GLYNN GIVEN TITLE
BY ATTORNEY GENERAL
Board of Building Trustees Ignores
Governor SuIxer and Refuses to
Meet With Him.

Albany, N Y, Aug. 20.-When the
to impeach William Sulzer as gov
ernor Lieut. Gov Martin H. Glynn
automatically succeeded to the gov
ernorship and will continue to
hold that office until Governor
Sulzer is acquitted or the impeach-
ment proceedings are dismissed by
the court of impeachment.
This Is the decision upon which both
sides in the controversy have been
pinning SO much faith and the ruling
apparently opens the way for Glynn to
assume the reins of control without
much further fight.
The decision followed close upon the
failure of the trustees of state public
buildings to meet with Governor Sui
ger Monday. 1t had been intend
ed for the board to meet and
decide upon giving rooms to Lieu-
tenant Governor Glynn for his Of
fee as acting executive, but when 1t
was found that Governor Sulzer would
attend the meeting and attempt to act
as chairman, those members who are
in opposition to him ignored the gov
ernor and did not appear.
The support of Suffers contention
that he is still in the executive chair
has been half-hearted, but the decision
of the attorney general undoubtedly
will drive the governors few friends
from his side and add to GIynn's rae
+i0p AdiutaDt General Hamilton al
ready has recognized Glynn.

DECLARES inch

New York, Oct. 16.-Francls Inch,
the boyish looking Briton who com
manded the burned steamer Nolturno,
came to port tonight, bringing eighty
seven survivors, passengers and crew
of the ill-starred vessel.
His story of the disaster III which
1876 lives were lost preceded him BY
wireless, but Inch told the tale In
simple phrased and modestly spoken
details, vividly picturing the pano-
rama of the Volturno's losses and the
rescue of over 100 persons.
Inch said there was no coWaluice
among the officers and the men did
not rush to the ships boats as the
steerage survivors stated yesterday,
crowding women aside.
Besides defending his own officers
and men, Inch had no criticism fof
the tactics of the boats that stood by.
