IN REGARD TO THE CITY BINDING

II seems possible that the city may
have TO pay twice for work done only
once-a thing almost il not quite unprece-

At the meeting of the Committee on
Accounts and Printing yesterday after
noon Major Sol Cutchins. representing
Nessrs. weymouth. Meister x Smethie.
the city binders. appeared before the COM
mittee and presented a paper, drawn up
in due legal form. which reclted that the
said firm had been duly awarded the
contract for city binding and had filed
a bond In the penalty of s. 800 Tor the
faithful performance OF their obligations.
WHAT Is CLAIMED.
Notwithstanding this. said the paper.
the contract for binding the city tax bills
had been given 10 the Everett Waddey

similar character
Messrs. Weymouth. Mester & Smethie
therefore ask that the city draw a war
rant in their favor for whatsoever amount
is due or has been paid the Everett Wad-
dey Company FOR the said work.
After consideration the matter was re-
ferred To the chairman. Mr.. John r.
West: the clerk OF the committee. and
the City Attorney.
