Gov. Miller considers the creation Of
State central purchasing board one Of
the most important OF the recommen-
dations he mado to the Legislature in
his annual message. lie emphasized II
to-day in an address to the secretaries
OF chambers OF commerce of the State,
saying the State spends more than
s20oOo.0O in the purchase of supplies for
departments and institutions. which Is
done through sixty or seventy different
agencies.
He declared millions OF dollars could
be saved il all the buying were done
through one central purchasing board.
He said that bills establishing such a
plan soon would be introduced in the
Legislature.
THE bills do not contemplate any
radical change he said. 'I mean by
radical. sudden. This must, of course,
be matter of evolution and these func-
tions must be taken over gradually
without disturbance of the existing sit
ua.ion."
The secretaries OF the chambers of
commerce asked the Governor for sug-
gestions on how their organizations
could support his program for the State
at large and the Governor expressed his
sincere appreciation of their interest.
IT have been charged sometimes with
being oblivious\to public opinion" he
said. Il am not. No public official who
Is normal person can be oblivious. I
do not want to be misunderstood, how
ever, In what l say. / do not think that
any administration can be successful IL
the head of it is devotng his attention
to discovering what may be popular for
the moment. l think you sometimes
have to do things that for the moment
are unpopular. but nothing permanently
succeeds unless 1t Is so sound that ulti-
mately it has the support of public opin-
ion, because, of course. in this country
the majority has the final say, and
therefore the very great Importance of
organizations like yours is to give in

ernment and then to give expression 10

Special Dispatch to THE NEW York HERALD.

Albany. Jan. 13.
Gov. Miller sent a letter to-day to
Murray Hubert. President OF the Board
OF Aldermen of New York, reiterating
the statement in his port development
message that Mr.. Hubert, as a member
OF the bi-State commission signed the
report recommending the port author
ity compact between New York and New
Jersey.
The letter was in answer to one from
Mr.. Hubert. protesting that the Gov
ernor's statement was untrue and unfai-
to him, on the ground that he had re-
served objections to the compact ard
had agreed to it only in so far as It
recommended comprehensive plan.
The Governors letter indicated the
belief that the former Dock Commits
sioner had switched his position since
his election as President of the Board
OF Aldermen, and called attention to the
commissions report saying it empha-

ments in the summary, signed by you."
the Governor wrote. showing that the
establishment of a port district and the
creation OF port authority, with ade-
quate power, were considered essential"
L am sure you will agree with me,
upon reflection" the Governor added,
that the foregoing quotations alone are
quite sufficient to justify the statement
in my message of which you complain.
II recall the conference with you at
Syracuse, to which you refer. and I re-
call very distinctly that your objection
to the compact was that it did not give
the port authority adequate power. You
particularly objected to article 16, which
requires the affirmative vote of at least
two members from each State, whereas
you insisted, and ] think rightly, that a
majority vote of the commission should
be sufficient to decide. and that 1t
should not be made possible for a dead
lock to be created by the failure to Sc
cure the necessary two votes from each
State"

FOUR MINERS BURIED
IN 20 ACRE CAVE-IN
Several Others Near Death in
Pennsylpania Disoster.

SCRANTON. Pa. Jan. 13.-Four men
were entombed. three injured and sew
oral others had narrow escapes from
death to-day when twenty acres of land
dropped in mine-cave of gigantic pro-
portions in the National Mine of the
Glen Alden Coal Company.
Seventy-f1ve men attacked the mass
of debris. coal, rock and earth from
three different angles but did not find
any trace Of the missing men.
With the exception of the four en-
tombed miners all other employees in
the affected area have been accounted
for by company officials.
President Inglis of the mine company
attributed the cave-in or squeeze" to
the small pillars which had been left
standing. by another company which
formerly operated the mine and which
had started to disintegrate by reason OF
the vast weight they supported.
The squeeze was accompanied by a
roar and rumbling that could be heard
great distance. Throughout the day
there was further evidence of settling.
Fissures could be seen. Some extend
for several blocks along Birney avenue,
while others bisect lots and cross streets.
Only In a few instances was there any
evidence Of great property damage, and
that consisted largely OF cracks in cellar
walls, doors jammed and fallen plaster.
Numerous water and gas pipes were
pulled apart as the surface dropped.
Mayor John Durkan to-day sent let
ter to President Inglis of the coal COM
pany asking for conference to consider
the mine cave and steps that could be
taken TO prevent further damage.
The shaft of the National mine Is in
the city Of Scranton. close TO the south
boundary line. Most of the territory
damaged by the cave-in Is in Minooka,
in the township of Lackawanna.
