for shipping Newfoundland fishermen to
engage in the herring industry in Bay OF
Islands without paying the Canadian
license fee Previous to this year the
Canadian government regarded the herring
vessels as traders and exacted no license
fee, but Secretary Root having recently
decided that an American fishing register

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 28--Assembly-
man Edwin A. Merritt, jr., added more
fuel tonight to the hres Of facffonal
anger arising out OF the speakership con-
test. Mr.. Merritt declared that the sup
port which Superintendent Of Insurance
Hendricks and Superintendent Of Banks
Kilburn have been giving to Gov. Fig
gins In the reorganization fight Is to be
explained on the ground that Gov. Hig-
gins has continued to extend them pro-
lection in the face Of insistent demands
for their removal.
He further declares 1t to be his opinion
that the interference Of Gov. Higgins in
the speakership fight was ito protect q
lot OF people whose only hope Is an or
ganization OF affairs sufficiently satisfac-
tory to make aggressive work on the
part Of the assembly impossible"

ne ID taking part It 10 not the first case
OF presidential interference In the politics
or the state. Such interference has hereto

Organization OF Kings county was given by

said; THE action OF Mr.. Dady in taking q

welt and Gov. Higgins, has made 1t impos-
sb1e for me to continue political relation

Col. Dady in washington.

= Colonel Dady was in Washington today.
having been summoned there by President
Roosevelt. 1t was supposed that the purpose
Of the President in sending for Col Dady
was to try to win him over to the sup
port Of the program Of reorganization
which the President and Gov. Higgins
are endeavoring to put through. Mr..
Woodruff did not wait for the result OF
that conference to make known his in
tentfon to have no further political reia-
tions with Col. Dady.
! Believing that the Roosevelt Higgins
program is certain to prevail and that
Col. Dady has weakened his influence In
the Brooklyn organization by siding with
State Chairman Odell in the speakership
fight, Mr.. Woodruff saw an opportunity
for political coup and seized 1t. It has
been suspected for some time past that
he was DESTROYS Of getting complete con-
troll OF the Brooklyn Organization. He is
believed to be ambitious to be the next
republican candidate for governor. Gov
Higgins, 1t Is said, has no intention Of
running again. The talk is that Presi-
dent Roosevelt Is to give him an Inn
portant ambassadorship at the end Of his
term.
