FEAR 4 LONG DELAY
IN THE sULzER TRIAL
Court Asked to Recommend
Bringing of New Article in
Case Certain Testimony is
Not Included.

ALBANY, n. Y, Oct. Is. - The
possibility of an indefinitely long de-
lay in reaching a verdict as TO the
guilt or innocence of Gov. William
Sulzer doomed up at his trial Tues
day
This was suggested when counsel
for the impeachment managers asked
that the court recommend TO the as
sembly the bringing of a new article
Of impeachment in the event that the
testimony of Duncan w. Peck, su-
perintendent of public works, and
Henry l.. Morgenthau, ambassador
to Turkey, should be found not to be
relevant to any charge contained in
the present articles.
Whether this testimony was relev-
ant TO article " which charges the
before the Frawley investigation COM
mittee, was the subject of debate
Tuesday in executive session and was
undecided when adjournment was
taken until Wednesday morning.
The executive session will be con-
tinued Wednesday and on the result
of the courts decision, will depend
proceed to vote now or await the &C
ton of the assembly on the question
of bringing the suggested new article
of Impeachment.
Should the latter course be
adopted, the future progress Of the
trial will be a matter of speculation.
The question would at once arise
whether the necessary majority of
the assembly TO vote the new article
could be obtained This question, il
was suggested Tuesday night ii would
likely to be affected by the fact that
many of the assem- blymen who voted
for the present impeachment ar
ticles. would be candidates at the
coming election. and the probability
that the politics might be injected
into the assembly's action 10 an acute
degree.
Even should it be possible to mus
ter enough votes in the assembly to
adopt the new article at an early
date the constitution requires that the
governor be 7iven two days notice
before being called upon to answer.
The specific issue placed before the
court in all day arguments OF coun-
sci was whether the Peck-Morgenthau
testimony constituted a new charge
against the governor.
