viii not be done, unless the Governor
absolutely insists upon taking the
stand. II IS believed that the appear
ance of the Governor on tho witness
stand will result In the calling OF
Charles +. Murphy, the Tammany
leader, as witness, and this Is some
thing that neither the Sulzer attorneys
nor the counsel for the board of man
ayers desire.
However. Governor Sulzer spent a
large portion OF to-day preparing a
statement to DO made before the i'm
contain a bitter charge against the
Tammany chieftain. If the Governor
takes the advice OF his counsel, who
represent him before the trial court
and is guided by the advice OF the
Kitchen Cabinet" this address will be
delivered before the impeachment
court and II Will then be necessary for
the Sulzcr counsel TO subpoena Muir
ply.
Rumors of Friction.
Rumors are already being circulated
III Albany that friction has developed
between the two branches OF the Gov
ernor's advisers. The counsel repre-
senting the Governor before the trial
court were amazed at the testimony Of
fered this week by Henry Morgenthau
and other witnesses, and they Will DC
loath 10 allow their client to Fake the
witness stand unless the Governor sees
TT to take his chief counsel into his
confidence.
Despite every effort to impress upon
the Governor the seriousness OF the
charges facing him. he insists that
there is absolutely nothing to the
charges. and asserts that he can dis
pose OF them in a few words.
Again Expresses Confidence.
While consulting with one or his at
torneys to-day. the Governor said:
Don't worry about me. 1 shall come
out OF this with lying colors. l have
just begun 10 fight. and even II I am
convicted. there Will be political
revolution which will destroy my
enemies and leave mo unscathed.'
