LIGHTING THE BOULEVARD.
Construction Company's Bids Sci
Aside by Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court yesterday upset
the award of the Freeholders to the
Complete Electrical Construction Com
pany for the lighting of the Boulevard by
electricity. Some months ago, when the
Freeholders received bids for this work,
Contractor Michael T. Connolly sub
mitted bid of about $4,000. The con-
struction company was the next lowest
bidder.
After several weeks of consideration
the contract was awarded to the Con-
struction Company. Through Collins &
Corbin the proceedings were carried to
the Supreme Court for review. The de-
cision compells the Board to readvertise
for bids by rejecting all bids previously
received. The Freeholders made the
award to the Construction Company on
the ground that it could give better
service than Connolly.

ceive:the usual dividend upon their
face value.
