WOULD RECOMMEND NEITHER.

He was not prepared to recommend
either method though, and had reached
the conclusion that while both methods
had merit, it would be best to continue
here on the plans as started, to prevent a
combination of methods.
After the reading OF the report Moran
piled that the engineer had gotten rather
mixed on the buildings, after which the
matter was passed.

AND SO IT ENDS.
The Joint Building viii Be Fire
PROCEED as Originally Proposed.
City Engineer Doremus Reports That he
Examined Two Systems, but VIII
Recommend Neither

At the council last evening G. E.
Stanton, secretary OF the joint city and
county building committee, sent in a
communication stating that Mr.. Doremus
had appeared before the committee and
made statement with reference to the
methods of fire PROBING which he had
seen while on his trip to the coast. Ac-
eompanying the communication was the
statement of Mr.. Doremus.
MIR. DoREMUs' REPORT.
The gentleman stated that the methods
which he generally found was that OF
iron beams and terra Gotta thing similar
to the plans proposed here. The princi-
pal buildings which he saw constructed
upon this plan We're the OreqoninH and
chamber of commerce building at Port
land, Or, the Mills, Chronicle, Mu-
tual Life and Croker buildings
in San Francisco and the court
under the ordinary plan OF freproof con-
struction, OF iron beams and terra Gotta
thing, the partitions being also OF terra
Gotta thing, instead of brick work. In
the better buildings the brick walls were
yeneered with terra Gotta lining on the
inside, to prevent the sweating of the
walls by the air spaces formed by the use
"a dOllOW blllHSs
THE RANsoME METHOD.
He also examined the "Ransome''
method, the distinguishing feature of
which is the use of tressled iron rods,
embodied in concrete, which forms the
floor beams and floor, in place of the iron
beams and terra Gotta arching used in the
other method. The buildings examined
upon this plan were the Academy of
Natural Sciences at San Francisco, the
Stanford university at Palo Alto, and the
borax works at Alameda, Cal.
DIFFERENCE IN COST.
Mr.. Doremus was then questioned by
the mayor and stated that the Ransome
method was used in fewer cases than any
of the others, and that steel and iron
beams are used in the other methods the
same as figured upon in our building.
The Ransome method was the least expen-
Sive of the two, but he couldn't state pos
itively, as the prices for material differed
between here and San Francisco. In an
sWer to Mr.. Morris, however, he thought
it would be % per cent. cheaper.
In relation to the figures given by the
Ransome people, Mr.. Doremus stated
that they gave him none based upon the
cost of material mere, but based his esti-
mate on the cost OF material on the coast,
where cement can be purchased for half
what it would cost here.
The only weight in load which he saw
in any Ransome floor was at the Borax
works, but he did not know how much it
was. Supposed it would be about 300
pounds to the square foot. He had not
heard of the heavy test that had
been stood by an eighteen foot span
IN San Francisco, as stated by an agent Of
the Ransom method. Mr.. LoofbouroW
had refreshed his memory, however; he
recollected that he had seen certain arches
that had stood fair test. In answer to
Mr.. Bell he stated that the ceiling Of one
fireprooting had nothing to do with it.

AN IRON WORKS PROTEST.

GENTLEMEN-We hereby protest against the
awarding of the iron contract for the new city
Jail for the following reasons: There were
two bids for iron works, one at s4 200, and the
other at S24 400. and a comparison OF the specl-
fcations accompanying these bids clearly
demonstrates that fair competition cannot be
had under the architects plans and specffica-
tions. and thai the firms who submitted the
two proposals were bidding on an entirely diff
ferent class Of work and material. When our
agent called at the architects Office for plans
and specifications, the architect asked him : to
figure it down very low so as to get the building
under the amount OF appropriation, S25 200, TO
figure cheap material as he would be The superln-
tendent and anything would go" The refusal of
the Psuly Jail company to BID, ana the absence
OF bids from other prominent jail building
Arms, Is sufficient evidence that the plans and
specifications we're to them unsatisfactory.
Trusting that your honorable body viii give
this matter your attention, We are, respectfully,

Wendell Phillips Power.

The writer heard Wendell Phillips
once on the nobility Of the North Aneri-
can Indians, and while the spell Of the
speech lasted he was almost ashamed Of
himself for being white instead Of cop
per colored. One secret Of the power Of
Phillips with an audience was that he
was always definite. certain in his state
nlents and position. If he had privately
doubts about Il course OF a policy, he
never exhibited them when on the plat
form. He very we'll knew that there is
nothing ali audience likes so little in a
speaker as indecision and beating about
the bush. There was no haziness in
what he said. His subject stood out be-
fore his hearers as clearly cut as a cameo.

The Minister Agreed.

During the war an Ohio minister was
on his way south as an emissary of the
Christian commission, and he boarded
an Ohio river boat at Portsmouth. At
the first landing below, the mate turned
loose at the deckhands. He cursed
their eyes, their hearts, their lubbery
feet, their laziness, their whole line of
ancestry from Adam to that hour. Final
ly, exhausted with profanity, he turned
to the shocked minister with the query:
Don't this beat help
