her husband, Governor Sulzer sat till almost dawn, waiting the verdict, there was no sign of life when the legislature adjourned.
 The governor knew pretty well what would be the result was the only word from the executive mansion. The governor had left orders that he was not to be disturbed under any circumstances.
 In the light of the revelations con tained in Mrs. Sulzer's declaration to Senator Palmer, yesterday afternoon, Governor Sulzer's friends are, inclined, today, to view the ordeal which con- fronts him with less apprehension than before his impeachment. By her as sertion that she diverted part of the campaign contributions sent her hus- band to private purposes without his knowledge and used them to purchase stocks in Wall street, she has shorn the articles of impeachment of many of their terrors, his friends declare
 Governor Sulzer consented to permit Mrs. Sulzer's declaration to become public, late last night, only when he found that he could not prevent it and that it lived as a rumor on the lips of every member of the assem- bIv in the city. A close friend of both Governor and Mrs. Sulzer so as- serted today.
 Mrs. SuIzer. it is now thought, will take the eW1LnSSS SL1I1O III 4AOA AASN bands behalf before the court of inn peachment, tell her story in detail ana submit to examination by hostile law -yers Friends say she besought the governor, a week ago, to permit her to tell her story to the public
 According to the quoted expression of Louis Marshall, counsel for MT. Sul- ger. the language of the constitution is not clear on the question of wheth- CT the governor shall vacate his office when the Senate receives the articles of impeachm ment and Governor Sulzef could give himself the benefit of the doubt by refusing to vacate the of1ce-
 The articles of impeachment, based on evidence taken by the F'rawley legislative committee, charged that, as governor elect, William Sulzer filed a, false stateme ent of campaign contr1bu- tions- with the secretary Of state caus. ing "great scandal and reproach of the governor of the state of New York;; that said statement did not contain all the contributions that had been received by him and that in making and in filing such false state ment he was guilty of W11ful and cor rupt perjury"
 Article 3 alleged that while gover- nor, MT. Sulzer's ''fraudulency in- duced'' Louis H. Sarecky, Frederick L. CoIweIl and Melville B. Fuller to withhold testimony from the Frawley Investigating committee and that in so doing he was guilty of 9, felony. It js further alleged in the next article that the governor ''practiced deceit and fraud and used threats and menaces" with intent to prevent the committee and other persons subpoenaed from producing books and papers desired by the committee, thereby being guilty of a, rnisdemeanor.
 It is further charged that prior to his election, the governor appropriat- ed campaign contributions to his own use +tand used the same, or a large part thereof, in speculating in stocks

CALLS DEATH ACCIDENTAL
 POLICE SAY

Investigation by the police depart ment into the strange death of John Calls, 45 years old, as the result of broken neck which he received in boarding-house at 24 Jetland place on Friday night, August 8, tends to dis prove the theory of murder according to detectives engaged upon the case today.
 Calls died in St. vincent's hospital last night without being able to give clear account of the happenings. Z It has been ascertained from Mrs. Addie E. Scott, living upstairs, that Calls returned home pushing a bicycle at midnight After putting it in the cellar he mounted the stairs of the stoop upon which he was heard to fall All seemed quiet and the woman then heard an awful erash.s She got up and lift a match and saw him lying upon the ground. Detective find that the fall from the porch would be about nine feet and that there are sharp rocks below which could have inflicted the wounds found upon his head. The coroner may order an inquest A brother of the deceased met an un- timely end some months a go when he was found dead from gas asphyxia- ton.

OBsEQUIES OF
 RICHARD M. NEAR,
 WE'LL KNOWN BAKER

In the death of Richard M. Near Bridgeport has lost one of it's oldest and most respected citizens. The fu- neral service for Mir Near was held this afternoon at o'clock from his late home, 1 Benham avenue. Rev. Clinton Areson, curate of Trinity Epis- copa1 church, conducted the service. A large number of relatives and friends attended and there were many beau tiful floral tributes. The burial was in Mountain Grove cemetery.
 MI. Near came to Bridgeport in 1855 and had made his home here ever since. He entered the employ of his brother-in-Iaw, the late Aaron w. Wallace, in the bakery on State street. At MT wal1ace's death, his son, A. M. Wallace, Jr. carried on the business and MT. Near remained in his employ until he died. Then he engaged in business for himself.
 While his illness was known to his family his death was a shock to his many friends. He is survived by his widow, two sons, Albert N, and Rich ard A, two daughters, Mrs. Louis Nunnold and Miss Lillian M. Near, and two brothers. John N. and James M. Near.

TAX BOARD MUST FIND FUNDS FOR
 FIRE ESCAPES
Non Compliance With Moo ney's Order Would Entail Forfeiture of State School Fund.

Members of the school board may ask the Board of Apportionment and Taxation to call special meeting and grant them a special appropriation of $SO,00 70 make the necessary changes to the fire escapes, etc., on the public schools which Fire Chief Mooney has ordered. The matter was considered at the meeting of the board Monday night and also later at executive session.
 At this session several members of the board were in favor of. ordering the work done and giving the contrac-s tors doing the work notes to be paid when the board obtains an appropria- tion.
 The majority were opposed to this plan, however, and in favor of hav- ing the Board of Apportionment and Taxation call a special meeting and provide funds to have the work done. The committee on finance and the com mittee on school houses have the mat ter in charge and though members of these committees said today that noth- ing definite had been decided in the ridtter, if is reported that the fon- 1nittees have determined to ask for the special appropriation.
 Some members of the board had hoped that Chief Mooney might mod fly his recommendations in view of the fact that there 1are funds with which to do the work. The chief, how ever, refused to do so and if the board does not comply with his orders by the end of the summer vacation the city will lose the state grant for public school purposes, which. for Bridgeport is $60, GOO
 Chief Mooney made this plain to some members of the board the other day when they discussed the matter with him. He said if he modified his orders and there was a fire in which the lives of school children were lost, he would be blamed. The members of the board feel that the changes rec commended by the chief should be made but they are handicapped by the lack of an appropr iation.
