MRS. SUFFERS NAME DRAGGED
INTO HUSBANDS TRIAL

Albany, N. Y, Oct. Melville B.
Fuller, stock broker through whom
Gov. William Sulzer is reported to
have transacted his stock deals,
brought Mrs. Suffers name into the
Impeachment trial for the first time
when he stated that Sulzer had ex-
planned loan he was asking by say
ing it was necessary in order to aid
Mrs. Sulzer in some financial trou-
BILE.
The prosecution resumed its efforts
to prove the charge that the COVER
nor used patronage to seal the lips
of witnesses, and the biggest case in
point is that of Louis Sarecky. They
claim that Sarecky was promised a
$4,000 job as deportation agent of the
state hospital commission in return
for refusal to testify before the Fraw-
ley investigating committee.
If the prosecution completes it's
case today, there is a possibility that
a recess will be taken until either
Saturday or Monday. The public ex-
cuse will be the Jewish New Year,
which begins tomorrow.

day by the special grand Jury which has
been investigating the so-called arson
trust.

ing fifty six alleged members of the
trust We're returned.
The report declares that so ner cent
of the fres in Chicago are OF incendi-

The report asserts. is due to axity on
the part OF the fire insurance companies
in mining the property insured and
the relaxation OF vigilance after policy
