SEWER BIDS OPENED.
They are Full of Detail and Prove
Quite Complicated.

Bids for the instruction of the San
Antonio sewer system ana furnishing ma
terial for same, were opened at Il o'clOck
noon, today, by Mayor Elmendorf, in the
city council room, in the presence Of
about 225 bidders, a large number of citi-
zenS, and members OF the Aldermanic
board.
Clerk Norton read each hid while an
official stenOgrapher registered the bids
as read.
There were about fifty bids on cOnStruc-
tiOn, all very volumnOuS and full Of de-
tail. They will have to be calculated by
the official clerks, chosen yesterday by
the council, before the lowest and best
bidder can be determined upon.
The bids for material were of much
wider range, and embraced every variety
OF each class of material called for in the
specifications. These were also full of
great detail and were even more cOmpli-
Gated than the construction bids. They
will also be calculated by the clerks.
Consulting Engineer Gray and Engin
eer Pane asst were present TO lend their
assistance to the mayor. SuUerntend
ent Of sewer construction Locke, was also
present.
The remainder of the afternoon will be
necessary to comp etc the work Of open

Demand for Quick Straight Work.

Alderman Mackey's remarks upon the
sewer bidding deserve general common
datiOn. The effort made on the part OF
some of the members to delay the de-
cisiOn of the letting of the contract ex-
cited debate at the last meeting of the
council. Mr. Mackey called attention to
the fact that number of wealthy gentle
men from abroad were here upon the ad
vertiSed invitation to bid for the
sewers. He wished TO see the award
made as quickly as possible
and that there should be nothing
crooked in making the award. so that our
visitors from other cities might 90 away
with high opinion of our city. our peO-
pie. as well as of our climate. Our local
pride, and perhaps our local interests,
makes 1t desirable that our own people
should secure the contract, but should il
fall into the hands of any one OF the
gentlemen from abroad it might
prove a great thing for our
city, by inducing the inveS ,ment of capt.
tai in our midst. The taxpayers want
this work done I'm the best manner and
for the least money. Let it be the credit
of this administration that this great
enterprise will not be tainted with Job
berry its inception.
