dr. j Hale is believed to be unofficially representing tne president in .Mexico. Senator Bacon, chairman of the foreign relations committee, objected to immediate consideration of the resolution. Senator Penrose said that Dr. Hale left Ardmore, la., thirteen years ago under circumstances which he did not care to discuss. He said that Dr. Hale was representing himself as an en voy of the president in Mexico, and I at the same time he was exploiting a j publishing concern. Deems Him Unsafe Man. "I consider Dr. Hale a dangerous advisor of the administration," said Penrose. The sooner this connection is broken the better. The gentleman has been strangely active in Mexican affairs, and conveys the impression that he is acting for 'the administra tion." Senator Lodge said he believed the President was acting patriotically. Senator Poindexter offered a resolution calling upon the president to inform the senate what measures have been taken for the protection of Americans in Mexico.

This morning a lady appeared at the parcel post window and asked rates on a package weighing four ounces. When asked what it contained she replied, "It's a dress." Whereupon the clerk was puzzled. "If only four ounces of material is necessary to make adress for a woman, why is the cost of living so high?" he wondered. Was it a practical dress for street wear or forthe stage? With difficulty the clerks are, in their imaginations, stretching that four ounces of material into a gown for a full grown woman. But they are'-faaving difficulties, and the best that they can create is a filmy, diaphanous symbol for sun worshipers; TLAitRIED LIFE, j SECOND YEAR The second series of arti--Ips nn married life, bv Ma- - - . ... bel Herbert Urner, "Mar ried Life the Second Year," are now appearing daily on the magazine page of the Palladium, and they are fully as interesting a3 her articles on "Married Life .the .

Did a Good Job.
1 The work of erecting the new 175 foct chimney at the city light plant has been completed and the men are putting uj the lightning rods on each side of the hug stack as the final step in the job which they commenced five weeks ago tomorrow. The stack is the tallest in the city. The work has progressed steadily and no acicdents have befallen any of the daring workmen who have been perched above the ground for so long. The foundation is of solid concrete built to a distance of 1-M2 feet below the surface of the ground and measuring 36 feet in diameter at the base. The stack is lG feet in diameter at the bottom from the outside of each e inside diameter is 121 at the ;lotora aml 10 fert at the top. The wa is 2 feet wide at lne ba8e and g inches at the top. The Material Used. The material required in the construction of the chimney was 12 carloads of brick, 3 carloads of sand. and seventy barrels of cement. The cost was $6,000, and the weight cf the stack is about five hundred tons, without the foundation, which weighs fully that much itself. The new stack will be used in connection with the additional boilers and engine which soon. The contractors are now at ! work putting in the concrete foundaI tions for the new addition and expect CHA UTAUQUA
