According to the Observation-Disclosures
by City Clerk Haney and published in
1.-THE official paper of the city.' p. m.
yesterday was the time set for opening
the bids for the purchase of the garbage
crematory erected by the Minneapolis
health department at a cost of $1,000.
The city rents the ground upon which
the building stands Oh Hennepin il
and. and there is already bill against
the city for $3.50 ground rent. AS the
cremat0ry has been closed for some
time, the council directed the COM
mittee on public grounds and build
ings to sell the crematory at once.
When the city clerk walked into the
council chamber at the appointed hour
there were present, besides the mem
bers of the committee, Health Officer
KilvingtOn and several reporters. With
due formality the clerk announced that
he had only received one bid, and that
was from George &. Anderson. who
offered to give $50 for the entire outfit.
why, there's 10000 brick in it, and
the stack cost $500, +" exclaimed the health
officer. Then he roasted the council for
their pigheadedness In trying to dispose
of his pet in the way they had. 1--WE
will have to come back to the crematorv
yet" exclaimed the commissioner. 1T
was abandoned just to suit the con-
veuience of some schemers. Here you've
got an offer of $3.50 for plant that cost
$1,000. Why, the old iron in it is worth
more than that"
The committee were about to reject
the bid, when Mr.. Anderson entered the
room and said: 81 have just come from
the crematory, and l want to withdraw
my bid. l don't think it is worth that
much money to me-" 1t is probable
that the building will be turned over to
the workhouse, as Supt. West says they
can use almost everything there is in it,
and he can remove it without any cost
to the city.

BUILDING ORDINANCES.
Now the Master Plumbers Want
to Revise Them.

The Minneapolis building ordinances
will probably receive thorough over
hauling at the meeting of the special
committee appointed at the last meet
ing of the council to recommend what
ever changes, in the judgment of the
committee, are necessary. The COM
mittee is composed of Aid. Hunter
(chairman), Love, Gilman, Lowell and
Barrows, Architects w. C. Whitney, F.
q. Corser and +. q. Long, Builders
Charles Morse, George Libby and
B. Cooper, Building Inspector J. NJ.
Hazen and City Attorney r. ID. Russell.
As each member of the committee has
one vote in the proceedings it is proba-
bic that the architects and builders will
frame the ordinance to suit themselves.
Chairman Hunter has called his CON-
mittee for 10 o'clock this morning, and
as several of the councilmen have de-
cided views upon the changes which
have been proposed, especially in re-
gard to fire escapes, and as the archi-
tects and builders have not yet agreed
upon exactly what changes they want,
there promises to be lively time at the
meeting.
The master plumbers, who are
considerably interested in the build
low the chance to complain of
certain evils affecting them to pass by
without making at least a vigorous eff
fort to have the evils remedied. There
was big meeting of master plumbers
hello in Odd Fellows hall yesterday aft
ernoon. and the subject was thoroughly
discussed. Only two of the plumbers
who are licensed to carry on business in
Minneapolis were absent or not repre-
scented. The plumbers say that while it
is not their intention to ask that the
present ordinances be entirely repealed,
there are several notifications which
will prove benefit, not only to their
craft, but also to their customers. One
thing they complain of is the amount of
red tape necessary before a permit
can be made. First a permit must be
obtained from the building inspector,
and no part of the work can be done
until the permit is issued; then the
plumber must go to the water depart
aud get a permit from the registra to
tap the main. A permit must also be
secured from the city engineer to tear
up the street, and deposit must be
made with the city treasurer to guaran-
tee the repaving. After the permits
have been secured and the streets torn
up, man from the water department
has to be called to tap the water main,
for the licensed plumber is not allowed
to make the connection. After the
work is completed, the inspector
of plumbing must look over
the work to see that it is
properly done, and the plumber or one
of his men who was engaged on the
work must remain there until the in
spector arrives. As there is only one
Inspector of plumbing and only one
''tapper," the plumbers claim that they
are put TO considerable inconvenience
and sometimes loss. Besides this, they
are opposed to going through so much
red tape. which takes valuable time, be-
fore they can secure the necessary per-
mits. They want one permit to answer
and the force of inspectors and tappers
at least doubled.

QUITE ALARGE KICK.
President Lowry Did Not Give til

President Lowry Did Not Give the
Contract to Local Concern.
President Lowry is just now being
vigorously roasted, and from the face of
things with some reason, for giving a
contract for 12O cars to the Laclede
Car company of ST. LOUIS. The Robin
son-Moon Car company is local in
dustry which came to Minneapolis
only after fiattering offers of local
support. 1t is alleged that the Mime
apoliS Street Railway company agreed
to give the local concern all its work.
If this promise was ever made it GER
tainly has not been kept. and the per-
sons who worked hardest to secure this
industry for Minneapolis, when it had
almost decided to go to Chicago, are
very warm under the neckband because
of LoWry'S action. 1t is claimed that
in the East, from which section the Rob-
insOn-MoOn company recently received
a few orders, rival firms are urging that
the company is not supported at home,
and therefore must be Snide concern.
Naturally, this does the Robinson Moon
company no good. 1t is believed by
those who have taken the most interest
in Minneapolis latest addition to the
manufacturing interests that the Rob-
insOn-Moon company may leave the city
because of the contract going outside.
Lowry is not in the city, but the street
railway company claim that there has
been no breach of contract
