Have a Misunderstanding. o..
Architect A. ]. Smith and Daniel E.
Cronin, junior member of the firm of John
W. Gaffney i Co had a fistic encounter
this noon, the result of which may be a
lawsuit. The story as told by Architect
Smith is as follows: When he made a visit
this morning to the new st Cecilia's church
on Scovill street he found that some but
tress caps. which he had ordered cut over
were again cut wrong by the quarymen
He told Foreman John White, also a stone
cutter, who was there. that they were not
cut according to details and would not
come out right. He also brought him to
the Office and gave him patterns so that
another mistake could not be made. He
thought nothing further of the mat
ter until at noon, as he was
passing Browns block on Exchange Place
he heard Cronin tell Gaffney that all the
top buttress caps of the church were cut
wrong. He stopped and explained to Mr.
Gaffney what he had done in the matter of
rectifying the mistake. Mr. Gaffney told
him to 90 ahead and push the work. 1

| Cronin said yes and that some one would
have to pay for it. 1 said that Butter

according to specifications. l wanted him
to come to my office and / would show
him he did not. We got into
his team and drove to the church.

Mr. Rice here broke in. The same old
hedging. Why don't you come out fat
the dam at these figures. II you intend to
furnish the stone required and then sue us.
we might as well build it ourselves and
have the lawsuit.
Mr. Wade said the contractors figured on
a certain profit. If they can not get the
stone nearby then they will cut into that
profit. The contract was entered into in
good faith and We ought to vote on this
question now.
The question was then put and all voted
to take the contract away from Gaffney &
Co with the exception of John Fitzpatrick.
MIR Webster then offered the following:
Voted, that the city engineer be directed
to correspond with the several parties who
| filed bids with the committee for the
| construction of masonry dam, inviting
them to file additional bids, if they so de-
sire. for the construction of said dam.
such bids to be opened of July,
1894. Mt o'clock p. m. and also to adver-
tise for proposals or bids for said work in
one or more publications having circula-
ton among contractors engaged in this
i class of work.
After a debate on the limit of time and
why the work could not be done by the
day. Mr. Rice wanted to put motion to al
low Gaffney & Co until Saturday night to
furnish an additional bond to do the work.
Mayor Kilduff said the best bond would
be for Gaffney L Co to bond the stones at
the dam.
Mr. Rice then moved to reconsider and
it being carried offered the following
vote which was passed:
| Voted, that the firm of j. W. Gaffney X
Co be and they are hereby given until
o'clock p. m. Saturday. July z. 1894, to
furnish a satisfactory bond with different
surities in the sum of $4,000 that they
will proceed Immediately to execute the
work of the constructing of the masonry
dam at the west branch IN accordance will
the provisions of the contract signed by
them April 81, 1894.
