The Water Front Right-of-
Way Conflict.

F. r. Parker, superintendent for Shep-
ard. Henry & Co. on the Great Northern
road, was in the city with his wife yester-
day. He said that about 1900 men were
al work on this side of the mountains, and
that the number would soon be increased
to 5000. The grading is almost finished
as far as Granite Point, thirty-three miles
from Snohomsh, and track laying will
begin at this end before August. The
small tunnels are nearly all finished and
work on the switchback will begin In
about two weeks The track of the switch
back will be built on timbers, as such
structure can be put up more rapidly than
a road could be blasted out of the rock.
and will last until the tunnel Is finished,
when it will be no longer used. trading
has also begun at the point near Lowell
where the main line is to- connect with the
Coast line. During the high water OF last
week about eight miles Of the grade was
under water, but the rivers have now
fallen and the snow is rapidly dIsap-
pearing.
w. J.. Watson, who is here from Wen
atchee on visit, says that the roadbed Is
nearly finished between Spokane and the
Columbia river, the grading being practi-
cally completed and only little rock
work remaining to be done. The Local
ton of the bridge over the Columbia has
been decided upon and is about nine and
one-fourth miles below Wenatchee. The
bridge will be steel cantilever, with
420-foot span from the east side to nat
ural rock in the river. and another 10
foot span to the west side. Between 700
and 500 men are ut work between Wen
atchee and the summit, and the number
will soon be increased TO 1000, as con-
tractors are continually going up the line.
The headquarters of the engineers de-
partment for the east side of the mount
ainc have been established ut Wenatchee,
J. w. Tompkias being tie principal as
sistant engineer.
