modations for the work as good as those
OF any yard in the country. We now have
thirty acres of land, and If that is not
sufficient room for handling the contract

Under the most favorable circum-
stances It would be at least six months
before the work OF construction upon the
battleship could be commenced. The first
work would be to turn the matter over
to the drauehting office and have our de-
tailed plans and bills Of material prepared
Nearly all this material must come from
the East and 1t would be necessary to
wait several months for II to be made TO

The present plans would necessitate

OPINION or LAWYERS.

battleship to be built on the Pacific coast
has received considerable discussion since
the opening of the bids, At the request
of Moran Bros. Company. this question was
passed upon by several prominent law
yers, including members OF congress, and
in each case 1t has been held that the
per cent provision IL equivalent to an
increase of that amount In the cost limit
upon the work to be done on the Pacific
coast
by taking supposltitious case It will
be possible for me to illustrate the justice
of our contention in this matter" said
Robert Moran yesterday. Suppose the
Eastern bidders are given an opportunity
to scale their figures down and put in
new bid for exactly the amount of the
limit, .sS,soo,ooo II at the same time we
reduce our bid TO ss,740,0o0, the
navy department is required under
the law to award us the contract for one
of the battleships because our figures are
within per cent. OF the lowest accepted
Eastern bid.
'"rhe allowance of this per cent. is an
act of justice to the Pacific coast bidders.
Much of the material TO be used in the
construction must be brought from the
Atlantic coast, and we are compelled to
pay the freight upon the transportation OF
this material across the continent. A mar
gin of per cent il small enough to al
low for this heavy item of expense. 1t
would certainly be an injustice TO ask us
to compete with the Atlantic concerns
upon an equal basis, especially since con-
gress has provided a differential in our
favor.
NO question as to our ability to do the
work will be considered in the awarding
OF the contracts. / think Secretary Long
Is convinced that we are able to handle
battleshin. The report OF Naval Con-
struetor Hibbs was Of a nature to set any
counts at rest, as he favorably passed
upon every part of our equipment.
