But two bids were received, from 7.
J. Willett and G. A. Wendt the former
being for SO, 450 and the latter for 81
929. The bids were segregated as to
the different portions of work to be
done
The Committee on Contracts retired
and considered the bids, and made the
following report:
Mr.. Chairman: Your Committee on
Contracts beg leave to report that the
bids for a dungeon and windows in the
Courthouse we believe to be excessive,
and as for a woman'S ward, we have
one now in the eastern part of the Jail.
Therefore wa recommend that all bids
be rejected"
The report was signed by SuperViS-
ors Dreman, Todd and Jenkins.
Supervisor Todd expressed the opin-
ion that it would not pay to expend so
much money on the old building. Some
time in the near future a new Court
house will have to be built. He did not
not believe in paying 5000 for dun
geon and as for the women's ward, the
Sheriff could separate them from the
men if he wished.
Chairman Morrison thought the win
dOws in the upper story of the building
should be improved. The offices on that
floor required it. He also favored a
ward for women in the County Jail. A
new Courthouse is a long way off,
owing to the hard times, and there
should be proper place for women
prisoners in the County Jail.
Supervisor brennan said he favored
the Improvement of the windows, but
thought the women prisoners could cas-
lily be separated from the men in the
Jail as it is.
Supervisor Curtis believed the i'm
provements should be made, as they
should not be delayed until the county
can build a new Courthouse
After some further discussion the
roll was called and the report adopted,
Morrison and Curtis voting no.
All the members thought the bids
were rather excessive, and Chairman
Morrison moved that the Clerk read
vertise for new bids. If the work could
be done cheaply enough, he thought it
should be done.
The motion was carried. and the
board then took recess until 10 o'clock

6. I. Jones and A. j. Bruner VIII Not
Defend CaiIendine.

Yesterday morning Judge Iiinkson
stated that he had been informed that
neither c. T. Jones nor A. J. Bruner
whom he had appointed to defend l.. l..
Callendine, General A. L. Hart having
withdrawn from his case, were willing
to serve
General Hart, who was present stated
that he had received no compensation
for the services rendered by him in the
first trial, the security given him by
Callendine proving to be worth nothing.
Ihe case was one of the hardest he
had ever tried. and it came near break
ing him down. He did not feel physi-
eaily aple to try il again, and expected
TO move his office to san Francisco and
commence practice there the 1st of Au-
gust. He thought. Tor these reasons,
that 1T would be a hardship for him to
be compelled to continue in the case, and
although he had been retained in the
first one and had done his duty without
compensation, he had made no arrange
ment with Callendine for the second
trial.
Mr.. Brunner said that he had never
asked to withdraw from an appointment
by the court, and had gone into cases
where he had to foot the bills from his
own pocket, but he could not act as
Caliendine's counsel without prejudic-
ing the interests of his own clients, as he
had several cases set for the same time

{. /. Jones said he had defended many
persons without pay, but felt that he
should not act in this case, as the Dis
tict Attorney had consulted With him
ana outlined his proceeding in it to him.
The Court held all the excuses valid
and excused the attorneys from serving.
