SCHEDULE OF BIDS SUBMITTED TO
DISTRICT COMMISSIONERS.
The Aggregate Somewhat Higher
Than That of Last Year-Com-
mittee's Recommendation.

The committee of District employees az
! pointed by the Commissioners to schedule
| the proposals recently received for furnish
| ing general supplies to the District during
the fiscal year ending June So 1901, today
| submitted its report through its chairman
| Mr.. Daniel Curry.
| In forwarding the bids to the Commits
| sioners Mr.. Curry stated that the schedule
| embraces thirty-three classes of supplies,
the lowest bids on the various classes ag-
| gregating the sum of $3.50. 941 90, an amount
| somewhat greater than that of last year.
! due to higher prices for some supplies and
| also to an increased amount of these sup
| plies needed during the coming fiscal year
| The examining committee recommends
| that the present system of requiring uni
form deposit of 500 with each proposal
| regardless of the amount of the proposal
| be changed. because the amounts repre-
| scented in the bids vary from $3.50 to more
than $1,000 The committee also recon-
| mendS the further Subdividlng OF the
| classes, as it is believed better prices and
in some case better materials. would be
! secured. The committee states that MI
| G. NJ. Mann, the lowest bidder fresh
meats, desires to withdraw his bid. Mr.
| Mann explaining that he submitted his pro-
| posal under a Misrepresentation of the con-
if he should forfeit his deposit of 5000
| rather than carry out the proposal. the
next lowest bidder Thomas T. Keane
| would probably be awarded the contract
| The bidding this year is said to have been
| unusually close, and it will be observed
| that in several instances the difference be-
| tween bids amounts to but few dollars
! In several cases but one bid received.
| there being but one for ice, and that 1t is
| stated. being about a third higher than
| the one of last year.
