Gov Russell Removes Prisons Superintendent Greene
Governor Russell removed William A. Greene from the state prisons office after Greene refused to resign. Russell proposes abolishing the superintendent of prisons, arguing the post is obsolete and expensive and that duties now belong to the prison commissioners or run by the boards. A temporary replacement from the Board of Prison Commissioners was named pending legislative action.

Sayles Nomination Delayed by Council Clash Over Governor’s Power
Governor Russell clashes with the Executive Council as eight Republicans align with the Rice collar to delay confirmations. Councillor Leeson urges swift action on Irving B. Sayles for Savings Bank commissioner and Hosea Kingman for metropolitan sewerage, citing inquiries and public trust. Local testimonies praise Sayles’ character but critics warn against hurried approval. The council votes to form a committee to review Sayles, while Russell opposes ceding control over committee appointments.
