FIRST COLUMN Of
TUTW|LER HOTEL IS
RAISED INTO PLACE
WOrkInen Announce That
They Will Try to Set New
Record for the Steel
Construction

After annoying but unavoidable delays
the first steel column was erected at
the Tutwier hotel yesterday morning at
11:4o o'clock. Ttere We're no formali-
ties attending the beginning of steel con-
struction.
In fact Robert Jemison, Jr., who has
handled the details of the structure, and
William Leslie Welton, the architect, were
the only officials present when r. H.
Flowers steel worker fitted the first
bolt into place which held the steel col
umn No wine was broken across the
steel and no flowers were presented the
workmen. It was decided that the for
maities and the wine well as the
flowers and music would be arranged for
the opening of the hostelry
The steel workers have been placing
the steel caps during the past 10 days,
which will support the steel columns. The
last of the caps was placed yesterday
morning and it was announced that the
steel would be placed a once. Hurried
ly few of those interested went to the
corner of Fifth avenue and Twentieth
street. where the passersby had congre-
gated and where shortly the beam was
in the air.
The steel workers that assisted in the
affair yesterday and shown in the photo
graph are: Charles Anderson, superin-
tendent for the Mullin company; NJ. john
ston. foreman r. Fl. Flowers who at
tached the first steel bolt d. c. Mitch
ell, Charles Withers, w. Waldo and j.
S. Harold, engineer
The steel workers were treated by
the management when they ceased work
at noon. as is the custom on Saturday.
They promised that a record would be
made in erecting the steel for the Tut
wiler. They said that beginning tomor-
last piece was in place. there would not
be lost one second. The managers be-
lieve that the steel workers are deter
mined to make the record and will at
tain that ambition. That the work will
be completed within 30 days if the wealth
er continues favorable, is the general
opinion.
The Tutwler hotel is the fourth piece
of construction started this year. The city

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

NEW YORK, March 13-Southern Pacific company with the concurr- renee of the Union Pacific railroad company. announced today a modified plan of dissolution under the United States supreme court decree in place of original plan which recently met with such serious opposition before the California railroad commission. The new plan as outlined by Julius Krutschnitt chairman of the Southern Pacific substantially provides for a traffic agreement without trackage privile ges to the Union Pacific and Central Pacific. In brief, the South ern Pacific is willing to carry the Union Pacific Central Pacific traffic over the Bencia cut off and Califor nia terminals. instead of allowing those roads the direct use of this cut off and Southern Pacific termi- nals. Incidentally although this was not referred to by Chairman Krmutt- schnitt the acceptance by the federal authorities and the California com mission of these provisions would effectually bar out the Western Pa cific, which asserted it's right to use the Benicia cut off and Southern Pa cific terminals

Constitutionalistas who overthrow the federal garrison at Nogales, Sonora, are tonight in possession of the border town after fight which continued with little abatement for twelve hours. The casualties are estimated at one hundred dead and twice as many wounded on both sides, although an accurate count was not made.
 Private Allen A. Unfleet of Troop G. Fifth Cavalry, U. s. A. was wounded seriously by rebel bullet while doing police duty near the international line here. The shot passed through his face from nose to ear. No other Amer jeans were injured. Unfleet was shot down when the attack was at i>; height Lieut.. Col. Tate in charge of the Fifth Cavalry patrol instantly sent word to Gen. Obregon in command of the rebel forces:
 You have shot one of my men. Cease firing or I will be after you at once"
 At the same moment the firing from the regulars under Col KosterlitZky and Reyes was slackened. By some preconcerted arrangement Tate called a bugler and ordered him to sound the Mexican "cease firing" order. The federal garrison instantly Obeyed, but desultory firing continued to come from the beseigers.
 Gen Obregon succeeded in holding back the firing of his men, so the colo nels Kosterlitzky and Reyes with their forces were able to cross to the United States. where they surrendered to Col. Wilber F. Wilder of the Fifth Cavalry, who arrived too late to take command of the American troops. The Mexican
