FRIDAY, BUT NO SIGN is GIVEN AS TO HOW
IT WILL BE TREATED.
Mayor Wurster called his cabinet togetner
yesterday afternoon for consultation on the
Consolidation bill. which Is now awaiting MS
approval or disapproval. The heads OF the oe-
partments were closeted in the Mayors private
office for over an hour. beginning at O'CLOCK
but after the meeting had adjourned none OF
the conferrees would give any Information as 10
the results attained. Mayor Wurster said that
each Of the men present had explained his atti-
tude toward the bill. out he would not say
whether the bill had been generally approved
or disapproved. 1t is certain. however. that
unless most Of the cabinet officers have recently
changed their views on the consolidation ques-
ton the bill found few friends In the confer
ence All the members of the cabinet were
present except Park Commissioner woodruff
who Is confined TO his house by an attack OF the
grip.
Mayor Wurster said yesterday afternoon that
the statement of an afternoon newspaper that
he would return the bill to Albany disapproved
was premature and unauthorized. He VIII
mark the bill with his approval or MS olsap-
prevail before Friday noon and send II back 10
Albany. Until he has started 1t upon Its return
Journey he will make no announcement OF MS
decision The Mayors closest anti-consolida-
rion friends say they absolutely certain
that he will veto the measure.
