The 100 streetcar men of Oakland Ala-

the Realty Syndicate were greatly sur
prised to learn that on December l there

Merritt dredging matter his resignation was
generally thought to mean that ne "oulu

he has inaugurated in the syndicate syS-
rem had been carried out. 1t was an
nouuced to-day that Mr.. Bishop would re-
tire on the first of next month
No intimation has yet been given by
hoard of directors as TO who will succeed
Mr.. Bishop but it is understood that the
choice is between Assistant Manager III
fany, Superintendent Potter and Secre-
1arv sam TAYLOR while eX-Chief OF Ponce
Charles E Lloyd is also mentioned.
The change of general managers is an
event of great interest to the thousands OF
people who daily travel over the syndl-
Gates lines, as it may mean that there
will he no more Accent fares. 1t is said
that one of the reasons why a change
will be made is that there is desire on
the part of the directors TO recall lnat
system of transfers which permits pas
Senger to ride from the entlre edS ~

the entire system has been broken up,
and the various branches now need
great deal of attention. There has been
much complaint of cars not running fire.

and Of there being no connections at

the many changes being made IN the
routes and the Encouragement of fran
chises and they demand close attention TO
bring them up to point of perfection.
When the syndicate acquired the various
lines none of them were paying and Gen
eral Manager Bishop started in to put
affairs on an economical basis and his plan
is very comprehensive. He has II pretty
well laid out now, but, of course, 1t is not
an agreeable task, for the public is bound
to kick. Mr.. Bishop realizes that he can
not give the necessary time to II, SO ne
has resigned.
