RECALL PETITIONS BEING CIRCULATED AGAINST REDMOND
Council Sets Date for Disincorporation Election April 19; Recall Vote Later.
The row originating over disposition of road funds in the city of Stanton has taken a new angle with the circulation of a petition to recall E. H. Redmond, councilman, according to reports from Stanton today.
Recall proceedings had been started some time ago against Mayor Roe Councilman Robison and City Clerk Beecher. The trio has stood for expenditure of practically all the money in the treasury in the improvement of one street, Stanton-ave. Redmond had opposed this, urging work be spread out to other streets.
At the council meeting this week, the date for the disincorporation election was set for April 19. If the disincorporation election fails, as seems likely, the recall election will be held later.
Players Escape; Also May Liberate Gamblers
CHICAGO, March 17—Indictments against seven White Sox baseball players charged with "throwing" the 1919 world series to Cincinnati were dismissed today by Judge William Dever.
The judge said he had no authority to dismiss the case against the eighth player—Chick Gandil—because Gandil had never appeared in court.
The trial of the gamblers alleged to have "fixed" the players was indefinitely postponed. The indictments were nolled on motion of States Attorney Robert Crowe who said that he would be unable to go to trail by May 2, the date set for the opening of the trial by Judge Dever.
Crowe announced, however, that he would later seek reindictment of the ball players when he is able to reconstruct the case against them which, he said, was torn down by repudiation of the alleged confections given before the grand jury by three of the indicted men.
The statute of limitations on the alleged conspiracy to throw the series will expire on April 1 and after

PLAN BATTLE UPON COUNTY TRUCK LAW
That the county ordinance fixing the maximum load of trucks at 23,400 pounds will be contested is indicated in the action of attorneys for the Simon Brick Co. of Los Angeles in asking for a continuance of the trial of three truck drivers.
The three men were cited to appear before Justice of the Peace Cox yesterday, but a continuance has been granted until April 19. In the meantime, it is understood, the attorneys for the brick company will prepare papers attacking the constitutionality of the ordinance.
Dist. Atty. A. P. Nelson today declared that the ordinance would stand the test. He said that supervisors went into the validity of the act before it was passed and that there is no question as to its constitutionality.
The county ordinance conflicts with the state law in that it fixes the maximum truck load at 23,400 pounds, while the state motor vehicle act puts it at $0,000 pounds.
The three drivers for the Simona Brick Co. who were arrested on charges of driving overloaded trucks were L. Stockstill, J. D. Jett and Harry Ashton.
TRUCK OVERLOADING CHARGE BRINGS FINE
Two separate fines aggregating $80 were paid by a representative of Allen Bros., of Los Angeles, who appeared before Justice of the Peace Cox to answer to complaints charging truck drivers of the Los Angeles firm with driving overloaded trucks.
One complaint was against Thomas L. Sitton and the other against J. G. Woodard. Both were arrested by Traffic Officer H. S. Warner on Lincoln-blvd March 5. Sitton's truck was overloaded to the extent of one ton and Woodard's was overloaded by three tons, the officer said.
The county ordinance fixes the maximum load at 23,400 pounds and the penalty is $20 per ton or fraction thereof.
The two trucks were loaded with oil well rigging and iron.
3 MORE SANTA ANA CHIROPRACTORS HELD
Three Santa Ana chiropractors were arrested yesterday afternoon by the States Attorney Robert Crowe who said that he would be unable to go to trail by May 2, the date set for the opening of the trial by Judge Dever.
Crowe announced, however, that he would later seek reindictment of the ball players when he is able to reconstruct the case against them which, he said, was torn down by repudiation of the alleged confections given before the grand jury by three of the indicted men.
The statute of limitations on the alleged conspiracy to throw the series will expire on April 1 and after that the players cannot be reindicted. It was considered extremely doubtful if Crowe could get this evidence in shape, present it to the grand jury and obtain an indictment before April 1.
Officials generally regarded today's action as the end of the famous case.
MASONS, WIVES AND FRIENDS BANQUET
At a splendidly arranged banquet and entertainment, which was delightful in its informality, about 225 Masons, their wives and friends were entertained last evening at the Masonic Temple. The affair was given by the Masons, as a courtesy to the ladies, and was entirely in charge of the men, who certainly won honors for their gracious hospitality. Much credit is due the committee composed of Messrs. Henderson, Metcalf, Fergus and Johnson.
The tables were beautifully decorated in a color scheme of pink and green...pink carnations and ferns being used. During the serving of the banquet, a local orchestra furnished some good music.
A program was given in the lodge room, including a short address of appreciation by Mrs. J. P. Brastad who, on behalf of the members of the O. E. S., extended the Masons their hearty appreciation for the delightful entertainment. The second number was a vocal duet by Mrs. Frank Trotter and Mrs. W. B. Holland, to which they graciously responded with an encore. Mr. George Jackson also favored with a solo which was excellent. The closing part was short talks by Past Masters Chas. Eygabroad, William Falkenstein, T. L. Hoag, A. Alexander, H. O. Henderson and E. H. Metcalf.
The guests tarried after the program and enjoyed an hour of social visiting.

MORE WHEAT, LESS BARLEY THIS YEAR
More wheat and less barley acreage than last year is the condition in Orange-co, according to James Sleeper, county assessor.
The barley acreage yet remains much greater than the wheat.
Most of the barley and practically all of the wheat in the county is raised in the southern part, south of Santa Ana. El Toro and San Juan Capistrano are centers in this district.
Much interest is being shown by grain men in the new Marlout barley, which was tried in small plots by a number of barley growers. This type of grain, adjocated by the Orange County Farm Bureau, has never been adequately tried out in this district. It is said to be hardier and better able to stand drought and adverse weather conditions than any other of the common types.
The barley throughout the county is in excellent shape. The stand is uniform, indicating a general germination of seed planted. The season has been a good one for growing thus far and the large moisture content in the soil from the recent storm should last in good shape, barring heavy winds or excessive hot weather. Prospects are said to be good for a big crop this season.

Mike Callahan was found not guilty by a jury of six men and six women in Superior Judge Williams' court today on a charge of giving the Salvation Army of Santa Ana a check for $15 with intent to defraud. Callahan had spent some time in jail awaiting disposition of the case.

Large gatherings were barred in Dublin but many persons appeared in the streets wearing the ancient Gaelic costume and talking Gaelic.
Word reached Sinn Féin leaders that Great Britain is ready to recognize the Irish parliament as comprising the duly selected representatives of the Irish people. The recognition will be based, it was said, on the fact that the Dail Eireann is composed of men elected to the British house of commong but refusing to serve.
With that fairly definite assurance, Ireland's peace leaders hoped for church aid to arouse peace sentiment.
Cardinal Logue, primate of Ireland, requested that the special services today include prayers for peace.
GUARDS WATCHING
WOOLWINE IN COURT
LOS ANGELES, March 17. — Tense with expectancy of a clash at arms between Dist. Atty. Woolwine and Atty.

Norris, got under way this morning, with order carefully preserved by a squad of armed guards.
Ignoring each other, the lawyers sat with backs turned while cross-examination proceeded without the usual blocering between counsel, and the trial went on without excitement.
Woolwine was to go into police court this afternoon to appear before Police Judge Chesebro on a charge of disturbing the peace, which is the second complaint lodged against him by Schenck, as the result of his assault on the attorney. A first charge of assault and battery is pending.
Mr. Fred Bunning has purchased from James E. Stewart a 230-acre stock ranch in Mariposa-co, near Ben Hur, and will move with his family to the northern ranch next week. Mr. Stewart has bought from Mr. Bunning his residence on East Broadway and will make extensive improvements thereon.
