Show GOVERNOR SBLZER IS IMPEACHED New York Executive Faces Removal From Office by State Legislature Albany, N. Y., Aug. 13. Gov, William Sulzer was impeached at 5:16 o'clock this morning by the Democratic majority in the assembly of the New York legislature. The vote, 79 to 45, came after an all-night session and after the governor's wife had made an eleven-hour effort to save him at the risk of sacrificing sacri-ficing her own reputation. Organization leaders, who had sparred for time all night in the fear that their program of impeachment im-peachment would be wrecked by the lack of votes, welcomed newcomers to the assembly chamber, smmoned from New York, during the early hours and, assured of victory by their presence, started a rapid fire of legislation with the adoption of the impeachment resolution. |
