WILL VOTE FOR
IMPEACHMENT
Practically Certain Governor Sulz-
er will Be Subjected to Or
deal of Trial
ASSEMBLY WILL ACT TODAY
All Absentee Members Are Urged
to Be In Attendance
MAY LACK NECESSARY VOTES

Albany, n. Y. Aug. 12.--That Gov
ernor Sulzer will he subjected to the
ordeal of an Impeachment trial is the
result of today's session of the assem-
bly, was the confident prediction of the
governors opponents. Last nights
vote on the question of beginning i'm
peachment proceedings without delay
indicated only eleven of fifty absen-
tees were needed TO make up the sew
enty-siX votes necessary for the car
lying out of the Impeachment program.
Advocates Of this procedure do not
anticipate a renewal Of the bitterness
which characterized portions of last
nights debate kilograms were sent
To each of twenty Democratic abScn-
tees urging their attendance at to-
days session, and Republican abscn-
tees were scrvec with like notices.
The resolution under consideration
today is based upon the report of
the F'rdwley legislative investigating
committee. The Senate will mark time
until the assembly has had an oppor-
tunity to formulate its program.
May Lack Sufficient Votes.
The appointed hour for the consid-
erng of the resolution to iWpeach
Governor Sulzcr found his friends and
foes in the lower house joclicyinS for
time To receive their numbers and
gather in two score and more absent
ecs from last nights session. The
encounter preliminary To the real hgh
on the noor of the assembly indicated
the inability of the governors oppo-
ry through the program OF impeach
ment. Wires throughout the state were
kept alive with appeals To absent mem
bers to hurry 10 Albany to align them
selves on the question. The entire
program on Impeachment today was
imperilled by the absence Of men re-
lied upon by the majority leaders to
gather 10 their standard. The govern
or's secretary announced there will be
no word from the executive until the
assembly had voted on the impeach-
ment resolution,
'If the vote is to impeach." said the
secretary. SulZer will reserve his an
swer for the Impeachment proceed
ings before the Senate. Should the
resolution I" impeacli be defeated, the
governor will give a statement setting
forth his side of the controversy in
entirety.

FEAR ACT OF NIAIl|STS;;
GUARD THE IMPERIAL HEIR

st. Petersburg, Aug. 12.-Thc little
Grand Duke Alexis, only son of the
Gar and heir TO the throne of Russia.
entered upon his tenth year today.
having been born at Peterhof. August
II, 1904. In celebration of the ami
versary flags were displayed every
where today and the usual salutes
were fired at all the naval and mill
tary stations throughout the empire.
II is safe To assert that no other
boy in the world is guarded so assd-
uously against lurking perils as is the
Grand Duke Alexis. Recent rumors
cf renewed activity on the part of the
rihilists and Tcrrorists have caused
increased precautions To be taken for
the safety of the imperial heir. From
the moment that he arises i'm the morn
ing until he retires at night his every
movement is watched over by trusted
soldiers. His bodyguard, composed of
fiftv of the most loyal and trusted
Cossacks, remains with him at all
times. In the school room, I'm the play
room, and in all other chambers of
the palace frequented by the Grand
Duke. the soldiers are to be seen
standing like statues. When the boy
is taken into the great garden to romp
and play, the gates are guarded by
sentinels. and none may enter without
the password.

AMERICANS HUNT IN ENGLAND.
Join with English Society Folks in
Sports Of the Chase,

London, Aug, with the close Of
regatta week at COwcs society folk
have turned their faces toward the
northern moOrs. Today, known to
every lover of sport i'm the United
Kingdom as the glorious Twelfth"
marks the opening of the grouse hunt
ing season. Despite the fact that the
sport is enormously expensive ii Is
more generally INDUCED in each sue
cessivc year by English men and wO-
men of the leisure class and by not n
few wealthy Americans who of late
years have attracted attention by
leasing some of the choicest hunting
preserves. The indications are that
the sportsmen will find the present
season more than usually expensive.
The Scottish game keepers report that
grouse and quail are unusually scarce
owing tO the fact that the persistent
rain and cold Of last spring destroyed
the young. II is figured that every
bird shot this season will cost the cX-
uberant nimrod between three and four
dollars.
