young men in bathing along the same
stretch of beach found a number of
bills scattered around and also an
empty pocketbook containing card
of Mr. Samiss. When they counted
the bills they found they had 1927.
When Philip Still, of Coran, Long

WANTS MURPHY
AND OTHER SULZER
ENEMIES INDICTED
District-AttOrney Is Requested
to Act Also Against Levy
and Frawley.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-The indict-
ment of Charles F, Murphy, leader of
Tammany Hall; Aaron J. Levy, leader
of the Democratic majority in the As
sembly, and Senator James j. Fraw-
ley, chairman of the committee which
investigated Governor Suffers cam
paign contributions. has been re-
quested of the district attorneys of
New York and Albany counties by
Lynn j. Arnold, of Albany. an ardent
Sulzer supporter.
The Indictment of the three leaders
is asked on statements of many per-
sons, presented by Judge Arnold TO
the district attorneys. regarding an
alleged conspiracy to nut Sulzer out
of the governors chair. In so an
nouncing, Judge Arnold repeated his
declaration that money had been
freely used to accomplish this re-
suit
Judge Arnold who is publisher of
the Knickerbocker-P Press. of Albany,
said today:
Judge Arnold's Statement.
My newspaper has been friendly to
Sulzer in this fight because we
thought he was not getting a square
deal. Because of this friendliness
many persons have written to us and
called at our office to tell us what
certain men whom l cannot name
now. to disgrace Sulzer and put him
out of the governors chair.
This evidence has been placed be-
fore competent lawyers and they be-
lieve with me that 1t is sufficient to
warrant indictments in connection
with the Impeachment proceedings.
AS an instance of the number of
men who are ready to testify | will
say that ten men came into our Of
flee with evidence relating to this
plot. We believe that ii is amply
strong to warrant the Indictment of
Murphy, Levy. Frawley and others.
| cannot say how many others now,
nor can | tell the nature of the
charges.
"They go to show, however. that
there was a conspiracy and "A plot
against Sulzer. More than that they
tend to prove a fiendish crime far
greater than that. l cannot say now,
in the present unsettled state of
affairs what this crime is. Sufficient
to say that it was fiendish-nothing
short of it.
"This evidence. in part. Is already
in the hands of District Attorney
Whitman and the district attorney of
Albany county They are considering
it. What they think of 1t ] am not
at liberty to say. They will have
more of ii soon.

Wilson Gives Huerta Day
WASHINGTON, Aug 25.-Presi-
dent Wilson made it plain today that
unless there was a change IN the at
titude of the Huerta government
within the next twenty-four hours'
he would carry out his intention 10
personally read to CONGRESS toHor-
row a special message outlining tns
policy of the United States toward
Mexico. ,,,4
He will discuss the message tonight
nj the White House with the entire
membership of the Senate foreign re-
lations committee and the House Tor
eien affairs committee. The message
10 couched in very kind terms, be-
cause the President feels that the
world generally ought to recognize
that the situation in Mexico Is an.
normal being controlled by small
e,rolp of men. That circumstance
the President believes. ought not op-
scure the real feeling of the United
States towards MeXlcans, Whlch Is
one of generous friendship.
The President does not wish In any
public utterance to use words OF
farshness or hostility.
Foreign Powers Press Huerta.
That foreign powers generally are
exercising their good offices m Mex
leo CITY, pressing Huerta to yield TO
the American proposals. now is open
ly admitted by administration offi-
eials.
When questioned today whether
such participation by European gov
ern,nents in the politics of the west
ern hemisphere was considered an IN
fringement upon the Monroe doctrine,
1t was pointed out by administration
officials that the United States did
not eonstrue an act of friendship as
imparing, at any time, the Monroe
doctrine.
1t was pointed out also that the
activities of foreign governments were
not due to any request by the United
States for assistance. but that this
government had decided on a policy
of keeping the nations of the world
generally informed of the steps being
taken to bring about peace, leaving
It to the countries of the world to do
spontaneously what seemed expedient.
Message to Go to Diplomats.
A copy of President Wilson'S mes
sage will be delivered to the diplo-
matte corps here after its reading to
Congress. The document Is longer
than usually has been the case with
messages from President Wilson.
When he was asked today to estimate
it's length he laughingly told friends
he had written it on a new typewriter,
and could not estimate it, but it is
expected to make about four thousand
words
AT the White House it was said
there was nothing pending, so far as
this government was concerned. which
might prevent the President from
reading the message tomorrow.

PARIS, Aug. 25.-The French for

French minister in Mexico on Friday
last to support the policy of the
United States toward Mexico by
making friendly representations TO
Provisional President Huerta.
The French government declares it
self convinced by its advices from

pacific intentions of the United

can people
A rumor emanating from apparent
" ell-informed circles Indicated
that President Raymond Poincare
would not receive Francisco de la
Barra. recently appointed Mexican
minister to France, but inquiries at
the foreign office today brought out
the authoritative affirmation that the
French ministry would not raise the
slightest difficulty in the way OF the
reception of Senior de la Barra by
the French president at an early date
1t was pointed out that the question
of the acceptability of Senor de Ia
Barra in France had been settled pe-
fore he left Mexico for Paris and IT
was also declared that he was per-
sonal friend of President Poincare
Senior de lila Barra has arrived IN
Paris and the Mexican charge
d'affaires will make immediate IN
ouiries at thief oreign office as to when
he can present his credentials.
The question, however. has not been
definitely settled. Senior de la Barra,
It is understood, intends to go to
Rome before presenting his letters
of credence, and President Poincare,
who is spending his vacation in the
country, will not return to- Paris un-
til September II.
