WILLIAM SUI FER
CASE APPEALED
VIM. Moore Petitions Federal
Court to Review Trial.
MAY REACH SUPREME COURT
Alleged That Government Has Passed
From People To Small
Group Of citi-
gems.

New York. The conviction OF Will
liam Sulzer by the High Court Of I'M
parchment and his removal from office
as Governor Of New York was thrown
into the Federal Courts for review by
William H. Moore, q printer Of this
city.
In his petition Moore alleges that
the control Of the government OF the
state Of New York has passed from
the people to small group OF citi-
Gems and that consequently New York
is NO longer enjoying q Republican
form OF government, as guaranteed by
the Federal Constitution.
Moore seeks to have the court en-
join Martin HI. Glynn from exercising
any OF the functions Of Governor,
Eprays for the restoration Of the office
to SuIzer, attacks the Assembly for
arrogating to itself the power to con
|vene in extraordinary session and
pass articles of impeachment and con-
cludes his petition with prayer for
an auditing or all the State books.
Members OF the court Of impeachment,
Governor Glynn, Attorney General Car
mody, Secretary Of State May and
Sulzer himself are named as defend
ants.
Sulzer, engaged in the height Of q
campaign for election to the Assembly
on the Progressive ticket, expressed
surprise at the filing Of the suit.

life, according to those who know him
best, has been remarkably quiet
one;. although it would appear that
one who has passed over such great
number of years and has lived in we
olden times" that we read about, must
necessarily have bumped against
something during his career that was
worth chronicling.
Morris is bachelor and a confirmed
woman hater. and right here is where
q grain OF romance inserts itself. In
his young days, 1t is said, many
years before he came to this country,
he was engaged to a buxom English
girl. The wedding day had been fixed.
but before its arrival the girl sickened
and died. Morris so cherished the
memory Of his beloved that he could
never be brought to look with favor
upon any other woman.
n AS the years passed, his antipathy
toward the fair sex increased until,
at the present day, with one hundred
and twenty years to his credit, he
stands forth, an openly avowed wom-
an hater. Who knows, but what this
aged man, as he dreams in the sun
light, has visions of that long age
face and that it gradually draws near
err and becomes more distinct as he
himself approaches the goal.

I PANAMA CANAL LOCKS SAFE.
Could Not BE Reached BY Guns From
Hostile WarshIps.

Washington Secret tests recently
made by the division Of the Atlantic
battleship fleet, under the command
OF Rear Admiral Usher, are said to
have disclosed the fact that the Pan
anna Canal virtually has nothing to
fear from the IRE of an enemy's feet,
SO far as the Gatun and other import
ant locks are concerned. The tests,
started last winter, are declared to
have developed the fact that the feet
could not determine the location of the
Gatun lock. II is also intimated that
the data made public and supposed to
give the topography Of the canal were
purposely inaccurate. In addition. it
was discovered that the hills interven-
ing rendered the locks almost immune
from damage by bombardment from
sea.

that the present facts are retained.
Morris was born in the year 1794.
at Berrey, M0ntgomeryshire, North

OF next January he will have reached
the wonderful age OF one hundred and

gamekeeper to large estate in Eng

and passed through Chicago the Sum
day after the big FIRE. Locating at
Blackstone, ILL.,, he quietly followed
his trade In that town for ten years.
Later on, he moved to Harrison coun-
