& Ny understanding is that Congress
enacted this Law on the theory and
with the belief that those to whom
land had been allotted on the White

fair to assume that intelligence and
competency were the bases on which
the honest and humane members Of
Congress voted for the Clapp Act; that
Congress intended to do so arbitrary
and cruel a thing, as to pass an Act,
the effect of which, is to despoil the

OF course, if the protecting arm of

After a conference with B. P.
Waldo Of New Orleans, repre-

eral instructed the federal attor-
ney not to oppose bail If Brito would
agree not to leave New Orleans and
would report to the United States
marshal every "a hours. Waldo ask
ed for the prisoners release outright,
but the government held the United
States was under obligations under
the treaty to give Mexico maximum
of 40 days in which to show that he
should be extradited. The Mexican
government would be asked to hasten
the necessary papers as officials here
are inclined to believe the offenses
were political. According to. reports
to the government Brito is accused
of robbery in that he took state
money to pay his troops. and of muir
der resulting from demand that he
surrender to the Mexican govern
ment. A controversy ensued and
Brito is alleged to have killed man.

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 19.-GoVernor
William Sulzer was impeached today
by the assembly. The action of the
lower house of the state legislature
under the legislation the governor
must vacate his office pending final
adjudication of the impeachment is
sues by the senate and court of ap-
peals sitting jointly as a trial court.
Indications are that he will contest
bitterly the theory of the opposition
that he becomes automatically barred
from exercising the functions of the
office the moment the articles of i'm
peachment are formally presented to
the senate and that he win be dis
qualified from resuming the duties
of executive until the court Of inn
parchment fails to sustain these
charges.
This afternoon, eight hours after
the assembly adopted the articles Of
impeachment, the governor was in
consultation with legal advisors in
the legislative chamber and has not
announced his intention.
The governor reached the capitol
shortly after Il o'clock, He smiled
cheerily to correspondents who greet
ed him as he mounted the front steps
of the capitol and posed good natured-
ly for battery Of camera men.
TITS fine morning, gentlemen"
he said.
Lieutenant Governor Martin Glynn
came into Albany from his summer
home at Cedar Hill during the fore
noon and went to his newspaper Of
flee as usual. He declined to COM
ment on the subject. If Governor
sulzer is deposed Mr. GIynn will au-
tomatically take his place.
The fact that the various state de-
partments and bureaus are divided
in their allegiance to the executive
and the democratic organization that
is seeking to depose him stimulates
interest in the complicated situation.
The possibility Of two men endeavor-
ing to discharge the functions Of the
chief executive at the same time sug-
gests a chaotic condition with which

Mccarthy operated through Mas

sometimes making a killing" and
sometimes meeting with dire failure.
After one OF his successful raids he
would hurry back to New York, for
the lure Of the big town was all-com-
pelling.
After one Of the trips to New York
in which he had dissipated even more
violently than on previous stays in
the big city, he decided to take the
field alone. He operated with marked
success and made a number OF rich
hauls before attempting to tackle
any real big job. Then it was that
he received letter from Walter"
calling him to New England again,
and as he stepped off a train at a
little railway station near Brattle-
boro town constable, wearing a
badge as big as pie plate, approach
ed and peered long and earnestly at
McCarthy's face.

Mccarthy was locked up, indicted,
tried and convicted, and sent to the
State penitentiary for seven years.
He vowed he intended to turn
straight and win back the regard Of
his old friends in Philadelp hia,
among whom were some of the best
people in the city.
While in the Vermont penitentiary
Mccarthy was visited by the post
Office inspectors, and to them he
made a detailed confession, as we'll
as giving them information about
other robberies in all parts of the
country, which proved of inestima-
Bile value to them inNrounding up the
band they were seeking so long. 1t
| was because of this aid that the pos
tai authorities interfered in McCar-
thy's behalf and succeeded in bring
ing about executive clemency in his
case.
Then they promised to aid him to
lead an honest lits and find him en-
ployment that would keep him away
from his Old haunts and associates.
Just how well Mccarthy lived up to
his resolutions, however, Is shown
by later events, which will be told in
another chapter OF this series.
