I do not intend to mingle with graft

counting was ever made for this mon

proved and even If some of them are
not. the people have arrived at a ver-
dict and have determined that the

were unfounded.

tinued, for the men who are not on

Gov. Glynn Pleads
That Alien Insane
Be Govt Charges.

Albany. Feb. "A plea for the
transferance from the state TO the
federal government of the care OF the
alien insane is embodied in message
sent by Gov. Glynn to the Legislature
tonight.
The governor pointed out that more
than a third of the money spent in
the maintenance of New York's hos
pitfalls for the insane was devoted to
the care of aliens. =
"The average length of hospital res
idencc." the message recites, lis $50
years Consequently on the basis OF
the figures for 1912, the S241 aliens In
the states hospitals represents a to-
tai burden upon present and future
taxpayers of s25. ,0Ss."
THIS sum, it is figured. would run
the entire executive department of the
state for 800 years and would pay all
the states expenses for seven months.
New York proposes to do its duty to
the nation, to itself and to the unfor-
tunates of other lands who are
thrown upon its charity it proceeds.
But every principle of equity and
justice demands that New York should
be freed from the necessity of meet
ing a national problem with the re-
sources of a single state.
New York has neither the right
to prevent insane aliens entering its
borders or the authority to remove
them after their entrance. The nation
al government has assumed legislative
responsibility for the aliens; 1t should
be willing to assume the financial re-
sponsibility."
The burden of proof that there were
no symptoms of insanity before COM
ing to this country is now upon the
state which is rarely in a position to
get at the facts, he added.
1t is urged therefore that the Leg
islature adopt concurrent resolutions
calling upon Congress to change the
limit to five years and to place the
burden of proof upon the insane mans
relatives or friends.
Further recommendations made have
in view:
Transferring from the state to the
national government the cost OF main
tanning the alien insane.
. A more thorough supervision of the
mental condition of all immigrants.
The compelling of transportation
companies to report on the mental con-
dition of all immigrants, and making 1t
misdemeanor for them to refuse to
provide passage for any allen desiring
to return to his pative country from
a state institution upon certificate that
he is able to travel alone. If unable
to so travel, the national government
to provide competent man to ae-
company him.

Discuss Plans for !.
New Haven Shearing.

Washington, Feb. 2.--Plans for the sep
aration of the New York. New Haven &
Hartford Railroad and it's subsidiary
transportation lines was discussed today
at a conference between T. w. Gregory
and Jesse c.. Adkins, attorneys for the
department of justice, and Moorfield Sto-
rey and Walker Hines, counsel for the
road ~
Although the proposals of the two New
Haven lawyers were listened to carefully
the department made 1t plait, 1t expects
the New Haven to bestir itself and bring
about its promised reorganization in a
short time as possible. Attorney General
McReynolds did not figure in the discus
sion, but it is said he feels that it is
about time that the road brought it's
plans to light.
1t was understood tonight that the con-
ference was largely devoted to the ques-
ton of the disposition of the Boston 4
Maine stock held by the New Haven. II
is probable that the first suggestion OF
the road, that this stock be placed In
the hands of trustees, the road run by
them and the stock gradually disposed of.
will be accomplished. While Mr.. Greg
ory and Mr.. Adkins insisted upon more
speed, it was pointed out that the de-
partment did not intend to drive the New
Haven Immediately into the market with
securities which 1t might find difiicult to
get rid of.
The plan for trusteeship for Boston
& Maine may be followed after the dis
position of the trolleys and outside steam
ship lines is taken up. The retention OF
the so-called Sound lines by the New
Haven was left temporarily. at least. to
the Interstate Commerce Commission by
the recent agreement.
