PRESIDENT OF THE ADAMS Ex.
PRESS BOUNCED.
The Charge Against Him Malfeasance in
Office-Action Taken at n Meet
ing of the Directors.

NEW York, Oct. l3-The dismissal of
President John Hoey of the Adams express
company came as O complete surprise to
the business community. Many men promi-
nent in business affairs did not
hear of the dismissal until to-day,
although the decisive action was
taken by the board of directors of the COM
pany at meeting held late yesterday even
ing. Vice-President Clapp Spooner at the
same meeting handed in his resignation.
Both men are charged with malfeasance
in office. The alleged malteasance in office
for which President Hoey was removed and
Nice-President Spooner allowed to resign
was the sale by the two officers and others of
the Boston Dispatch express company and
the kensley express company to the Adams
company for $500 600.
A meeting of the board of directors of
the Adams express company was
joy vice-presdent, to succeed Messrs.
Hoey and Spoonor The Dos ition of trustee
vacated by MIR. SpoOner was left vacant
until the next meeting of the board. All of
the members of the board We're present
with the exception of Mr.. Spooner.
Mr.. HoeY was present. he
eluded the reporters. Clarence
a Seward presided. Mr.. Sanford arose
and asked Mr.. Hoey to resign his position
on the board of directors. Mr.. Hoey fatty
refused. He said that the direct
ors could put him out OF the
presidency, but it was beyond
their power to displace him as a director.
He is reported to have made quite speech.
No objection was made to his sitting as Il
member and casting his vote Some
of the board are of the opinion
that they have power to eject him.
Mr. Sanford was nominated for president
by w. z. Densmore and was elected by
majority of six votes. l.. c. Weir re-
ceived two votes. Fred X. Lovejoy
was unanimously elected vice-presi
dent. President Sandford at once
assumed charge and appointed Messrs.
Loveioy and Dinsmore as committee to in
quire into the financial status of the COM
pany They will report to the board at its
next meeting on the 2Sth. The meeting
was q protracted one, yet the directors
claim that the election of officers was the
only business transacted.
Mr.. Densmore said The matter of Mr..
HOey's connection with the company WAS
not Itioned beyond his being asked to
resign. Nothing was said about bringing
suit against him, and in fact nothing was
done beyond the election of officers

the facts being on his side he was able to
make statements that were unanswerable.
The hardest blow that was struck by Gov
ernor Campbell was a certificate from the
state board of equalization that in ten years
the appraised value of farm lands in Ohio
had deprecated S9O0G0,000 and that upon
an appraiSement of perhaps one-half the
actual value OF land, SO that the deprecia-
tion was in fact about 500, 100000. He also
had and read in the same connection 4 re-

the wealth of Ohio had increased S343, 0O0,-

Southern Candidates.
Srccial to the Gazette.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 13-There are many
Southern candidates appointment on the
interstate commerce commission, and South
ern senators and representatives are now
embarrassed by the conflicting claims of
their ambitious constituents. President
Harrison, however has relieved the situa-
ton little and discouraged several candi-
dates by stating that the appointment will
not go to any man living south of Tennes-
see. This statement was made to Thomas
Scott Of Montgomery, Ala, who has been
urging the claim of Henry Il. Shorter OF
Alabama. The president said to Scott:
Your zeal in behalf of your Democratic
friend is highly commendable, and have
no doubt he is all that he is represented to
be, but one thing is to be born in mind, Ala
bama and Georgia have about an even share
of Federal Offices just now. Tennessee has
not had much lately, and l do not think the
appointment will go south of that state"
The only Tennessee candidate is S. T.
Wilson of Gallatin, who is being pressed by
Senator Bate. There are two candidates
from Georgia, Thomas Glenn of Atlanta
and eX-Representative Clements of Rome.
The president has great admiration tor
Judge Culberson of Texas, but if he gives
him any appointment it will probably be
that of member of the new court of ap-
pealS.
