CONFIDED STORY
DURING CALL

Senator Palmer, a Grand Army vet
eran, called at the executive mansion
this afternoon to consult Governor Sui
ger concerning the dedication OF mon

zer is said to have conaded her story
to the senator during his call.
According to other friends In whom
Mrs. Sulzer has confided. she has de-
clared she used some of the governors $
campaign contributions because she
felt that the household was in need
of money"

EXPLAINS POSITION
REGARDING PROBLEM

In explaining his position in regard to
the mooted question, the governor main
tains that the amendment cannot be so
construed as to affect the election of a
senator chosen before it became a part
of the constitution, declaring that the
provision is made that it shall not affect
the term of any senator chosen before
it became ratified.
Governor O'Neal then explains why he
was not inclined to the special election

nave elapsed before the election could
have been held
Delay would also have been occasioned

The governor concludes his statement
with tribute to Congressman CLAYTON.
asserting that His long training and ex-
perlence IN Congress have demonstrated
ms ability and great usefulness
The governors statement Is as follows
Hon Jseph F. Johnston was elected by
the legislature of Alabama United States
senator for the term commencing on the
fourth day of March, 1909, and ending on
the fourth day of March, 1915. The un-
expected death of Senator Johnston
creates vacancy in the term of the

The appointment of Congressman

less than 500 kilograms and letters
from people over the state urging the

ne thought it most likely that he would
make the appointment this afternoon,
stating that he thought it unwise to delay
the matter any longer. 1t is more than
probable that the governor would have
made the appointment yesterday had he
been in Montgomery
Congressman Clayton accompanied the
governor TO Montgomery and had an en-
Sagement with the executive this aft
ernoon. Owing to the fact that the train
from Birmingham was late the governor
went directly home as soon as he arrived
in the city. and did not reach his office
until o'clock this afternoon. Judge John
Pelham, associate justice of the court of

governor, were with the executive at the

him to call special session of the legis-

CAPITOL CORRIDORS

During the afternoon the capitol corri-
dors were thronged with officials and po-
Z iiticals from various parts of the state
most of whom were supporters of Com
eressman Clayton. The waiting room of
the executive offices was crowded, and
although no one knew positively that the
governor was about to make the appoint
ment, there was none who doubted it, and
there was scarcely anyone who doubted
that Congressman Clayton would receive
the plum.
The governor announced the appoint
ment at o'clock, following a brief con-
ference with Congressman Clayton. Many
of those present in the governors office
at the time the appointment was an
nounced had not been able to reach the
governor either in Congressman Clayton 5
behalf or in the interest of any other can
didate.
The new appointee was warmly con-
graduated by dozens of friends over his
acquisition of a senatorial title. and the
new senator accepted the friendly senti-
ments of those present in a most grateful
manner.
