Violence Feared in Fight to Rout
Impeached Governor—Cabinet
Deserts Him.

ALBANY, N. Y„ Aug. 16.—Viole.it
measures are apt to be taken to-day
by Lieutenant Governor Martin H.
Glynn to force William Sulzer, the
impeached Governor, from possession
of the executive chambers. Mr. Glynn's
peacful efforts to get possession of
the State having failed, he has been
counseled to force the surrender of
Governor Eulzer.
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 o( his
political enemies have been strength
ened during the last 24 hours.
Lieutenant Governor Glynn, who is
now signing State documents with
this signature, "Martin H. Glyi Act
ing Governor, State of New York."
announced that, in spite of any ob-
asructlons thrown in his way by the
Sulzer legal forces, he would continue
to administer gubernatorial affairs
pending Mr. Sulzer’s trial for alleged
high crimes and misdemeanors Sep
tember 18.
Crucial Day in Fight.
- This was expected to be the crucial
lay in the nght 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 nigh' armed guards

executive chamber.
“He wdll get a mighty warm re

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 fra 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 knew of Mrs. Pankhurst's de
parture from Englar.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 left,
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 whi.'ii
Mrs. Pankhurst is president, deny
that Mrs. r~..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\—khux-t fears her
other daught£*r, Sylvia, who was re
leased from Holloway jail the other
day on account of serious illness in
duced by a hunger strike, is going f o
die, and she wants the daughters o
meet again.
Christobel Pankhurst fled to Paris
about two years ago to avoid arroat
on a conspiracy charge. Mrs. Pank-
hurst’s biography reads like a police
blotter.
