FIRST FIGHT LOST
BY SUFFERS SIDE
Challenged Senators Are Per.
mitted TO Retain Their
Bench Seats.
DO NOT VOTE
Crowd Not as Large as at the
Opening of the Court
Yesterday.
=, ..nne,Arrn .nrnn,

ALBANY. Sept. 19.-Goyernor Sui
zer's lawyers lost their first fight in
the court of impeachment today when
the four senators challenged by the
defense, were permitted to retain
their seats. The vote which was on
the question whether the court should
entertain the challengers was unani-
nous against such procedure. The
four senators concerned, Frawley,
Wagner, Ramsperger and sanner did
not vote. Immediately following the
vote of the court the reading of the
articles of impeachment was begun.
Although presiding Judge Cullen had
the right to decide the question of the
qualification of the senator's for hold
ing their seats, he did not take adj
vantage of this perogative. He first
expressed his opinion that the objec-
lions were not well grounded and
then permitted the entire court to vote
on the issue. In addressing The court,
Judge Cullen said that no court had
the right to sit in Judgment of any
one of its members. In this, he said,
court differed greatly from a jury,
the qualifications of members of which
might be decided by the courts. The
vote came after a morning of legal
argument between Judges Herrick
and Parker, representing the defense
and the prosecution, respectively.
Judge Herrick's chief argument was
that no man might sit both as prose-
cutor and judge. In reply, Judge
Parker said that the members of the
court were here as5representatives of
the whole people, that the people es-
established court of impeachment in
the beginning, and that no other than
the people had a right to remove
their representatives.
The scene witnessed in the court
room this morning was vastly differ
ent from that presented yesterday.
Less than half the seats in the gallery
were occupied at the opening of the
arguments. Throughout the morning
spectators moved in and out but at no
time were all the seats filled.
