TAFT REMOVES PINCHoT.
Chief of Forestry Bureau Dismissed
For INSTRUMENTATION.

Washington, D. president Taft
dismissed Clifford Pinchot, Chief Of
the Forestry Bureau, and the fight
between the Roosevelt radicals and
the conservative wing of the Repub-
lican party is on in earnest. The
Presidents action came after a Cab
met session that lasted practically all
day. When it broke up, just before
dinner time in the evening, there was
issued at the White House a copy of
a letter sent by the President to Mr..
Pinchot. In this letter, after sum-
ming up the acts of the forester that
led him to take such action, Mr. Taft
said:
by your conduct you have de-
stroyed your usefulness as a helpful
subordinate of the Government, and
it therefore becomes my duty to di-
rect the Secretary of Agriculture to
remove you from your Office as For
ester"
Secretary Wilson was swift in car
rying out the decision of the Presi-
dent. He addressed to Mr.. Pinchot,
to Overton w. Price, Associate For
roster, and Albert G.. Shaw, assistant
law officer of the Forestery Bureau,
letters substantially indentical.

SHORTAGE OF ROOMS FOR
VISITORS AT LONG BEACH
Despite Many New Hotels Town
Cannot Accommodate Crowds

LONG BEACH, July 30.-despite the
fact that many new hotels and apart
ment houses have been added this year
to the large number of such structures
already on hand, the town is simply
overflowing with tourists. It has been
impossible for new comers to get ac-
commodations at the ocean front hotels
for the past two days, and many get
discouraged and leave town without
continuing their search a few blocks
farther out.
The Hotel Virginia was entirely re-
served today and there will be no
vacant rooms for several days. The
coming of the championship tennis
tournament at this season has added
to the crowded condition at the hotel
A woman proprietor of a grocery
store today took pity on a woman who
failed to secure lodgings and finally
agreed to give her a room in her own
home. While they were on their way
to the house two other such parties
were met, and upon their earnest solicit
tation the woman consented to give
them rooms also, turning her home into
a lodging house.
Hearing that people had left town
because of inability to secure places to
sleep, the chamber of commerce today
issued an appeal to people to notify
the office of any vacant rooms, suites
or houses which may be rented.

PASSES ANTI-PICKETING
ORDINANCE UNANIMOUSLY

LONG BEACH, July 30.-Last night
when the city council passed the anti
picketing ordinance on its third read
ing there developed an apparent will
ingness on the part of the members of
the councilmanic body to come togeth-
er as individuals and listen to both
sides in an effort to arbitrate the strike
at the Craig shipyard. q
Attorneys Job Hartman and Spring
of Los Angeles spoke in behalf of the
union men, urging that the ordinance
be voted down. Attorneys Earl Rogers
and w. II. Dehm spoke in favor of
the ordinance. A large lobby of union
men and others filled the council
chamber. At ~times the debate be-
tween the attorneys waxed warm. The
vote was unanimous for the ordinance
despite the fact that a long petition
was presented signed by citizens pro-
testing against it.
The ordinance forbids picketing in
the vicinity of the Craig plant" The
city attorney said this meant within
two or three blocks of the plant"
