BIG BREAKWATER IN DANGER
Salt Lake Road Comes to Rescue of
Coronado and Sends Flat Cars
for HauIjnu Rock

BY consenting to send a number of
fiat cars to Coronado, General Manager
Wells of the Santa Fe yesterday ac-
tually saved much property from ruin.
During the past few weeks new
breakwater running parallel with the
beach front of Hotel del Coronado has
been in the course of construction, but
it was recently found that the work
could not be completed before the
heavy tides began to run.
After consulting with his engineers,
Superintendent w. B. Warner of the
Spreckels company came to realize
that the unfinished breakwater would
be torn down, the coast front washed
away and in all probability the large
hotel and a number of fine residences
would be greatly damaged.
After the experience of last year.,
Mr.. Warner decided that immediate,
action would be necessary to save the
work The limited supply of cars to
handle the great rocks being quarried
for the breakwater was all that pre-
vented the work from being finished
in ample time.

cars from the Santa Fe and the South
