A MISSING GOVERNOR;
WHERE IS Mr.. SULZER?
Disappears on His Way to Al
bany; C. F. Murphy Under
Suspicion.
VAIN SEARCH IN CAPITAL
Last Seen in Company with
Large. Thick-Set, Ruddy-
Faced Man, Who Looked
Well Pleased.

Governor elect Sulzer disappeared
yesterday. He was supposed 10 have
gene TO Albany on an afternoon train.
He did not arrive there. His secre-
tary here, who said he himself would
not go to the capital until Saturday,
said he was sure his chief had gone
To Albany. He was not able, how
ever. to give any definite information
as TO what train had been taken.
The answer that was given TO the
puzzle by some of those who searched
all over the city for the Governor
elect last night was that he had gone
into a sub-cellar with Charles Francis
Murphy, the Democratic boss, TO
settle several questions Of patronage
and policy. 1t was rumored that sew
cral OF the sub bosses Of the state were
also at the secret and sub-cellar con-
clave.
Mr.. Murphy is not going 10 the in
auguration He did that two years
ago when Governor Dix went into Of
flee. He staid there for while getting
the ship of state under way. 1t caused
a lot of criticism. He decided not TO
repeat it.
II was thought more modern states

rlession that the Governor elect had
gone to Albany so as 10 throw off the
track any inquisitive persons who
might he inclined to want to know
what Mr.. Sulzer was up to. Then the
Governor elect and the Boss" could
get together quietly here and talk over
the little matters at stake
The Governor elect was traced TO the
Hoffman House. where he spent Sat-
urday and Sunday nights. He gave up
his rooms there at noon at 3 o'clock,
+ o'clock or early in the evening, ac-
cording to the clerk YOU happened TO
talk to-
At the Hotel Knickerbocker it was
said the Governor -elect was not there
and had not been there. At Delmon-
ico's. early in the evening and later.
il was denied that Mr.. Sulzer or Mr..
Murphy or any Democrats OF promi-
nence small or great, were or had been
there.
Along about midnight one more COM
municative than others at the rendez-
vous Of the plain people" said that the
Governor had just left; that he had
been there all evening. They did not
know who was with him.
However, it was learned that one OF
the party was a large, thick set,

wearing glasses and self-satisfied air.
