THE BIG GUN CONTRACT.
1t VII Probably Go to ths Bsthishem
lion Works.

WAsnIsGToN, July 2l The war depart
uent has not yet awarded the contract for
100 high-power breech loading riflad guns,
for which bids were opened Monday, and
no action will be taken until after the meet
ing Of the board of ordnance and fortifics.
iioo next week. /, is generally believed
that the contract will go to the Bethlehem
Iron Wo ks a. .he highest OF their five bids,
as this provides for the most speedy delivery
of III, guns
II they are given this contract they will
be justified in putting in very extensive
gun-rpskIrg plant, and it is the acquisition
Of this plant that will delay them at the
outset. There is no private establishment
In the couotry prepared to do ihs work any
more promptly than the Bethlehem Works.
and the great advantage the navy gained
over the army by gettit g an carly start in
ordnance construction is shown by the fact
that while the army ordnance factory
st Watervliet is only beeinning operations
and this large contract must be let to a
private firm. the navy gun factory AT Wash
ington could not only keep up with the de-
mands of the new navy for guns, but they
could undertake to turn out this big army
contract MS soon as the Bethlehem Works
will do it.
There is also strong argument for the
practical tivil services reform syetem that
has been in force In the Washington ord
nance factory for some years past in ,he
fact that the work could be done there at
from 25 to 80 per cent. less cost than the
Bethlehem bid.
