POLICE IN QUARREL
OVER REWARD OF $50
San Diego Officer Tries to Intercept
San Bernardino Man with
Prisoner Wanted by
Government

SAN BERNARDINO, May 20. -
Trouble is brewing between the police
departments of this city and San Diego
as the result of an effort made by
one of the local officers to secure $50
reward offered by the government for
the return of a deserter by the name
of Hanna, who was arrested in this
city several days ago upon advice from
San Diego that he was wanted on a
charge of forgery. Last night Officer
Bigger, upon instructions from the gov
eminent, started with Hanna to San
Diego to turn him over at the fort.
Shortly after his departure an Of
ficer from the San Diego department
arrived to take Hanna and his partner,
who is also wanted as a witness in
the case, and on learning that one of
the men was already on his way to the
Bay City to be turned over to the
government wired his brother officers
to intercept Bigger and take charge
of the prisoner before he could claim
the reward. Friends of the local Of
ficer learning of the San Diego mans
plan telegraphed Bigger to take his
prisoner and leave the train before
reaching San Diego and drive to the
fort.
officer Bigger left the train at Old
Town and, securing an automobile,
took his prisoner to the fort evading
the San Diego police. He secured the
$50 reward.

FIVE MEMBERS REFUSE
SECOND TERM ON BOARD
Trade Organization viii Be Asked to
Place Itself on Record on
Water Matter

PASADENA, May 20,-Five out of
the seven mmbers of the existing
board of directors of the Pasadena
board of trade will probably refuse to
accept reelection at the hands Of their
fellows at the annual election which Is
set for Monday May "a. Postmaster j.
w. Wood, Frank V. Rider, ], o. Mecca
Inent, Dr. G. ]. Tracy and W. L. Green
are the men whom it is believed will
not again permit their names to go be-
fore the board. Among the men whose
names have been suggested to fill the
vacancies are those of Dr. Rudolph
Schiffman, Harry Geohegan, DR.. F. c.
f. Madison. George F. Kernaghan,
William 7. Knight, f. T. Off and Frank
Long.
In addition to the election the menu
bers of the board of trade will probably
be asked to place themselves on record
regarding the attitude they wish the
board to adopt in the water question.
At the time of the last bond election, in
which the question of bonding the city
for the purchase of the equipments of
the different companies was defeated,
the board took no definite stand
until late in the campaign 1t is pos
sible that at another election it might
be more active in support of the pur-
chase of the water companies fran
chises.

NOTES FROM EEDLANDs

REDLANDS, May 2O.-At a meeting
of the city trustees yesterday one of
the board introduced evidence in re-
gard to the decrease in the weight of a
loaf of bread. The amount taken from
the loaf would be sufficient to make
three loaves cost now what four loaves
have i'm the past. The trustees figured
out that the bakery had done this to
secure a better price, which would be
better than raising the price of the
loaves. The city attorney was asked
to investigate the law in regard to the
matter and to write to Los Angeles
authorities to find out the provisions
of the ordinance passed there recently.
The trustees rescinded the action of
the last meeting in ordering a bond
election of $4,000 for the purchase of
a site and erection of q city hall.

SAN PEDRO, May 2O.-Although the
workers for consolidation with Los
Angeles are apparently resting on
their oars" at this time the issue will
move forward with renewed life as
soon as the Los Angeles committee
finishes it's reports and the petitions
for the election are put out for sigma
lures.
The campaign here. which really
started last November when the petit
tions for the exclusion election" were
circulated has been a hot one, and
the only apparent reason for. the quiet
ude which is evident during the past
few days is that the opposition, which
at first was so strong, has either been
converted to the inevitable or is wait
ing for new developments.
As far as the board of trade and its
consolidation committees are con-
cerned the sentiment seems to be that
it is now up to Los Angeles to move
Everything has been done, they say
to show Los Angeles that San Pedro
voters will be ready to join the greater
city as soon as an election can be
called, providing that the assurances
are given by the committee of htteen
and the civic bodies of Los Angeles that
steps will be taken Immediately after
consolidation looking toward the i'm
provement of the outer harbor with
a basis of operation established on the
146 acres, if possible, and connecting
highway leading to the business dis
trict of the greater city.
Want Free Ferry
The people here believe that these
demands are reasonable and that the
resolutions recently passed by the COM
mittee of fifteen mean that the Los
Angeles committee will recommend
these things.
A few other things have been adj
vanced by the people mere. One is
free ferry across the channel. Many
believe that the 10 cents for the round
trip rate is unreasonable for the 1000
foot haul, even if it is over water.
The people also desire some light
from Los Angeles on the question of
the method of government after the
union is effected and San Pedro be-
comes a part of one of the wards of
the greater city. They desire to know
what will be the policy of the city in
the matter of police, fire protection and
caring for the streets and other de-
tails which will have to be worked out
some time and they think the outline
should be submitted before the vote is
taken on the issue.
An early election is asked for by all
the leaders here, who are unanimous
in wanting the full report of the con-
solidation committee made public be-
fore the petitions are circulated.
