DELAY IN CUSTOM HOUSE CONTRACT.

In regard TO the report from Washington to the
effect that the contract for excavation. fOunda-
tions and structural steel for the Custom
House in Bowling Green would be delayed for a
little time. owing to the necessity for figuring out
the Incidental profit and loss involved in the ques-
ton Of the time required for completion. Off
cial Of the Custom House said yesterday:
The bids which sent In differed great deal
in the length of time required In some of them
there difference OF six months One OF the
lowest bids called for the longest time As the
Government is under neavy interest charges,
amounting 10 between 5000 and 5000 a month, IL
might in the end be cheaper 10 accept one Of the
higher bids, which sdpulate for less time. There
were about a dozen bids In all The report speaks
for itself and there is nothing to add to It,
As TO the suggestion OF taking the earth from the
excavations TO Ellis Island TO all up the island and
extend the shore there, II is far nothing more
than a suggestion i do not know whether or not
Il will be acted upon.

An incident on the train during the run

pleasantries for five minutes, to the great
amusement of the others in the car.
After luncheon Mr.. Bryan was driven
to the opera house, which was crowded
to the doors. Gov. Tunnel presided,

said he was glad TO meet and address the
