RECOGNIZED AND
GIVEN CHAMBERS
State Board of Trustees of
Public Buildings Provides
Acting Executive With
Official Quarters

ALBANY. N. Y, Aug. 20.--Martin II.
Glynn was oficially recognized as act-
ing governor of the state by the board
OF trustees of public buildings late to-
day when new rooms in the capitol
were designated as the executive
chamber" for his use. The assembly
parlor and a committee room were set
aside as the acting governors quar-
ters. They are situated on the third
floor, while the executive Offices to
which Governor Sulzer still clings are
on the floor below.
As his first act after moving into
the new offices, Mr.. Glynn issued a
statement outlining his policy. In
part the statement says
II do not intend to employ tenn
porary occupancy of the governorship
for the purpose of partisan warfare.
Under me, as acting governor, there
will be no political earthquakes and
no factional reprisals.
II have no intention of removing
departmental heads for mere political
sworn obligations for the best inter-
ests of the public.
SEEKS COOPERATION
IT ask the hearty cooperation Of
all state officials and all good citf-
!
In the state government until the court
of impeachment shall have rendered
a verdict.
mo act of mine will compound the
present confusion. Official chaos must
end and the affairs of the state pro-
ceed as IL no impeachment proceed
ings were pending. Until the court
OF impeachment renders its decision I
intend to do only such things as may
be necessary for the smooth running
OF the business of the state"
An immediate clash of authority be-
tween the rival governors may follow
Mr.. Glynn's action of today. He an
nounced that he will call upon the
executive clerical staff, which so far
has remained loyal to Governor Sulzer,
for any service which may be needed.
DISMISSAL FOR DIsOBEDIENCE
As an attempt at dismissal will fol-
low the refusal of any employe to obey
either claimant of the governorship, it
is predicted that conflict which of
fers possibilities of bringing the situa-
ton to a head may be precipitated at
any time.
AS Governor Sulzer approached the
capitol steps today on his way from
the executive mansion, three stalwart
young men turned around to stare at
him.

governor asked.

assault your replied one OF the young
men, in astonishment I'VE are simply

The executive, his fears Quieted.
shook hands nervously with the trio
and walked quickly up the steps to
the executive chamber. Sulzer is said
to have had several warnings of a
projected plan to have him attacked by
gangsters or kidnapped.

Mexican refugees arriving here today
They reported that the unrest was not
confined to territory along the inter-

Conditions became so critical at En-

that the entire city council, with its

The action was taken by the jefe
politico, recognized as a firm adherent
to the Huerta government.
Conditions in smaller interior towns
were said to have been even more crit
ica1 than at the capital
The arrivals confirmed plans Of con-
stitutionalist revolutionfsts to open the
