Samuel M. Williams. Staff Cor dent of The New York Evening World.) ALBANY, Jan. 12—MecCall ie go- ing. He and hie associates in the Pub- lio Service Commission, having re- fused to retire gracefully, are now to be dealt with summarily. Gov, Whitman gave them oppor- tunity to resign, but they took no no- tice. He then asked for their resig- nations, and was refused. The execu- tive and legislative powers of the State are now united in determina- tion to put them out. Gov, Whitman and Speaker Sweet of the Assembly had a conference last might to plan effective action. It was agreed that the Governor should call the attention of the Legisiature to the condition of affairs and that the law- makers should etart the fight. A epecial committee of Senate and Assembly is to make an investigation of the Commission and the manner in which it has conducted business. This committee will make @ report within a fow weeks, from which qill be devised the precise method of ex- ecution, “Tt ti fairs,” scant attention to compldints and the indifferent methods of disposing of ® shocking condition of af- sald Speaker Sweet, “The cases ought not to continue. It is common practice, eo I am informed, for the commission to hold hearings, listen a few minutes and then an- nounce, ‘Case is closed.’ The papers are then turned over to some subordl- nate and that is the end of it” WILL PUT MATTER UP T LEGISLATURE. Gov. Whitman first was inclined to deal with the situation himeelf, using his powers under the Moreland act to appoint a special investigator of his own to prepare evidence on which to base executive removal. But as the Legislature would have to participate sooner or later in framing changes in the law, it was deemed advisable to have that body do its own investi- gating at the start, When the members come to Albany to-morrow fv the session one of the firat Sees tones up for considera- tion will the Public Service Com- THE *| mission situation. Membership of the investigating commnttee will be ar- ranged by the leaders and arrange- ments made for prompt action. Both New York City and up-State Commissions will be included in the scope of the investigation, although conditions in the latter body have been much improved in recent months under the prodding of its new chair- man, Seymour Van Santvoord of Troy. The most vulnerable spot In the up- State commission's record is the Ne York City telephone rate case, which has dragged for more than a year, with the end not yet In sight and the public still compelled to pay extor- tionate rates for service. WANT TO KNOW ABOUT TELE- PHONE RATES. Many members of the Legislature who voted last session to appropriate $100,000 for the commission to con- duct an appraisal of the fompanrs property, as a basis for scientifically now asking how the made rates, money has been spent, what progress the commission has made and what return the public has received, While the general principles of rv ulation of public service corporatio: oy State commission will remain as t present, there is likely to be some ni 7 kind’ of operating machinery. ‘The proposition to consolidate the two comraissions into one ts meeting with protest from New Yorkers, who assert that a commission giving proper at- tention to its duties will have all it can attend te in the metropolis alone, The up-State commis: also points | to the enormous amo! of work it| has to do without taking on New York City troubles. ‘Objection ts raised by Republicans | in Brooklyn to the suggestion that one commission could do all the regu- lating of corporations if the rapid tranait construction duties of the city commission were transferred to the Board of Estimate and Apportion- ment. These Republicans in the Leg- {alature deolare that they will oppose turning over this work to the Mitchel administration of Fusion Democrats. JOBS ARE RICHEST PLUMS IN THE STATE.
