SHENk RESIGNS
JOB AS MAYOR
OF INDIANAPOLIS
Believed He Would be Impeached
if There Were More Labor
Troubles.

Indianapolis, Nov 2S.-Rather
than face impeachment, Samuel L.
Schenk late this afternoon resigned
as mayor. He was automatically
succeeded by Harry r. Wallace, city
comptroller. A committee of bust
ness men had prepared proceedings
to remove him from office in case
OF any further labor trouble in this
city, and when the mayor was told
by labor leaders this afternoon that
a strike of union teamsters was i'm
minent, sent his resignation to tlie
city clerk.
Mayor Wallace said the police sit
uation was so critical, he would
take personal charge for a time.
The new mayor has been prominent
in politics for some time.
