AGAINST WATER PLAN.
rOKEST LOVERS PROTEST.
Rctnlution to All ore Dams in Adi
rondack's Denounced Here. ■
' Representative* of various associations and
Interests which favor the preservation of the
State Forest Praesrvw at a tneetiiiK held In th*'
rooms of th*> Hew York Board of Trade ami
Transportation yesterday afternoon adopted a
resolution for th* a^SMisftsseiil o? ■ ooinmitte*
Sot the purpose of taking action to defeat th*
concurrent resoluTion in the legislature regaril
tnaT the proposed amendment to the ntate con
stitution. This resolution, which araa Intro
duced In the Legislature yesterday afternoon,
according to a dispatch received while the
meeting verm in session, provide? for the amend
ment of Section 7 of Article VII. which pro
vides that no timber may be removed from or
destroyed on the forest preserve, by excepting
"such lands as the Legislature shall provide by
law shall be used for the storage of water for
public purposes and the construction of dams
therefor."
It was charged at the meeting that the Inter
ests back of this proponed amendment were pri
vate corporations, including pulp and paper
manufacturers, who wanted the state to build
dams so that their private businesses might be
t»«neflted.
It was thought that a representative of "the
enemy" was In the meeting when It was re
ported that one of those present refused to give
his name or tell what organization he repre
sented A resolution was Quickly passed re
questing: this man. who had not been desig
nated, to give his name or leave the meeting.
Th.en Abram S. Post, who Is a member of sev
eral civic societies and who had been regularly
Invited, disclosed his Identity, and the incident
was closed.
Warren Hlgley said he had heard that there
was a fund of $200,000 at Albany for the pas
sage of the resolution. C. L. Parker, who spoke
for the sportsmen, said he had heard this rumor.
John G. Agar. of the Association for the Pro
tection of the Adirondack*, was made chairman
at the meeting. The secretary was Frank S.
. Gardner, of the Board of Trade and Transporta
tion Among other associations represented at
thft meeting were the Adirondack League Club.
th*( Caughnawaga Club, the Upper Saranac
Association, the Beaver River Club, the Scenic
Preservation Society, the Au Sable Lake and
Mountain Club, the Flushing Association, and
the. Municipal Art Society. There are a number
of similar organizations, which will have repre
sentatives on the committee.
Letters favoring the preservation of the Adl
rondacks were read from President Raymond of
Union University. President Taylor of Vassax
College, and many others. Bishop Potter, re
ferring to the proposed amendment, wrote:
"Such a purpose ought to be branded as the In
famy that It Is, and I cannot believe that the
J^egltiature will degrade itself by acquiescing in
the proposed amendment." R. £?. Stoddard.
editor of "The Northern Monthly," of Glens
J^alls. wrote: "The saving of the wilderness
tents with you of the city. Do not look for help
to the .Adirondack* for their own preservation.
The tendency of all the section is self-destruc
tion for temporary pain. There Is money in
lumber and pulp wood and dynamos, and the
Xiord knows we all need money."
Francis Slade suggested that perhaps It might
be thought that those opposed to the amend
ment were thinking only DC their own camping
Interests. It might be better, he thought, so to
amend the resolution as ♦<> prohibit private In
dividuals or corporations from getting any bene
fit from the power of the reservoirs, rather than
to try to defeat the. resolution entirely. This
Idea met with an instant storm of protest, as it
was said it would be dangerous to temporize. •
Mr. Parker said that from the sportsman's
point of view, the flooding of any part of the
forest meant desolation and the extinction of all
the game and fish left. He said those he rep
resented were going to ask that another one
million acres of forest land be acquired by the
rtate In the next three years.
Edward Hapaman Hall,* secretary of the As
sociation for the Protection of the Adirondack*,
•it the opening of the meeting read a review of
the history of the Adirondacks for the last fif
teen years. He told of a number of depreda
tions, actual and planned, and declared that the
proposed constitutional amendment was an
other step by the grabbers to get their clutches
on state property. He replied to the argu
ments of those in favor of the amendment, end
ing:
"The interests promoting this amendment
have been discredited by their record of dis
simulation and hypocrisy. When the forces of
creed and graft are rampant we cannot remain
rassive."
BILL TX THE ASSEMBLY.
What Power Companies Want —
Governor's Attitude.
Albany. Jan. 25 (Special).— Assemblyman Mer
ritt, of St. Lawrence County, presented to-day
his constitutional amendment permitting the
flooding of state lands, Senator O'NeU expects
to introduce It in the Senate in a few days, thus
launching on the necessary second year In the
legislature this glerantic scheme to take thou
sands of acres of the state's forest preserve for
the benefit of the power companies.
This measure purposes to modify a clause of
the state constitution to make It read as follows;
"Th» lands of the state now owned or hereafter
•required, constituting; the forest preserve as now
fixed by law. excepting such lands as the Legis
lature shall provide by law Vhall necessarily be
used for the storage of water for public pur
poses and the construction of dams therefor,
•ball be forever kept as. wild forest lands." To
be effective a constitutional amendment must
be submitted to two legislatures and then to a
vote of the people of the state. Senator Malby
and Assemblyman Merritt shoved the measure
through the last Legislature, and Its supporters
hope to get It through the present Legislature
early.- They have little fear of Its being de
feated on a vote at a state election.
Power' companies and anything appertaining
to them are not popular at the Capitol Just now.
In view of the tremendous sentiment loosed be
cause of the opposition to the Letchworth bill.
The power companies, which still have many
things to get from the state, were most in
•istent that opposition to that measure be aban
doned. Telegrams by the score were sent to
legislators, saying, in effect: "For heaven's
■ake, pass that bill and don't give every power
scheme in the state a black eye for all time."
In consequence of that feeling, a report had
spread that the Merrltt amendment would not
tnak* Its appearance this year, but would go
over until next session, when some of the senti
ment might have subsided. . t~.
Apparently, however, this opposition has had
little deterrent effect on the power people who
want to flood Adirondack tracts. Senator
O'Neil, in Fpcaklng of the measure to-day,
voiced the sentiment of many of them when he
raid that the passage of this bill would do com
paratively little harm to the Adirondack forest
preserve, since the total floodahle area was not
great. On the other hand, it would bring a con
siderable industrial boom to that entire region.
In lf*os petitions were filed with the River Im
provement Commission for permission to dam
Ma* Raco.uette. Baranac and Sacandaga river*
"to promote public health and safety." Such
•lamming would have flooded large tracts of
land, destroying a great quantity of timber.
Investigation of these rasas showed that in one
Instance the damming already had been begun,
and, according to the Association for the Pro
tection of the Adirondack*, in each Instance the
■SOpH behind the petitions were Interested In
power development concerns, for which there
fs si large ffeld In that territory. Hearings were
hatt, at which Senator Malby and Assembly
man ■ irerrlti appeared for the petitioner*, the
association appearing against them. Permission
was not granted. Subsequent history is told In
a letter sent by the association to each member
of the new Legislature, which says. In "part:
The counsel for two of the petitioners, finding the
constitution of the state an obstacle In the way
of their clients appropriating state lands to pri
vate uses, then, in their capacities of members of
the Legislature, instituted measures for removing
that obstacle. On April 16. 1906, only eighteen days
i^fort- final adjournment. Senator Malby ana As
f^mblyman Merritt introduced in their respective
branches of the Legislature a concurrent resolu
tion proposing to amend Section 7 of Article VII Of
th*» constitution.
There was not tlm* for the Legislature to con
sider the subject deliberately or to listen to ex
presslonrt of public sentiment. When this asso
ciation applied for a public hearing before the Ju
dtci:;rv coii'iv'i.i of the Senate, of which the
Hon. ' Edgar T. Bracken was chairman, it ■was
Informed that none could lie given, and the reso
lution was lammed through In the rush of the
closing liDi!*^ of the session.
When Governor Hughes was apked about the
measure to-day, he answered: "I do not care to
dlairuss It further than to reiterate what I said
in my message to tho Legislature on that sub
ject." '
What ho said then gives a!! ample outline of
lii« views. After urging decidedly the carrying
on of the policy of acquiring forest lands", the
Governor said:
In this connection It is well to consider the
great vahte <>f the undeveloped water powers
thus placed under state control. They snould
be preserved and held for the benefit of njl the
people, and should not be surrendered to private
Interests. It would be difficult to exaggerate
the advantages which may ultimately accrue
from these great resources of power If the com
mon right Is duly safeguarded.
JAMES G. GRAHAM OUT.
Attorney General Won't Keep Him
as Counsel in Franchise Tax Cases.
Albany. Jan. 25 (Special).— Attorney General
Jackson sent a letter to James G. Graham. »f
New York, to-day, revoking his designation as
counsel for the state in franchise tax valuation^.
Mr. Graham was First Deputy Attorney General
when Julius M. Mayer was Attorney General.
He resigned the office In the latter part of De
cember, and was Immediately designated by Mr.
Mayer to appear f<r the state before the State
Tax Commission.
In Attorney General Jackson's Relief Appro
priation bill as agreed on by him and the Sen
ate Finance Committee was an item setting
aside a sum of money for investigating viola
tions of the tax laws. The belief here is that
this latest action by the Attorney General Is
merely a forerunner of a distinct excursion
against the franchise tax delinquents. In this
connection will be remembered the charges pre
ferred last year by Frank White against the
corporation tax bureau of the Controller's of
fice. Mr. White is now First Deputy Attorney
General. Also the removal of Mr. Graham, a
Republican. Is in line with Mr. Jackson's taking
Into his own hands the investigation of election
expenses by dismissing Gherardl Davis.
The franchise tax valuation cases, in which a
review is sought, constitute a most Important
matter. Involving property valued at $450,000,
000 by the Fire Commissioners, and taxes that
amount to slightly over 130,000,000.
Many corporations In New York City have re
fused to accept the franchise valuation made by
the Tax Commission, claiming that It was far
above the actual value of the franchises, and
they have appealed to the courts. No franchise
tax. In many Instances, l.as been paid to the
state for six years.
Among the corporations which have refused to
pay this tax and demand a lower valuation are
the Metropolitan Railway Company, the Second
and Sixth Avenue railroad comyani«». the
United Electric Light and Power Company, the
Interborough Rapid Transit Company, the West
ern Union Telegraph Company and the Commer
cial Cable Company.
Owing to the amount involved and tho Impor
tance of the cases to the state, Mr. Graham re
signed his position as First Deputy Attorney
General in order that Mr. Mayer might designate
him for this work. The present Attorney Gen
eraTs letter revoking that designation gives no
reason, nor does It make any explanation for tho
action. Mr. Graham was informed of his dis
missal, requested to turn in all the papers in
the case to the Attorney General's office and
"thanked for past courtesies."

league's local option bill this year. Mr. Reed states
that there was a witness to both sides of the tele
phonic conversation between Senator Raines and
General Superintendent Russell of the league, who
will substantiate the letter's published version of
It. according to which Senator Raines said that
while not committing himself to a vigorous siuittort
of such a measure, he would not In any manner
*tand In the way of It nor obstruct it, and that he
would "give It a fair chance for vote a.nd for it«
enactment this year."
WHO IS RECORDER OF BINGHAMTON?
Proceedings May Be Begun by Republican
to Oust Democrat.
Albany. Jan. 25.— Information has been asked of

: applications for th« return of the money. The
amendments provided for a tax on shares of stock.
Irrespective of their par value. -The original law

PROTESTS AGAINST EXPULSION.
Kuntze Wants to Know Why League Forgot
Leverett and O'Neill.
Alderman Kuntze, one of tho Hearst city fathers
expelled from the Independence league County
Committee on Thursday night because he voted
lor Francis S. McAvoy for Recorder, said yesterday
at the City Hall that the action of the Hearst
county committe was unwarranted and illegal.
"Those Gehrlng people had no right to expel us."
said Kuntze. "The county committee of tho Inde
pendence League never Instructed us to support
any particular candidate for Recorder. We could
not e^ay deadlocked forever. There Is something
else to do besides taking deadlocked votes for Re
corder. When on December 81 1 went with Alder
man Peters to see Mr. Hearst about the Recorder
chip he never said anything about supporting any
particular candidate. I told him then that tho
board would be deadlocked, and that the thing tor
him to do was to see Charles F. Murphy and agre»
on a candidate. lie laughed and paid that he
never hud met Mr. Murphy or said a word to him.
and that he didn't purposa to act on my augges

was ridiculous. Why didn t they make It thorough?

but the county committee apparently forgot all
about them."
Th« aldermen expelled on Thursday night ror
voting for McAvoy were Kuntze. Torpey. Cronin
and Mulligan. Crontn voted at first for Meyers,
this Republican candidate. Alderman Noonan w*s
brought to book for voting for McAvoy. but the
county committee decided to give him another
chance to explain his vote.
It is expected that the county committee of the
Independence League In Kings County will expel

In the board. As soon us the county committee of
Queens can be got together Alderman Clifford, ar
rested on a charge of accepting money for his
vote, will be expelled.

At a meeting In the Morton Building. In Nassau
street, yesterday representatives of the smaller

panies had been abandoned were not true, and
that. In fact, the merger was already accomplished
save for some unimportant details and the signing
of papers. The meeting decided to send this tele
