New York, Aug. 1e.-New York's
two governors after an epistolary
clash yesterday, continued with in
creased bitterness the conflict for the
sole possession Of the chief executive 8
chair and functions. The proposal of
William Sulzer. the impeached gov
ernor, that he and his rival lay their
respective claims before the courts for
a speedy settlement came to grief.
Lieutenant Governor Glynn, who
claims to be acting governor by vir-
tue Of Sulzer's Impeachment, notified
Sulzer that he had no intention of
asking any court, save the court for
the trial Of impeachment, to decide
the question.
Glynn's refusal places the entire
matter at sea again. Indications yes
terday were that there would be an
amicable settlement. attorneys for
both parties holding conferences re.
garding the manner Of taking the
case to court. Glynn finally. however,
refused to listen to the proposals say
ing that 1t was beyond his power to
barter away any functions attached

placed by your Impeachment"

On arriving at the house, they came
upon his body lying just outside Of the

There were no marks of violence
upon the body, and nothing that would
seem to point to foul play of any
kind. 1t is said that Ronning's heart
had been weak for the last year or so.
and it is supposed that the intense
