HOPE TO REMOVE
ALL OBSTACLES
SAN PEDRO ANNEXATION STILL
POSSIBLE
Strong Effort Will Be Made at Sacra.
mento to Get an Amended
BUI Passed Permitting
Consolidation
Los Angeles and San Pedro may yet
have an opportunity of voting on the
question of consolidation.
There Ib a strong probability that the
legislature, before final adjournment
next week, will pass Senator Savage's
bill with slight amendments, making it
possible for Lob Angeles and the harbor
city to consolidate, providing' the propo
sition Is favored by a majority of the
voters of the respective cities.
lt became known yesterday that a
deputy In the office of District Attorney
Fredericks left Monday night for Sac
ramento for the purpose of attempting
to have passed by the legislature during
the closing days of the session a bill
which will enable the cities of Los An
geles and San Pedro to hold an election
to decide the question of consolidation.
This deputy, it Is said, went to the
state capital as the representative of
the Los Angeles chamber of commerce.
The fact that he has gone to Sacra
mento has not been advertised by those
•who were aware of his mission, arid
neither has announcement been made
that he Is going as the representative
or at the suggestion of the chamber
of commerce.
lt Is confidently asserted, however,
that the visit is the result of an effort
on , the part of the chamber of com
merce to cause the legislature to pass
the consolidation bill, with certain
amendments, before adjournment next
week.
The nature of the amendments sought
is not known, but it Is thought that
the desired changes are the removal of
several of the drastic provisions, or
lessening them to some extent, con
cerning the number of signatures re
quired to petitions calling for a special
election to vote on the question of
consolidation and for a reduction In
the two-thirds vote necessary for rati
fication.
No one connected with the consoli
dation work even would admit yester
day that another effort would be made
to have the legislature pass- an
amended bill.
The law committee of the consolida
tion commission yesterday submitted
to Judge Hunsaker, representing the
chamber of commerce, several 'points
regarding the status at Wilmington,
and It is expected that the committee
will make a report tomorrow or Satur
day on the v advisability of proceeding
with the work of bringing about the
consolidation of Wilmington with Los
Angeles through the disincorporate
of the inner harbor city. • -; / ; ■ ,
LOS ANGELES W. C. T. U.
WILL ELECT OFFICERS
The Los Angeles Women's Christian
Christian Temperance union will elect
Its officers for the new year at the First
Methodist church today. The officers
will be elected at the morning session,
which begins at 10 o'clock. The meet
ing will continue all day.
The Lob Angeles union is said to be
the largest in the world. When the
last national convention was held the
local union was awarded the white silk
banner as being the largest In the
world. Its membership at that time
was 1000, and although deaths and re
movals and the forming of new unions
have depleted this number to about 800
it is still the largest in the world.
Mrs. Lucy Blanchard, who for fifteen
years has stood at the head of the so
ciety, will probably succeed herself aa
president. She waa the first president
of the union when It was organized in
1892.
RAILWAYS ARE
MUCH DAMAGED
WASHOUTS AND LANDSLIDES
DELAY TRAINS
Through Traffic on Salt Lake Tempo
rarily Suspended — Cajon Pasa
Reported Clear — Santa Fe
Bridge Threatened
Softened tracks, landslides, washouts
and weakened bridges made it hard
going- for the railroads yesterday, al
though conditions were better than on
the preceding day. At San Fernando
tunnel, on the Southern Pacific, be
tween San Fernando and Nowhall, a
landslide occurred which probably will
not be cleared until tomorrow noon.
Two hundred men were at work last
night, but the hundreds of tons of
earth and rock which rolled down the
track make the clearing slow work..
At Barstow much damage was done
to a bridge on the Santa Fe by the
Mojave river. Two piers of the bridge
were washed away. Tuesday traffic
< was stopped In the valley, but yes
terday transfers were made at Bar-
Htow and part of the schedule was run.
A squad of 100 men working all Tues
day night cleared Cajon pass by 6
o'clock yesterday morning. Long pro
cessions of trains were waiting on both
sides of the landslide, but progress was
slow all along the line on account of
the soft roadbeds and patched up wash
outs.
The schedule on the coast line of the
Southern Pacific Is badly upset. While
no very serious damage has been
caused by the storm, the weakening of
the grades and bridges has slowed
travel so none of the rains have been
on time.
1 • Through truffle is blocked by the sub
merging of all the tracks at Elgin,
Nov. All through trains will have to
bc annulled. Salt Lake through traf
flo already Is nearly a week behind
and it probably will delay it another
week. Three trains returned yesterday
morning, having been recalled with all
the other eastern trains which . had
left, .
The New Orleans line of the South
ern Pacific was a heavy sufferer from
the storm In the Colorado desert. The
deluge of ; rain . and the rising of the
Salt,. ii sea, submerging the tracks, de
layed trains, but did - not destroy any
« ' the tracks *

"THE WOMAN WITH THE HOE"
CREATES SOMETHING OF A SENSATION
SUBURBAN 1 TOWN IS BADLY
TORN UP
Dispute Between the Keltys and the
Bartholomols Results in an AI.
leged Assault and Will Be
Settled In Court
If Millet, the creator of "The Man
With the Hoe," could have taken a day
off from the land of shadow a few days
ago and could have Journeyed to the
vicinity of Graham station he might
have found the sentiment for a modern
ized creation entitled "The Woman
With the Hoe."
At any rate, he would have, found
sentiment for a lively picture of some
kind, no matter whether he called It
the Battle of Waterloo or some other
name. Yesterday, as a result of the
scene which has disrupted both the
political and social world of Graham
station, Mrs. Emma Bartholomol ap
plied at the district attorney's office
for a warrant of arrest, charging Mrs.
Dora Kelty with battery.
The warrant was Issued and Mrs.
Kelty will be tried before Justice
Stephens of the township court. But In
the meantime half the people of Gra
ham station are calling each other
"mean things" over the row between
the Keltys and the Bartholomols, and
the peace of the little station has been
disrupted.
, According to the story told yesterday
by Mrs. Bartholomol to Assistant Dis
trict Attorney McComas, on the morn
ing of February 24 she was taking a
stroll along 1 one of the boulevards of
Graham station and was admiring the
beautiful bronze statues when she hap
pened to pass by the Kelty home.
Members of the Kelty family were out
in the front yard chasing the grass
hoppers off the buttercup bushes, and
Mrs. Bartholomoi turned and glanced
toward them. Wheher or not she raised
her lorgnette or not to lpok at the
maneuvers of the Keltys she did not
state. She did state that she made
some remark to her escort about how
nice the weather was and that Mrs.
Kelty Instantly imagined tli.n the re
mark had been made about the Keltys.
Words ensued — words of anger and re
proach—and Kelty Is alleged to have
said something to Mrs. Bartholomol,
and then Mrs. Bartholomol said some
thing to Kelty and Kelty said some
thing back, and Mrs. Bartholomol's
escort said Kelty had no right to talk
to Mrs. Bartholomol that way. There
upon, according to the allegations of
the complaining witness, Kelty con
vexed his flat in the direction of the
escort's face, causing precipitate dodg
ing by the escort.
It ia further alleged by Mrs. Bar
tholomol that Kelty seized a hoe with
which he had been knocking rattle
snake* off the lemon vines and was
about to hack his initials In her escort
when she Interfered by shouting that
the man with her wan an invalid and
that being in that condition he ought
not be hit on the head with the hoe for
fear it might hurt him.
Kelty agreed with her* and the hos
tilities were about to terminate, when,
according to the allegations <xr the
cuniiilalnt Hied yesterday, Mrt,
with a ahout of "Well, you art: nut an
invalid," swung the hou in a direct line
for Mrs. Bartbolomoi'* liuad. '

landed on Mrs. Bartholomoi's shoulder
and caused physical and mental pain.
The affair was reported to the chief
of police of Graham station and he
consulted with the mayor, and a com
mittee of adjustment was appointed to
arrange the affair. That was a week
ago, and since that time Mrs. Bar
tholomol has been waiting an apology
and a settlement.
There has been none forthcoming and
the complaining witness alleges that
Mrs. Kelty recently stated that it was
too bad the blow had not landed better.
Now they will thrash it out In court,
and Graham station will relapse from
Its throes of desperate excitement.

Special to The Herald.
RHYOL.ITE, Nev., March 6.— 8. F.
Taylor, president of the Rhyollte board
of trade, in his report Just before leav
ing for the east on a tour In the inter
ests of the Rhyolite board of trade,
said: "There never has been a time In
the history of the district in which the
city of Rhyollte was as prosperous as
it is now. There are more miners at
work in the mines today than there ever
has been before and the supplies, ma
chinery and hoists that are coming in
daily more than fill the capacity of the
road. Mr. Warm has stated that he
will send no more cars In after the 10th
of the month until the congestion of the
yard is lessened.
"The Echo Lee district, twenty-five
miles south of the city, Is also in excel
lent shape. There have been rich
strikes on the Lee Gold Grotto and
upon the Echo Lee properties, while the
consolidation of the Burro interests will
enable active mining to begin on that
property at once.
Railway Makes Promise*
"The telephone rate to the Pacific
coast has been cut to 50 cents for ten
word messages by personal order of
Clowry of"New York and Sunta Fe of
ficials have assured me that they will
enter into no rate agreements with the
Salt Lake that will be detrimental to
Rhyolite Interests in Southern Califor
nia.
" I have urged the building of the Sun
Pedro smelter for the purpose of saving
from one hundred to two hundred miles
in the hauling distance to the smelters,
for the engineers of the Las > Vegas &
Tonopah railroad gave an estimate of
8 0,000 tons of shipping ore when the
road was first talked of, and with that
much ore In the mines a hundred miles
on each ton will make a large differ
