Attorney General Gives Opinion

SAYS SULzER MUST CEASE

Albany, n. Y, Aug. 19.-When the

Martin H. Glynn automatically sue.
ceeded to the governorship and will
continue to hold that office until Gov
ernor Sulzer is acquitted or the i'm
peachment proceedings dismissed by
the court of impeachment. An opin-
ion to that effect was given by At.
torney General Carmody to Secretary
OF State Mitchell May.
Carmoay Opinion Favors Glynn.
In the same opinion. Mr. Carmo6y
holds that the power of impeachment
may be exercised at any time the as
sembly determines upon and for that
reason, the assembly acted within it's
legal rights when it voted in favor of
impeachment proceedings despite the
fact that the legislature is convened
in extraordinary session.
The attorney generals opinion is
expected to have an important bear
ing on the controversy as to who is
governor of the state. 1t is custom
ary for state departments to adhSre
to the opinion of the attorney general
until set asiCc by the courts.
GIynn Performing Acts.
Another official act was performed
by Acting Governor Glynn. He honor
ed requisit.on papers from the gov
ernor of Massachusetts, surrendering
to the authorities criminal wanted
in that state. The only official act of
Governor Sulzer was to attend the
trustees of the state public buildings.
He was the only member of the board
present.
Sulzer in Better Spirits.
Governor SulZer was in better
spirits and the care worn look which
he has carried since his Impeachment
was less pronounced. He showed
during the day that the continued i'm
provement in Mrs. Suffers condition
relieved him of a great care.

d. Cady Herrick and other advisers
and from 1890 to II O'Clock he was
closely closeted. He did not leave
the executive chamber at noon for his
dinner and the governor did not come
out of his office until after he called
the meeting of the trustees of public
buildings at o'clock.

Washington, Aug. President
Huerta turned down fatty the plan
which President Wilson has evolved
for the peaceful settlement of NeXi-
can difficulties. In his answer to the
American note which was forwarded
he will not consider mediation of Mex
lean affairs by any foreign power,
The president considered the Mex.
lean reply at n long conference with
Secretary Bryan and Counsellor John
Bassett Moore 1t can be said definite.
~ that he IL not considering armed
interv ention as the next step by this
government.
Two Courses Open.
There are good reasons for belIev-
ing that the president will make an
effort to procure the withdrawal OF
Huertas refusal before giving up
the mediation idea entirely. Failing
In this he may fall back on another
course, according to those who have
followed his lines Of thought closely
throughout the Mexican crisis. He
may inform the governments of the
world of the effort he has made to
settle Mexican AFFAIRS. urge oil Ameri.
cans to withdraw from Mexico and
permit the indiscriminate shipment of
arms and munitions to tho federals
and revolutionists in the hope that
they may be able to work out their
own salvation.
II was recognized that the presi.
dent has lost a tactical advantage in
note at the time II was communicated
to Huerta. This was the president &
original plan and announcement OF II
was made at the time former Govern
or Lind was dispatched to Mexico.
Huerta Crafty.
1t is likely that had this step been
taken pressure would have been
exerted on the Mexican president
from many parts of the world,
Huerta though apparently outplay-
ed the United States by depriving her
of this advantage. He requested that
President Wilson withhold the publl-
cation of the note until Il could be
pondered over AT Mexico city and
asked that his permission be obtained
before the note was given out. The
president agreed to this and the re-
suit or this agreement by the presi.
dent is that Huerta was enabled to
give a brief consideration to the
American note, untroubled by any
pressure and then to send his refusal
to Washington. The tone OF the note
which Huerta's minister OF foreign af.
fairs Senior Gamboa placed in the
hands OF George O'Shaughnessy at the
American embassy In Mexico City Is
curt and positive.

had fairly lifted her big golden-chest-
nut hunter over the high barrier in
leap as clean as the fight of flying
squirrel. He saw her lean forward to
pat the wet arching neck as the horse
settled again into it's pace.
John Va1iants admiration turned to
delight. why" he said, ats the
Iady.of-the- Roses!"
He put his hands on the sill and
vaulted to the porch.
The tawny scudding streak that led
hat long chase had shot into the yard
turning for a last desperate double. 1t
saw the man in the foreground and It's
bounding, agoniZed little wild heart
that so prayed for life, gave way. With
a final effort, it gained the porch and
crouched down in it's corner, an abject,
sweated. hunted morsel, at hopeless
bay.
Like fash Valiant stopped, caught
the shivering thing by the scuff, and
as it's swapping Jaws grazed his thumb
dropped it through the openwindow
behind him. "Sanctuary! quoth he,
and banged the shutter to.
At the same instant, as the place
overhowed with pandemonium OF
,nosing leaping hounds, he saw the gol'
de1 brox-rows, with shamefaced
though brazen knowledge that the girl
who rode it had seen.
She sat moveless, her head held high
one hand on the hunters foam-fecked
neck, and their chances met like cross
ed swords The look stirred some
thing vague and deep within him.
For an unforgettable instant their eyes
held each other, in gaze rigid, chal
longing, almost defiant; then it broke

party squirting in galloping zigZag:
a genial-faced man Of middle age In
khaki who sat his horse like a cavalry
man, younger one with reckless
dark face and straight black hair, and
following these half-dozen youthful
riders of both sexes, one OF the lads

copper, and the girls chiefly gasps

He glanced up, and for the first time
saw the figure In tweeds looking on.
Valiant was attracted by his face, It's

Iherent prohisacy and weakness. Dark
as the girl was light, his features had
the same delicate chiseling, the In.

the somewhat supercilious look
travelled over the gazer, from dusty

VIII SON UNKNOWN.

Jeffersonian simplicity has gone
clear by the boards at the white
house.
Though President Wilson still re-
fuses to have his box at the theate1
decorated, and though he dlshkes
show or ostentation of any kind, the
fact is true nevertheless that he is the
least approachable of any man VINO mas
every occupied the white house. II
is practically impossible for anyone 10
meet him except on Official business
and even then the interviews must be
Extremely brief.
The statement from the white house
,last week that the president would not
hold the usual public reception on
New Years has robbed the people OF
their one hope of getting close to the
present head of the nation this year
Mr.. Wilson Is the first person who mas
cut out this reception except for ILL
ness. He has stated he does 1T be-
cause of need for rest during the holl-
day season.

streets of Washington but seldom.

which was so much written about prior
to his coming. When he goes TO the
golf course, he always plays with MS
personal physician, never with others.
On the other hand, Presidents Taft
and Roosevelt often mixed with the
crowds, and while they put on fax
more pomp in the white house and on
official occasions, they we're never SO
nard to reach by the casual citizen who
wants to catch glimpse of his pres1'
dent or to shake hands with him.
President Wilson is still an unknown
man as far as the populace In Wash
ington is concerned. The common
people are now looking forward to
January /, 1915. in the hope that he
will find it convenient to be here then
and not cut out their one reception for
a second time.

A. SIGN OF THE FUTURE.

Two very significant things have
occurred within the past week. They
happened at opposite ends of the
earth, but they bore relation to each
other. After launching the greatest
dreadnought ever built, the British
government let it be known that it IS
to be the last of the dreadnoughts.
And at San Francisco an aviator
dropped a sand bag on an American
battleship.
The British attitude is that the de-
yelopment of the submarine boat IS
The recent British naval maneuvers
showed that the submarines could
easily destroy all the battleships and
come away unscathed- Hence the
plan for the future is to build the
smaller types of fighting craft - the
torpedo boat destroyers and the scout
cruisers.
The American battleshtp was COM
ing in through the Golden Gate from
the open Pacific, coasting easily along
with the tide. A speck tn.the sky be-
came a blot, a bird, and was an aero
plane. Thud! A small bag of SAND
dropped from the air machine fell in
the waist Of the ship squarely amid
ships. Almost before the startled
crew could look up to see whence the
missile had come the aeroplane was
far in the distance beyond range OF
the sky guns.
OF course, it was a friendly act,
merely to demonstrate the ability OF
the aeroplane. For the bag of sand
might have been a pellet of some ter
rible explosive which would have
torn the vitals from the ship. The
officers must have stared at the sky
man much as the aborigines looked
at the white men with Columbus-the
herald of a new epoch.
After all, science may bring about
international disarmament, and that
speedily. The submarine causes the
abandonment of the battleship type.
The aeroplane drives the cruisers and
destroyers from the sea. Nations may
be restricted to aeroplanes, which
cannot yet convey armies across seas.
When it comes to this point, the
worlds sense of humor may bring
about the peace millennium.

orIoIn Of Authors, RIohts,

The recent jubilee meeting OF the
French Societe des Gems de Lettres, at

to an inquiry as to the origin of that
most important thing for writer's
authors rights. The first trace of 1t
goes back, 1t apepars. to the year 1855.

was his first play, and he offered 1t to

were not willing to risk more than so

suggested that, instead of receiving a

ninth part Of the receipts taken in dur

Air Scouts Proved of Value.

Recent wars have served to show
how valuable the air scouts may be-
come In the carrying on of cam
paign. Despite the fact that Bulgaria
secured many worthless aeroplanes, as
a result. it is said, of graft, those
which could be operated gave valua-
BILE information. And at one time
nearly all Of the 20 aeros assembled
at Mustapha Pasha were condemned
as unserviceable and only three of
them succeeded In flying. Moreover.
under urgency to secure men in haste
many scamp aviators were employed,
some Of them receiving $500 a day, and
when their services we're needed they
declined to fly on one pretext or an
other. 1t is reported that FIVE obso-
lete Bleriots arrived at the Bulgarian
headquarters without motors or gaso-
line tanks. Yet the planes that could
fly did some valuable work.
