AT ETTRAXCE TO MRTUXI1 HOTEI- aT r-.viK SOi.lS PHKX, F. will come to Portland from these four enterprising Idaho cities. Lewlston already has engaged a special train. It Is probable that two additional specials will be required to carry, the representatives of th three other cities. ' The four bsnds will be attired In similar regalia, while the four lodges will have uniforms alike. The floats, however, will be typical of th several cities represented, that of Moscow rep resenting farming. Wallace the mining Industry. Coeur d'Alene the timber In dustry, and Lewlston the livestock In dustry. Th O.-W. R. N. Co, haa Just closed arrangements to operate a spe cial train from La Grands as well aa from Baker. It was first thought that one train would be sufficient to ac commodate both these lodges, but the demand for reservations haa been suf ficient to fill a train from each place. Each train will consist of ten Tull msns and a baggage car. Each city will have a band. One Pullman will start from Joseph and will carry the Wallowa Elks to La Grande, where they will Join the herd from that city.

Robert Wakefield yesterday morning filed with th city Auditor and Mayor claims against th clty-tn full for con struction of Mount Tabor reservoirs Kos. i and (. aggregating $874,162. of which th city haa paid him 1459,421. leaving a balance of 1414.421. Included In this Is a claim for $114,021 for ex tras. It Is probable th Water Board will refuae to pay at least a large por tion, alleging failure of the contractor to fulfill Ms contract on time, and that the case therefor will be taken Into court. Robert Wakefield recently filed with Mayor Rushlight a detailed statement of his side of the reservoir controversy, blaming Chief Engineer Clarke, of the Water Board, for the long delays In the completion of both big basins at Mount Tabor, and explaining why he had not finished th work on time. He said, in effect, that he was hampered by the city at the outset, and that Indefinite orders and constant delays on the part of th engineering department caused nearly all the trouble. Mr. Wakefield has always laid a good deal of stress on the fact that the city haa Buffered no damage because of the Incompletlon of th two reservoirs, aa he cltea that tha city's conduit from Bull Run Hlvar, carrying the Increased supply of water, was not ready for us and that, had tha reservoirs been fin ished on tl.ue. they could not have served any good purpose, there being no water to put In them. On the other band, th city can show by th contract that it offered a bonus to th contractor to complete th work ahead of contract time; that he did not complete It In time to avail himself of th bonus and that he laid himself lia ble to th penaltlea prescribed In his oontract thereby. It la clear, however, that Wakefield la laying a foundation for collection of tha entire amount of his contract, plua extras said to have been called for by Chief Engineer Clarke after the orig inal contract was signed, and that he will endeavor to shift th blam for th delays In construction on to tha shoulders of Clarke when the case is taken up In court. The Water Board served notice on Mr. Wakefield long before the expiration of hl contract that It would bold him strictly to th letter of th contrsct. having offered him a bonua for earlier completion, and that tha full penaltlea provided would bo levied In case of de lays for which ha waa to blame.
