were filed against secretary Stod-
dard. He was charged with pro
noting the incorporation of com
panies in Arizona, for which he
received lucrative fees. In itself
this was not contary to the law, as
the secretary was entitled to the
fees of his Office, but when the
governor and legislature OF the
territory sought to curtall the
secretary's fees and put his office
on salary basis, Stoddard, 1T is
charged, endeavored to prevent the
action, and not only refused to
exhibit his books to a legislative
committee but is claimed burned
them to prevent an inspection. 1t
is alleged the fees of the office un-
der Stoddard's system paid h m
about $1,000 a year This night
against Secretary Stoddard be-
came so spirited that finally he
rendered his resignation to the
president. Today Senator Platt
of New York talked to the presi-
dent in behalf of Stoddard, who is
son-in-law of Judge Martin OF
the New York court OF appeals.
( A decision had been reached, how
ever, to accept the resignation and
the announcement of the decision
was soon afterwards made.
