NEW-YoHk. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 5, FOURTEEN HUES S. lIPPLE RESIGNS UNDER Ft Forest. Fish and Game Commissioner Severely Criticised by Governor's Investigator. SPECIAL COUNSEL ALSO OUT Chief Attorney for Department, John K.

Ward. Whose Work Was Condemned, Said To Be Ready to Retire. Alt-am, i i Governor has received nnri accepted the resignation of James S. Whippie. of Salamanca, as Forest.

Fish and Game Commissioner. Frank 1.. Bell, of Glens Falls, has tendered his resignation as special counsel, and It is understood that John K. Ward will retire as chief counsel of the department. Before the Governor retires from office, on Thursday or Friday, he will appoint a successor to Mr.

Wbipple, who in turn will select new counsel and assistants and generally reorganize the department. The changes are the result of a report mad" to Governor Hughes to-day by Commissioners Roger P. Clark and H. Austin, vho recently concluded an investigation of the department. The salary of the State Forest.

Fish and ijame Commissioner is per annum, and that of Special Counsel Bell was (7,500, while Mr. Ward received Mr. Whipple's Letter. Mr. hippie was first appointed commissioner by the late Governor Frank W.

Higgins in 1905, and was rcappointed by Governor Hughes. His term would have expired on April 11, 191-. Mr. Whipple in resigning wrote to Governor Hughes, in part, as follows: This is not the time to discuss either the facts or the conclusions set up in the report, but I do most emphatically deny the truth of the facts stated and disagree fro mthe conclusions reached. I recognize, however, that aa a result of this report my usefulness to the state In this department has been destroyed I have held this position for six years I was not an applicant for the position.

I have come to appreciate the great importance of the work of this department to the people of the state. The field covered is large that much of it must be Intrusted to subordinates. That a. critical examination covering the six years of my administration would disclose errors of judgment and mistakes made, should be expected. I will only say that ray conscience acquits me of any intentional neglect or derelict of duty.

It is a thousand times more important that this great work should go on and that II should not become a subject of political contention than that I should retain the office. theye reasons, to you of any enabsrrassment and without solicitation on the parr of any one I respectfully tender my resignation. Governor Hughes, -in response to letter of resignation, wrote Mr. "Whipple as follows: It is Impossible for me adequately to express the regret that I feel at the conditions which the investigation of your department has shown to exist. Tour work had been strongly commended to me by those who are interested in the protection of the forests and in the conservation of the states interest in these important resources.

You should have full credit with respect to those matters in which there has been increased efficiency, and I desire to believe, and I accept your statement, that you have not been guilty of wrong Intention. But the conditions which have been shown to exist cannot be ignored and must be immediately rectified. Tour resignation is accepted and under the statute took effect when it was received and filed in this office. Speaker James W. Wadsworth, who is the present chairman of the state Forest Purchasing Board, the membership changing each two years with the election of new state officials, and who has been in consultation with Governor Hughe? for several days regarding the criticisms contained in the report, has assured Governor Hughes by letter that the system governing the purchase of Adirondack lands and the searching of titles will be perfected and strengthened, in order that all criticisms may be met Speaker Wadsworth points out that the state has purchased 850.000 acres in the Adirondacks at an average cost of 54 42 an acre.

and says that this land is worth far more than has been paid for it. WHIPPLE AND WARD SCORED Report to Governor Severely Condemns Them. The report of Rotter P. Ciark and H. Austin on their investigation of the management and affairs of the State Forest.

This document, the result of a searching inquiry Into every phase of the forestry situation and the work of Commissioner Whipple and hi? Stall, showed that certain phases of the department's work were In very bad shape. The Governor's commissioners condemn severely the lepal department, under John K.

Ward. The records of department were practically worthless, the Isshiniirs found. Legal which should have rushed through were allowed to drag along ho that timber thieves wen permitted to take shelter behind the statute of limitations. Commissioner Whipple. the report showed, was rather Involved In financial transactions with George N.

Ostrander. a lawyer an.i real estate man who was selling large of Adirondack land to the state.
