During the last few days when the

worse by sprinkling the streets, as the

at his house last night and urged him
not to sign the water contract, which has
been awarded to p H. Flynn. Mr.. Ward
left with the Mayor a great bundle of

advantage. Mr. Ward also made a strong
plea for his pet State Water Board
scheme The Mayor listened patiently
half the night, and then promised to give
all objections full consideration before
taking definite action,
This morning the Mayor received a let
ter from G. C. Cazin. Of Hoboken. an
engineer. who objects to some of Flynnfs
plans for the laying of the big rivetted
conduits The Mayor proposes consulting

raised by Engineer Cain.
The Mayor has decided that he will not
take any action on the water contract
this year He says he has learned from
Corporation Counsel NfcDermott that it
win be impossible to get up the con-
tracts for review inside of a week, and
possibly Ten days Mayor Hoos has an
nouneed that he will not approve the
award until he has seen the contracts,
which win accompany the award, nor will
he approve the award until he has gone
over the contracts with disinterested
lawyers and engineers and assured him
self that in every particular the city will
be amply protected Every concession
which has been demanded and acceded to
must appear in the contract, and any
thing the Mayor may construe as being
