A CASE OF NECESSITY.
Hess x Co. TO Repair the Postomce
Building.


Owing to press of time the contract for
the repairs at the city positoffice resulting
from the recent fire has been awarded to
Hess & Co, the original bidders for the in
side work on the building. Had there been
plenty of time to spare it is understood
that the contract might have gone to some
one else. However, on account of the lin
tied time it was impossible to advertise for
bidders for the work in the usual way. The
letting of the contract to Hess & Co. is an
eXigency measure, as that company has
agreed TO make all necessary repairs and
have the building ready for occupation
within four weeks. The cost of the work
of repair is $500.
When 1t was known that the contract
was awarded to Hess g. Co. it was stated
that II was in violation of law. On this
point, however, Mr.. Kemper, chief clerk
in the Office of the Supervising Architect, is
very positive that the law is not being vio-
lated In reply TO n suggestion on this line
he said. ''If We have violated the law the
District Attorney can be asked by any cit
izen to investigate the matter at once"

was arrested by Policeman Williams. 1t
was at first thought that King was seri-
ously and Newman fatally wounded. 1t
seemed that the bullet entered Kings ab-
domen, but the physicians at the Eastern
Dispensary, where he was taken, found
upon probing that one had lodged in the
right hip and the other in the leg about
seven inches lower than the first. The
bullets were removed.
Blood flowed freely from the ugly wound
on Newman's head. covering his face, neck,
and garments. His white shirt was almost
entirely red when he reached the Eastern
Dispensary. where he was conveyed in a
furniture wagon. Both King and Newman
were afterward pronounced out of danger
and taken to the Ninth precinct police sta
tion, where they were lodged in cells.

King at 327 Miller's Court.

some fun with him.
Accordingly Smith, the smaller of the
two. grabbed the shafts OF the carriage and
began TO pull the conveyance. Newman
was then busting one of the wheels, and
became entangled in the moving vehicle.
He warned Smith that it would be wiser
for him to continue down the alley. A war
Of words ensued. Smith knocked Newman
over the shafts of the carriage, and when
the latter regained his feet and showed
signs of opposition both Smith and King
assaulted him and began TO beat him over
the head
Newman succeeded In releasing himself
from the grasp Of his assailants and rushed
into the stable. The other two men fol-
lowed, thinking that their victim was only
fleeing. AS a matter of fact, Newman
thought his assailants were following him
to pummel him some more. and when he
reached a carriage in the interior of the
stable he raised the cushion on its seat
and drew out a revolver Standing his
ground, he dared King and Smith to come
on. He then pointed the weapon at Smith
and pulled the trigger three times before
he was able to make ii fire a shot. The
bullet whizzed near Smith. and he took to
his heels, disappearing out OF the Fourth
Street entrance TO the alley. Newman then
chased King into the alley. The latter se-
