Judge Alton B. Parker, in I'M
parchment Arguments, Bitterly
Arraigns Executive.

ALBANY, n. Y, Oct. s.-Judgs
Alton B. Parker, in the course of d
bitter arraignment of Governor Will
| liam Sulzer before the court of i'm
parchment this afternoon, declared
that the Governor had knowingly
sworn to a lie when he reported only
$5,460 of receipts in the face Il
$S7, 400 of proven contributions.
He riddled the Sarecky testimony,
declaring it unworthy of belief, and
said that the Governor must indeed
have been proud of his pupil when
he read the report that omitted all Of
the contributions from the great in
terests, the liquor dealers or the poll,
ticians included in it, and he added:
The man who read that list, aud
examined t. knew 1t was not true.
1t does not help him for the boy to
say he did the best he could; his
master knew 1t was a lie"
For more than two hours Louis
, Marshall, speaking in defense Of
Governor Sulzer attacked the right
of the court of impeachment to con-
vict the Governor upon charges that
related solely to things transplri lg
before his term of office began.
In a powerful speech, in so far as
its technical legal force was con
cerned the attorney hammered this
fact at the judges of the high court.
"All Of the meat in the impeach-
ment hangs about the one offense of
making a false campaign statement
which was rendered before the Gov
ernor's term of office began, and the
court is without power to punish for
an act which does not involve official
misconduct in office" he said.
A verdict is expected next Monday
or Tuesday.

,a3S to Weld to the wishes of the
