ANOTHER JOLT IN QUEENS
Nomination of Merrill Wories Cas-
GreSser Holds DecEnation.

The Republicans Of Queens placed John B, Mer-
rill former District Attorney, on their ticket for
the Office Of Sheriff yesterday. Mr.. Merrill Is a
Democrat. He had been discussed in connection
with q nomination for County Judge Justice of
the Supreme Court, but he opposed Joseph Cas-
sldy in the primaries and his name was not men
toned at the convention. The vacancy on the Re-
publican ticket came about through the inability
Of Alderman Thomas NJ Quinn TO accept the nomi-
nation
Mr. Merrill has his law ONCE at No. 40 Jackson
avenue, Long Island City, where he purposes. to
establish his political headquarters He is one Of
the most aggressive campagners in Queens. and
he is familiar with the intrgues of the Demo
cratic factions il is predicted that his speeches will
add much zest TO the campaign Unusual depres-
sion displayed in the camp OF Joseph Cassidy
when he received the news of Mr.. Merrill's nomi-
nation.
The Democratic faction led by Borough President
Gresser is causing the Cassidy adherents cansd-
cradle annoyance. Winning in the primary count
Cassidy sought to placate Gresser by naming him
for the Office of County Clerk As the office pays
about $4,000 a year in fees 1t thought that
Gresser might be prevailed upon to take it. But
Gresser wrote his declinatioD Friday and made
the necessary affidavit. Instead of filing it imrne
diately. however those having the declination IN
charge say they will take the full time allowed by
law Cassidy cannot name any until the Gres
ser people file the declination. II is understood
that the nomination will go TO ex-Sheriff Joseph
Meyerrose, Of Ridgewood.
Dissatisfied with Cassidy and his convention
number Of prominent Democrats, who are known
as .'Reorganizers" are getting up independent
Democratic ticket with Gresser at the head for
Borough President.

ton OF affairs at the present time, and
proved most instructive. The board OF
control is a comparatively recent de-
parture in state affairs, he said. He
classified the state institutions, charit-
able and otherwise, and supported al
most wholly by the revenues of the
state, as follows: First, educational in
situations; second, charitable; third,
hospitals for the insane; fifth, indus
trial schools, and sixth, penal instftu-
lions, naming those of Iowa, in each
class. Each of these was formerly gov
erned by a board Of trustees, in whose
choice political preferment played a
prominent part Now however, fifteen
of the eighteen are under the board
of control of three men, appointed by
the governor for siX-year terms
A bill is now pending, he cited, to
place under a similar board of control,
the three state educational institutions,
which are still managed by boards of
trustees. The author of the board of
control bill, which was passed at the
tWenty-seventh general assembly and
took effect in July of 1898, was the late
Senator "Tom" Healy, of FIT. Dodge.
Mr.. cummings pointed out as one of the
greatest factors in favor of the board
of control the fact that the board is
practically free of POLITICAL influence
and affiliations, and so Tar, the state
has been exceptionally fortunate in the
class of men selected. 1t is proving
most successful in it's prime object, to
harmonize the various demands upon
the state funds, and to eliminate much
of the selfishness displayed by boards
of trustees
The program closed with a vocal
solo by Miss Marian Smith, who re-
sponded to an encore. Her accom-
paniments We're played by Mn. Hosford

ballast and gravel cars.
According to General Roadma Ster

no extensive track and right ofWay
improvements begun this season, at
least not until after June 1. Mr.. Shee-

season. The company has begun to
haul gravel from its Clifford pit to the
Illinois division, where repair work has
been begun. Extra gangs of laborers
have been brought from Chicago and
