BILLIARD RESIGNS.
Counsel Makes Statement of His Rea-
son for Leaving Directorate.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, August L.
the resignation of John l.. Billiard of
Meriden from the directorates of the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
Railroad company and the New Eng
land Navigation company was announc-
ed here yesterday. Homer $. Cummings
Of Stamford, his counsel, made the an
nouncement after i conference with
Mr.. Billiard.
Mr.. Cummings statement says that
Mr.. Billiard desired to resign several
months ago in order to be relieved
from business cares, but refrained be
cause it did not seem desirable to
take any step which might change the
status of affairs while the interstate
commerce commission was investigat
ing the financial transactions of the
New York, New Haven 4 Hartford
Railroad company
The statement continues: Gin view
Of the fact, however, that that investi-
CATION has been completed aud for
NAL report filed, Mr.. Billiard now feels
free to submit his resignation. 1t is on
" fair to say that there is an additional
reason for filing his resignation.
""The report of the interstate COM
merce commission deals in part with
the relations between the New York,
| New Haven & Hartford Railroad com,
pany and the Billiard company. A com
mittee of the directors of the railroad
has been appointed to investigate the
report further upon the Billiard com
/ pany affairs; so far as the railroad com
pany may be interested in them. Mr..
| Billiard says that his continued presence
on the board of directors might posi-
| bIv be embarrassing to his associates In
conducting that investigation and that
it is his wish that such investigation
should be rs full and complete and un-
1 limited in scope as the most exacting
could require. Under these cireum-
stances it will be manifest that the
action taken by Mr.. Billiard was die
tated by the strietest sense of propri.
