In recommending the dismissal of certain

a city marshal, yesterday, Robert Adam
son, secretary to Mayor Gaynor, took occa-
sion to discuss the abuses that have crept
into the system thro- gb branch omces-
These Offices b saio, have been the
chief source Of probably nine-tenths Of the
frauds and chicanery practised by the
marshals'' He sugg 5ted that such ofhces
be abolished. In the case of Van Leer,
however, he was unable to get any PROOF
Of fraud or misuse of the Office, he says
Nj Adamson said that Morris Einstein.
who had been partner OF Van Leer up
TO July l, when he became an assistant
in the Secretary of States ofice, testlhed
that he had sold out his business to Jo-
eph Ether IN 1908 for $1,000, and that his
resignation as a city marshal was part OF
the consideration given by him
It seems that Ether was appointed to his
place the next day, but Einstein could not
say why Ether was so confident that he
could get the appointment.
Mr.. Ether declared last night that he had
paid nothing TO Einstein for resigning- Mr.
Adamson said be understood that Einstein
had always hs4 d good reputation as a

TWO DIE IN ELECTRIC CHAIR
Murderers Expiate Crimes Com
mitted in This City.

Two men were put TO death in the electric
chair in Sing Sing prison yesterday morn
ing Only one shock of electricity was re-
Quired in each case, and the two execu-
tons were carried out in less than ten
minutes. The second man to be put to
death was pronounced dead just nine min
utes and forty-hve seconds after the first
man had entered the death chamber.
The men who paid the penalty for their
crimes were Carl Loose, a German, who
killed his daughter, and Giuseppe Ganbaro,
an italian. who murdered his brother.
Both crimes were committed in this city.
Gambaro shot and killed his brother
vincenzo on February s, 1909. The men, to-
sether with younger brother, Francesca.
a cripple were employed by the Bent Glass
Novelty Company. at No. 79 Walker street
For some reason Giuseppe, who was a
skilled designer, earning $50 a week. was
discharged, nd blamed his brother Vim
cenzo who was foreman over him, for his
dismissal On the day of the murder he
went to the factory and opened fire on
vincenzo, shooting five shots into the lat
ter's body
Loose killed his daughter and shot his
son, the Rev. Frederick William Loose,
while trying to murder his wife, who es-
capped injury.

FORMER ENSIGN IN PRISON
Discharged from Navy, Landram
Joined Army and Deserted.

Clarence z. Landran, who was at one
time ensign IN the navy. is now i'm
prisoned on Governors Island for having
deserted from the army. He has been
placed in solitary confinement in Castle
William until his sanity can be determined
upon If an examination shall show that
he is sane he will be tried for desertion.
Landram was appointed to Annapolis
from Kentucky in 1896 and in 1902 was made
an ensign. In 1906 he sought promotion to the
rank Of junior lieutenant but failed to
qualify, being pronounced both morally
and professionally unfit in the official re-
port covering his case. He then was dis
charged from the service.
Two years lated Landram enlisted in the
coast artillery a. private. Last March,
however, he left Fort Monroe without
leave, and nothing was heard of him until
he gave himself up to the authorities in
Brooklyn in April.
According to associates of Landram both
in the navy and army, his actions were at
times such as to cast grave doubts upon
his sanity It is thought that after having
filed a place of command in the navy the
fact that in the army he had to obey
others instead of being obeyed became un-
bearable to him.
