1t is not improbable that the authority of
the District Commissioners to enter into
contract with bidder for supplying uni
forms to members of the police and fire de-
partments will be made by them the SUBJ
ject of an opinion by their attorney. The
members of both departments are required
to furnish their own uniforms, and this
being so the question has arisen whether
the Commissioners have authority to even
designate from whom the men shall pur-
chase their clothing.
AS heretofore stated in The Star, Cherry
Moran & Co. of this city offered to supply
the uniforms to the members of the two de-
partments for the ensuing summer and
winter at prices lower than those fixed by
Rosenfeld Bros. of Baltimore, to whom the
committee of the police department recon-
mended the contract for furnishing the uni
forms of that department should be award
ed, and, as also stated by The Star the
local firm was also the lowest bidder for
furnishing the uniforms of the fire depart
ment- The Baltimore firm is the present
contractor for police uniforms and as has
been explained in The otar, Captain Aus
tin, chairman of the committee of police
officers. stated that the committee was of
the opinion that the best interests of all
concerned would be best served by award
ing the contract to an outside firm at high
er prices.
From a report made to day to the Com
missioners by Messrs. Daniel Curry and E.
b.. Besse CT the District government a
committee appointed to examine the pro-
posals and samples submitted for the fire
department uniforms, it appears that

Immediately after the announcement of

eIal, who was presiding. announced the
election Of Mrs. Manning, and said she
would introduce her to the congress Mrs.
Manning, who had just arrived, entered
upon the stage laden with long-stemmed
American beauty roses and was greeted
with much enthusiasm, the members rising

erous treatment and said she had done
her duty during the past year and was
deeply sensible of the great honor con-
ferred by her reelection for the term of
two years. She would. with the help of
COD, serve them faithfully and honestly
Mrs. Jewett then read a resolution, say
ing that she desired the congress to elect
Its president general to represent them at
the Paris exposition III 1900. Mrs Donald
Mclean said that the president general

aggrieved that they &C uld not present them

gress to represent it in Paris.

ness man to make satisfactory clothes for
our public servants. AS an excuse for
awarding the contract to a Baltimore house
Capt Austin makes the unwarranted state
ment that our home bidders are simply
commission agents for firms of other Cities
or, rather, that we are incapable of making
the uniforms here, and that they think 1t
best to deal directly with the maker even
at a higher figure. This is a very foolish
argument.
THE statement is untrue and a rank in
justice to the business man of Washington.
We regret that our honorable Commission
ers have concurred in such an opinion
since they are expected to guard the COM
mercial interests of our community. We
respectfully request The Star to call for
our bid now in the hands of the awarding
committee, and you will find that we par
ticularly specified that the uniforms would
be made in our establishment by Washing

to make was several times greater than
the needs of the department. That there
