Albany, N. Y., Sept. 22.—The physi- cal condition of William Sulzer, im- peached governor of the state, is causing worry. He is probably nearer a complete breakdown than ever be- fore in his political career. Despite the reassuring declarations of those closest to him and the indig- nant statements of his intimates that he never was in as good shape it de- velcped that he is really far from a well man, He is not under the care of a physi- clan, but has been persuaded to re- main quietly at the People’s House under the watchful éye of Mrs: Sulzer. When his attorneys have exhausted all the technicalities through whick they have a faint hope of crushing the case against him, Sulzer may come to the impeachment court in person and dramatically become the chief figure of his own trial. But if he should do this it would be against the earnest protests of his chief counsel. The Sulzer attorneys were in close consultation here, while most of the prosecutors had gone back home, Base Hope on Technicality. The followers of the governor see certain defeat in his present conten- tion that the assembly did not have the power to impeach him in an extra session. But they have one technical- ity left and it is one on which they -are hopeful of lining up the majority of the court of appeals judges on their side. It is the charge of “crimes and misdemeanor” when the offenses were committed prior to his taking the oath of office. The Sulzer attorneys are on t one question alone a unit. They ar way of thinking and d. ide that br cauge of that fact Sulzer cannot be tried on the articles of impeachment now before it. It is admitted, how- ever, that they have little hope that “they can gain anything other than g technical victory in this way. Despite the widespread circulation of the rumor that Sulzer contemplates resigning should his lawyers lose out on all the technical points they have raised friends of the elected governor j still insist that he would not do so, but would stand or fall on the verdict of the court.

All Over Room Late last night thiees broke into the Hans Westdahl Carpentry shop but.took only a few tools, including a “limwmy™. Shortly after, they broke in the W. H. Dugas hardware store i where they took four shot guns and four rifles. They suceeded in open- ing the safe, but no money was left in the cash drawer and they were unsuccessful in securing any money. As their loot was not sufficient to pay ued their raid and broke into - the Birth Hardware store, but. so *far nothing has been missed and it is be- lieved that tthey could get nothing which would be profitable, The next building to be broken in- to was the Soo depot where they suc- ceded in relieving the office of $30. All the express packages in the de- pot were opended and the contents scattered on the floor. , Just what was 'taken from these packages can not be learned until some definite in- voice has been taken. Later Phillip Raboin’s variety store was visited, but only two boxes of cigars were removed from the stock Whether the series of crimes were committed by Cass Lake residents can not be learned, as no clue can be found to the guilty parties. Rail- road men stated this morning that they had seen two well dressed men at the “Y” west of the village early last evening and that a lady met them at this point where a consulta- ‘tion was held.' The women has been rweeks but could not be found today. The Cass Lake authorities believe that-the three are the guilty parties and are now working to discover their whereabouts.

This will mean that athletics will be tied up for several weeks. Do not be a “pik- * ‘er.” It wil mean a big expense * to the club and if you continue * to neglect meetings the club + may be forced to disband.
