By Private Leased Wire.
New York, June 8.—Former Presi
dent Grover Cleveland contributes a
signed article on quail shooting to The
Independent, which will be published
tomorrow. Ilf. Cleveland says. In'
part:
'I am convinced that nothing meets
all the requtremhts of rational health
ful outdoor exercise more completely
than quail shootjng. It seems to be
so compounded of wholesome things
that It reaches, with vitalising efTect,
every point of mental or physical en
ervation.
"It Invites early rising, and, as a
general rule, a successful search for
these uncertain birds Involves long
miles of travel on foot. Obviously, this
sport furnishes an abundance of mus
cular action and physically strength
ening surroundings. These fortunately
are supplemented by the eager alert
ness essential to the discovery and cap
ture of game well worth the effort and
by the recreation and self-satisfying
complacency of more or leas skillful
shooting.

Albany, N. Y., June 8.—Sworn
charges, embracing, a felony and mis
demeanors, have been filed with Gov
ernor Higgins against William Travers
Jerome, together with a demand for
Jerome's removal from the office of dis
trict attorney of New York county.
The chargee are preferred by live
cltlxcns of New York. They are W. N.
Amory, Sherman Dwight, Joseph C.
Hurley, Edward P. White and Robert
Baker.
These men declare that they stand
ready to prove the charges, and In
J their memorial to the governor say:
Ask Jerome’s Removal.
"We respectfully request the removal
of said William Travers Jerome, whose
continuance In office Is at once a scan
dal and disgrace."
One of the principal, charges, which
the accusers say they are In a posi
tion to prove. Is:
"That the eatd William Travers Je
rome haa received a gratuity or reward
In the shape of campaign funds to
compound a crime for a violation of
the criminal atatutes of this state, and
has agreed and has abstained, In pur.
suance of a previous agreement or ar.
rangement, to abstain from the prose,
cutlon of sundry criminal actions. In
violation of section 125 of the penal
code, and Is therefore guilty of a fol
ony."
Refusal to Prosseute.
More charges against Jerome relates
to his refusal to prosecute officials of
the Metropolitan Street Railway Com
pany when evidence of their alleged
crimes was In his possession. Ten In
stances are reiterated in the epedflca.
tlons wherein the dletrict attorney In
the face of overwhelming testimony,
declined or neglected to bring these
railroad officials to the bar of Justice.
It Is even charged that In some In
stances the district attorney used his
office and the public funds for the pur
pose of proving the Innocence of tho
accused.
Under the law Governor Higgins may
exercise entire discretion In hearing
these charges. If he decides not to
dismiss the accusations the legal pro
cedure would be to appoint a commls
alon to receive evidence. Or, If the
governor thinks a prlma facie caae haa
been established and that no more evi
dence Is necessary to justify, he may
remove the dletrict attorney without
further formality.
