adyisablity OF presenting 10 tho House OF Assem-
bly, articles Of Impeachment against Secretary Of
state Henry G. Kelsey viii not b. held. OF the
forty members who signed the petition last week
only t"cniy-"igh' have permitted th"r signatures
TO remain. and perhaps several of thcs" viii ask
that their names b. stricken from the ra,i before
the time fixed for the caucus. But Mr.. S'orrs has
power to call The caucus regardless of specific

The Grand Jury VIII rcconvcne tomorrow morn
ing. 1t Will II is said. proceed at once to digest
th- supplemental charge Of Justice Gunmore re-
sIcctng tin criminal responsibility OF Secretary

Tomorrow the Governor doubt will send in
several vctocs Il the bills passed Oh Thursday
particularly those having reference to Newark
New-irunswick and Passaic. During last week the
Legislature considered thlriyscven bills. and there
several yet 10 be introduced. Should the Gov
ornor fail to keep faith with the Senators and hold
the bills ba H. the Legislature Will not be able TO
get away this week as Is the programme. whether
adjournment unin October sine die will be had
this week Is not definitely settled. Recognizing tho
absolute necessity FOR the speedy passage OF "A
bin enabling the States of New-Jersey and New

their knowledge OF the subject Under the March
resolution, the blu could not be passed under the
rules unless sanctioned by the voorhees, Committee.
II is expected that Governor Werts Will send 10
the Senate tomorrow or Tuesday the name Of the
sncccssor Of Justice Alfred Reed OF the supreme
Court bench and also the names OF Lay Judges Tai
man and Smith, whom he recently appointed ON the
Court OF Errors and Appeals. Smith and Talman. II
IL believed. appointed on the Court Of Errors
and Appeals solely have their votes In the Court
OF Parions Of which court they are members by
virtue OF their position the bench. In aid OF Gut
tcnburg's big Four" Anyhow. they voted for the
hardening VI these arch-rascals. Taman Is the es
pccial appoiniee OF Duke" W. J. Thompson OF
Gloucester racctrack fame. Their appointment viii
come before the Senate for confirmation. There IS
decided sentiment IN favor OF rejecting the selec-
lions of Governor Werts for the Court OF Errors and
Appeals and II Is thought this will be done. Neither
is il at all certain that the lppoinec to the Supreme
Court bench Will be confirmed unless he be OF racog-
nzed ability ard above suspicion OF any connectIo,
with the old Democratic regime that has so wcfully
nlundcred the State during the last dozen years
