ALBANY, N. Y., Aug. 16.—Violent measures are apt to be taken to-day by Lieutenant Governor Martin H. Glynn to force William Sulzer, the impeached Governor, from possession at the executive chambers. Mr. Glynn’s peacfui efforts to get possession of ^the State having failed, he has been counseled to force the surrender of Governor Sulzer. Mr. Sulzer now virtually stands alone, having been deserted by the members of his cabinet, who have allied themselves to the Glynn forces. But Sulzer refuses to abdicate, de spite the fact that the ranks of' his political enemies have been strength ened during the last 24 hours. Lieutenant Governor Glynn, who is I now signing State documents with ; this signature, “Martin H. Glyi Act ing Governor, State of New York.’’ announced that, in spite of any ob- j ^ructions thrown in his way by the Sulzer legal forces, he would continue to “ administer gubernatorial affairs pending Mr. Sulzer’s trial for alleged j high crimes and misdemeanors Sep tember 18. Crucial Day in Fight, v This was expected to be the crucial »ay in the fight between Sulzer and Glynn for the control of the destinies of the Empire State, the richest Com monwealth of the nation. Both sides are taking elaborate pre cautions to guard against a trick. Throughout the night armed guards stood watch over each State depart ment, while lawyers and legislators involved In the struggle were trailed by private detectives. Mr. Sulzer was ip ^retirement planning a new legal move with his counsel. Messenger boys with Washington and New York City telegrams could not find the Gov ernor, but members of the “inner cir cle” took charge of the dispatches, saying they would find the Governor. PLeaders of the anti-Sulzer faction made the threat that Mr. Glynn, now having control of the State Military Department, would actually invade the executive chamber. "He will get a mighty warm re ception," declared the Sulzer adher ents, who are few, but courageous. Some Fear Martial Law. Some residents of this city, r*. lag the intense seriousness of the sit- tion, fear that conditions may be- .e so grave that martial law will e to he declared. |>t was assumed that Governor Sul- zejr to-day would reply to the second nolfe from Lieutenant Governor Glynn, demanding the unconditional surren der of all prerogatives by Mr. Sulzer tg^d the abdication of the Governor. Counsel were with the Governor at the beginning of the official day, and it'Was reported that the Governor was urged to take a fling at Tammany Hall. That the Legislature, when it re convenes on Tuesday, will recognize Mr. Glynn as the constitutional Gov ernor of the State was regarded as almost certain, but allowance was made for events which may trans pire in the meantime.

LONDON. Aug. 16.—“Has Mrs. Em meline Pankhurst forsaken the mil itant suffragettes?” This question arose here to-day fol lowing the receipt of a telegram fro n Paris to the effect that the famous leader has just joined her fugitive daughter, Christobel, in that city. At Scotland Yard it was said that de tectives know of Mrs. Pankhurst's de parture from BEnglar d and had so no tified the Government, but no efforts had been take., to stop her flight de spite the fact that she was only tem porarily out of prison when she lef‘, and has over two years to serve yet. In fact, it was made plain that th* Government breathes easier with Mrs. Pankhurst on foreign soil. Prominent members of the Women’s Social and Political Union, of which Mrs. Pankhurst is president, deny that Mrs. T>...khurst has fled. They declare that her mission to Paris is t > induce Christobel to return to London. One theory, based upon this conten tion, is that Mrs. I\—khur.t fears her other dnught£*r, Sylvia, who was re leased from Holloway jail the other day on account of serious illness in- Streets of Village Paved With Gold CHICO, Aug. 16.—Considerable ex citement was created in this city when it was discovered that the streets are being literally paved with gold.

There remained but one thing—the dramatic touch that sends the violins trembling a high crescendo and the hearts of the audience beating a long roll In double time. It was furnished during the past week. The Mother's Part. It was furnished by the person that Belasco would have- picked for the part. The touch was added by the person to whom the trial means more than a seat in high heaven—a woman whose son is on trial for his life. The stage had been appropriately set for the dramatic effect. The au dience had a man of unquestioned wealth back of him. with a little girl of the common masses of the common people called the victim of his de generate lust - Atlanta’s most noted criminal law yers confronted a young prosecutor and a young lawyer who Is seeking the accolade of the bar. A cornfield “nigger’’ had told his simple story. There was even the air of minstrelsy in his testimony, though it was as black as the charge against the man who looked on him calmly and unafraid during the min utes and hours in which he spoke words that helped the opposition in its desire to fasten a rope around his neck. This same man had sat soolly when another negro, a being of a different type, had told a story as sinister as Satan, as awful as the wrath of .Jove. He sat, and without noticeable change of expression, heard this being ac cuse him of a deed as dark as mur der. And all through this ordeal a wom an had sat near the accused man. Her eyes had fared his accusers. They had faced them boldly. Her bearing was remarkable. The Last Straw. But a straw will break a camel’s back, the old saw declares. The straw fell, and the camel’s back caved as dynamite destroys. Rut the break came unexpectedly. Ashley Jones, an insurance man. had told of Frank’s good character on the witness stand. He paused for cross-examination. McDermott, Chicago Congress man, Accused in Connection With Loan Shark Legislation. WASHINGTON. Aug. 16.—Startled by the testimony of T. H. McMichael. former chief page of the House, con cerning the official conduct of Repre sentative James T. McDermott, of Illinois, the Hon** 4 Lobby Investigat ing Committee has decided, it is said, to make a preliminary report on Mc Dermott 10 the House at the earliest possible opportunity. 1 This report will be separate from the committee’s proposed general re port on the subject of lobbying, and when it is presented it will'be in order for any member of the House to move fox McDermott’s expulsion. If such a motion is made, it will be necessary for the House to vote di rectly on the question. According to the rules, a two-third«i vote of the membership is necessary to expul sion. Loan Sharks Raise Funds. Whether such action will be taken depends largely on the testimony of four pawnbrokers of the District of Columbia, who now are under sub- pena by the committee. These pawn brokers, according to McMieb&eb raised a fund to defeat the District loan shark bill, which passed Congress some time ago.* McMichael testified that McDer mott made a trip to the Hotel Na varre. New York City, and there he says he learned the money, or part of it. was turned over to McDermott. McMichael admitted he never saw A cent of the allee^d fund. It was learned to-day that mem bers of the committee believe this phase of McMichael's teytlmofty is the most serious matter they have yet disclosed and constitutes a direct accusation of bribery^ Future testi mony, they admitted, might entirely disprove this. Searchlight on McDermott. Acting on this theory, the general Investigation of lobbies which they have been conducting was to-day turned entirely into an Investigation of McDermott’s persoal conduct. The committee may go into a re port of a liquor lobby raising cor ruption funds to defeat the reforms proposed during the close of the Cannon regime. which precipitate/.! the so-called rules fight. That Andrew J. Gfubb’s death was not a suicide is the statement made by members of his family, who assert that it resulted from an overdose of strych nine, which the deceased had taken on account of heart trouble. Mr Grubb died Tburwlay morning at the family home on DeKalb avenue. North Decatur, while the other mem bers of his family were attending the funeral of his favorite sister, Mrs. So phia Smith. Owing to the condition of his heart, Mr. Grubb had remained at home, fe-arful lest he be overcome at the funeral. At home with him was his 19-year-old son., Harvey Grubb. According to his family. Mr. Grubb had suffered with heart trouble for many eyars and had been compelled to take strychnine to get relief. The only In which he could get the strych nine without a doctor's prescription was to tell the pharmacist that he wanted It for the purpose of killing a dog. Thurs day morning he obtained the strychnine in this manner, which his family says started the suicide rumor. Old Sol, as Barber, Singes Lem’s Beard MIDDLETOWN.

Solicitor General Dorsey asked him if he knew of any acts of perversion Frank had committed. Then the volcano that had been dormant for ages became ‘active. Then the race that has endured martyrdom broke its silence. Then the mother, who believes In her heart that her boy could do no wrong, spoke. “He never heard such a thing, and neither have you,” und her voice waa blazing when she spoke it. Then the drama was furnished The audience rose from the seats. Eyes were fixed. Breaths were short ly drawn. Seconds seemed hours. It had taken mother love, the ten- derest of all passions, to furnish the incident that had really stirred.
