A statement has reached us of the proceedings of a
German Railway Company in effecting a contract for rail-
road iron, which requires immediate publicity to put the
tride in this country on their guard against the possibility
of its repetition. It appears that the company in question
requested tenders for 8,000 tons of railway iron, and in con-
sequence, received tenders from three parties in England at
the respective prices of 101. 10s., 10/. 55., and lOL per ton
;let faith, as is the pra,•tice with us, of the parties being
the
czatsrituated as competitos. Instead of this, however,

agent of another made use of their lowest offer to induce the
to poa,rtthyoto reduce the amount of his tender
by 7s. 6d. per

agreement. It is evident that,

on their adroitness. The injury
