gineer in favor of the contractor for
the subsctructure.
The Commissioners call the atten-
tion of the said Engineer to the opin-
ion OF Mr.. Wilson respecting these
Estimates
"My opinion as an Engineer has
been asked respecting certain esti-
mates, as to what is usual and custom
AIRY in the business and what should be
a proper Interpretation of the con-
tracts in this respect. Copies of two
estimates in favor of Jos. Hendler,
contractor, certified to by J. C. Brown,
Engineer, have been shown me, viz |:
Estimate No. approved December
80, 1893, for 400 yards of stone
dressed at quarry ready to be shipped,
$4,000. Estimate No. 2, approved
February 7, 1894, for sundry items in
Guiding stones dressed in quarry, stone,
cement and sand delicered on the
work, &c, amounting $5395.82, after
deducting the assumed payments on
EotlllldlC NO. L.
Contractors are often men of small
meaDs, and it is usual and customary
to make them monthly payments, and
the written contract generally reads
" for materials delivered and work
DONE"
This is fair and right, and in ac-
cordance with the custom of the bust.
ness. Bat in no case should an En-
glneer estimate and pay contractor
anything for materials not delivered
and not in the custody and control ol
the owner of the work.
All materials estimated and paid
for must be so deposte d that the owner
of the work shall h ave a clear title tc

cordance with the specifications and
contract. The wall is thin and the
stone used are in heavy courses. 1t
therefore becomes difficult to secure a
good bond and tie the work together.
My judgment is that there is very
little bond between the face and back
of the wall, and l am clear that this
wall is not in accordance with the con
tract and its accompanying specihcat-
IONS"
The Commissioners by reasons Of
matters contained in said report and
quoted above dispute that the masonry
in the South Abutment is in accord
ance with the contract, for the sub
structure of the said bridge and the
plans and specifications accompany
ing the same, and therefore request
the said Engineer to decide in writing
the said dispute between the said
County and Joseph Hendler, con-
tractor.
That the said James G. Brown shall
file in the Commissioners Office
statement showing the actual amount
of stone used in the said South Aout-
ment, upon which the contractor did
not pay $2.4o per cubic yard freight.
That the clerk shall serve copy of
this resolution on James C. Brown
and Joseph Hendler.
On resolution being put the same
was adopted by votes of G. M. Ikeler
and J. G. Swank; w. H. UT, negative.
