.BALL|NGER'S REMOVAL
DECLARED INEVITABLE
Report States the Resignation of
Secretary Will Be Cabinets
First Development

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-That Rich
ard A. Ballinger's resignation as secre-
tary of the interior will follow 1mme-
diately on the meeting of the cabinet,
September 26, to attend which he is
now en- route from Seattle, depends on
the attitude of his cabinet associates,
is strenuously denied by the secretary
and his friends.
Mr.. Ballinger is coming to Washing
ton. his friends here insist, wholly un-
conscious of any act on his part. either
of commission or omission, for which
he should be condemned! If his col
leagues concur in the view at present
attributed to Mr. Taft, that the ac-
cused secretary shall be sustained as
an innocent and prosecuted man, he
will retain his position; If they fail so
to back him up, he will resign forth
with.
At the first meeting, Monday, of the
cabinet after the summer recess, Sec
retary of War Dickinson, the Demo-
cratic member, will not have returned
from the Philippines. and thereby VIII
be saved the embarrassment of par
ticipating in what is regarded largely
as a problem of Republican policy. The
meeting is expected to last three days.
Rumors have been constant and de-
cidedly definite here during the last
few days to the effect that Mr.. Bal
linger's resignation would be one OF
the first developments of the cabinet
meeting, but his friends, including his
associates in the interior department,
have refused to believe that he would
retire under fire." and have pointed to
the recent statement attributed to him
that he would resign only at the
special request of the president.

WHOOPING COUGH CLAIMS
2 VICTIMS IN 2 DAYS

NEVADA CITY, Cal, Sept. 23.-The
physicians of this city are very much
excited over the second death from
whooping cough in two days. There is
what might be termed an epidemic of
the disease among the children. There
has been no effort made to prevent
the disease, and children are attend
ing the public school who have been
afflicted for weeks.
The physicians state that unless
some measures are taken at once 1t
may mean the death of several more
children, and they attribute the deaths
that have already occurred to the
carelessness of parents and teachers
in allowing the children to attend
school while afflicted.

POWER QUESTION
MAY START FIGHT.
Mayor Discusses Disposition OF
Electricity on Completion
of the Aqueduct
SAYS CITIZENS EYES OPENED
Arrange Definite Program to Fur
ther Debate Disposal of
Surplus Water
'AYS CITIZENS EYES OPENED

There is in prospect, in the opinion
of Mayor Alexander, a hot controversy
when the public discussion regarding
the distribution of water from the
aqueduct is closed, and the question of
the disposition Of electricity to be
generated in connection with the aque-
duct is taken up. In this connection
the mayor said yesterday:
81 was very much pleased at the at
tendance last night and the interest
taken in the matter by the public. The
discussion Of the water distribution will
probably go along smoothly. But just
wait until we get to the power situa-
tion.
Il am confident the power companies
intend to make us some such PROPOSE
tion as using what power we need to
light the streets and public buildings
and rent the rest of it to them.
Wouldn't that be just like them,
though? But Los Angeles citizens have
their eyes open anA are not likely to
listen to anything of the kind"
definite program has been arranged
for the meeting to be held Monday
night to further discuss the question
of distributing the surplus water of
tiAS e11dSNHSb' -AAN
wants 1t understood that the discussion
Monday night will be limited to the
disposal of the water, and that the
question of power will not be permitted
to enter the debate.
The committee on program, composed
of President Lusk, Councilman Whiffen
and Mayor Alexander, yesterday sent
letters to ]. A. Anderson, Walter ].
Trask, Leslie r. Hewitt, ]. B. Lip
pincott and Herbert Burdett, asking
them to discuss various phases Of the
matter. Messrs. Anderson, Trask and
Hewitt will confine themselves to the
legal phases of the water distribution
Mr.. Lippincott, who is assistant chief
engineer of the aqueduct, will discuss
engineering features, and Mr.. Burdett,
who is secretary of the Los Angeles
Realty board, viii talk about the mat
ter in a general way.
