INF EACHMENT VOTE
IS NOW PREDICTED
IN ARCHBALD'S CASE.
Believed Senate Will Decide
Against Judge by
TWo-thirds.

That the Senate will find Robert w.
Archibald. judge of the Commerce Court
of the United States, guilty OF high
crimes and misdemeanors, when the
vote is taken upon the thirteen charges
of impeachment lodged against him by
the House of Representatives, appeared
likely to day, as the final arguments
were being made. The vote, according
to a private canvass mad by Senators,
may be fifty-five or sixty-hve fer con-
viction, against twenty to twenty-five
for acQuittal.
Two-thirds of the Senators voting will
be required to convict. Without regard
to the evidence in the Archibald case
the members will, to a large extent, re-
spond to what they believe will be the
verdict of public opinion In their own
States.
Some of the New England Senator'S.
it is known, have been surprised by the
opposition encountered by their friends
in the recent campaign because of their
vote in the Lorimer case.
Democratic Senators, almost without
exception, appear to be against Arch
bald. The only roll call thus far taken.
upon the admission of certain testimony
demanded by the prosecution. found
majority of the Independent Repub-
licans against the accused.
Archibald relies for vindication upon
the regular" Republicans and some
of the Southern Democrats who are said
to believe him the victim of an attempt
to discredit the judiciary.
Contending that the testimony proved
the charges set forth In the articles Of
Impeachment, and that the charges con-
stituted Improbable offenses, Congress-
man Sterling, for the House managers,
began the arguments on the side of the
prosecution in the Archibald trial In the
Senate this afternoon.
The Senate adopted an order whereby
the next three days will be taken up
with arguments. Fifteen hours will be
allowed for arguments, one-haf to each
side A vote will be taken on the ques-
ton of Judge Archbald's guilt or inno-
cence. Saturday afternoon.
Congressman Sterling. in beginning
his remarks, emphasized the fact that
the counsel for the defendant intended
to rely on the single proposition that
the charges against Judge Archibald do
not constitute Improbable offenses be-
cause they are not indictable offenses.
Mr.. Sterling, therefore, addressed him.
self to this question.
Congressman Sterling then cited
number of authorities in support of his
contention.
