conviction by jury secured yesterday in the
Criminal Branch of the United States Circuit Court
will do much. 1t is said. toward the prevention
hereafter of the reckless and criminal dumping Of
refuse by scowmen in the channels Of New-York

dall captain of the tugboat F. n. Brown, and
Cornelius Nelson master of self-dumping scow No.

Lieutenant Commander John C. Fremont, U. s.
N Supervisor of the Harbor the principal
witness called by the Government. He said that
the channels being steadily blocked by refuse
dumped from scows. and that 1t was hard to
secure the evidence of the violations. because they
committed under of the darkness of
night. This instance. however, was a fragrant
case. about sixty cart loads OF cellar dirt were
dumped in the East River off Forteth-st. early on
the morning of August % last.
The jury found the men guilty OF dehling the

TUNNEL BIDDERS EXPECTED.
ESTIMATES ON THEIR NUMBER. HOW
EVER, SAID TO BE MERE


GUESSWORK AS YET
Considerable prominence given yesterday TO
an alleged Interview with a Rapid Transit Com
missioner, whose name made public in
which he was quoted saying he was sure there
would be three bidders for the tunnel contract The
Tribune has several occasions published the
statement of President Orr that he confidently ex-
Peced several bidders for the contract At the Of
hce Of the Commission YESTERDAY it was asserted
that could be sure of the exact number of
bidders until the bids opened Monday and
that to say positively this stage that there would
be three guesswOrk.
AT the office Of the chief engineer of the Commits
sion, William Barclay Parsons, 1t was said that so
many persons had applied there for the plans and
the form of contract that it would surprise
were a lot of bids to be put in between now and
next Monday. The important question: however.
Is not the number OF bidders but how many of
them will be found to be responsible There is good
reason to think that at least two bids will
be found worthy of serious consideration. The
Terminal Railroad and Tunnel Company of which
Arthur c. Hume is the spokesman, has announced
Itself in the field. The Third Avenue Railroad
Company and the Metropolitan Street Railway
Company have said nothing which would stop them
from bidding. Some of the big men OF Tammany
Hall may bid under the of a syndicate, and
the favorable attitude Of the Commission toward
Controller Coler's plan of extending the system by
means Of tunnels to Brooklyn and Staten Island is
expected to make the attractive to bidders
who did not especially desire it when the road
seemed to be confned to Manhattan and The
Bronx
Corporation Counsel Whalen asked yesterday
II he knew of any contractors who were going to
bid for the work of building the rapid transit road
He said:
Il / have been told that there will be at least two
responsible bidders and 1 would not be at all
prlsed IL there should be more. One of the leading
men In the Rapid Transit Commission told the
other day that the contract for the entire system
would be given out on Tuesday, and that the road
Hban6 you'd be completed in three years If by any
l
should be no bidders, the road will be built by the
city and operated by the city.
