M'ANENY's CHANGE OF HEART
CAUSES SURPRISE.
In the light OF this record OF the retir-
ing member Of tho commission there
was much surprise expressed to-day a.,
the letter OF Borough President Mean
eny Of Manhattan TO Gov. Dig asking
that ofic!al TO recall his nomination OF
Mr.. Cram from the Senate.
Early yesterday McAneny had told a
group o. newspapermen that there was
nothing he could see in the appointment
Of Cram which would delay a settlement,
OF the subway question. Late in the
afternoon he decided to write the Gov
ernor, refusing to say who had seer
him or what had caused him TO change
his mind.
1t was after the new Commissioner
gave out an interview saying that he
favored municipal operation. IL neces-
sary, rather than have the city submit
to Ryan. Belmont or Brady" that Mr..
McAneny issued his letter to Gov. Dix.
Mr.. McAnenys stress upon the need
OF Bassett's legal services to draw up
the new contracts Is amazing In view
OF the fact that the commission has a
chief counsel. George Coleman, who
Ia paid $4,000 u year. besides d corps OF
lawyers under Mr.. Coleman who have
been getting ready for the drawing up
of the subway contracts under full pay
for the last -four years.
Mr.. Cram was asked how he would
vote IN the commission provided HI
found that the four remaining members
OF the Hughes regime had reached q
conclusion.

NEXT WEEK" FOR TRANSIT RE.
PORT, M'ANENY SAYS.

President McAneny, who Is Chairman
OF the Transit Committee OF the Board
OF Estimate and Apportionment, to-day
said that In all probability his commit
tee would maxi its report NEXT
WEEK. Mr.. McAneny denies that his
views upon the subway question drafted
upon the salubrious shores OF Lake
George LAST WEEK have been corr
rectly quoted in any Of the metropolitan
newspapers.
They ere Just guesses." was his dis
mlssal Of the published reports.
Mr.. McAneny began to think officially
upon the subway question Feb. /, 1911,
or four months ago. The Borough
President has been in ONCE since Jan.
!. 1910. or a year and five months. When
he was running for the Office In October.

Fully twenty-four hours before Mr..
McAneny's letter TO the Governor was

a letter from the new Commissioner
was on Its way to .''Oany. In this 1t

opinion and secure better transit con-

The details OF alleged tampering Of
