(By Telegraph 20 The Tribune
Chicago, July 10.-Close upon the death
of James Petit, who was found dead
from drowning in Lake Michigan on Sat
urday morning, came an announcement
to-day Of the retirement from business
Of the firm of which he was president
and general manager
The retirement OF the grain company
followed meetings of officers Of the First
National Bank. the Corn Exchange Ma
tional Bank and possibly other Chicago
financial institutions. The tragic end
ing of Mr.. Pettt's life is said to have a
significant bearing on this action.
An official of the Corn Exchange Bank
put the amount OF the money involved
at $4,000 He said, however. that he
thought the banks would be secured by
the warehouse certificates for wheat put
ND as collateral, and also by the Peavey
interests in Minnesota, though the Pea
yey Grain Company is a separate corpo-
ration.

BINGHAM QUITS AS
HIGHWAYS ENGINEER
After Two Months in Office He
Is Unable to Accomplish
Anything, He Says.
SENDS LETTER TO M'ANENY
Former Police Commissioner Not
Satisfied with Inaction as
TO His Reports and
recommendations.

General Theodore A. Bingham, former
Police Commissioner, and by appoint
ment OF Borough President McAneny
chief engineer Of the Bureau Of high
WAYS since May 1, resigned the latter
office yesterday with all the precision
and prompitude which might be OK
pected of a man who had been trained
in the army. He simply couldn't get
action, he said. and got out.
He had no hard feelings toward Mr..
McAnenv, Mayor Gaynor or even Edgar
Victor rockingham, Commissioner OF
Public Works. his immediate superior,
but "by the nine gods of war" as he
used to say at Police Headquarters, he
did not care to waste his time in con
scientious work IN an office where he
could not accomplish anything.
So he sat down and wrote that to
Borough President McAneny Yesterday
after talk with Mr. NcAnenv last Fri
day. in which General Bingham init
mated that he would no longer remain
in office unless he could get some action
toward carrying out his plans for put
ting In order the payements Of The city
streets.
Though General Bingham didn't say
last night what satisfaction he received
from Mr.. McAneny after this talk of
three davs ago, it is understood that
whore the Borough President had prom
ised him carte blanche to go ahead and
put the street5 in proper condition when
hc took office, Mr. McAneny was in
cllncd 10 suggest Limitations" at Fri
DAYS conference. This apparently was
the last straw for tho chief engineer
and ho decided then and there to quit
the office. though he regretted not to bc
able TO help" the Borough President, as
he had noped 70 do, according to his let
ter YESTERDAY.
Borough President Mchneny said last
night that he would accept General
Ringham's resignation to-day, though he
regretted 10 lose him He said there
had been no friction between General
bingham and himself and as far as he
knew mono between Commissioner
rockingham and his chief engineer.
General Bingham called on him two or
three days ago Mr.. McAneny said, and
had asked to call again for further con-
ference. so the letter of resignation had
been unexpected He had had no time
10 consider a successor in the office, he
said.
