that detectaphoncs were installed i'm tho

When Judge McCalrs attention was
called 10 the suggestion OF a dctectaphone
at Albany and the iHtImatiou that he was
seeking Suffers Endorsement for the chief
iudgeship. he asserted with show Of
anger. that he didn't care what Sulzer
said

After reading the Sulzer story yesterday
Mr. Mccall issued this statement:
Il have read the article in The Mail
and Express purporting TO be an inter
view with Governor Su!zer. II IL needless
for nc to say that there is not single
word OF truth i'm any statement that he
makes in reference 10 me having made
any representations to him or my saying
any of the things that he states | said.
Il never had any such conversation or
conversations with him, and | can at
tribute il only to the workings OF dis
ordered brain.
There is another aspect OF IT which.
however, ] ask the people TO take as per-
haps finding a promoting cause for these
wild assertions That is. that patiently he
must be in the employ OF this paper that
has been venomous in its opposition to
me. and they are undoubtedly schooling
this poor, misguided man TO make these
lntruthful statements so that they may
work their own ulterior motives.
81 deny categoricaly everything that he
las Sald, ana perhaps IL HiISHI NV '' an
unwholesome suggestion to this news
paper If it would cease vlifyins through
such instruments as it has selected, and
instead of sensationally trying TO increase
its circulation TO use the money that 1t Is
having for such purposes I'm returning to
the city the money obtained for services
never rendered OF course, ! refer TO the
contract obtained for advertising election
notices
THE Evening Mali published the de-
NAL in full yesterday. with this significant
warning attached:
when Judge Mccall says something
thai Is worth while answering The Even
ing Mail will print it and will make
prompt reply.
Meanwhile, we suggest that Judge Nc
Call give close attention To the statements
made by Mr.. Sulzer and that he be very.
very careful about his denials
There may have been detectaphones at
the Peoples House even while Mayor
ATTY candidates were there seeking in
dorsements after having failed to smooth
things out for the chief judgeship Of the
Court of Appeals
