Refused to Resign
The last of the peace conferences in
the mayors office took place yesterday
when Fire Commissioner William p
/ Delany and Civil Service Commissioners
Matthew Brady politely informed the
mayor they were not resigning in re-
sponse to his polite intimation that
they had better.
The mayor said that the charter
placed heavy responsibilities on his
shoulders and to carry out his duties
he wanted men of his own choice on
| the commissions" said Brady when
asked about the Interview Il told the
mayor l knew of no moral or legal
ground why / should resign and | am
not resigning at present.
''As for fighting removal / have moth
| ing to say as to that. You see, it is
up to the mayor to declare war If he
wants to and time enough for us to
begin when he has.
Delany had the same pleasant inter-
view with the same inconsequential re-
suit. His departure marked the close
of the cabinet meeting in sections, cne
election commission being for the time
out of it, and the playground board

School Director Payot stated there
was no truth in the story published in
an afternoon paper that he had em-
ployed Hiram w Johnson or any other
attorney to fight against his removal

expected last night.
The letter of dismissal sent to the
commissioners read as follows:
You are hereby notified that /
have this day removed you from the
Office of police commissioner of the
city and county of San Francisco
for the reasons stated in my com
munication this day transmitted by
me to the board of supervisors of
this city and county
The cause stated in the mayors let
ter to the board of supervisors as vio-
lation OF the provisions of the charter
OF the city and county. The specific vio-
ation assigned was the unlawful in
creasing of salaries of the employees of
the police commission A year ago the
salary of the secretary of the board was
raised, as were the salaries of the tele-

ignation of the chief the commission

ment to this effect being made by him
last night.
My views he said, regarding the
present commissioners and members of
boards in the city are generally well
understood Ny intention is to replace
these men with others who, in my
opinion. are better fitted for the posi-
tions and this will do in the near
future.
Just how long it win be before l
take steps similar to those of today L
can not say at present-but they will
be taken soon.
I'm my communication to the board
of supervisors l gave only one reas son
for the dismissal of the police commits
sioners. This was that they .-ad flag
rantlv violated the provisions of the
city charter in raising the salary of
the secretary OF the board of police
commissioners. The charter specifically
outlines the salary TO be paid 10 the
secretary. and the memberst of the
board had no right TO disregard the

Though I gave but one reason, it
does not mean there were not others.
The fact is I know Of several others
equally as valid as the one l mentioned
and every one of which would have
been sufficient to call for their resig-
nations. ] did not brin gthese up be-
cause there was no necessity to do so.
As Commissioners Fred G. Sanborn
and Joseph Leggett appeared at the
door of the commission shortly before
o'clock last night they were met by
Policeman Pete Tanning and served
with a notice of their removal.
A. d. Cutler did not put in an ap-
pearance. but his seat was declared
vacant by TWO of the newly appointed
commissioners and successor given
his seat.

The dismissal of the commi ssioners
attracted little attention. probably be-
cause there had been no prior an
nouncement Pete Tanning, who guards
the mayors office, escorted the three
new commissioners to the rooms of the
police commission. They retired into
the executive rooms and Tanning
waited at the door for the members of

seconds OF each other. AS they en-
