Special Dispatch to The can.

PALO ALTO, Aug. 15.-At a meeting
OF the Board OF Trade last night G. NJ.
Wooster of San Francisco was present
in the interest of project to build a
fine tourist hotel in Palo Alto. A com
mittee was appointed for the purpose
of securing stock subscriptions to the
amount OF $4,000 and there are good
prospects that the amount will be sub
scribed. The town has not a frst-class
hotel and for this reason few tourists
stop here except for an hour or two.
1t was announced that the Super
visors OF Santa Clara and San Mateo
counties would unite IN appropriating z
$4,000 for a bridge across the San Fran
cisquito Creek at the intersection OF

Contractors to Appoint
Members of Commission
Special Dispatch to Tn. CAN.

REDWOOD CITY, Aug. 15.-The
charges and counter charges concern
ing alleged Irregularities in the con-
struction of the new Courthouse have
finally provoked from the Supervisors
a decision to appoint a board of in
quiry to make a thorough inveSt1ga-
tion. Supervisor McBain, having en-
ployed an expert on his own respon-
sibility, submitted "a report to his col
leagues showing that his contention,
that certain work on the building is
not being done properly, is sustained.
The contractors replied that tney
have done the work strictly in accord
ance with the specifications. If an in
vestigation should prove otherwise the
contractors declare that they will do
the work all over again without cost
to the county The Board of Super
visors determined therefore to order
the appointment of a commission or
two to make complete investigation
One of these Investigators Will be
chosen by the Supervisors and the other
by the contractors. If these two can
not agree upon a report hey will select
a third judge to decide the issue.
