APPEARED VERY CONFIDENT Friends Of The Impeached "Execu tive Repeated Their Assertions :: Qf, Optimism. 4 ; . ... Albany,. N- Y.', Sept.; 18.The stage ;is set, for ithe openihg-at noon toaay , for the trial of the impeachment of Wil liam Sulzer, governor of New. York, be :: fore the first high court of impeachment : ever convened in this state to' pass upon charges filed against its chief executive. a While Governor Sufzer la's't night con s' ferred with his counsel,-members of the -assembly board of managers who will act as prosecutors, discussed with their legal assistants methods of procedure. Members of the court of appeals knd the senators, who jointly compose the high : ccairt, also mapped out their plans'of action. " 1 J . , i , Friends of the impeached executive re peated their assertions that he is. in good spirits, .confident his name will be cleared of the stigma cast upon it. They were no less' certain that he had no thought of resigning, and thus escaping the ordeal. On the other hand, his op ponents were free-, in expreesirig, the ! opinion that'after the legal preliminary ' ies had been swept away and the taking . of testimony "begun, the governor would : surrender his office rather .than face cross examination. ' From the governor's camp; came no intimation of his defense 1 ' ' NThere were only surmises. These were that his counsel first would attack the validity of . the impeachment on 'the ground that the assembly had no au thority to adopt the articles while in . extraordinary session, and that efforts would be made to, prevent senators who served on the Frawley committee, and those who may be called on to testify, from sitting as judges. . ' , If the preliminary objections are over ruled it is understood that- the gover nor will base his defense, on the claim v that whatever he may have done prior to his inauguration last .January none -of his acts while executive constitutes ,.a high crime . or a misdemeanor.:. Mti - - .The belief that the .preliminary legal - technicalities will be quickly' disposed of is strengthened by the assertion today of Chief Judge Edgar M. Cellen, of the -':courf of appeals , who will preside Over the deliberations of (the high court ihat v he anticipated no delay either fnfthe .opening or the -course of the trial' '. According to present plans as soon as j the senate ,-. has'- formally f; convened!, av committee will notify . the yjudges that the" senate is ready to take up : the business of the court , and the - judges will then go to the senate cham : her.. The board of managers of the as sembly will then appear and! present the articles of impeachment. At this -point Governor Sulzer will be called to : present his answef.- This will be pre sented by his lawyers, although it is expected that if it is given the disputed points wilt-be raised by his counsel.'' The procedure to be followed, ordctt -of voting and other details, Judge Cul len said, probably would be decided by a committee; composed of judges of the court and senators. An important de velopment today was the announcement by . Chairman" Levy of the assembly managers that John B. Stanchfield, had been 'added to the prosecutors legal battery. Other attorneys, who . will aid in the prosecution are Alton B. Parkrr, Edgar T. Brackett, Eugene Lamb Kichards, " Isidore " J. Krcsel - and II ii . : , i Todd. jewi; NET' YEAR FAST'.

' j V ,. .That cheaper meats may be oncof the immediate results bf the'new Tariff is a possibility that all prudent house keepers in New Bern will look forward to v with rmore than ordinary interest. This may followthe placing of meats on , the free. list and the importation l of- the product from the countries of South - America and elsewhere where cattle is more abundant and the prices cheaper. Already New York had com menced to import meat frorh'Argentina. It cafw be landed in that city and sold from. 2 to 3 Cents 'below the 'prevailing price of the domestic :meatp''. ' - v- Part of the imparted meat brought to New- York ' was shipped to' Virginia and North Carolina and it is-claimed that it can be sold cheaper, than- West ern ' meat.f but the quantity shipped out-from the metropolis- was too small to have, any immediate effect on the current prices i' So far as is known none- of the meat J-eached New Bern. Even if the meats are first brought into New York where, there is to be established a direct line of steamers to Argentina it is "declared that they can .. .be . reshipped -to- North Carolina and . sold jat less than rthe Western refragerated meat. 1 All' that ' will be needed, it is said, is to create a demand for - he imported product and increase the shipments so as -to supply all the demand from , whatever quarter - it comes.' - ( The Government has taken care to see that the importaions are surrounded by ample safeguards to make it almost impossible to foist unfit meat 'on, the consumers here. This is contained in that' clause' of' the tariff bill which placed meats on the free list, and s further emphasized in the power given to the President 'and officials -of the Agricultural Department to regulate these imports 5 j 5 - .

Ho-,., v tu , r decision in the habeas corpus proceed ings now pending in New Hampshire. Of late, however, the court has disposed of such important cases quickly. Whether an appeal' to the Supreme Court from the action of Federal Judge Aldnch, before whom the habeas corpus proceedings were brought, may be grant ed, will rest entirely, it is said, with Judge Aldrich himself. A few years ago an appeal from the denial of a writ of habeas corpus was grantable as a matter of right Prac tices grew up, however, which courts regarded as travesties on justice, and the law was changed to give the judge passing on the case the power to say whether there was sufficient doubt as to the pom s raised to justify an appeal. The Supreme Court does not meet before" October. 13. "There now, are more than 700 cases awaiting disposition and it will take the court more than two years to pass on them. Upon the equest of either the State o: New Hampshire or of New Vork, the court might advance the case for consideration about the first Monday in December. .In the ordinary course of events a "decision .would b'e handed down in the ' following January. , Much doubt is expressed here as to whether the "New .

The adoption of a rule for aggrega ting weights on two or more packages forwarded by one shipper at the same time, upon one receipt to one con signee at one local address, fixing the application of the rate upon the act ual weight of each such article when about twenty pounds.
