moved that the salary of the street

its first reading in the council.

on the progress of the committee on
the question of new bridge between

land said that the committee had been
blamed for not deciding upon some
thing definite at once. but several OBJ
stacles have appeared in the way. He
said in part: THE Berlin Bridge Co., of
East Berlin. CT, was the lowest bidder
for the two steel spans and a verbal
contract was made with it's representa-
tive. Charles +. King. Frederic Dan
forth. the city engineer, examined the
specifications and said that they not
the right thing. Therefore A. NJ. Spear

to Henry Maynard. I'd assistant engi-
neer of Boston, for examination and
see II they fit the bill. If the Boston
man cannot agree with the committee.
the committee will take the next lowest
bidder and look into his plans. The
matter will be settled as speedily as
possible"
An order was introduced by Harra-
den OF Ward 3, that the two spans be
constructed at once instead of next
