Two Close Bids.

At the Office OF the commissioner of
public works this morning it was said
the contract for the new Pettaco nsett
pumping engine had not been awarded
yet and probably would not be for a
couple Of days.
IL is understood, however, that two OF
the bids are very close and that the
only question now TO be decided is
which engine will be the better
in the matter of construction.
Both the commissioner aud the
city engineer are taking great pains
in this matter, and there is
every reason TO believe the engine
finally selected will be equal
TO all the requirements. When IL is In
place and running then there will be no
longer any danger of . water famine due

Many Candidates.

Since the resignation # Sergeant Boss

by members of the force who are
desirous OF wearing the stripes.
AS il was generally understood
the vacancy was 10 be filed at the after
noon meeting OF the aldermen there was
more or less discussion as to who
the successful candidate would be.
The men prominently mentioned are
Patrolmen Whipple, Hartnett. Costigans,
Duffy and Feeney. Those who pretend
to be well Informed say that the choice
lays between Messrs. Whipple apd Hart
nett. but there are others who claim
that IL is anybodys race as yet and that
no one can claim a majority Of the votes
until they are actually cast.
That is to say while the mem
bers of the board have been but
ton-holed for the purpose of getting
them TO. promise TO stand by
this or that candidate majority OF them
have declined to make any pledges and
are still fancy free. This being the case
IL is not improbable that dark horse
