for the 100 shares of Big Four bought by Colwell. If this is proved there no longer will exist any ques- tion that money contributed to the Sulzer campaign fund was used for speculating in Wall street. Such use of campaign money, the Frawley com mittee asserts, constitutes larceny.
 The committee and Counsel Rich ards insist that large contributions to the NSulzer fund also came from F. Augustus HeinZe, Bernard M. Baruch, Archibald s. White, Lehman Bros, bankers; Theodore w. Meyers, Jo- sephthal, Louchein & Co, bankers, and w. R. Hearst
 It is believed by the committee that Sulzer received at least $75,O00. Un- der oath in his report to the secretary of state he said he received $5,460, and checks for more than that sum, not one of which was reported, have been produced before the committee and a bank account that jumped near ly $30,000 has not been explained.

TAMMANYIZED COMMITTEE CON- SIDERS REVELATIONS WAR
 RANT "QUlCk ACTlON."
METHOD AS YET UNDECIDED
Removal Through Agency of h. dictment and Criminal Prose
 cution Decision Soon.

New York, Aug 9.-Convinced that the investigation of Gov. Sulzer's al leged' stock gambling undertakings and hidden campaign contributions has reached a point where only two or three further hearings will be need ed to prove official, as we'll as moral obliquity, the Tammanyized inyesti- gating committee is on the eve of formulating plans for the removal of Sulzer from office.
 Whether the committee will recom- mend the governors impeachment or seek his removal through the agency of indictment and criminal prosecu- tion is a question hinging on develop ments at later hearing and possibly final committee sessions in Albany next week.
 This sudden, though not uneXpect- ed, determination ts get quick ac- tion," as Counsel Richards expressed it, followed the latest hearing in the council chamber, when further light was shed on Sulzer's alleged stock dabbling and additional information offered regarding the unreported con. tributions to his campaign fund.
 Check Went Through Broker.
 The one big and highly essential development was the frank admission of Philip Boyer of the defunct broker age firm of Boyer, Griswold & Co., that the campaign check for $500 given Sulzer by John Lyn of New York went through his former broker age house and was deposited by the firm Oct. 16, 1912.
 In the same month, according to the recollection of Boyer, Frederick H. Colwell of Yonkers, alleged by the Frawley committee to be agent for Gov. Sulzer in his stock speculations bought of Boyer, Griswold X Go. 100 shares of Big Four railroad stock.
 It was maintained before the com mittee that Gov Sulzer Oct F, 1912 opened an account with Fuller x Gray, brokers, of T Broadway, and purchased outright 200 shares of Big Four stock.
 It is the prediction of the FTawley committee that when this firms books are produced it will be shown that the Lynn check went in part payment

Sex Hygiene as Part of Curriculum, and Separation of Sexes, Pro-
 posed in Kansas City.

Kans3 City, Aug. S.-In an effort to fix the blame for the death of Meta Zook, the 1S-year-old Westport high school girl, following what a coroner's autopsy showed to have been a crimi- nal operation, County Prosecutor Ja- chief of detectives, in the investiga- ton of the case.
 Detectives Johnson and Peterson went to the homes of many of the boys whose names have been men, toned in the case, but found only two of them.
 Every one of the 16 Westport high school youths, members of Armour boulevard frat bunch,' involved in he death of Miss Zook, will be round d up as a result of the revelations of Miss Genevieve Johnston, Miss Zook' hum, on the stand at the coroners inquest.
 The prosecutor intimated that he lad information which might be the asis for the springing of sensation turing the investigation today.
 There is no use in anyone trying dodge this case" said the prose tutor, for I am going to the bottom of it. Every boy who had anything to io with it, or who has any knowledge f the affair that hear of, will be re- 1uired to make a statement And voDt tho XfboIo trutb
 'I want to convict the person or persons directly responsible for the leath of Meta Zook, and l intend to leave no stone unturned until this has ,een accomplished"
 The most important result of the Took case where the schools in gen eral are concerned probably will be he introducing of sex hygiene into he curriculum. Judge w. T. Bland of he board of education is in favor of such a course as an important step toward preventing such tragedies.
 The death of Miss Zook has stirred parents of children going to high schools to such an extent that rules will be adopted before the September term to prevent the existence of fra ternities and prohibit dances and oth- CT social entertainments except those under the eyes of instructors.

 ters In His Sight.

Mexico City, Aug. S.-Seventeer Mexicans have paid with their lives for attacking the daughters of Mat thew Gourd, an American farmer near Tampico. American farmers par ticipated in the execution, according received here.
 The Americans, joined by Mexican land owners in the district of Atasca dor, near Tampico, organized a posse and rode into the hills in search oi the outlaws who tied Gourd to a tree and offered indignities to his two daughters in sight of their helpless father. The outlaws were found and defeated in a fight and several oi them were captured.
 The 17 men killed by the posse in cluded those slain in the fighting and eight put to death by the vigilantes afterward
 A few weeks ago a number of the Mexican land owners joined with the Americans in the formation of a vigilance committee, but this was the first time the committee had taken the offensive against criminal bands
 It is reported that 24 women of the Atascador colony have gone into Tam pico as a precautionary move. The government here does not yet admit the truth of the attack on Gourd and his daughters.
