 We discussed the special session, what shuold be done and how much should be attempted explained the governor.
 Mr. Wilson pointed out, incident ally, that while he was seeking to consult as many of his friends as possible, the fact that some of his intimate advisers in the campaign had not yet appeared at the state house should not be construed as a disinclination on his part to con- suit them.
 As a matter of fact" he de- clared, some of my friends are catching up only now with personal business, neglected in the campaign, and really are too busy to come"

Supremacy

Albany, N. Y, Aug. 16.-All nego-
tiations toward having the courts d.
eide who is the governor of New York
were declared off today. For the
third consecutive day William Sulzer,
the impeached governor, and Martin
H. Glynn, who was elected lieutenant
governor, occupied offices in the cap;-
tol, each claiming to be the chi
executive.
Indications were that the deadlock
would last till the meeting of the
Legislature next Tuesday, if not
longer. Neither claimant endeavored
to interfere in any way with the
other
Each seemed to be marking time,
waiting for the other to take the Of
fensive.
New York's two governors, after
epistoary clash of yesterday, continue
today with increased bitterness their
conflict for sole possession of the chief
executives chair and functions.
The proposal of William Sulzer, the
impeached governor, that he and his
rival lay their respectivec laims be-
fore the courts for speedy settlement
came to grief last night Lieut.. Coz
ernor Glynn, who claims that he is
acting governor by virtue of Sulzer'a
impeachment. notified Mr.. Sulzer that
he had no intention of asking am
court, save the court for the trial oi
impeachment to decide the question.
Mr.. Glynn's refusal places the en-
tire situation at sea again. Indica-
ton late yesterday afternoon were
that there would be an amicable ad-
justment. Mr.. Suffers lawyers con
ferred with Mr.. Glynn't regarding
possible methods of taking the issue
to the courts, and it was generally e<
pected that way of doing this would
be devised
Mr. Glynn's refusal to arbitrate W IS
a distinct surprise to Mr.. Suffers

Macon, Ca, Aug. 16.-Wallace Mil
Ter will run for mayor of Macon. He
announced this morning after a col-

he will be a candidate in the ap~

he will undoubtedly receive the as
sistance of numerous able speakers,
who have taken a conspicuous part in
other local municipal campaigns.
