SULzER CUTS OLD TIES
Governor Elect Will Devote
Whole Time to Office.

Before going TO Albany TO assume his
duties as Governor. William Sulzer is
breaking all his old ties. Not only Is
he giving up his law business, turning
all his cases over TO some one else; not
only is he giving up his home here. but
he is severing every other business con-
nection that he has had and is also re-
signing from almost all OF his clubs and
other organizations.
The Governor does not expect to be in
this city much in the future, at least
not until after the Legislature has adj
journed. lie Is declining scores OF din
ner engagements. He has accepted only
three invitations, one to attend the Amen
Corner dinner, another the dinner of the
St. Patrick Society and the other an
annual birthday dinner that has been
given for him each year by his friends
on the East Side.

of Discovery.

The body Of Mrs. Lydia Edwards sixty
wears old. OF No. 22s Winthrop street,

an alley adjoining her house at 10 o'clock
yesterday morning by Otto Rahnert, an
old man, who uncovered the body while
clearing away some OF the snow. lie lives
on the second floor Of the house next door.
The Snyder avenue police station was no
titled. and the body was removed there
and later taken 10 the morgue.
Mrs Edwards was fully clad. There
was a bundle beside her containing new
dress. and she held a Persian lamb mum
in her right hand A search OF her cloth
ing at the station house revealed SS4.
The body bore 40 signs OF bruises. DR..
Alexander, Of the Kings County Hospital
was summoned and said that the woman
had been dead for at least forty-eight
hours.
IL is the theory Of tho police that the
woman started OH a journey Christmas
Eve and dropped dead I'm the alleyway.
Neighbors say that Mrs. Edwards always
used the alley when she wanted TO enter
her home or so out. She lived alone at
No. 229 Winthrop street for six years.
The property was In her name, and she
had the reputation OF being woman in
moderate circumstances.
Yesterday morning Otto Rahnert said
he needed little exercise and would try
his hand at removing some Of the snow
from the alley and front OF the house.
He had hardly started his work when his
shovel struck all obstruction. which
proved TO be the arm OF a body. The old
man. who is rather near sighted, drew
close TO the body and then gave cry or
alarm. When he was seen later In tho
day he was still suffering from the effects
OF the shock his discovery gave him.
Five o'clock last night woman called
up the Snyder avenue station and SAID
she was the sister OF Mrs Edwards. She

chants had agreed to cooperate with tho
association, and only on emergency cases
would they receive packages after /
o'clock in tho afternoon. Traffic patrol
men, he declared. instead OF allowing the
snme amount OF tims 10 tho east and

with empty cars would pick out some
other street besides Fifth avenue in going
for their employers BY actual count It

similar area allotted to them between 4
and s o'clock, when they were returning.
