The opponents Of snlzer declare
that they can get forty votes against
him Thirty eight are necessary TO

the court by the trial.
Marshall declared that the achieve.

tration would absolve him from any
suspicion OF guilt and he attacked the
methods used by the prosecution,
framing the charges on acts commit

Without calling Governor Sulzer or

counsel rested their defense in the
trial OF his impeachment. According

The sudden announcement that the
case for the defense was closed
which came late in the afternoon
session, created profound sensation
in the court room. Only few days
after the trial began Governor Suzer
told newspaper men that he would
positively appear in his own defense.
He said at that tswe that he would
tell an Astounding story" that would
force Charles r Murphy. leader OF
Tammany Hall, to take the stand in
his own defense. Up until few
nights ago, II was learned from au-
thoritative sources. the governor still
was insistent that he be allowed to
tell his story, but he finally yielded,

torneys.
