If it was the proper thing at that

It now? Why doesn't the Capital

At the time the contract was belng

member of the board, figured on the
building and stated IL he could make
any money he would resign from the
board and make bid for the contract.
The least he could build II for was
$i39 100000 so he stated, and the State
Capital will not say tnat Mr., Swank
is not good contractor and able to

glowingly of Swank.

the lawyer that she lived here and he

Mrs Baker produced the decree OF

BUILD Big SHOPS
in SPOKANE
Means That Occur d'AIene and That
City VIII be on Main
Line.


SPOKANE, Wash. May 26.--That
the Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget
Sound railroad, seeking entrance in
to Spokane for it's main line, has g
quired strip of property almost two
miles long and about 500 feet wide
east from the city limits, and has
plans drawn for one of the most ex-
tensive railroad yards between the
coast and the Twin Cities developed
yesterday.
While 1t has been known that me-
gotiations for this property have
been under way for some time and
several Of the transfers, including
the Finch property, for which $780,
900 was paid for 20 acres, have been
made public it was not known defin-
itely that the company had conclud
ed purchases for sufficient property
to give it adequate yard, shop and
warehouse sites east of Spokane to
Dishman.
With this large acquisition, which
means more than 100000, Il also
is learned that the site for the depot
in Occur dAlene has been purehas-
ed and that improvement work on
the same win start at once. The de-
pot in Occur d'Alene will be directly
opposite the Idaho hotel, on a site
large enough for a depot and both
passenger and freight traffic docks.
The Milwaukee tracks will be laid
so as to connect with the Blackwell
lines and to give service especially
to the sawmills.
The property just east of the Spo-
kane city limits, extending to Gar
field, will be used for refrigerator
storage tracks, mammoth car and
machine shops, roundhouse, distribut-
ing yards and warehouse. This much
has been settled definitely, according
to plans made public yesterday
What the cost of the shops and yard
improvements will be can not be
learned, more than that it will run
into the millions.
Although the railroad is known to
have acquired considerable property
by direct purchase and condemnation
inside the city limits. west from Ha-
Tana street, the property has not
been definitely described. The pur-
chasing agents for the railroad, how
ever. have secured options of direct
ownership on much of the property
just north of the o. r. & n. tracks
and south of the alley between RiY-
erside avenue and Main avenue.
These purchases have been at vari-
Gus figures and are talked among To-
cal realty dealers as having been
from $500 to $500 lot. In other
instances where the road has bought
entire blocks have been secured un-
der option for from $4,000 TO $1,000
block. Some are bound at higher
and some at lower figures.
