satisfied with the report J. B.
Straus made (Straus condemned
the bridge.) 1t has confidence in
the old Bihler report (Which favor
ed the bridge) OF course the mid
die span on Howard st. fell down
after .Bihler had reported favorably,
but any expert may expect that at
times ne may be wrong. / don't
believe the Monroe st. structure is
safe and we should have either a
new bridge of repaired one, and
this man Waddell will certainly
know which to recommend
Seymour H. Knight, the expert
engaged to superintend construc-
ton on the Washington and How
ard st. new bridges, was called in
to the conference. The mayor said
he would have no objection to
Knight exporting the bridge be-
cause he had secured him on the
recommendation of many bridge
companies all of whom said he
was absolutely reliable and expe-
rienced both practically and tech
nically.
"Is it true that the w. w. has re-
fused to bear any part of the ex-
pense of new bridge over Mon
roe st. and what effect does 1t
have?"
Just this" was the reply, that
100000 to be raised by bond is
sue will never cover the expense
for which it was intended. 1t has
been estimated that a new bridge
on Monroe ST., such as desired,
will cost about 100000. With the
estimates for the other bridges and
the $4,000 for viaduct ON Divi-
sion st. there will not be money
enough unless companies profiting
bear a portion of the expense"
The mayor admitted that since
the w. w. P. has refused to carry
its share of expense city officials
are in quandry as to just what
should be done, or whether the
company can be forced to pay. He
said that when he interviewed the
w. w. p. officials they told him
that the city had granted fran
chise over the bridge and it was
the city's duty to keep bridge
there and also to keep it in repair.
The mayor was emphatic regard
ing his attitude on the question of
the use of the 100000, and said
that although the ordinance au-
thorizing the raising of the money
did not specify for what particular
bridge building it was intended, it
was the understanding and inten-
ton OF the council to use it accord
ing to the estimates which included
Monroe st, bridge. bridges on
Washington and Howard SITS. and
the Division ST. viaduct.
People mostly interested in the
Monroe st. bridge object to the
building Of a viaduct ON Division
St, claiming that a viaduct Is not
bridge. and the mayor says they
fear that should $4,000 be expend-

BIG HEATHEN RODENTS THAT
BRING THE BUBONlC PLAGUE
ARE BEGINNING TO APPEAR
IN SPOKANE.

The board Of health will offer a
bounty for rats-the big, voracious
rats that during the past few
weeks have begun to come into
town in droves. Yesterday a small
boy killed nine. These rats, once
they gain a hold upon a community,
are the worst kind of pest and dis
ease carriers. They multiply at a
great rate and single family of
them in one year will infest an en-
tire community.
Spokane in the past has been re-
markably free from them OF late,
though, the increase has become
alarming, SO much SO in fact that
repeated complaints Of too much
rat have been made to the health
board. A meeting will be held
within the next few days and de-
voted entirely to rat. These rodents
carry the bubonic plague and in
San Francisco during the pre-
valence of the plague physicians at
tributed the spread of it to the rats.
Health Officer Grieve this morn
ing said:
Il believe these rats come to the
northwest on the ships from San

FAKE DOCTOR
FOUND GUILTY

The jury in Judge Huneke's court
this morning brought in a verdict
of guilty against w. F. Grover, the
fake" doctor who pretends to cure
all ailments by rubbing the pa
tents on the back. He was ac-
cused Of practicing medicine with.
out license. The Spokane Medical
society contended that the giving
of drugs or internal remedies, or
the use of the knife, was not es-
sential to the practice of medicine
or surgery.
Grover was one of the heavy adj
vertisers In the Spokesman-Review
and Chronicle. Manager Hooker,
of the latter paper, was called upon
to show the company books to
prove that Grover had advertised
himself as a DIR" and made guar
antees of miraculous cures by his
massage treatment. Hooker's ig-
norance, as usual, was fully as
miraculous as the cures.

C|TYENG|NEER'S
PREDICTION

II predict that J. A. l.. Waddell's
report on the Monroe st. bridge will
be to the effect that it is unsafe
and should be torn down." says
City Engineer Charles Mcintyre.
City Engineer Mcintyre stated
that it would be all right to hire
Waddell merely as an expert, but
not as to which material, steel or
concrete, would prove the best, for
the reason that Waddell, being alto
gether a steel man, would naturally
recommend steel and also recon-
mend that he make the plans. He
is a specialist in steel, and, there
fore, would be prejudiced.
J. B. Straus, the engineer who
exported the structure, Mcintyre
says, stated that a steel structure
there would not be the proper
thing on account of the proximity
of the falls, and the spray and ice
in winter, which weakens the steel.
