Governor, However, Feels Sure
He Will Be Acquitted by
Impeachment Court.
ENEMIES ARE JUBILANT
Recognition of GIynn as Legal
Acting Executive Regarded
as Sign of Weakening,

ALBANY, n. Y, Sept William
Sulzer the impeached Governor of
New York, was reported to-day to be
on the verge of a physical collapse.
Worry over the bitter political fight
which Tammany Hall is waging
against him, coupled with anxiety
over the outcome of the Impeachment
trial, caused the Governors health to
break
A close friend Of the executive de-
clared to-day that there is no truth
in reports that Mr.. Sulzer will re-
sign under fire. This person, who in
Governor, said that Mr.. Sulzer feels
sure that the impeachment court will
acquit him of the high crimes and
misdemeanors" charged against him.
Governor Sulzer believes that his
foes in the Senate lack fifteen votes
of the number necessary to find him
guilty.
1t is learned that the Governor
wrote long statement TO Judge d.
Cady Herrick, his chief counsel, re-
fusing to allow him to give ii out.
As a result of Mr.. Suffers acknowl-
edgement Of Lieutenant Governor
Glynn as the legal acting Governor,
the anti Sulzer Legislators were ju-
bilant. They declared that Mr.. Sulzer
is fast weakening and that If it were
not for the support of Mrs. Sulzer and
his lawyers the Governor would not
undertake to fight against his politi-
cal adYersaries

tional election unless the Chamber of
Deputies confirmed his appointment
of Senior Tamariz to the Ministry of
Public Instruction.
In a message Huerta declared that
he had reforms in mind for the en-
lightenment of the people, and he felt
confident that Tamariz is better suit
ed than any other man to carry them
out.
The recall of Felix Diaz was de-
clared to be a shrewd political move
on Huerta's part. 1t is reported that
Huerta viii appoint Diaz Foreign
Minister to succeed Senior Gamboa.
Under the Constitution a President
Of Mexico can not succeed himself.
If Diaz is appointed Foreign Minis
ter and Huerta resigns to be a can
didate for reelection, Diaz would
succeed to the Presidents chair in
the interim.
Consequently Diaz could not be
elected President because he could
not legally succeed himself. On the
other hand, Huerta could be elected
and could constiutionally take his
place in the National Palace.
A stormy session of the Catholic
party is looked for tomorrow, when
its convention will be held here.
