SING SING NOT TO LOSE
OSBORNE, RUhOR SAYS
Ex-Warden Will Get Old Job
When Case Against Him Ends.

Albany, y. Y, March 2O.--Speculation
on the future Of Thomas Mott Osborne,
since the threatened collapse Of the
charges preferred against him at
White Plains, has been partially set
at rest by unofficial declarations, IN
official circles. that should the misman-
agement Indictment be dismissed or
otherwise disposed Of in his favor he
will be returned 10 full charge at Sing
Sing. This, it is said, is in accord with
the understanding entered into when he
asked a leave of absence following his
indictment.
It is said Dean George s. Kirchwey
took the post Of warden at Sing Sing
with the understanding that he should
step aside in favor Of Mr.. Osborne as
soon as the charge against him had
been disposed of by acquittal or dis
missal. Governor Whitman, II Is re-
ported. has made this clear to James
u. Carter. his nominee for the place
made vacant by John b. Riley's re-
moval
There is n difference OF opinion here
between OsbOrne's friends and those
who have opposed him as TO has exact
status His friends insist he received
what he asked from Governor Whit
man. a leave Of absence; that he has
never resigned or been removed; that
his bond as warden is still in full
force and effect, and that since the
appointment Of Dr.. Kirchwey Sing sing
has had two wardens, one active and
the other on leave.

SPRING IS HERE!
SNOW HEADS BILL
Weather Man Thinks March Will
Continue Stormy.

Miserable March burs. into spring
at 5:39 yesterday afternoon. with the
weather man threatening that the very
first day would bring snow, or pos
sibly rain If the mercury warmed up
a bit.
March, so far, has been a failure all
around. Coming on the heels OF
sogCy, chilly. grippy February, that
was three degrees colder on the daily
average. 80 per cent snowier, 80 per
cent windier and 20 per cent cloudier
than the normal February, the windy
month had brilliant opportunity TO
redeem its none 200 good reputation.
II fell fiat
Thereupon IL started out to do its
worst and break few records. in
which u came much nearer success,
but also failed.
Oldtimers are right when they say
this has been the worst March IN
generation. March temperature so
ia has averaged 26.S degrees above
zero. which is l degree below the pre-
ceding. unusually low-tempered Feb
ruary, s6 degrees below the mean
temperature for January. 1916; 10 de-
grees below March. 1915. and p de-
grees below the lowest March in the
history Of the Weather Bureau.
March. If 10 runs true 20 form the
rest Of the month, will be the coolest
March iu the last thirty-one years. and
q will be surpassed in its dive for the
low record by only two Marches in the
history OF the Weather Bureau, 1855
and 1872
Mean temperature for every day in
March So far this year has been below
the freezing point excepting one, the
18th. and yet, on its coolest day,
March Is. II lacked six degrees OF
reaching the lowest March temperature.
which was degrees above on March
,. 1872.
Precipitation in March this year ha7
already surpassed the March average
for the entire month, but it will have
20 more than double its efforts II t
makes a record along this line
