MIR. PLIMLEY LOSES OUT
HIS NAME WITHDRAWN BY THE
 PRESIDENT.
Hamilton Fish is Appointed as As sistant Treasurer of the United States at New York and the
 Senate Confirms Him.

Washington, March 1S.-Presdent Roosevelt today withdrew the nomination of William Plimley for Assistant Treas urer of the United States at New York and late today sent to the Senate the nomination of Hamilton Fish to the office and it was confirmed promptly by the Senate.
 MT Plimley's nomination was confirmed by the Senate the day after its transmits sion to that body by President Roosevelt. His commission was made out and signed by the President but had not been de- ivered when at the instance of Senator Aldrich, Chairman of the Finance Com mittee. the Senate adopted a resolution recalling the appointment from the Pres tdent for further consideration.
 It developed that charges had been made against Mir. Plimley which the Sem ate desired to investigate. Protests from important financial interests in New York subsequently, were filed with President Roosevelt against the appointment of MT. Plimley. The protests also reached the Treasury Department which made an investigation.
 Today Assistant Secretary Armstrong of the Treasury Department had a con- ference with the President at which 1t was decided that in view of the gravity of the charge. MT. Plimley could not be commissioned. The President then with drew the nomination from the Senate.
 Concerning the withdrawal of the ap- pointment the following official an- nouncement was made at the White House by Secretary Loeb: '
 Tn view of the investigations made by the Treasury Department. the President has felt obliged to withdraw the nomi- nation of William Plimley for Assistant Treasurer at New York and this has been done.''
 President Roosevelt then had a confer- ence with Senator Platt Mir. Plimley having been endorsed by both Senators Platt and Depew and informed them that under the circumstances he felt fully jus tified in withdrawing the nomination of Mir. Plmley. Tn this action Senator Platt Rcquiesced. The Senator suggested the name of Hamilton Fish of New York and the President agreed immediately to ap- point him."
