Controller May Boom Himself for Governor

Controller Grout does not like Governor Odelrs
scheme for financing the canal enlargement project
and VIII say so at length in a few days In 4
formal criticism 1t IS limited among the Tammany
leaders that the Controller will use the canal
financing issue TO boom himself for the Governor
shio nomination The Tammany men say that he
would not hesitate TO array the Democratic cities
against the Republican rural districts In order
favorably TO impress the next State Democratic
convention with his availability as candidate for
Governor.
1t was learned last night that the Tammany
members OF the legislature will be ordered to
oppose the financing OF the canal project on tho
lines suggested by the Governor at every turn
on the ground that the city will be made 10

prospectus OF some get rich quick concern. II
is understood that Mr., Grout objects particularly
10 the plan to save the State money by having the
counties assume bonds carrying interest until
maturity. Mr. Grout says this is practically no
economy at all. Another thiug which he frowns
upon Is the suggestion that the state raise
more money by indirect taxation. He holds that
the banks. the trust companies. liquor dealers ana
certain other corporations already overtaxed
