GRAYS HARBOR JETTY.


net0oo1er - Seos 81 Chlco0O. tine
Lowest Diaders-AH Bids Lever
Than Government Estimntes.
At : O'Clock yesterday afternoon Capt.
Harry Taylor. corps Of engineers. opened
the bids for the construction Of the jetty
At Grays harbor. Four bids from as
many contracting firms were presented.
as follows: Heldmaier & Men, Of Chi
cago, $5a2 go; Hale & Kern Construction
Company, Of Portland. sass SO: Wakefield
& Jacobsen. OF Portland, $7sS. 20; Philip
Beuhner, Of Portland. $50. TO-
1t will be seen that the Chicago firm,
Heldmaier e. Neu. were the lowest bid
ders. Their bid is considered remark
ably low. when 1t Is known that the esti-
mates OF the engineers of the war de-
partment were 100000. Hale & Kern
come next.
The chief difference In the bids Is In the
price asked for furnishing the stone. the
principal material used in the construction
$4,000 tons OF stone. Each OF the COM
psting bidders was required to name he
kind OF stone he would furnish. The
Chicago arm named Porter and Cedar
creek stone. These quarries. it Is under
stood, are near Grays harbor, and Of
course the cost Of delivering the stone to
the 5etty Is a factor In the bids. Held
maier & Neus price on the stone they
offer to furnish is 7s1s cents per ton, while
the price offered by the others was not
less than $40 per ton.
II will be several days yet before any
decision will be arrived at regarding the
bids. Capt. Taylor will canvass the bids
and will make a recommendation to the
war department The lowest bidders in
this case were the lowest when bids were
asked for year ago.

TWO VESSELS OVERDUE.


Augusta should he In.
The steamship Cleveland is three DAYS
overdue from San Francisco. There were
many Wild rumors about the streets yes
terday concerning her delay and the prob
ability of her being wrecked. E. E. Caine.
the local manager of the Kruse & Madison
line, said last night that he had no fears
for the vessels safety: it was possible that
some accident may have happened to her
machinery, but nothing worse.
The Augusta has not been reported. It
is thought possible that both the Cleveland
and the Augusta were caught In the severe
gale off the coast a few days ago.
A special dispatch from Tacoma to the
Post -Inteiiigencer says:
There Is considerable uneas!ness felt
here by reason of the delay In the arrival
of the steamer Cleveland from San Fran
cisco. She was due inside Wednesday night
or Thursday morning. The master OF the
umatilla reports having passed the Cleve-
land on her way north. and that the Cieve-
land was travelling very slowly. Local
Agent Marvin does not seem disturbed by
the delay of the vessel, and believes had
anything been wrong the Umatilla would
have been signaled."
The Associated Press sent out the follow
ing from San Francisco:
Grave fears are entertained as to the
safety OF the steamer Cleveland. which left
this port for Seattle on December l. She
Is already more than two days overdue,
and Ii is believed that she has met with
some untoward accident either to her ma
chinery or hull.
A dispatch from Port Townsend says:
Nothing Is known about the steame Cieve-
land here. beyond the rumor that she has
been disabled.
Little credence Is placed In the rumor
that the Chilean bark Augusta is lost
She has been In the bound In" list for
Puget sound for several months. but ship
ping men here say they have recently re-
eeived Information that she Is still on the
west coast OF South America.
