Cady is demanded by rour members of the Citv Council. The Mayor absolutely declines to resign. The -result is a complete deadlock in the municipal administra tion.

The Mayor is said to have taken exception to ine arrest. After the man was discharged, the Mayor appointed Arthur Hansen, editor of the local paper, to the position of Marshal. He could not run the citv electric light plant, which is one of the duties of the office, and was replaced in the position by Councilman Albert Zimmerman, who resigned from the Board. Although Mayor Cadv was aDnointed by the Council to fill the unexpired term of the former Mayor, the Council cannot remove him. Recall proceed ings are threatened, but Cady has not Deen in orrice the required six months. By the time he completes that period his term will expire before a recall election could be held, as under the law it would take a month to publish and advertise the election.
