An Injunction Stops the Rebuilding of Green-
 Street Wharf.
Nothing Can Be Done to Lon- bard Street Wharf for the
 Same Reason.
In Consequence Vessels Are Waiting Five Deep to Secure North
 End Places.

There is not a spare berth on the en- tire water front, and applications are five deep for space at the Wharves north of Market street. Green street. at which there is space for several ships, is half torn down, and, judging by the way things are going now, it will not be ready for use for six months to come. The Harbor Commissioners and the contractors have been more than anxious to get the work complet- ed, but injunction after injunction has been served upon the board, and now no one seems to know when the wharf will be completed. For want of repairs. Lombard-sreet wharf is also in such a condition that vessels cannot dock at it, so the Chief Wharfinger is very much hampered by the want of space on the north end of the front
 When the question of repairing both these wharves first came up, it was the intention of the Harbor Commission to supply all the necessary piles and creo- sote them, and bids for the doing of the work only were called for. Before the contract was awarded the commission was enJoined by the Pacific Pine Lum- Der Company. The Commissioners won the case, but it was then necessary to
 
 tractor was called upon to supply the necessary piles, but the board reserved the right to have the timbers preserved by any process they saw fit. Healy, T1bbetts & Go. secured the contract, and at once dispatched the bark Merom to the Sound for the necessary lumber. Then bids were called for the treating of the piles. and the contract was awarded to the San Francisco Timber Preserving Company; but in the mean time the Paraff1ne Paint Company served another injunction on the board, and the matter is now being settled in the courts.
 The bark Merom has now arrived and there is no wharf at which to dock the vessel, and even when she is docked Healy. Tibbetts & Go. cannot proceed with the work, as the Harbor Commits SlOnerS will not be able to have the piles creosoted until the case now in court is settled. In order to get the vessel off their hands, the contractors will have to build a temporary wharf at Green street. on which to discharge the timbers. The contractors are more than anxious to get the work complet- ed, as they have over S12, 900 in lumber alone tied up in the job. As the mat ter stands now, should the Harbor Commissioners win, new bids will have to be called for.
 The contract time for the completion of the repairs to Green-street wharf has already expired, but some time ago Healy, Tibbetts & Go. notified the board that they were ready to deliver the piles at any place designated, ask ing that body when it would be ready to begin the treatment of the timbers

 TO MURDER Nathan Phillips Fatally Shot by Charles E.
 WeatherS.
A Tragedy in Low Life Enacted in an Ellis Street
 Dive.
The Murderer Pleads, as Usual, That He Has No Recollection of
 tho Affair.

Nathan Phillips, who was employed as a night bartender at the Empire Theater, an underground resort at 21 Ellis street, was shot and instantly killed shortly before o'clock yesterday morning by Charles E. Weathers, a re- cent arrival from Visalia.
 Weathers was under the influence of liquor at the time, and, he says, does not remember under what circum- stances the fatal shots were fired. He arrived here Christmas week and has been living in a rooming house at 1O9 Powell street
 According to the story told by those conversant with the circumstances. Weathers started off Wednesday night to see the after night side of city life He spent his money lavishly. got intox- icated in a short time, and wandered from one disreputable resort to another Early in the evening he visited the Empire Theater, and returned again about 5:3O yesterday morning to claim that he had been robbed of S2Q by one of the waitresses.
 He sought out the ostensible proprie- tor of the place, Peter Hall; and de- manded that the money be returned. AAC as HUI Ilt0 lIidl Ie WAS InlS- taken. and that probably he had been robbed In oDe of the other dives visit ed by him. Thereupon he drew a re- volver, and, leveling 1t at Hall, said he intended getting what belonged to him before he left the place. Hall, who is somewhat of a sprinter, darted up the stairs leading to Ellis street, with Weathers in close pursuit. Hall blew for police help when he reached the sidewalk and this attracted the atten- tion of Lester Goldberg, a hackman. who has a stand in front of the the ater.
 Weathers leveled the revolver at Goldberg, who promptly lodged behind his back Weathers then walked back 10 the head of the stairway. Phillips, who was on his way home, was as- cending the steps. when Weathers fired two shots in rapid succession down the stairs at him.
 Officers Phil Fraher, Hurd and Cook were standing at the corner of Market and stockton streets when the shots rang out. They ran up Ellis street and found Weathers. with a revolver in his hand, crouched up against the side of the building. Fraher caught him from behind and Hurd grabbed him by the arms. In an instant he was disarmed and the handcuffs placed on him. While Fraher and Hurd were taking Weathers to the Central station Officer Cook went down into the thea ter and found Phillips lying dead on the floor about three feet from the bot tom of the stairway
 Only one of the two shots fired by Weathers took effect. The bullet struck Phillips between the right ear and eye and penetrating the brain caused in- stant death.
 Philips was a native of California, 2 years of age and resided with his widowed mother at 16 Yerba Bucna street.
 Weathers. acting under the advice of his e unset. declined to make any state ment yesterday other than that he was sorry for the occurrence.
