Statement of Sulzer.
learned that SuIzer intends to leave Al
bany Sunday, but his destination Is a
secret. His statement follows:
"In response to request from friends
throughout the state for some expression
from me, I can say at this time that ]
am glad my trial is over.
by virtue of power beyond the pres
ent control of our electorate now hand
back to the people the commission they
gave me, and / hand 1t back to them
untarnished and unsullied.
my lips have been sealed for weeks,
during which time l have patiently sub
mitted in silence to abuse and villif1cation.
However, after stating my case to my
counsel and by their advice. August ii
made the following statement:
81 deny that l used campaign con-
tributions for personal use.
Denial of Speculation. O.
az deny that / speculated in Wall
street or used money contributed for cam
paign purposes to buy stocks either in my
own name or otherwise. l never had an
account with Fuller & Gray or Boyer d
GriswoId. l never heard of these firms
do not know the members. The stock
matter with Harrison & Fuller was not a
speculative account, but loan account
made upon stocks as collateral, which
stocks had been acquired and paid for
years before my nomination for the ONCE
of governor and from other sources imam
Harris & Fuller.
"'Certain checks given me during the
campaign were deposited to my personal
account and thereafter I paid the amount
of said checks to the campaign commit
tees.
In filing my statement or receipts ana
disbursements 1 relied upon information
furnished me by the persons in immediate
charge of my campaign, and l believed
the statement furnished by them to me
at the time to be accurate and true
Statement Not Disproved.
mo legal evidence was adduced on the
trial which disproved that statement.
September IA 1 gave out another state
ment as follows:
1.-The stories that 1 am going to re-
sign are false and malicious. The pur-
pose of circulating them must be evident
to any one. l have said some harsh
things about some of the senators and
they have said some hard things about
me. but this is a trial, not a political
fight.
Il believe most of them are large
enough and honest enough to rise above
any personal feeling and do me justice. ,
Those are the only statements or inter-
views I have made or given out since the
assembly, by orders of the boss passed
the resolution Of impeachment.
''Of course, when issued the last state
ment / did not think Senators Wagner.
Frawley, Transporter, Sanner. Brown,
BlauveIt and Thompson would act as my
judges, as they were either interested per-
sonally in the outcome of my trial, or had
acted as my prosecutors and condemned
me before trial.
Impropriety Cited.
