Albany, N. Y, Aug. 1S.-William H.
Suffers plan to invoke the arbitrament
Of the courts on the question whether
he or Martin H. Glynn is now the law
full governor of New York was check
mated on Friday by the lieuteant gov
ernor.
Replying to formal proposal by the
impeached executive to submit the is
sue to adjudication on an agreed state
ment of facts, Mr. Glynn declared it
was beyond his power to barter away
any OF the functions attaching to the
Office in which am placed by your i'm
parchment
ANY attempt on my part to do SO,
he said, cor to stipulate a method by
which it might be done, would proper
ly place me in the position you now oc-
cupy-t that OF being impeached for
malfeasance in office"
Mr.. Glynn declared further that he
proposed to perform every function OF
the office of governor except in so far
as am restrained by your illegal ac-
tion or by physical force
The announcement of the lieutenant
governors policy came late at night
and followed negotiations between the
respective counsel of the two men in
the afternoon, which it was then sup
posed had resulted in virtual agree
ment to take the case to the court of
appeals.
The letter was delivered to Mr.. Sui
ger at the executive mansion.
Subsequently a horde of irate Muir
ply followers suggested. through their
spokesman, that Mr. Glynn turn out
regiment of the National Guard, which
is ready to obey his commands. and
forcibly wrest the scepter of govern
ment from Mr.. Sulzer.
Again Mr.. Glynn shook his head.
1t is the purpose of Mr., Suffers
counsel, who contend that indictments
for high treason against Tammany Boss
Murphy and his lieutenants will be
asked for, to maintain before the court
Of impeachment that Tammany Hall
coercion brought about the impeach-
ment of Mr.. Sulzer.
The serious condition Of Mrs. Sulzer
necessitated the recall OF DR.. Robert
Abrahams from New York No official
bulletin was forthcoming from the ex-
ecutive mansion concerning Mrs. Sui
ger, but an afternoon bulletin, dictated
by DR.. Abrahams after he had learned
of the patients condition over the tel
phone, stated that she was still in a
precarious condition" with tempera-
ture of 102 and pulse 11S.
Washington, Aug. 18.-The federal
government soon may be confronted
with the problem of determining
whom It will recognize as governor of
New York.
Under the Dick law, by which the
National Guard enjoys government
aid, acquisitions for arms, ammunition,
supplies and transportation must be
approved by the governor.

PRESIDENT GIVES HIS VIEWS
Wilson Gives His Ideas on Rural Cred.
its in Statement From White
House.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE follow
ing statement was issued at the
White House embodying the views of
President Wilson on rural credits:
Again and again during the dis
cussioin of the currency bill it has
been urged that special provision
should be made in it for the facilitat-
ing Of such credits OF the farmers OF
the country who stand in need Of
agricultural credits as distinguished
from ordinary commercial and indus
trial credits. Such proposals we're
not adopted because such credits
could only be imperfectly provided
for in such measure. The scope and
character of the bill, It's Immediate
and chief purpose could not be made

ests of the farmer require.

RECEIVES PEACE PLANS
PRESIDENT WILSON'S MESSAGE
is FINALLY DELIVERED.
Mexico's Provisional Head May 30 a
Candidate for the Presidency Of
the Republic.

Mexico City, Aug. 1S.--President
Wilson's message to President Huerta
is now in the possession of the gov
eminent, which may be expected to re-
ject it or to return some answer short
ly. Foreign Minister Gamboa in the
two conferences with John Lind, Presi-
dent Wilson's special representative
in Mexico, came to the conclusion with
the consent of President Huerta, that
the simplest way to an end was to &C
cept the document Cor President Huer-
ia and his cabinet and study it.
1t would appear now that as t e
message has been in the possession
of the government since Thursday
night, and no action concerning it has
yet been announced, there is good
chance for its acceptance.
President Huerta gave Friday night
what was considered to be an in
timation that he would be can
didate for election to the presidency
in the autumn. When asked as to
his intentions, he said it was unde-
sirable for him to make at this time
a statement as to the possibility of
his candidacy but that he might an
nounce his intention in fortnight
Washington Aug. 1S.-The Huerta
government, through conferences be-
tween John Lind, President Wilson'S
personal representative, and Foreign
Minister Gamboa, now knows the
viewpoint of the United States and its
desire for only a peaceful and friendly
solution Of Mexico's troubles. The
formal communication will be trans
mitted to representatives of foreign
powers here Monday.
1t is expected in diplomatic circles
that President Huerta will formally
announce a call for an early election,
even setting the date. 1t is regarded
as possible that the constitutionalists
would participate in an election con-
Quoted by nonpartisan commission
Of Mexicans, a plan now under discus
sion here as an alternative that might

reason therefore exists for protecting
whatever exists that is worthy. And
the case of st. Johns chapel of Trim
ity parish is a notable case in point.
The beautiful old building in Varick
street has had many narrow escapes
already, and Trinity Corporation can
hardly claim the credit for its sur
vival into it's one hundred and fourth
year. Rather the vigilance of the
newspapers has saved it. It is the
newspapers again which have widely
advertised those recent plans for
street improvements to meet new con-
ditions in the region of west side
warehouses which contemplated once
more the sacrifice of st. Johns rather
than, for instance, any part of the
ugly pile of brick across the way--the
freight station which was the usurper
of the park which once faced the
chapel, and though the fashion that
frequented it has moved far uptown,
should still face it. Publicity is doing
its part. For the rest the present
status of affairs is indicated in the fol-
lowing statment from George Nc
Aneny, who, as borough president Of
Manhattan, has the streets in charge:
1T is recognized" says Mr.. Mean
eny, ''by all who want to preserve the
old landmarks Of New York, that moth
ing should be left undone to prevent
the demolition OF st. Johns chapel.
The matter is in allegiance now, pend
ing the acquisition by the city of the
land which is to be taken in connec-
tion with the widening of Varick
street, When the map has been fixed,
however, the board of estimate and
apportionment will have the power to
change the line of either the roadway
or the sidewalk. propose to ask the
board to take action upon this not
later than the first meeting in Septem-
Der. It is impracticable to obtain ac-
ton before that time, because any
change in the plans at present would
involve the reopening of the entire
proceeding for widening Varick street,
and that would mean long delay"
st. Johns chapel is one of the two
church edifices that were standing on
Manhattan island a century ago, the
other being st. Paul's chapel, between
Fulton and Vesey streets on Broad
way. The Trinity church, which then
stood In Broadway opposite Wall
street, was not the present Trinity
church, which is the third on the
same site, the. first, consecrated in
1898, having been destroyed in the
great fire of 1776, and q subsequent
structure, erected after the Revolu-
ton, pulled down to make way for the
present one. ST. Georges, on what
was known as Chapel hill at Cliff (then
Van Cliff and Beekman streets, was
the first of the Trinity chapels to come
into existence It was consecrated in
1852, but became separate charge in
1911. The edifice was burned in 1874
and rebuilt the following year. and
after 1916 rebuilt once again on the
ground on which it now stands. in
Rutherfurd place.

mary. Either for personal or pOilt-
lcal reasons, he is unalter&bly opposed
to Stockton for the senate, and we
must conclude that the opposition is
for political reasons, as Stockton is
the father of progressive democracy
in the state.-DeLanG Record.
Why. Brother Prevatt, you don't
know Jordan's record. He is long
ways ahead OF all of you in progress
iveness. Efe was the first editor in
the state TO protest against the ag-
gressions of the railroads. He. be-
gan by attacking the old Florida Rail-
way and Navigation Co, now the Sea
board Air Line, and he followed this
with a demand for a railroad commits
sion. That was away back yonder in
1881, before any of you newly-fiedged
progressives dared to lift a voice in
public against the greed, rapacity and
arrogance of the railroads. Largely
to the clamor made by him at the
time is due the existence of the rail-
road commission and the restrictions
imposed upon the railroads.
Further, about the same time, he
proposed a division of the state and
advocated it so persistently that the
late Col. T. w Harris established in
Ocala a newspaper especially devoted
to that proposition.
Later, at Leesburg, he instigated a
| fight by the orange growers there
and at Citra to recover unjust charg-
es levied upon them by the Florida
| Southern Railway, and the growers
won out before both the railroad COM
mission and the supreme court All
the while Jordan had so-called free
pass" in his pocket, and it was not
taken away from him.
Wilkinson Call was the original pro-
gressive. and Jordan supported him
for United States senator until Call
suffered political slaughter at the
hands of his trusted friend, ]. N. C.
| Stockton.
But why pursue the record further?
Col. Frank Harris of the Ocala Ban
ner can give all of it, if necessary.
Jordan has good reasons for not
supporting Mr.. Stockton.-Punta Cor
da Herald.
