Said She Was Mrs. Sulzer.


Trier, for his associate. then in Eu-
rope, mailed a $1,000 check 10 the sui
ger home. A woman purporting to be

phone and said the letter had been de-

who purported TO be Mrs. Sulzer ac-
knowledged, over the telephone, lie re-
ceipt OF the second check. Mrs. sui
zer, Trier said, was a relative OF
Strauss. the donor, by marriage.
Morris Tekusky, a saloonkeeFer or
New York City and power in Tam
many Hall. testified 10 giving the cam
6idate a check for $50 which was not
entered In the statement of the Sulzer
campaign receipts. His testimony
furnished the occasion for hot de-
bate among the !, wyers. The defence
endeaVored TO shut il out, on the
ground that this particular matter was
not mentioned in the articles of inn
peachment. Their success would have
meant that practically two-thirds OF
the case prepared by the board of i'm
peachment managers would have fallen
10 the ground.
President Cullen ruled that this testi-
mony should be admitted showing his
belief that the court should hear 10 the
fullest degree all the facts bearing in
any way on the charges of perjury
theft and corrupt use Of official powers
which the Impeachment articles charge
That ruling was sustained by unani-
nous vote of the court.
Charles A. Stadler, who raised a
campaign fund of several hundred dol
lars among the brewers. said Sulzer
sent for him in September. 1912. when
he was seeking the Democratic nom
ination for Governor. Sulzer asked the
witness TO go to 18th street" and
intercede for him in his efforts 10 win
the nomination. Stadler said he did,
reported the events Of his mission to
Sulzer and received hearty thanks.
Sulzer Insists on Tcstifying.
Frederick l.. Colwell who is alleged
to have purchased certain stock for
Sulzer, giving in payment money and
checks which bore the Sulzer indorse-
ment. and had been given as campaign

The Impeachment managers asked the
Sulzer counsel TO-DAY if he would he
produced. No definite answer was
given. but one was promised later

not know Colwel's address.
Through varioIs witnesses there were
entered on the records OF the court to-
day so many checks sent TO SulZer and

II could be used for travelling ex-
penses." This is significant because
candidate, under the law. does not
have to give an accounting OF personal
and travelling expenses in his cam
paign.
Ralph Trier, associated in business
with Frank V. Strauss, also brought
Mrs. Sulzer's name into the case in
such a way that 1t may be used later
by the defence in It's contention that
Mrs. Sulzer, not Governor Sulzer, got
some Of the campaign contributions
and used them in Wall Street.

AGAINST SULzER
NLEC|SLAT|VE Fight

ALBANY. n. Y. August THAT the
extraordinary session of the Legislature
which convened June 16. has not ad-
journed sine die and was within its
rights. in authorizing the Frawley legis-
lative committee to investigate the cam.
paign contributions and expenses OF Gov.
SuIzer is the conclusion reached by At
torney General Carmody in two opinions
rendered today at the request OF the
executive.
Mr.. .Carmody holds that the Legislature
acted legally when It took q recess July
% to August IL Gov. 6ulzer has con-
tended that the legislature abdicated in
functions because at the session when the
recess was taken quorum was not
present.
In holding that the committee has
power to Investigate campaign funds
Mr.. Carmody points out that this Ques-
ton was opened by the governor himself
when he recommended TO the special SEES
sion legislation throwing around omcid
primaries all the safeguards Of the gene
eral election laws.
Although the governor has urged Of
ficials and other citizens to pay no at
tention to requests from the COMMITTEES
for information concerning campaign
contributions the attorney general holds
that any witness who refuses to attend
or answer pertinent questions may be
committed by q judge OF court Of rec
ord.
This ruling may have an important
bearing on the position of Louis 4.
Sarecky, former confidential secretary 20

answer questions concerning the govern

BOYS VACATION SCHOOL
CLOSES FIRST SESSION
Work Done by Youngsters
More Encouraging Than in
Previous Years.

Vacation school for boys of the fifth,
sixth, seventh and eighth grades public
schools, which has been conducted by the
Y. M. C. A. Institute for the eighth sea-
son this summer closed the first session
of six weeks yesterday. Principal Charles
A. Johnson of the Smallwood School, who
has had charge Of the work since its
start. eight summers ago, stated yester-
day that the work done by the thirty
boys who have been registered had been
more encouraging than in any previous
year.
Tomorrow the second term opens, and
any boy who has failed of promotion in
the grade or who wishes to strengthen
himself in arithmetic, grammar and SPELL
ing, will find this Y NJ. c. A. vacation
school for boys an ideal arrangement for
supplementing the work Of the public
schools. BY arrangement with the public
school authorities any boy enrolling and
receiving on completion of the work the
commentator of Principal Johnson will
be entitled to promotion by the grade
teacher.
In explanation Of the plan Director
Of Education Jones said that while the
vacation school is designed for those
boys Of the public schools who have
failed to secure promotion or who wish
to prepare more thoroughly for the
grade to which they have been pro-
NOTED, yet the institute makes 1t plain
that no boy can retrieve the loss Of an
entire term who has sustained that
failure by reason Of willful lack Of APP
plicatiOn.
I'VE do not suggest that pupils of
this character can make up deficiencies
and merit promotion" declared Mr..
Jones. Misfortune. temporary sick
ness and other causes often enter into
the boys failure. In the eight wears Of
our summer school for boys we have
registered nearly $50. and we have had
ample evidence that an intensive pro-
gram of study for five or six weeks
under a man Of Principal Johnson's ex-
perience win enable very large per
cent Of these falling pupils tn gain pro-
motion. There are forty or more of
these summer schools for public school
boys conducted by the educational de-
partments of Y. NJ. C. As in tho tinted
States this summer. Washington was
one of the first to INTRODUCES the plan"
The class sessions are held three
mornings re each G., week We and the boys are
spective grades before The public
schools reopen in September.

very cool when he saw the fast-coming
engine and held up his arms to McHenry

Oxygen Helmets Used:

NETS and others were quickly obtained
from collieries in this vicinity, and when
the mine rescue car arrived there were
plenty of them to carry on the rescue
work
Fortunately the mine was not set afire,
but the rescuers were retarded for a
while by the blocked passageways, due to
the timbers being torn down and the
roof and sides caving in. They made
their way with the greatest difficulty
The first rescued were the members of
the rescuing force who had gone to the
relief of the victims of the first explo-
sion. Doctors from all parts Of the re-
gion were summoned, and two of them
descended into the mine to give relief at
the bottom of the slope. The first aid
corps, which had also been summoned
from the nearby coilieries, were on hand
to take care of the injured but only
three were found to be cared for. and
