ALBANY, Jan. 27.-The State Regents Do
partment IL amazed at the Introduction to-day
Of o bill by Senator wray Of Brooklyn ma
terially changing tho provisions Of the certi.
1ed public accountants law, which has been
In operation but q year. Tho animus Of its
promoter is apparent. Tho first Beard of Ex.
aminers under this law comprised Charles Il.
Sprague OF New York city, Frank Breaker Of
Brooklyn, and Charles w, Haskins Of New
York city, whose terms expired in 1899, 1898.
and 1897, respectively. This board was en-.
powered to examine and issue certificates to
persons desiring to practice as certified public
accountants. Mr.. Breaker was the Secretary
of tho board. Complaint was made TO the Re-
gents that he was using his office to further his
own personal ends, and the specific charge was
made that Mr.. Breaker had published n book
called Tho American Accountants Manual"
supposedly designed for the use Of candidates
in preparing for an examination before tho
State Board Of Certified Public Accountants
Tho book was cold at 80 a volume.
Last June the Regents called upon Mr..
Breaker to either stop the publication of the
book or resign as a member Of the board. He
resolution, abruptly terminated. the tenure Of
office of the three members of tho Board Of
Haskins, were each immediately ,reappointed
for IA full term of three years, Mr.; Breaker was
cropped ana James Il. AnyOn-Ol NeW 1Ork city
named to succeed him. Mr.. Breaker protested
against this apparent summary removal. and
asked Attorney General Hancock for permits
sion to hiring an action to test Mr.. Anyon's title
to his office. A spirited hearing on the appli-
cation was had before the Attorney.General,
Senator Wray appearing as counsel for Mr..
Breaker. The Attorney-General has not yet
allowed Mr.. Breaker to the action.
Under the present law the Regents may ap-
point any certified public accountant as a mem.
Der OF the board. and the power to grant certi6-
Gates Is discretionary. Senator Wray's bill in
trodnced to-day provides that the Regents must
appoint as members of tho board one each from
the American Association of Public Account
ants, the National Society of Certified Public
Accountants In the United States and the New
York State Society of Certified Public Ac-
countants. Each society Is to nominate two
candidates for membership In the board and
from these the Regents are to choose. Mr..
Breaker has considerable influence in the first
two named societies. and II this bill becomes q
law IL is feared that before long he and his
friends would have control of the State Board Of
Certified Public Accountants.
Since the law has been In operation twenty
seven candidates have failed to pass the ac-
countants' examination. A provision in Sena-
or Wray's bill extends for n year the exemption
from n State examination of persons desiring
certificates as certified public accountants. and
would admit all corners who had worked for u
year as bookkeepers, no matter what their moral
character, which Is a much-favored restriction
in the present law.

ALBANY, Jan. 27.-Lieut. Gov. Woodruff re-
iteratcd to-day the declaration that the Brook

active measures to prevent Mayor Van Wyck
from removing Republican officeholders in
Brooklyn in cases which they believed in contra
vention of the spirit, at least, OF the charter.
He added that it should be distinctly under

ing anybody in office against the wishes of the
voters expressed at the last election.
There is q great lack Of deflniteness about the
programme of the Brooklyn men, and at least
one of them believes that the situation should
be left TO work itself out, with recourse to the
courts il necessary. Senator Brush, it was
