Tho Crie RESIGNATION

Rockland Courier Gazette The
evening papers Thursday announced
that Alton E. Farnsworth of BROOKLYN
had been nominated for commissioner
of Sea and Shore Fisheries, to Sue
coed Horatio D. erie, resigned.
That Mr.. erie had retired from the
commission was news to almost
everybody in this city. This paper
recently announced the resignation of
Harry L. Sanborn as director of Sea
and Shore Fisheries, but there never
has been any intimation that Mr.
erie was also to leave the States
service. He is the present chairman
of the commission. and has devoted a
great deal of painstaking and ex-
perienced work to the Office. What
ever reasons may have impelled his
resignation he is keeping carefully to
himself, for he declined yesterday to
make any statement when inter-
viewed by the Courier Gazette re-
porter, and he had no statement to
make as to his future plans.
Mr.. Farnsworth preceded Hon
Elmer S. Bird as the executive coun-
cilor from this district. and is said to
have the best of qualifications for the
position. He is well known in this
city as business man of large inter-
ests, and most affable.
