Election of MIR. HeaIy.

Election of MIR. HeaIy.
J. W. L. Corning, one of the embers of the
school board, who voted to retain Messrs.
Healy, Mullane and Gerlach in their official
positions, does not relish the publicity which
has been given the affair by the disgruntled
Republicans. Mr.. Corning was quoted as
follows, yesterday
l was appointed last summer on the board
to take Mr.. Scho1le's place. | never asked
for the appointment; in fact, never cCm-
municated with the mayor in any way,
reappointment, l never ask for that,
either. Mayor Doran asked me if would
accept a reappointment, and said l would.
| was never asked to agree to any pJl:cy
or line of action; at the same time l knew
what Mayor Doran's wishes were to
certain appointing nts. He did not ask me,
and l. am sure did not wish me, to pledge
myself to anything. A number of o.her
gentlemen expressed to me their views and
wishes. and all received careful considera-
ton. When it came to voting l exercs I'd
my best judgment, and acted, seemed
to me, for the best interests of the schools,
without considering at all the poit cal
question. The other g5n lemen of the oard,
l have no doubt voted as seemed to them
best. l have no apologies to make or ex
cuscs to OFFER and expect to take the conse-
serious, probably. | dislike exceedingly to
have my family dragged into the matter,
and see no reason why it should be
given out authoritatiyely'' that my son,
the mayors private secretary, is to be put
out Of Office because of my action. As
matter of fact he knew more Of how l
would vote than did anybody else.

TROUBLES OF CORNING.
They Seem to Multiply for the Pri-

DOrAn.


The talk as to a change being made
in the office of secretary to the mayor
now held by Charles r. Corning still
continues around the city hall.
Secretary Corning said yesterday:
There is nothing to the rumor that
am to be DISCHARGED. / asked the
mayor about it this morning, and he
told me he had not considered the mat

Mayor Doran, asked last evening
about Corning, said: mo such action
has been taken, and do not know that

A reporter on an evening paper visit
ed the MAYORS office yesterday, and
was spoken to in what he claimed was
a very insulting manner, by Corning.
The reporter filed a complaint against
the secretary with the mayor, and that
official promised that the charge would
be investigated.
Mr.. Corning said the remark he made
to the newspaper man was in the ma
ture of a. "josh,'' and that was all there
was to it. The wise ones claim that
the complaint will be used as a pre-
text for the mayor to decapitate his
present secretary and make room for
Mr.. Angel.
AS Mr.. Corning's appointment WE
said at the time to have been made
at the request Of the proprietor of the
