A RING FOREsHADOwED.

THE ASSISTANT ALDERMEN AT CRoss-PURPosEs.
There is alleged to be a plan on foot to form
Ring IN the Board Of Assistant Aldermen in much the
same way as the in the Board of Aldermen was
organized that the dismissal Of clerks by Mr. Mo
oney and tho appointment of others are parts OF the
scheme The majority in the Board now consists OF nine
Republicans and two Democrats. 1t is suggested that
if the two Democrats, Messrs Heating and Murphy go
over to the opposition, the tables will be turned The
coalition has been definitely formed but strong III
ucemeuts have been held ont and the members OF the
opposition claim that they have assurances that they
will succeed. 1t Ia even asserted that the
Board we're directed by Mr. Mooney in pursuance OF the
scheme that has been devised In support OF TINS the-
ory t is urged that of the clerks who has been
moved is a son Of Assistant Alderman Beyea, one OF
the Republican members. 1t Is asserted hat When ne
boards of Aldermen and Assistant Aldermen meet IN
September an attempt will be made TO secure the com
pete reorganization of both Boards Presidents vance
and Wade deposed and Democrats chosen the
committees will be reOrganzed. the Republican clerks

TIE CONTROLLER CHARGES MIR. VAN MORT WITH
MAKING wAsTEFUL CONTRACTS.
The Controller has Just made public a long
communication on the subject OF estimates for street
paving which he sent TO the Mayor last May 1t relates
TO the contracts for paving with stone blocks South
Ffhavc from Canal to Fourthst.. and Churchst from
Fnlton to Morrs-st, which made by Commissioner
Van Mort VITA Charles Gudet, June 49, 1872 as Mr.
Green asserts without advertisement competitive
bids and at rate so per cent higher than the market
value of the work. The cost Of these works was as fol-
lows: South Flh-ave s9 $50 49, Churohst, S65 2G1 o.
total 5sIO 81 The Controller claims that the excess
OF cost above fair value s72s 49, s3o52O 50 the
South Fifthave. Improvement, and SH,io7 60 on the
Chureh-st contract The pavement cost Sc per square
yard and the bridge g. per square FOOT 81 and
81 g. respectively, would have been fair allow
ances, according TO the Controller. Samuel T.
Richards Of NO. IS Parkerst., Newark, states
IN an affidavit that IS sent 10 the Mayor that Samuel
Barber, contractor is laying pavement In Broadst,
Newark similar to that in South Fhaye. for So 10 per
square yard and bridge stones could be furnished II
wanted FOR IS cents per SQUIRE foot. Amos F. Emo,
propertyowner on South Fifthave.. airms in afi-
davt that early in 1871 Charles Guidet informed him
that he wond lay a pavement similar 70 the one In
Broadway between Fourteenth-st. and Bowling-green
for s. per square yard and that the property
owners in their petition fixed the limit OF
the cost at that price. The Controller adds that
contract Tor paving MOuht 1TOspeCtGNe' Ne"dIhs WIN
stone blocks OF the kind as those used in South
Flth-ave was awarded at 81 per square yard; and
taat MIR Gudet made bid OF 81 OF for the same work.
Reference is also made TO decision Of Judge Benedict
IN the Hcnry-st. Brooklyn, pavement suit, in which
Gudets price sad exceed "by 81 per cent the price
of which others have offered to lay down the pavement
called for by the specifications in question" The Con-
troller concludes his letter thus:
The laws under which the contract for these pave
mems were entered into by the Department OF Public
works provide that the work NAV be done by days
work OF by contract. but when contract Is MADE II
should be entered into in the usual way only with the
lowest bidder after due public advertisement and con
alteration OF tbs bids If 1t is claimed that the law au
tborzos in this departure from the customary
method OF letting work publicly 1t would seem that or
dlnary prudence would forbid the letting OF Work at
pItce LARGELY exceeding its fair value.
