GARBAGE BIDS OPENED.
Aldermen Consider New Route for
Rice Street Cars.


The board of aldermen devoted the
greater part Of their session last evening
to the garbage question. Before opening
the bids there was a jangle over the spec
itications. Aid. Kenny and Shepard con-
tended that the scheme of making the
contractors haul away manure and stuff
from vacant lots was hardly in the pro-
vince of the city. Aid. Murphy insisted
that the bids be opened, and the question
of what was to be removed by the con-
tractors settled afterWard. The bids were
opened and referred to committee con-
sisting Of Messrs. Shepard, Murphy and
Reeves, with instructions to tabulate and
report at an adjourned meeting to be
held Dec. e. The bids were as follows:
