Railroad Fight ut Yakima.

Engineer +. L. Pitman, of the North
Coast road on the witness stand today,
in condemnation proceedings of that
company against the Northern Pacific
for a right of way across the land
south of the lower end of Selah street,
said that It would cost about $4,000
to make change in its plans of en-
tering the city as suggested by the
Northern Pacific officials attending
the case.
The main contention OF the North
ern Pacific in fighting the entrance of
the North Coast into the city is that
the latter road seeks to take ground
that 1t wants for purposes of improve
ments. The North Coast aims to
reach the warehouse district. To do
sc IL must enter Selah street at the
foot. 1t is necessary to cross over the
20-acre tract of the Northern Pacific
otherwise a direct line could not be
maintained from Union gap parallel
with the n. p to this city.
Throwing the North Coast to We
mas avenue would take 1t out OF the
warehouse district two blocks farther
to the west. This would place the
control of large part of the business
in the hands of the Y. T.. and this is
what the North Coast wants-busi-
ness.
Another important statement made
by witnesses In the case Monday after.
noon was that the Northern Pacific
would fight and prevent, If possible.
the building of any road into the
Yakima valley. which It claims as its
own. Mr.. Pitman, Il. M. Dean and
G. f. Woods testified that about two
years ago Third Vice President Levy
of the n. p, said that the Yakima
valley was the n. .P.'s territory and
that his company would oppose the
building of any other road into It.
He also said, they testified, that the
N. r. would not make traffic ar
rangements with any Independent
road and II another road was built
the N. p. would build 1t. Mr.. Dear
said that Mr.. Levy said that II an in
dependent line was ever built here 'it
would have to beat the N. p. to IT,
Yakima Republic.

Hone to End Fuel Famine.

Four carloads Of coal arrived In the
city for the fuel companies yesterday
and It is expected that two or three
carloads will arrive today, says the
Lewiston Tribune. Lewiston has been
particularly fortunate in being able to
secure coal enough to prevent any
suffering, although the scant supply
has caused the citizens to confine
themselves to burning just what is
necessary for comfort. General Agent
Jordan OF the Northern Pacific, says
that the fuel situation is much more
hopeful than 1t was 10 days ago. The
