CONTRACTOR G|LL|GAN HERE
TO SETTLE DIFFICULTIES
BETWEEN SUPERINTENDENT AND ClryENGINEEI
lie is Hopeful Obstacles to Completion of Sewer
System Can Be Removed and Ready
to Fulfill Contract to Letter

John Gilligan. principal in the COM
pany having the contract for the con-
struction of the trunk sewer system in
North Yakima, arrived in the city
Tuesday afternoon from Falls City,
Neb. He did not hesitate to say that
he came to straighten out the diff

the superintendent of the sewer con-
struction. John Crook, and that his Wis
it was prompted by the message he re-
ceived few days ago from Mr.. Nicol,
insisting on the removal of Mr.. Crook.
In an interview with the Herald, Mr..
Gilligan said:
well, l am on the ground, and while
I have been here but a few hours. and
have had no opportunity to look into
the matter I am hopeful that all diff
ficulties can be removed. and our con-
tract completed to the satisfaction of
the citizens of North Yakima. I have
met Mayor Feed and together we have
called upon the city engineer who
treated me very courteously. ! have
only seen one of the courcilmen. Mr..
Armbruster. who was with the mayor
and myself when we called upon the
engineer. 1t is too cart to say yet
what course will be pursued; l am not
fully advised as to all the trouble yet,
and can only speak in a general way.
1T is not infrequently the case that
trouble arises between the contractor
and the engineer in work of this kind,
even where both sides are doing their
utmost sincerely and faithfully to DO
what is right. A city engineer In
charge of the work in behalf of "a city
similar to the enterprise here. can, If
he chooses. work many and great hard
ships on the contractor without going
out of his way to do so. I will go so
far as to say that we have stood n good
deal here that should not have been re-
quired of us, and we must now stand
on our rights. I want to say emphat-
ically that we have no desire to drop
our contract, or shirk it. We want to
build your sewer. and we want to do
it right, as we will IL allowed to carry
