NORMENT LEAVES
RAILWAY COMPANY
Resignation Accepted; Clar-
ence King Is Appointed.


! The resignation OF Clarence F. Nor
ment as president of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company was &C
cepted at a meeting of the board of
directors Of that corporation yesterday
afternoon in the American Security and
Trust Company. Clarence King, presi-
dent OF the Washington Virginia Rail-
way Company, who has been on the
directorate of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company since last Janu-
ary, was elected to fill the pINce made
vacant by Mr.. Norment's resignation.
AS far as could be learned last night,
the rumored consolidation between the
washington-virginia and Washington
Railway and Electric Company was not
seriously considered by the directors at
yesterdays meeting. The general i'm
preston is that, while some radical
change in statuts is contemplated by the
two companies, merger or consolidation
plans do not play prominent parts.
While no member of the directorate Of
officers Of the company willing 60 dis
cuss the question could be found yester-
day. it is understood that the officials Of
the two companies have decided that an
merger of the two corpo-
rations would be legally impossible under
existing laws and the charters under
which the companies now operate.
To officials OF the company Mr.. Nor
ment's resignation does not come as
distinct surprise. It Is said. The state
ment was given out yesterday that Mr..
Norment had been anxious to resign for
several months, in order to devote a
greater share OF his time to other inter-
ests.
Mr.. Norment came down to Washing
ton from his summer home in New Lon
don, Conn, expressly to hand in his resig-
nation. Before leaving for New London
last night he gave out the following
statement:
MY resignation as president of the
Railway and Electric Com
oany Is in no way actuated by dimin-
shed interest in the affairs OF the prop
srty, but I desire to be relieved of the
ipon the head of big company of this
Iind and to which, on account OF my
many other business affairs, 1 cannot
give the attention they should have. My
lction is further prompted by the fact
hat my successor, Mr.. Clarence P. King,
chosen from our present board of direc-
ors. is eminently fitted for and is willing
o accept the position without in any way
ndangering the existing organization
Mr.. Kings achievements as practical |
abroad man in building up properties OF
his kind and his interest in the public
Utilities in and around Washington are
90 well-known for comment on my part.
IS said before. my interest in the COM
any is not Iessened in the slightest de-
rec. am still member of the board |
( directors, where I shall continue to
erve the s.ockholders to the best Of my
bility.''
