local FIND NEAR SPOKANE
Accidenuy Discovered Two Weeks
Ago by Worknen

SPOKANE, May 25.-Coal has been
discovered in the town of Hillyard.
The big well being sunk to supply
Hillyard with water, has cut through
IS incnes of clean coal that burns well
and gives promise of being a big thing
for the finders.
The Hillyard Water company has
been sinking a we'll at the corner of
Twentieth and Martha streets. At a
depth of $50 feet the workmen found
they had encountered coal. There
proved to be IS inches of the fuel, and
the management then began prospect
ing on the vein, which dips at an an
gle of As degrees between walls of
slate.
The prospecting shows the vein to
be true. The coal was tested and found
to burn well, but it leaves clinker,
as most surface coal does.
The find was made two weeks ago,
but the discoverer kept the find a Sc
cret till enough work could be done to
show a real coal vein to be there. The
well has been driven farther and water
secured, but the pumps have not been
put in, as the company is anxious to
find out more about the coal deposit
The Hillyard Water company, which
made the discovery, owns only hall
block of land in the vicinity of the
well. The rest of an so acre tract OF
land is owned by the Spokane Subur-
ban company, in which Arthur d
| Jones is the principal owner.

ITO cut off so miles between Spo-

THE road will go down the Palouse
river after leaving Ritzville and will
cross the Snake river near the
mouth of the Palouse, coming direct
from there to Walla Walla.''
The North Coast engineers are said
by Mr.. Strahorn to be al work on three
lines in the eastern part of the state
the surveys of which are nearly COM
pleted The main line will cross the
Columbia rivers at RingOld bar and is
planned to be practically an air line

METZ OPPOSED TO SITE.
Thinks Courthouse in Union Square
Would Cost $50. 900. 900.

Controller Metz declared yesterday his opposi-
ton to the site for the proposed new courthouse
chosen by the Courthouse Commission after
about three years study of the problem. The
commission decided in favor of the cast side OF
Union Square, between 18th and nth streets
the ground to cost about S9O00OOO Controller
Metz and some Of his engineers have been look
ing at the site.
Tam unaIterabIy opposed to the Union Square
Site" said he last night. because Of the proba-
bility that 1t VIII cost the city about $2OO00O0O
before its courthouse is built. If go there.
When the proposition comes up again in the
Board OF Estimate and Appointment l shall
vote against Union Square site. The COM
mission estimates that the three block frontage
In Union Square Will cost about $9.00O.0OO. From
what we know In the finance department about
the cost Of condemning property for city pur-
poses IT will cost much more than that. The
men Interested in building the courthouse de-
mand building in accord with tho costliness OF
the site and this means that before We are done
we will have paid more than $20.000,00O for the
courthouse. 1 feel that the city cannot afford TO
spend that amount now"
What site do you favor?' he asked.
"I am heartily IN favor of the Stewart Build
ing site. It would not begin to cost as much as
the site at Union Square. If we take the ground
10 the westward OF the Hall of Records, reaching
to Broadway, and build good sized building on
It we shall have good accommodations for the
courts and II constructed architectural lines
in harmony with the Hall Of Records 1t would
centre the city's great buildings around City
Hall Park. The cty's business ought TO be con-
centrated right there Cor reas sons of convenience
If we make civic centre at Union Square
then other portions of the city will demand other
public buildings for other localities and the re-
suit will be that they will be scattered all over
the town"
THE reasons given by the commission do not
convince your" Mr.. Metz asked.
They do not" said the Controller. THE city
has need Of It's funds for scores Of other pur-
poses We need subways. sewers water supply
pavements and the like. Putting $4,000 600 into
a new courthouse is not warranted. If go TO
Union Square at all, let us put the new build
ing in the msfle Of the park there. and do away
with a few hundred of the buns and panhan-
dlers who make the park benches a loungng
place. There would stil be room left for the
women and children who go there
The Mayor has not expressed an opinion on
the proposed Union Square site. On general
principles 1t is known that he is opposed to a
courthouse Of the size proposed In the report
believing that the city needs to economic for
other purposes and that 1t cannot afford TO
spend $20,O0O,0O0 for a courthouse 1t was
learned yesterday that he would prefer the
taking Of two blocks to three, and he is not In
favor Of going TO Union Square at all, unless IL
be demonstrated that the city can get the
land needed on reasonable terms.
