CHANGES TACTICS
IN HARBOR FIGHT
LUMBER COMPANY MANAGER
SWITCHES SIDES
After Obtaining All Concessions and
Franchises Necessary to Business,
w. T. Wheatley Begins to
Oppose Consolidation

Wilmington citizens are wondering
about the underlying reasons for the
opposition of w. T. Wheatley, vice
president and general manager of the
Consolidated Lumber company, to con-
solidation between Los Angeles and
Wilmington. Members of the board of
trustees and other prominent Whining
ton men say that Mr.. Wheatley was
an ardent consolidationist while asking
for franchises and vacations of streets
in the interest of his lumber project,
but that as soon as everything he
asked for was granted he came out
openly against the public harbor move
ment. At the present time Mr. Wheat
ley is almost the only force publicly
arrayed against consolidation in Will
mington.
Last fall Mr.. Wheatley assured us
that he favored consolidation" e, Opp,
member of the Wilmington board Of
trustees, said yesterday. He was then
asking for a spur track permit to serve
his new yards from the Southern Pa
cific, This he later changed to a re-
quest for a fifty-year franchise, and
that was granted him. He wanted n
franchise for spurs from the Pacific
Electric tracks, and he got that. He
was given his wharf franchise, and
when he wanted parts of Carson and
Watson streets and Fifth and Sixth
streets east of the Southern Pacific
right of way vacated as we'll as some
alleys, all this was done for him. Prac-
tically the only consideration was the
business benefits to be derived in
building up Wilmington by establish
ing the large lumber plants there. 1t
was urged in connection with vacating
the streets that the lumber yards will
be there permanently and that the
monorail system to be instituted by
the Pacific Lumber company could not
be operated with open streets running
through the yards
Gets Everything Asked
eve gave Mr.. Wheatiey everything
he asked as necessary for the estab-
lishment and building up of the lumber
industry. At that time he was strong
for consolidation, but since then he
has been working and talking against
it,"
II understand two days after he OBJ
tanned the last thing he asked for Mr.,
Wheatley told several of his men that
he did not want consolidation" said
Trustee Silva of the Wilmington board
HE told us that he thought it would
be better to have our own little gov
ernment down here than to put every
thing into the hands of a bigger city
Also he said that he could not expect
anything from Los Angeles if con-
solidated city should control the har-
Dor.
with the number Of men who will
be working for the lumber companies
in time at Wilmington it would not be
hard for the companies to swing
enough votes to elect a majority of the
trustees and then run Wilmington and
it's water front to suit themselves. I
don't know that Mr.. Wheatley has
thought of this, but, anyhow, he IS
dead against consolidation, although
when he was asking for franchises he
said he was for it. OF course he can
control some votes, but / don't think
enough to defeat consolidation. Per-

DEATH CLAIMS

MRS. ELEANOR HUDSON OF
THIS CITY KILLED
Wife of Santa Fe Coast Lines Super
Intendent Was One Of Those
Who Was Least Serl-
ousIy Hurt
(By Associated Press.)

SAN. DIEGO, July 19.-As a result of
a collision between a high-power auto
mobile crowded with passengers, sew
eral of them visitors in this city, and
a gasoline motor car today, seven per-
sons were so badly hurt that they were
taken to a hospital, and of these four or
five are still there at late hour to-
night, but it is thought six of the
victims will recover. Following is a
list of the casualties:
DEAD
MRS ELEANOR HUDSON of Los
Angeles, mother of Mrs. T. L. Hinbard.
INJURED
Mrs. E. B. Stuart, San Diego. jaw
dislocated, decorations about the mouth,
shoulder blade broken, back wrenched,
seriously injured, but will probably re-
cover.
Mrs. I. L. Hibbard, wife of the Santa

Gus.
H. G. Schonche, Oakland, right arm
fractured, bruises and cuts.
Mrs. H. G. Schonche, Oakland, bruises
and strained limbs
Mrs. ]. H. Thompson, Oakland,
strains and bruises.
Howard Mccain, chauffeur, San
Diego. cuts about face and head, possi-
bly, eoncussion of brain.
Eleanor Hudson, an aged lady died
at 1O:3O p. m. from her injuries.
Three Victims improving
Mr.. and Mrs. II. G. Shonche of Oak
land and Mrs ]. H. Thompson, also of
that city, who are among the injured,
are doing well tonight.
The accident appears to have been
due to the lack of experience OF the
chauffeur. Howard Mccain, youth of
10. who had been driving automobiles
only a fortnight or So He received a
bad injury in the head and tonight is
delirious, partly from shock and partly
from his wound. The supposition is
that he thought he had time to cross
the La Jolla railway track ahead of the
motor car. or that the latter would slow
down for him.
The party was EN- route to La Jolla
for a days outing AS Chauffeur Nc
Cam neared the railroad crossing ne
saw the La Jolla motor car approach
ing. but thought he could get across
the tracks ahead of it. He threw on
the high speed and rushed on to the
tracks. SThe motor car struck the rear
of the automobile and hurled the in
mates in every direction.
Two automobiles which happened to
be following the luckless machine
picked up the three most seriously in
iured and rushed them to the hospi-
tai The motor car in the meantime
proceeded to the next stop, where the
motorman asked for instructions, un-
der which he ran his car back to the
scene of the accident, picked up the
other four injured and conveyed them
part way to this city, the motor car
being intercepted at the city limits
with automobiles containing physicians
and nurses.

criterion the success of the Expositiol
is assured. The music, of course, Is
one of the leading features and the
concerts of the Russian Symphony
Orchestra in Music Hall have been at
tended by large crowds both after
noon and evening. The Monitor and

nothing short of sensation, while
the industrial exhibits have received
none but the highest words of praise.
Arthur Pryor and his band will
begin weeks engagement in Music
Hall on Monday, September 10, and,
owing to the hit made by this organi-
cation last season, large attendance
is expected Mr. Pryor comes from
musical family, his father having been
bandmaster. Young Pryor's early
training was obtained under his
parent. He became proficient in the
playing of the trombone and it was
his mastery of this instrument that
brought him to the attention Of
musicians and the public generallT.
He toured Fnropa with Sousa winning
the title of the Trombone King"
WlIh mis- development as musician
came his interest in all musical
problems. He is a composer of note
and ranks among the foremost in the
composition of band music. Those
under Pryor are affected by his ap-
parently limitless energy and the
members of his organization are
drawn from the leading bands of the
country
Mr. Pryor is typical American.
He is resourceful always searching
for novel features, and he can be de-

back with many new novelties, all of
which have met with great success
