RESIGNATION HABIT
REACHES REDLANDS
Mayor of That City May Give Up
Office Because of Criticism
on City Lighting
Matter

REDLANDS, March 19.-Rumors
were current here last night that II. +.
d. Kingsbury, who has been president
of the boar dof city trustees and given
the complimentary title of mayor, in
tends resigning from office.
When interviewed MIR. Kingsbury
said he knew nothing of the matter, yet
il has been traced down to friends
whom the mayor told himself. His rea-
sons have been several, probably the
latest one being the controversy over
the lighting of the city, for which he
was severely criticised.
He feels that his private interests
need more of his attention, and rumor
says there has been considerable fric-
ton on the board of trustees. If he adj
heres to the action as given out by his
friends he will at once sever his con-
nection with the board of trustees.
At an executive meeting of the trus-
tees the resignation of Peter Arth,
which was handed in few months
ago but which was withheld until the
matter OF city lighting was settled, was
accepted, and John Gore elected to I'LL
the vacancy. Mr.. Gore is prominent
citizen and has lived in California for
the past seventeen years.

SCIENTIST IS SHOCKED BY
ENCOUNTERING LIVE WIRES
Professor from Chicago, While Work.
ing at Carnegie Solar obserVa-
tory, Is Injured

PASADENA, March 19.-Working
alone in the laboratory attached to the
Carnegie Solar observatory workshop,
at the corner of Santa Barbara street
and Lake avenue, DR.. Headley Gordon
Gale, a University of Chicago scientist,
in some manner came in contact with
live wires from the transformer in the
building and was hurled to the floor.
Just how or when the accident hap
pened it is impossible to say, as DR..
Gale has not sufficiently recovered to
give details.
He was found by Prof. George r..
Hale. who entered the workroom short
ly after / o'clock, and the victim was
hurried to the Pasadena hospital, where
it was found he had sustained rather
severe burns about the hips.
He was unconscious when found, ana
it is believed he accidentally backed
against the wires and received the
shock which caused his injuries. There
is no doubt but that he will recover.
DR.. Gale is we'll known through his
text books on physics and also because
of his prowess on the football field as a
student in the University of Chicago
ten years ago. He came to Pasadena
for a few months work of an expert
mental nature.

PRINCIPLE FORCES
SECRETARY TO QUIT
STORMY TIMES THREATENED
AT SAN PEDRO
Chamber of Commerce May Take Up
Matter of Consolidation Against
the Wishes of Some
Members

SAN PEDRO, March 19.-Choosing
to resign His position as secretary of
the San Pedro chamber of commerce
rather than meet the opposition of the
saloon men and Observation-Disclosures
w. f. Bickenbach rendered his resig-
nation to the executive committee at
the regular weekly session this after
noon.
This action by the secretary, who
has served so faithfully, fell like a
bombshell, and both factions in the
chamber urged him to reconsider his
action, but to no purpose, and his re-
signation was finally accepted with the
thanks of the chamber for his efficient
service. Charles j. Adair was elected
to fill the vacancy, which will only be
for one week, as next Friday will be
the semi-annual meeting of the entire
chamber, at which time a new execu-
tive committee will be elected.
The consolidation question has caused
a breach in the chamber of commerce
which will be hard to heal, owing to
the attitude assumed by those who
are opposed to any kind of union
with Los Angeles. After the exclusion
election was called here the executive
committee by unanimous vote passed
a resolution asking that consolida-
ton law be enacted by the legislature,
but later through the influence of
Senator Savage and the interests
here, another resolution was railroaded
through, approving Savage's two-thirds
vote scheme. BY subsequent resolution
all political questions were debarred
and former action on political ques-
tons nullified.
But lately the anti-cOnsolidation Gle
ment has been very active. New menu
bers known to be against the move
ment have been elected, and every in
dication points to an attempt next Fri
day TO elect a saloon and corporation
bunch as the executive committee in
an endeavor to influence the people
against consolidation with Los An
geles.
Edward Mahar, manager for the
Bannings, attended the session today.
He is, a member of the board. This is
the third time Mr.. Mahar has attended
a meeting since his election six months
ago, one of the preceding meetings at
which he was present being the day
the two-thirds vote scheme of Savage
was railroaded through. The meeting
next Friday promises to be stormy if
the political scheme is undertaken.
