CONSOLIDATION WORK
WORKING COMMITTEE NAMED
IN SAN PEDRO

Especial to The Herald. ]

SAN PEDRO, March 26.-The work.
ing committee on consolidation. the
seven representative men appointed by
DIR. William A. weldon, consists Of
John T. Gaffey, John A. Anderson,
Lewis Hansen, E. D. Seward, H. w.
Armour, DR.. ]. s. Gwaltney and James
H. Dodson. AS chairman of the meet
ing of the 200 taxpayers, DR.. Weldon
will also work on the committee, as will
also Attorney Joseph H. Call of Los
Angeles, who was elected by the meet
ing of taxpayers Wednesday night a
member at large.
This working committee will confer
with the committee of fifteen from Los
Angeles and report back to a commit
tee of thirty-flve, which is composed of
taxpayers and business men of San
Pedro, East San Pedro and Terminal
Island, and includes, besides the seven
above mentioned, the following: George

In due time the big committee will
report back to the citizens and tax
payers of the city, who will approve or
reject the proposition offered by the
committees of both cities.
The meeting this afternoon gave no
definite instructions to the smaller
committees, except to insist that the
immediate improvement OF the outer
harbor and the solution OF the terminal
rate question be the first matters taken
up. Many short speeches were made,
the understanding being that immedi-
ate improvement OF the outer harbor,
to be connected with Los Angeles by a
broad macadamized boulevard, is of
the utmost Importance, and the COM
mittee from Los Angeles must under
stand from the outset that San Pedro
will want these matters and several
more settled before an election Is called.
While the smaller committee is made
up of the leading workers for console
dalton since the beginning of the move
ment last fall the big committee in
cludes many who heretofore have been
against the movement or non-commit-
tai on the question. But as some of
these have large interests at stake,
they will be in position to know what
Is going on and to help in securing for
san Pedro the concessions which are
to be obtained before the union is eff
fected.

SEVEN FILLIES TO
TRY FOR OAKS
NEXT TO LAST STAKE OF SEA-
SON RUN TODAY
ARoUsEs OLD RIVALRY BETWEEN
COAST TRACKS
Rose Queen Shipped Here Especially
to Win This sentimentalIy Great
Event-Classy Field viii
Face Barrier

Next to the last event of the Santa
Anita season will be run this after
noon, when seven fillies will try for the
glory of being known in history as the
winner of an Oaks. 1t will be the
seventh running of the Los Angeles
Oaks, a race that is second only to the
Los Angeles derby in sentimental value,
although being actually worth less than
half the amount that the latter event
paid. 1t is at mile and has as esti-
mated gross value Of $4,000.
1t Is expected that the race will be
quite an exciting event, as Rose Queen
was shipped from Emeryville especially
to WIN this race, and the old rivalry
between the rooters for the two tracks
will be very much in evidence. IL mas
been a tough Job for an Emeryville
horse to come south and beat our stake
horses, and while Rose Queen is
classy filly and has won many races
this season, owners of the Santa Anita
bunch of starters will go to the last
ditch to save the glory and honor Oh
the southern track and its prestige by
making one of the Santa Anita Miles
win This means the keenest rivalry
and a great race, which always results
where pure sentiment, instead OF the
commercial feature, enters into horse
racing. 4.
The race will not be as attractive to
racegoers as would have been the case
had the track been lightning fast, as
was the prospect few days ago, ana
the field will not be as large, put tne
hest class of FLIES in training on the
coast will try for the prize, and despite
the mud will furnish an event that Will
be long remembered.

BANKERS ORGANIZE
SIX TEAM LEAGUE
lronclad Agreement Is Drawn Up That
No Outsiders Be Permitted
to Participate in
Games

A bankers league, to consist of six
teams representing as many local
banks, was organized yesterday. The
teams are the Farmers and Merchants,
First National, Citizens National, Ma
tional Bank of California, Merchants
National and the German-American
bank. The first game In the series will
be played April 10, and the season will
continue for fifteen weeks.
The diamonds that have been select
ed are the Boyle Heights Athletic dia-
mond and Harvard military field. Me-
gotiations are pending for either st.
Vincent's or Joy park diamond. r. #.
Stearns was chosen president of the
bankers league and Fred C. Bowles
secretary. A silver trophy cup will be
awarded the team which heads the
league at the end of the fifteen weeks
playing.
Last season the organization played
successfully throughout the summer
season, and the evenly matched clubs
furnished some exciting sport. The
pitching staff this year will be stronger
than formerly, as Delhi, formerly of the
Santa Monica high school, and other
star players have been secured to work
in the points for the bankers.
The bylaws are stricter this year than
last, and an iron-clad agreement has
been drawn UP to the effect that no
outsider will be allowed to play in any
of the games, and that all players shall
be bona fide employees of the banks.
Anv infringement of this rule will mean
the expulsion from the league of the
team found guilty.

HEAVY REAL ESTATE DEAL IS

Magnificent Spanish Mansion Erected

Held for Sale to East
ern Capitalist
[speclal to The Herald.1

PASADENA, March 26.-One of the
largest real estate transactions,
Il If not the largest in the history
of Pasadena, was closed today when
the ownership of the famous caste,
located on the browning hill at the
head of Marengo avenue and Washing
ton street, was transferred from W. L.
Porterfield of Pasadena and Long
Beach to ]. @. Anderson I'D DR.. L. M.
Hayden. The deal was made through
the medium of an exchange OF san
JOAQUIN valley and Los Angeles prop
erty for the show place of the north
side.
The Castle was built by Col. W. w.
Harrison, the Minneapolis lumber king,
at cost of nearly $4,000. 1t stands
well within the north limits of the
city, in an estate of it's own, compris-
ing over thirteen acres. The value or
the lands that have changed hands in
the transaction is well over half a
million dollars.
There is much romance connected
with the affair. Col. Harrison select
ed this spot as the ideal home place
and began buying out private owners.
He even went so far as to buy some
of the streets of the city and include
them in his projected home site. In
the cid ne got all the land he wanted,
and put up a magnificent building In
the Spanish castellated style.
The house has one of the finest out
looks in Southern California, and is an
enormous place, fit for the habitation
OF king. 1t stands on one of the
highest hill crests in Pasadena.
Anderson and Hayden give in ex-
change for the property 5000 acres of
land near Fresno and some business
lots in Los Angeles. The new owners
will hold the Castle as a speculation,
with the idea of selling it to some
wealthy winter visitor.
The sale was made through the
agency of the Los Angeles office of
Pierce & Anderson and the Pasadena
firm of James H. Gaut & CO.
