TRASH AND SNUG HARBoR BOARD.
RUMoR THAT THE MANAGEMENT OF THE IN
STTTTrTTON MAY BE INVESTTzATED

RUMoR THAT THE MANAGEMENT OF THE IN
sTITUTIoN MAY BE INVESTIGATED.
Some Of the friends Of Captain G. d. S. Trask
formerly governor Of the Sailors Snug Harbor
who declined to accept reelection president of
the Marine Society Monday because the Office
carries with il membership In the Board of Trus-
tees of the Sailors Snug Harbor, said yesterday
that the severance Of his official connection with
the Board of Trustees might be the signal for an
effort to have the rules Of the Harbor changed by
the Supreme Court. to have the management in
vestigated by a committee from the Assembly.
When asked regarding this. Captain Trask said
that while he leaving the Board only because
he found himself out of sympathy with the other
members, could sometimes do more good
outside than inside.
He felt that the manner in which the Snug Har-
Dor was managed was not as economical Il
might be. and that the wishes of the founder Of
the Snug Harbor were not being carried out In the
action of the Board Of Trustees permitting men
upon the presentat ton of papers showing that thew
had been hOnorably discharged, regardless Of the
length OF their service while sailors from the
merchant service, for whom the Snug HarbOr was
established, were required to have a record of five
years service before they could be admitted
