NEWTON BACKS OUT.
Says He Doesn't Want to Cart
Away City Refuse.
But Lawyer Dean Says He will
Hold Him to the Contract.
Looks As Though DALEY Had Ar
ranged Deal.

Assistant Corporation Counsel David
J. Dean. who has charge OF the litiga-
tion over the contract for the removal
OF garbage and ashes made by the
STRENGTHENING Department with Louis
III. Newton, received a letter this morn
ing from Newton's counsel. The letter
said that Newton did not want to be
involved In litigation. and preferred to
have the matter dropped and the con-
tract readvertlsed.
Doesn't that look as II Daley had
succeeded in making a deal with New
TONI" Mr. Dean was asked.
1T doesn't make any difference" he
replied. II am going to Insist that the
contract be carried out by Newton. /
don't recognize Daley in this matter"
Daley said when Newton unler-bid
him that he had n good thing. and
did not want to let go of It. even II he
had to spend thousands of dollars.
DALEY had an agreement with Street
Cleaning Commissioner Andrews to re-
move the city's refuse material at about
s6J a scow loed. or about ~ cents per
cubic yard. 1.-The Evening World
pointed out how the city could, save
work done by contract.
The work was advertised. and Louis
II. Newton offered to take the job for
nine cents per cubic yard. n saving to
the city of from $4,000 to $40 900 year.
The contract was signed and approved.
but Daley, who, as he said, wanted to
hold on to his good thing" obtained
from Justice Beach a temporary injunc-
ton. restraining the city and Newton
| from executing the contract.
The ground OF objection was flmsy
technicality. the object apparently be-
ing to gain time. and this Daley has
done to his advantage.
He has evidently succeeded in making
satisfactory arrangements with Newton.
Mr.. Dean communicated with Com
missioner Andrews, Dailey's friend.
| Andrews Is in Albany and he asked
Mr.. Dean to secure a further postpone
ment on the argument of the injunc-
ton until he can consult with him.
