PUT DEMOCRATS TO TEST

ALBANY. Aug. 6.-After next
Monday Gov. Sulzer expects to know
definitely where every democratic
state committeeman and county chair
man stands in the war he is making
on Tammany Boss Murphy. Through
his secretary, Chester c. Platt the
governor has issued call to all state
committeeman and county chairmen
for a conference with him on that
day for the purpose of promoting the
candidacy of aspirants for the as
sembly pledged to support the Sulzer
direct primaries bill. Mr. Plat said
last night:
"This conference will be most i'm
portant one in view of the history of
the past few weeks. For urging that
the democratic party be true to its
platform pledges the governor has
been furiously assailed by the politi-
cal bosses of both parties. Every ef-
fort has been made to blacken his
reputation. and his enemies have gone
to the point of threatening his i'm
parchment.
"The governor desires to know the
attitude of every state committeeman
and county chairman with regard to
these attacks. Committeeman and
county chairmen who for any reason
cannot be present at the conference
are asked to send proxy to represent
them.
"A determined effort should be
made in every assembly district in the
state to elect an assemblyman who
will stand by the governor in the
fight he is making to rid the state of
grafters who are plundering it and
to remove the principal cause of pub

weird trip through crowded streets, in
a plunging automobilel, brought w.
r. Anderson. young medical student
and automobile demonstrator, to the
doors of the rockpile yesterday. when
he was sentenced for five days by
Judge Stevenson. Execution was
stayed by notice of appeal. The prison
sentence came as the result of a show
ing that Anderson had been drinking
which, in automobile drivers, is
felony in many states.
First notice of Anderson's wild ride
came from NJ c. Dickinson, who trail

Detective Captain Baty also saw the
narrow escape, and testified at the
trial yesterday.
Scarcely had Mr.. Dickinson made
his report at the police station when
H. P. Coffin, sitting on his porch on
East Broadway. saw the automobile
go past, wavering from side to side
and travelling so fast that residents
ran to their doors to watch it. He
also reported to the police. and Pa
trolman Wendorf was sent to lie in
wait at the garage where the car was
shown by the register to belong.
Patrolman Ellis also was in court
to prosecute a charge against Ander-
son of leaving his car standing in traf-

PART OF PARK MAY
Be OFFERED As SITE
FOR GOVT BUILDING
Movement Looking to This End Will
Be Put Before City Council
Tonight.

4 proposition of considerable in
terest in connection with the site foi
he new government building is be
ing discussed on the streets this aft
crnocn, and it is understood that the
City Council will be convened In spa
cial session this evening to con-
slider it.
The proposition is to have the city
sell the government a sufficient space
for the building site from the south
east corner of Mum park approx
mately l4O feet front on Main stree,
and a like frontage on Kentucky ave-
nue.. 1t is thought that as this is un-
deniably the best location in the cit I
the government would be willing to
ray a pretty fair price for it, The
plan is to take the money thus Sc
cured and use It for the purchase
two park sites Of equal value, one to
be located on the north side of the
railroad and the other on the south
side.
The promoters Of this plan claim
that Mum park would not be greatly
injured by the occupancy OF this
corner by handsome building. over
,hree-fourth of 1t being left undis-
turbed for park purposes, while the
city would gain two additional parks,
which are. of course. quite desirable.
The contention is made that acres
can be bought for park purposes in
exchange for the square feet sur.
rendered for the government site.
Mum park was donated to the cit
~ Mr.. a. &. Mum, or the Lakeland
Co., of which he was the
stockholder, with the pre-
tiso that IL bo dedicated to park pur-
poses only. This restriction, however
can be removed by Mr.. Morris G

the necessary papers to settle all
question OF title. and he declares his
readiness to DO this, as he favors tn"
proposition.
The matter Is scheduled to be dis
VI sed Of at a special meeting OF the
