THE CANAL BIDS.
The Reciprocity String Of Bidders and
BOndsmeu.

The bidding for the canal improvement pre-
sented at the Mayors office yesterday is the
subject of considerable talk to-day, and the
wide range Of the bids strikes the uninitiated in

rising scale, In which the bidders and bondsmen
changed places at each turn OF the kaleidoscope.
10 IL needless to say that the lowest bid was less
than half what practical responsible men would
undertake to do the work for, and il would seem
probable that the old game of selling out to the
ne1I highest bidders was CONTEMPLATED by some
OF the parties bidding Yesterday
The commission will probably have a meeting
AZ soon as Secretary Delano can find time TO

tract.
