sustained a broken hip and serious in
ternal injuries while Letbceltz es-
capped with a broken nose and severe

About a dozen men were at work
filling in the space between the wall
and embankment when without warn
ing about 20 feet of the wall collapsed.
Only a few men We're working be-
meath the wall and all escaped with
the exception of Granger. Letbceitz

CALIFORNIA FIELD
Forestry Service to Make First Of
flcial Inquiry of Possibilities of
Larger Area-Los Angeles
Is Headquarters

o. c. Merrill. hydraulic and sani-
tary engineer of the United States for
estry service, arrived in Los Angeles
yesterday to begin a special investi-
CATION of the water power resources
of Southern California.
1t is the first official investigation
of the water power of Southern Cali
fornia that has been authorized by
the government at Washington, and
the idea is to establish an equitable
adjustment between persons desiring
forest permits and the persons in
charge of the power plants.
The water power resources of Cali
fornia, according to Mr.. Merrill, have
never been investigated thoroughly,
and it is to compile a complete rec
ord of the water power that has been
developed, and the latent water power
resources, that Mr.. Merrill has been
specially delegated to investigate and
report.
For a long time it has been impossi-
BILE for any commission to estimate the
real water power of California and
the special investigation is expected
to establish a basis by which proper
regulations can be established with
water companies.
In order to obtain a forest water
right it is necessary to obtain a spe-
cial permit, and that these permits
have often been used for improper
personal advantages has come to the
attention of the forestry commission.
1t was therefore decided TO make a
minute investigation and Mr.. Merrill,
an associate member of the American
Society of Civil Engineering, was CIV
en- the appointment.
Mr.. Merrill comes from San Fran
cisco and will make his headquarters
at the Van Nuys hotel during his stay
in Los Angeles.

AntIered Herds from Ohio Towns Will
Make Trip to Los Angeles
in Palatia Special
Train

Garry Hermann, the president of
the National Baseball commission,
owner of the Cincinnati National
league team, and president of the
American Bowling association, VIII
arrive in Los Angeles July 10, and his
friends declare that before he leaves
the title of grand exalted ruler of the
Elks viii be added to his already
long list.
Mr.. Hermann has engaged quarters
at the Hotel Alexandria. He VIII
leave Cincinnati with the best equip
ped train that has ever come into Los
Angeles. Among those who will ac-
company Mr.. Hermann and be present
during the grand reunion of the Elks,
will be five past grand exalted rulers
of the BEST People on Earth, thirty
six exalted rulers and their wives, to-
gether with forty invited guests.
This special train, which will arrive
in Los Angeles July 10, is but one OF
the many that will leave Ohio carry
ing enthusiastic supporters of Her
mann, and that the popular baseball
magnate will return from Los An
geles bearing the highest title that it
is possible for the Elks to confer on
a member. seems probable.
In the party will be Joseph j. Fan
ming of Indianapolis; J. O'Brien, Bal
timore; John Calvin, CINCINNATI Rob-
ert Brown, Louisville, and John K.
Tanner of Philadelphia.
All these are past grand exalted
rulers and are enthusiastic in support
of Hermann for the big office.
Largely Supported
The Hermann party will make it's
quarters at the Hotel Alexandria and
already Charles A. Doran, personal
friend of Hermann's, is on the scene

paign from his quarters at the Alex
andria,
The Pasadena lodge of Elks, Santa
Monica lodge, Long Beach lodge and
the lodges of Oakland and San Fran
cisco have decided favorably toward
the candidacy of Hermann. Although
the Los Angeles lodge of Elks does
not desire to take an active part in
the selection of the highest official,
regarding such a movement as
breach of etiquette for a receiving
body, it seems assured that the ma
jority of votes from lodge No. SO will
be cast in Hermann's favor.
While not taking an active part in
the selection of the grand exalted rul-
err, a celebration has been arranged
by the Los Angeles delegation in the
event of Mr. Hermann's election.
Henry Berry, John Brink and Tom
Darmody have made arrangements to
conduct Mr.. Hermann about the prom
inent cities of the western coast in
the event of his election, and that
these members of the Los Angeles
lodge are able to entertain properly
can best be judged from certain pre-
vious entertainments.
Mr. Hermann has received strong
support in his campaign for the high
est office that can be given by the
Elks, and if his support in the east
is commensurate with that of the west,
there is no doubt that the genial base
ball commissioner will have the great
err number of votes when the tally is
counted at the business meeting Of
the Elks during the week of July u.
