SULzER HANGING
BETWEEN FORCES
His Desire Is to Testify, and His
Counsel Are Absolutely
Opposed to 1t.
SMALL HOPE OF AcouITTAL
For First Time Since Trial Be
gan, Governor Admits Chances
Are Against Him.
Special to The Times-Dispatcb

Albany. y. Y, October 4-Govcrnor
William Sulzer is tonight suspended
between two powerful opposing forces
One Is his desire 10 appear before
tho high court OF Impeachment which
is now trying him for high crimes ana
misdemeanors." and make a statement
attacking Charles T.. Murphy and the
Tammany forces. who Sulzer alleges
conspired TO bring about The impcach-
ment.
The other is tho irrcvocablc order OF
D. Cady Herrick and Harvey D, Hin
man. counsel for the Governor before
the Impeachment court, that their
client must not appear in person ut the
trial, combined with the growing de-
mand of many of tho Governors for
mer political associates that he refrain
from appearing ut the trial, for they
fear he would drag them down in his
attempt TO attack the Tammany forces.
Little Hope of AcGuittnI.
1t is believed Governor Sul3cr is in
clined TO listen to tho latter force. es
pecially since some OF his associates
lave succeeded in convincing him that
he has little hope for acquittal Mt the
hands of the impea chment court.
For the first time since the trial
opened. the Governor openly admitted
among his friends to-day That he felt
that the odds were all against his got
ting a favorable verdict. Coupled with
this acknowledgment. tho Governor
makes one OF the charges which he so
much desires to hurl In the teeth or
the Assembly, which composes tho ma
iority OF the court that is rat the
jury Is packed"
While the Governor Is Weighing tho
merits OF the different plans tho time
draws near when his counsel Will no
forced to go before the court and pre-
sent tho evidence for the defendant
Tho nature OF the evidence is tho
question OF the hour in Albany
Whnt VIII Be Defense.
What will be the defense" has be-
come next In Importance to "Will sui
2er take tho stand In his own defense?"
Mr.. Ilerrick was tonight placed In
possession Of q piece of important evi-
dencc. which was said to be OF such
moment ~ to entirely change the ten
tative plans for defense. This evidence
concerns the disposition OF large por-
ton OF the Sulzer campaign funds, ana
is believed to account to n consider
able extent for the $4,000 which the
Governor claims was in tho form of
personal gifts.
Politicians who were at ono time or
another closely associated with tho
Governor. pointed out tonight that any
attack which Sulzer might make
against Murphy or Tnmmany in gen
eral. would. of necessity. draw in many
men to whom Sulzer Is indebted In one
way OF another. and thus they would
be dragged down with the Governor.
Useless Sacrifice.
