This morning, he stated he would
defend the man that the decision fa-

In case the chiefs of police are not
willing to abide by the decision which
will be handed down by Mr.. Hogan,
Mayor-elect c. ID. Walters has a plan
of testing the law, allowing the out
going chief to do the testing. The
new mayor would have the newly ap-
pointed chief sworn in and, if they
so desired, let both the old and the
new chief serve for the first month.
At the expiration of that period, the
salary would be paid to the chief fa-
vored by the administration Such
action would make 1t necessary for
the old chief to sue for his salary If
he desired to collect It, In that way,
decision would be secured from the
courts. However, IL is probable that
a decision will be rendered by Mr.,
Hogan before January l and consid-
erable trouble averted.

TOLL BELL FOR SENATORS
Rockford People Demand that Lori
mer and cullom Resign.

Rockford, ILL.,, March TN one Of
the greatest mass meetings ever held
in Rockford, attended by remarkable
scenes, the resignation Of Senators
VIM. E. Lorlmer and Shelby NJ. Cul-
lon were demanded Sunday by
1000 people of Rockford and other
points in Winnebago county.
The demand for the immediate re-
tirement of both Illinois senators was
made in vigorous resolutions which
we're adopted after the large assem-
blage had been wrought up by speech
es denouncing the senators who voted
for Lorimer's retention and the new
senator himself. A dozen orators
made bitter addresses.
The citizens committee which ar
ranged the meeting planned only to
rebuke both senators but before the
resolutions had been read in full, citi-
zens shouted make both resign" and
put Cullom out too"
A moment of suppressed silence
followed after Atty. A. e. Heuter, sec
rotary OF the citizens committee had
finished reading the resolutions.
Then the assemblage heard the
slow tolling of the bell in the steeple
Of the Second Presbyterian Church
one stroke for each of the 46 senators
who voted to retain Lorimer in the
Senate.
Prolonged cheering followed ant
only ended when Chairman r. A
Walsh raised his hand.
The first question is on the amend
ment to demand the resignation o
Shelby NJ. Cullom along with Lori
mer," he said. "As many as favo
the amendment raise your RICH
hands"
Up went 1000 hands, and Shout
greeted the announcement that tn
vote was unanimous. Ushers passed
out badges OF mourning. which tn
citizens will wear for 30 days to ex
press their feeling toward the Ser
ate's action.

al" Haynes, the University Of
Vermont pitcher who developed into
big league timber while with Ben
nington two years ago. will be with
the Pittsburg National league team
this year. He signed with the Smoky
City aggregation a year ago. was
farmed out to a New England team
and later transferred to the New Brit
ain team OF the Connecticut league.
Haynes was not particularly success
full with the New Englanders but
when he reached the Connecticut
league he proved to be one Of the
stars Of the year. With New Britain
he not only proved a winning pitcher
but he showed such ability at the bat
that he was used as a pinch hitter.
He was retained by New Britain but
it is evident that the Pittsburg man
agement came to the conclusion he
was ready for the big show" and re-
called him. Haynes made big
bunch of friends while In Bennington
and they will wish the quiet digniiied
southpaw all kinds OF success.
