WHITMAN GETS
TWENTY REASONS
TO GUST M'CALL
Investigators Send Details
in Response to Accused
officials Demand.
HAYWARD MEETS
CHAIRMAN'S ATTACK
Engineers Reports Favorable to
Corporations Accepted, Unfa.
vorable Re- elected, He Testifies.

The responsibility for keeping Ed
ward f. Mccall as chairman Of the
Public Service Commission was placed
squarely up to Governor Whitman by
the Thompson committee Yesterday.
Senator Thompson, its chairman, sent
letter to the Governor giving twenty
reasons why Mccall should not be
kept in Office and asserting that the
committee would prove every one Of
them at the hearing on November 30.
Only a short time before Senator
Thompson made this announcement
Public Service Commissioner Hayward
sharply answered Chairman Mccall for
the latter's outburst at the meeting Of
the commission on Friday. He indi-
Gated to the Investigators that Mccall
was willing 10 accept the reports OF
the commissions electrical engineer
when they were favorable to the cor
porations, but rejected them when they
were unfavorable.
Mr.. Hayward was the only witness
before the committee, but he succeeded
in getting things into the record which
NAV also be used against Mccall at
the hearing before the Governor. At
the meeting of the Public Service Com
mission on Friday Mccall was so in
censed over Mr.. Hayward's activities
in the Third Avenue case that he lost
his temper, saying, among other things,
that he would not order the prosecu-
ton of the Third Avenue for not COM
the report of IAN electrical engineer
Same Engineers Report Accepted.
Mr.. Hayward yesterday showed that
when this same engineer recommended
an extension Of time for the b. K. l..
the chairman accepted the report with
out question. Clifton W. Wilder. cleo
trical engineer of the commission,
made the two reports.
ut appears, then" said Senator
Thompson, chat Chairman Mccall was
willing 70 accept the report or the
commissions engineer when II was
favorable TO the corporations, but re-
iected il when it was unfavoraDle :!
81 do not want TO characterize II,
Commissioner Hayward responded;
"the record speaks for itself"
The twenty reasons for McCalls re-
moval which the committee sent 10 the
Governor are in answer TO the demands
of the Public Service chairman for
bill Of particulars. Among the accusa-
tions are allegations that his accept
snce of his appointment was in viola
ton Of law, in that at the time ne was
the owner Of stock in corporation
subject to the supervision of the com,
mission that thereafter he attempted
TO transfer such stock to his wife, but
that such attempt was mere subter-
fuge and a clumsy attempt 20 evade
the statute, and that he participated IN
the consideration of matters pending
before the commission affecting me

has just done the trick on the Arrow
lakes The deer weighed 200 pOends
and the trout ten. The fisherman was
trolling for trout when several deer

hold of him as he was gong by.

Toronto Globe. The buck objected so
strenuously that he got away, swim

his horns The fisherman bailed out
his boat and started in pursuit. Alter
two hours rowing he caught up with
the deer, and with oars and knife sue
ceeded in Staying it. While the chase
was proceeding a big trout got on to
the hook and after the deer was safely
landed the fish was secured. 1t is
quite a common occurrence to see
deer swimming in the lakes of British
Columbia, but to capture one and
trout at the same time is infrequent.
Conductor Mckay, of the Nakusp
and SLOGAN branch of the Canadian
Pacific railway, previously held hon
ors in Kootenay for securing Wild
animal in unique fashion. He, while
on a moving train near Nakusp, shot
and killed a big bear, but the hsher-
