A roll call showed the adoption Of the
articles by vote Of 70 to 50. three more
than necessary. A committee was ap-
pointed to acquaint the senate with the
assembly's finding at the meeting Of
the senate scheduled at IL o'clock this
morning
1t was explained to the assembly by
the majority leaders that with the pre-
sentation to the senate Of the articles
Of impeachment. William Sulzer would
automatically cease to be governor and
Martin H. Glynn, lieutenant governor,
would assume his Office. Mr.. Suffers
lawyers, however, entertain a different
view.
Tammany Men in Charge.
After the adoption Of the articles Of
impeachment the assembly quickly
passed a resolution appointing nine
managers to conduct the proceedings on
behalf Of the lower house. The man
ayers are under the chairmanship Of
Assemblyman Levy and include Ave
other New York City democrats.
Thereafter, under the head Of un-
finished business, the assembly took UP
consideration Of several bills passed at
the present session and vetoed by the
governor. With q roll call that moved
without hitch, the first Of the bills was
repassed over the governors veto.
Membsrs Sleep in Chairs.
Many members had been slun1berng
during the tedious hours Of debate
Others. buoyed no longer by the ex-
citement Of the Impeachment proceed
ings, leaned back in their chairs and
closed their eyes. BY the time tho first
bill had been passed there were audible
sounds Of deep and labored breathing
In some Of the members chairs,
Speaker Smith, leaning forward,
swept with his eyes rows Of men with
their heads on their bosoms and their
eyes closed.
"A number Of the members, I take
1t. are asleep in their chairs" he thun-
dered. bringing his savel down with a
resounding thump on his desk. "Mem-
bers will please answer when their
names are called"
More whacks Of the gavel on the
speakers desk aroused the sleepers
momentarily and the assembly took up
another bill which Governor Suizer
had vetoed.
With this out. Of the way, the as

spectators Remain All Night.
Two hundred spectators, remnants
Of the throng which surged thru the
capitol last night, walked out Of the
chamber with the legislators. They
had sat or stood up all night to see
tho governor impeached. The heaviest
guard Of uniformed police ever sent in
to the capitol. each armed with night
stick and revolver, walked out too.
leaving the assembly chamber to SOL
itude.
In the executive mansion, where
Mrs. Sulser made last night what her
friends call her Confession" to save
her husband. Governor Sulzer sat al
most until dawn awaiting the verdict.
The governor. however, went to bed
before the roll call and was not
awakened to be told the news
''The governor knew what would be
the result" was the only word from
tho executive mansion. The governor
had left orders that he was not to be
disturbed.
Wit. Nay Saw. Him.
In the light Of the revelations con-
tained in Mrs. Sulxer's declaration TO
Senator Palmer yesterday afternoon,
Governor sulzer's friends are inclined
today to view the ordeal which con-
fronts him with less apprehension than
before his impeachment. BY her as
.ertions that she had diverted part OF
the campaign contributions SEE: her
husband to private purposes without
his knowledge. and used them to buy
stock in Wall street, she has shorn the
articles of impeachment of many OK
their terrors, her friends declare.
The governor consented to permit
Mrs. Sulxer's declaration to become
public late last night only when he
found that he could not prevent IT, ana
Il lived a. rumor on the lips OF every
member Of the assembly in the city:
a close friend Of both Governor ana
mrs. sulzer 20 asserted today.

The declaration attributed to Mrs.
suix.r. wife OF the governor, that sne
hsd used some Of her husbands can
nairn contributions.w without his knowl-
eAre to invest In stocks because sne
felt the household needed money ana
that she alone was vholiy responsible
