GEORGE T. MOORE RESIGNS.
Sequel to Yesterdays Hearing at
Agricultural Department

Additional light was thrown On the gen.
eral condition of affairs in the Agricultural
Department today by the resignation of
DR.. George T. Moore, psychologist and al
gologist of the Department of Agriculture
This action is the sequel of hearing at
the department yesterday, at which it was
alleged by two representatives of an agri-
cultural publication that DR.. Moore's wife
held stock in a company manufacturing
culture for soil incubation, while Moore,
who had charge of the preparation and re-
vision of bulletins regarding the enrich
ment of farms. directed farmers to the
concern in question for their supplies of the
culture.
The resignation of DR.. Moore and it's
acceptance were announced in statement
issued by the department today This
statement consists of DR.. Moore'S letter
to the Secretary and an attached ex-
PLANTATION of Moore's relations with the
nitro-culture company, the concern man
ufacturing the material for soil innocula-
ton. Tie resignation was Endorsed by
Secretary Wilson to take effect immedi
ately.
DR.. Moore's Letter.
In his letter to Secretary Wilson Dr.
Moore says I'm view of the criticism
which has been made against my work ami
the position l am placed In by this critt-
cism l feel that the department should be
relieved of any difficulty which may arise
through my present connection with it,"
The attached statement by DR.. Moore con-
tains correspondence with his superiors in
the bureau of plant industry, Beverly /.
Galloway chief of the bureau, and Albert
F. Woods pathologist and Psychologist
who acts as chief in the absence of DR..
Galloway.
This correspondence is given by DR..
Moore with a view of justifying the course
he had pursued toward the department in
that 1t showed that his superiors were cog
infant of the fact that he had relations
with the nitro culture company
Relations With the Company.
According to DIR. Moore, a proposition
was made to him in July, 1904. by persons
living at West Chester Pa, for the forma-
ton of a company to manufacture inocu-
Iatng material under patents taken out by
the Department of Agriculture in the name
of DR.. Moore.
He said he told these men they probably
would always have competition with the
government, and that in any event there
could be monopoly of the business. for
the reason that the department had taken
the patents in a manner to prevent any
commercial discrimination. The West
Chester men were willing to take the risk
and offered DR.. Moore a salary and an In
terest in the business, with the understand
ing that the company should have the ex-
elusive right to any further discoveries
made by DIR. Moore.
After receiving this offer DIR. Moore says
in his statement that he wrote to Mr..
Woods. telling him that his prospects with
the new company seemed better than he
could expect from the department Mr.
Woods then recommended raise OF, salary
for DR.. Moore, and said It was Mr.. Gal
loway's feeling that he should complete his
