would be bound to accept any portion OF
the issue awarded them by the council.
He objected TO the proviso OF Blair q Co.
reouiring the city to issue the water bonds
dated April 1, instead Of July l, when
wouid mean a loss to the city OF over
81 500. He advised the council not to take
hasty action.
DR.. KIoeber said the proposition had
been mt before the auditing committee
after the bids had been opened; this the
committee thought unfair TO the others.
II was the unanimous opinion of the au-
diting committee that the interests OF the
civ would be best served by accepting
RIair's bid. He said the city was IN
honor bound to stand by the announce
meut that bids would be opened at
o'clock. and that after the hands of the
bidders had been shown, it would not be
honorable to give others chance 20 come
in. He denied that the change in date
would cost the city anything for interest.
G. W. T. Riley addressed the council but
admitted that Blair had put in higher
bid
Delegate Ryan called for the reading OF
the board Of aldermen joint resolution No.
107.
Mr.. Barrall said the scheme of Lam
precht was a sharp one but sharp schemes
are best left alone. Blair & Co. had drawn
their bid in accordance with the request
for q business-like offer for the whole
issue. Two firms in different parts of the
United States had put in bids so devised
as to be lighters" that is, TO beat off
others. He had asked that the date be
changed so that it might be in accordance
with the election.
Corporation Counsel Donworth in reply
to questions said the bid of Lamprecht
was. in his opinion, cumulative and could
not be segregated. He thought the firm
might, if 1t wished, repudiate the appor-
tionment of part only.
Z. +. Blaine, for Trounce, showed the
object in calling for the resolution by de-
claring that there had. been a change in
a date in the resolution. 1t was found
that the change had been made in the
original document.
Delegate Coryell moved to postpone
action for a week. This was suggested by
a remark of Mr.. Donworth that the
supreme court had not vet passed upon
the question upon which the validity OF
the houses proceedings turned.
Alderman Daulton asked that Blair's
representative be required to place with
the city clerk another $4,000; but, on 4
point of order by Mr.. Kloeber, it was ruled
out.
Frank NJ. Van 1uyl, of Dexter Horton
d Co., by permission. said as there was
some doubt about the validity of the bids,
he offered to take the whole issue of
81, 265 900 at $4,000 commission.
Delegate Drew thought they should
postpone action until Wednesday.
The question was then put as to adopt
ing the report, with the following result !:
Ayes-Brewer, Daulton, Jordan, Miller, CALI
gan, Coryell, Criehton. Sweeney, Kloeber-a.
Noes-crar, Carl, Ingram, Brace. Cook. Drew,

and the council adiourned. "A number. Of
