HARItISBTTRG STAR-INDEPENDENT, WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 3, 1915 SERVICE BOARD HIAKE-UP RESTS WITH TBE GOVERNOR Confirmation of Gaither, Particularly, Is Reported to Depend on Dr. Brumbaugh's Wishes—Conference Saturday to Decide 'Senators who have takeu the pains to make inquiries say that the con firmation of some of Governor Tener's appointments to the Public Service Commissiou now rests with Brumbaugh, and that if he says the word the Senate Committee on Execu tive Nominations will at once report out the nam.'s of at least three of the Commissioners for confirmation, these three being Commissioners Pennypack er, Brecht and Gaither. On the confirmation of Pennypack er and Brecht there seems to be no question, but on tnat of Gaither it seems, from what can be learned, that the committee is almost equally divid ed, Senators Crow, Sproul and Catliu favoring (Jailher, with Senators lie- Nichol, Kline and Snyder opposing him, leaving the balance of power with Sen ator Yare, who has said that he will be guided by Governor Brumbaugh's wishes in the matter. If the Governor desires Gaither to be confirmed, Senator Vare will vote for Gaither, and, if not, he will vote against him. Commissioner Wallace is said to have sent in his resignation to Governor Brumbaugh, which leaves Commission ers Wright, Johnson and Tone as the trio on whom the committee is unde cided. Commissioner Wright has oppo sition that is not apparent, and it is said that there also is opposition to Commissioner Johnson because of his having made public a decision of the Commissiou to the railroad companies in the passenger rate case before the announcement, was made to the com plainants. Commissioner Tone is sup posed to have opposition Because of his former connection with the streot rail way companies of Pittsburgh. As yet nothing definite has been de termined and the matter, it is rumored, will be brought to head at a confer ence to be held in Philadelphia on Sat urday. OBERLIN Special Correspondence.
