SULZER SEEKING
To ESCAPE
GR|LHNG
Thumbs Down" Order Is Sent by
Tammany to Members Of
New York Assembly.

ALBANY, n. Y, Oct. 6.-Attorneys
for Governor William Sulzer to-day
laid their plans for an attempt to get
the statement of the Governor before
the high court of impeachment with
out putting him on the witness stand
to run the fire of cross examination,
and the attempt was arranged along
the idea of several English presidents
in which the respondent either read
statement or prepared one which was
read by counsel.
Harvey d. Hinman, one of the chief
lawyers for Governor Sulzer, this aft
ernoon made the opening speech for
the defense. Not a hint OF the nature
OF the proceedings to be put In mo-
ton by the Governor was allowed to
leak out until the very moment when
the Human address began.
All chances for any compromise to
be reached by which the Governor
would be permitted to win his fight
before the court disappeared when
the men who had been down to New
York for Sunday got back with the
tidings from Good Ground" c. +.
Murphys home, where the directions
were said to have been thumbs
down" in the Senate arena.
Returning pilgrims said that the
impeachment was hurting the New
York City ticket, and that the only
possible way out of the mess was to
make short work Of the Governor.

Manager Browns Youngest Is His
Tanner, and He Goes Around
on Wheels.

Speaking of zoos-Atlanta' menag-
erie at Grant Park has competl-
tor at the Kimball House, where Mas
ter Edward Brown, Jr.. son OF the
manager, entertains the hotel guests
with exhibitions OF perhaps the
strangest alligator ever in captivity.
While Master Browns specimen has
eyes that look pretty much like any
alligator's optics. and teeth which are
at least, as sharp and altogether
as ferocious looking as the molars of
the most dangerous of the Florida
saurlans, it has something else which
absolutely no other alligator ever
captured could boast of-and that Is
wheels.
In fact. the Kimball House mascot
moves about the lobby on these very
wheels, two Of which are attached to
the sides of the body and the other
underneath.
As a result of the perfect adjust
ment of this ball-bearing portion OF
the alligators anatomy it is only nee
essary for the proud owner to pull the
string which is tied to the animals
nose to start him off on his tour OF
the lobby.
And this. as the guests testify, Mas
ter Edward doesn't fail to do TO his
own hearts content, as we'll as TO the
amusement Of the lobbyists.
The Kimball ALLIGATOR has the add ID
distinction OF having been imported
to this country from Japan. where, it
is said, there are lots Of others just
like him
Japlike. the species is very tough
and hardy, as amply proved by the
fact that Master Edward, who is just
Is months old, has had him in cap
tivity now since last Christmas.
