Will Act on Drummond Complaint
After Controller Confers
with Him.

Mayor Kline does not want to delay
action on Controller Prendergasts COM
plant against Michael j. Drummond,
Commissioner of Charities. If the Control
Ter still wants Drummond removed. The
matter has been hanging fire ever since
the day Mr.. Prendergast sailed for Eu-
rope, when, as was told exclusively IN
yesterdays Tribune, the Controller asked
the Mayor to take under consideration
what he regarded as Drummonds I'M
Warranted political activities against him
during the recent municipal campaign.
The Mayor said yesterday he could not
comment on the present status OF the
case because he did not know how great
the breach was between the Controller
and the Commissioner Of Charities. and
he wanted 70 be fair TO them both. Mr..
Kline has asked Mr. Prendergast TO con-
fer with him, and expects him to do so
on Friday or Saturday.
The removal of the Commissioner OF
Charities is not regarded as likely. but
since the issue has been raised some sort
OF action will have 70 be taken IL Is
thought that the Controller will withdraw
the charges. which are embodied In
letter from the Controller 10 the Mayor.

written by Drummond in which the o,d
frendergast- Drummond controversy over
the payment of city money IN Catholic
institutions was revived This move an
uirfnonds part. 1t is said, the Control
iei .olu Mayor Kline. was unworthy of
public officer.
II Is understood Mayor Kline lost no
tiine IN getting into communication with
commissioner Drummond and making
known to him the Controllers complaint.
ana that the Commissioner of Charities
was equally prompt in answering the
mayor. 1t is also believed that the Mayor
was satisfied with Mr.. Drummond's ex-
piahation of his course, but was willing
u give the Controller a chance to make
counter reply.
commissioner Drummond was silent on
the situation Yesterday. He said he was
wiling to talk on almost any other sub
Ject In regard to his work of the last four
years. but that on the Prendergast
charges he was bound by courtesy not to
speak
Mayor Kline is my superior officer"
said the Commissioner. and until he
speaks on this subject my mouth is
closed" Mr.. Drummond said. however.
that II was a mistake to say that he had
any feeling of bitterness toward Control
Ter Prendergast.
II Mr.. Prendergast is very earnest in
his desire to have Drummond out of the
Department of Charities he will have to
wait only twenty-three more days. as Mr..
Drummond does not look for a reappoint
ment from Mr.. Mitchell.
