THE BIDS WERE TOO HIGH.
Lieut.. Carter Explains Why the River
Dredging Has Not Begun.

Dredging Has Not Begun.
Editor Morning Nelcs: An appropriation
has been made for harbor work. 1t is presum-
ably available and yet no steps have been
taken, it would seem, for pushing on the work
and ships that should be able to come and 90
readily are delayed and stranded on local sand
banks " hich could, and one would say should
have been removed ere now Why is it,
wonder? Can any one teLli
SHIP AGENT
Lieut.. o. M. Carter, in charge of the
river and harbor improvements here, was
shown the above last night. He said that
the statement that no steps have been taken
toward pushing the WORK is untrue. 1.-The
work" he said was advertised, and bids
for dredging were opened Oct Is. All of
the bids were found unreaSonably
high, and they were rejected. The
work has been re-advertised and bids will
again be opened Nov. TO- when 1t is hoped
that they will be found more reasonable"
Lieut.. Carter said that had not the
bids been extravagant the work could have
been in progress now. at is very much to be
regretted, The said, that the dredging is not
DOW being carried on. but circumstances
which are beyond the control of the gov
eminent have prevented it. Ship Agent
does not seem to be aware that it is not the
practice of the government to go into open
market. but it allows people who desire to
compete for the work an opportunity to
send in their prices"
Lieut.. Carter said that the lowest bid re-
ceived on Oct. 10 for dredgings was 1914
cents per cubic yard. This, he SAID, is an
exorbitant price, and the contract was not
let. Should the bids be no more reasona-
BILE at the next opening-Nov. 10-the work
will not then be let, and the Improvement
will be delayed until reasonable bids are
obtained. Lieut.. Carter said the whole
matter hinges upon the bids, and until low
bids are received there is no telling when
the work will begin.

THE German emperor was bumptious and
overbearing child, and never endured being
beaten in any game. If he could not get his
own way he would first sulk and then try and
take advantage Of his position as ''royal
child" But this was never allowed. The rule
in the nursery was strict equality, and the
nurses had strict orders to enforce it. He had
a cold proud manner, which made him anything
but popular with the other playmates. 1t was
quite the re'e SO with Prince Henry and the
little Princess sophie, who were beloved by all.

studies there about five years ago, but has since
been rector Of the Episcopal Church at Fern
