he said today that he might make some

money than we have ever had. The gov

approves and the power OF the treasury

approval of the house. The conference
report was read and after the reading

that tomorrow, after routine business, he

the length Of time that may be required

democratic senators spent much of the

with reference to the BILL and decided upon
a conference to be held tomorrow at 10

pany was assessed only 1915 for

From now until the end of the

Is to pay $3.50. In other words,

BAD ERROR
ON SEWER

A mistake that has stopped work
on the big trunk sewer in Liberty
park and is likely to add consider
able to the cost, has been made by
the city engineers Office.
Off Fifth av. the sewer line was
laid out and the trench has been
dug the length of a lot belonging
to Arthur D. Jones on the presump-
ton that the lot was part of the
street. The lot is valued at $4,000.
The engineers ONCE proceeded
on the theory that the lot had been
dedicated as a part of the street,
but appears to have neglected to
make certain before starting the
excavation
Mr.. Jones discovered the mistake
and had his engineer resurvey the
lot. AS a result the job is tied up
until settlement can be reached.
City Engineer Ralsten expects only
a short delay. The blame is laid
to carelessness in not having the
lot dedicated a year or SO back. AS
1t is now the city pays the bill Mr..
Jones presents.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1908-07-11

The Spok esman-Review explains
that Chas. Wolf, head of the White
City Co., has entered into an agree
INIT with the water department to
pay double rates for using water to
sprinkle the White City grounds
eight hours daily 1t is difficult
to figure how this rate has been
fixed. Commissioner O'Brien fig.
ured some weeks ago that II the
White City was on a meter rate
the cost for water at Is cents per
1000 gallons would amount to $3.50
month as Wolf was working
about 10 sprinklers then. Wolf
had asked for free water saying
that the White City was to be
public pleasure resort. The water
department didn't agree to give
him free water.
When O'Brien told him what he
would pay on a meter basis, Wolf
stamped out of the Office declaring
that he would dig a well and get
his own water first. But there are
mysterious ways of doing things
around the city hall. A few days
ago 1t was necessary for the city
to send an inspector out to the
White City grounds and shut the
water OFF because Wolf had not
paid any water rent. For this
the White City was fined $3.50.
The water connection there was

NEW CONCRETE
BRIDGE PLAN

Mayor Moore has prepared q
communication recommending con.
crete for bridge material in prefer
ence to steel which will be sub.
mitted to the city council at it's
next meeting. The mayor says that
the first cost of concrete Is not to
be considered hut that the council
should consider the cost Of main
tenance.
City Engineer Ralston has pre-
pared new plan for concrete
structure on Mission av. The cost
will probably be 100000. There
is no rock bottom in the river on
Mission and it will be necessary to
drive piles and cap them with con-
crete for the foundation. The plan
is for five spans, SO feet in the cen
ter and 60-foot and 50-foot spans
on each side of the main arch. The
roadway will be perceptibly arched.
