ED OF CONTRACTORS BY
THE CITY.
ALL BONDS MUST BE EXACT,
AND EVERY SURETY THEREON
IS TO BE CRITICISED VERY
CAREFULLY.
SCHOOL CONTRACTS LAID OVER.
No Reflections on the vBondsmen
offered, .but the Form of
Bond DON'T Suit.

The assembly committee on ways
and means met yesterday afternoon
to dispose of unfinished business.
The committee spent an hour dis
cuSsing its duty in the matter of ap-
proving the bonds accompanying
contracts for the new school to be
built on Avon and Lafond streets
and the additions to the Cleveland
and Lincoln schools. The members
of the committee decided that they
would not recommend the contracts
for approval until thoroughly sat
isfied that every surety on the three
bonds was good for the amount for
which he had qualified ~ s.
1t was understood that the decision
was not intended as a reflection upon
the financial standing of the con-
tractors nor the sureties, but as a
rule of the committee which would
be followed in all similar matters.
Assistant Corporation Attorney
Phillips was requested to notify the
contractors of the action Of the COM
mittee .- .,*
Another technicality relating to a
bond intruded itself in the consider
alton of the contract for the contefrl-
plated repairs of the Mississippi
street bridge. The lowest bidders for
the work are Sherwood, Sutherland &
Co, and the bid is 81, 402. TO- The bid
ders' bond for SIC, 1000 is defective and.
not approved as to form. The COM
mlttee was satisfied that the bond
was perfectly good, but one of the
sureties, H. F. Drake, whose finan-
cial standing is conceded to be of
the best, had not justified in the
amount. This defect was sufficient
to cause the committee to agree upon
a report advising that none of the
bids be accepted There was some
informal discussion whether it
would not be advisable, owing to the
eXIgencies of the case to award the
work to the next lowest bidder.
THOMAS Reilly, at S4,4S9:e5,. but to
avoid possible complications the idea
was not adopted
IhH committee placed itself on record
as faVoring the policy of fighting in
the courts every claim for dannag
on account Of defective sidewalks. The
matter came up in a claim of Elizabeth
A Maize, who alleges that she was in
Jured on Sept. 2, 1894. The defective
sidewalk was on John street, between
Ienth and Grove streets, just opposite
the residence of Bruno Beaupre. Mrs.
Names attorney stated that $500 would
be accepted as a compromise, although
the claim is for $1,000
Mr.. Parker explained the policy of
the committee. and said: I'VE con-
| slider it our duty to save all the money
| possible for the city, and where there
is chance to resist these claims we
believe in letting them go into the
| courts
| Mr.. Lewis indorsed. the view. of his
colleague, and explained his reason,
saying: "a jury can go into these mat
ters of evidence much better than a
| committee. 1t will probably do exact
| justice between the city and any citi-
zen" The attorney announced that
he should begin suit without delay.

HOTTEST TO DATE,
Therm ON eter Went Into the Nine.
ties Yesterday.

Yesterday was the hottest of the year
thus far. The people who had been
complaining about the cool air got ell
they wanted of summer before the
day was over. The great amount of
humidity in the atmosphere caused
much suffering throughout the city,
although no cases of sunstroke were
reported UP to late hour. At differ
ent times during the day the mercury
reached so to "a, the highest point being
reached about o'clock in the after
noon. The sudden change from cool.
pleasant air to a, hot humid wave
knocked the life out of business, and
from o'clock till there were COM
paratively few people on the streets.
A little breeze from the West helped
things considerably, and increasing
towards night made life worth living
. again. Had it not been for the breeze
the suffering would have been intense
and many would most likely have
dropped from exhaustion. Showers
were predicted for this section, but
the hot wave evidently dried them up
on the way. They never reached here.
The people who wanted them particu-
lariy were the ones who have been
s'kicking on the unusual amount of rain
this spring and summer

COHEN COULD YELL,
And officer Hnmmis Did the Rest
"A Queer Lark


The peaceful .slumbers of Max Co
hen and the gentleman's dreams of
rapidly accommodating wealth We're
rudely disturbed early yesterday
morning by severe pinch on the calf
of his leg, administered by his wife,
who told him in a stage whisper that
there was burglar in the house She
had heard him climbing over the tran
som of the rear door and she wanted
Max to go out and see about it, Pref
ty nice thing to ask Max to do, but
fearing other consequences, he went
and discovered the burglar hiding in
a corner. He made no effort to choke
the burglar into submission, he did
not confront him with gun of mighty
calibre, nor did he throw a bomb shell
or sky rocket at him. Max simply
ran like deer for the front door and
yelled himself hoarse as he flew.
Officer HammiS was at the corner of
Market and Third and hearing the
cries, ran up to Cohen's store, which
is at 40 West Third, and found the
burglar taking divers "a, and sundry
kicks at Cohen's head. Hammis cap
tured the burglar, who at the station
gave his name as William Wilson, his
occupation as painter and his resi-
dence.445 Rice street. He said. he was
drunk and on lark. and didn't know
what he was doing. His case will be
heard on Monday next.

who said the last time he saw Cal
the latter was fat and happy looking
physically, and mentally he was bright

said Mr.. Kelly, 81 saw him tested by
several experts a few evenings ago
and Stone gave them all the worst Of

CARTER,s NOTIONS.
Light and Airy Tom of Montana
-
Talks Briefly.

Hon. Thomas H. Carter, chairman Of
the national Republican committee,
was in town yesterday for a few hours.
He breakfasted at the Ryan and took
lunch at the Minnesota club with John
NJ. Egan. MIR. Carter was averse to
talking politics. stating that he was on
his way home to enjoy the heated term
lin the cool recesses of the Rocky
mountains. He endorsed the action of
the convention of league clubs in not
framing a platform for the party, say
ing that this should be left to the
action of national convention. The
issues of the next compaign, in Mr..
Carriers opinion, will be the currency
question, protection and the foreign
policy of the government. The ma
tional committee will meet in the fall
to decide upon the city which is to have
the next convention. San Francisco.
St. Louis, Chicago, Omaha and Pitts
burg are already in the race.

The joint committee on garbage met
yesterday afternoon for the purpose
of considering complaints against
certain employees of the garbage con-
tractors.
r. 3. c. Bement complained to the
health department that a garbage
collector wanted to charge him a dol
lar to remove a dead dog from the
premises, but Mr.. Bement refused to
pay him anything. AS soon as the
matter was reported to Mr.. Tierney,
the head of the garbage company, he
discharged the man.
Another complaint was received
charging a member of the garba ge COM
pany with dumping the garbage on
his own premises and keeping it
there until he could sell it to farmers.
When this was reported to Mr. Tier
ney the firm bought out the interest
of the offending member, and no more
garbage will be dumped on his prem
iSeS. 80 J
Capt. Hanft, of the Margaret street
station, informed the committee that
drunken driver of garbage wagon
collected % cents for removing a dead
Jug lIOUl premises III HIS t1IllS
proved to be the same man who tried
to beat Mr.. Bement out of q dollar.
Lieut.. Budy, of the Prior avenue
station, said that the dead animals
in his district were not removed as
promptly as they should be in this
weather. In one case the carcass of
a dog was not removed for five days,
and finally when Lieut.. Budy tele-
phoned to the garbage company the
individual at the other end of the
phone replied in offensive language.
Mr.. Tierney then explained things to
the committee. He said that it was
impossible to get good, reliable men
to collect garbage and dead animals.
Only men who get drunk could be
found to do this work, and they re-
sort to every device to raise money
to keep drunk.
Mr.. Johnson, the chairman of the
committee, said that he believed the
| garbage contractors were doing the
| work as carefully and conscientiously
as possible under the circumstances,
| but that they would be held RESPONSE
| BILE for the wrong-doing other en-
| ployes.
The committee then decided to re-
ceive the complaints and communica-
| tons. No further action was called
| for, inasmuch as the causes of the
! complaints had been removed
