The Rev. J. A. b. Wilson, formerly OF
this state, Is seeking notortety In his new
station at Los Angeles. Cal He Is lead
ing crusade against Chief of Police Glass
and incidentally getting his name consid-
erably in the papers. with the result that
his past record is being searched. The
police have retaliated by drawing forth all
the skeletons in the Wilson closet and the
people OF Los Angeles are enjoying the
struggle.
1t appears that soon after the arrival OF
Mr.. Wilson in California he organized the
ministers in an association similar to the
Parkhurst Society OF New York and sew
eral weeks ago the Rev. Mr.. Wilson was
appointed, as chairman Of a committee, to
interview Chief OF Police Glass That off,
clal refused to hear the committee and ac-
cording to published reports the chief used
some very forcible language against the
chairman Of the committee. This started
the affair The police had quietly gathered
Mr. Wilson'S record and the next day the
papers devoted columns of space.
According to the Los Angeles Times the
facts gathered against the minister is that
for some time he has been trying to induce
fight against the chief Of police. but he
was not entirely successful in this venture.
The Times claims that in the East Mr..
Wilson conducted himself in such a man
ner that the churches in which he ofciated
as pastor were willing to part with his
services.

prominent member of Eighteenth
Street NJ. T.. Church. New York city, Of
which the Rev. Mr.. Wilson was formerly
pastor, is quoted in the Times as saying
tat many members Of the church had left
because OF their dissatisfaction with Mr..
Wilson's notoriety seeking methods. The
trustees of the church passed resolutions
to the effect that It would be for the best
interests OF the church II he should go
away. Eventually he accepted Il call at
Los Angeles.
In February. 1895, he sought notorIcty by
calling the Charity Organization Of New
York fraud, and challenging the seerc-
tary Of the organization to a debate in a
public hall which was declined. Later he
figured in police affairs in New York Stree
