J. S. and c. D. Nicolai yesterday sub
nitted to the Commissioners the follow
ing communication relative to the award
ing OF the contract for naphtha street
lighting for the ensuing fiscal year:
Referring to the proposals for naphtha
lighting opened on May Il, 1901, we beg
TO cau your attention to the fact that the
bidder whose offer is accepted is required
10 enter into contract within ten days
after notice that the work has been
awarded 10 him. We are Informed tndL
the American Development Company,
whose bid was accepted by you, did not
within ten days after notice OF the ac-
ceptanCe Of its bid enter into contract Tor
the work We contend that this lnt0r-
mality invalidates the bid OF the Amerl-
can Development Company and entities
US as the next lowest bidders to the con-
tract.
section Is Of the specifications for
nauhtha lighting requires that the sue
cessful bidder will execute contract
within five days after notice Of the ac-
ceptauce Of his bid. This provision ais>
was not complied with
I'VE believe the failure Of the American
Development Company TO enter into con
tract within ths time mentioned IN the
specifications is such an infOrmallty as
renders its bid void and entities US as the
next lowest bidders TO the work. We nave,
therefore TO request that you VIII either
give Us a hearing on this point or that
you viii refer the matter to the Attorney
for the District for an opinion
Again il would seem that where BIDS
are received for public work the blank
proposals and specifications SHOULD Fead
the same on question of time required IN
the signing of contract. otherwise II would
make the papers informal, as in the pres
ent instance.

A few days ago the Commissioners
communicated with Andrew L0effier, Civ
ing him formal notice 10 show cause why
the permit issued 10 him February Z, 1901,
to drive hogs through the public streets
should not be revoked. Mr.. LOeffier has
now replied and says that he does not
desire 10 drive hogs at the times men
toned in the permit, but will be con-
tent 70 do so during the summer months,
only between the hours Of 10 O'Clock at
night and o'clock in the morning.
Mr. LOefier states that he VIII be glad
10 have q station established at Scott 8
Station or any other convenient point
from Silver Spring TO Benning, and that
IL is immaterial 10 him whether the stock
passes through BeHning or not. Pending

declares that IL viii be fatal 10 his busl-

Harry W. Pote. engineer Of the District
Building. has submitted to the Commis-
sioners a report upon the condition Of
the steam plant under his charge. He
declares It to be in good condition, and
says:
During the fiscal year I have used only
25o tons Of coal. which is 130 tons less
than the amount used during the fiscal
year ended June 3d. 1879. and 121 tons
less than the amount used during the
fiscal year ended June 80, 1909
THE plant has been shut down eighteen
hours during the year. in order to make
minor repairs. IN view of the fact that
the plant has only one elevator pump the
repairs to the machinery have to be made
either at night or on sundays, thereby
involving an expense for time and half
time for night work, and double time
for Sunday work.
In order. therefore, to avoid this oN-
ira expense and TO enable me to make
most OF the repairs myself. I have the
honor TO recommend that the plant be
equipped with an additional pump Of the
Worthing;0n type, two sizes larger than
the present pump, OF the compound style,
as this style would save fuel and give
better service than any other Such a
pump would cost about 5000.

one more fireman at the District Build

Henry NJ. Hoyt, President OF the Re
form School for Girls, has called the at
tention of the Commissioners to certain
defects in the operation Of the window
blinds on the new building recently erect
ed for the school. lie asks the Commis-
sioners that something be done to remedy
these defects on account Of resulting
damage when the blinds are disturbed by
the wind The matter was referred to
the Building Department, and John =.
Brady. the Inspector OF Buildings, has
returned the following report:
'InaSmuch as the outside blinds to the
windows Of the building have been pro-
yided with hinges and fasteners OF the
tyne prescribed by the architect IN his
Specifications for the work, and the con-
tractors Pavarini 4, Greer, have com
piled with the requirements Of the con-
tract. no further eXactiOus can De I'M
posed upon them.
As stated, several blinds have been
broken or otherwise damaged because the
fastenings were not secured, and unless
proper precautiOn is taken TO adjust them
when they are open and thrown back
against the walls further damage may be
expected The outside of the window
opening are fitted with iron screens. and
the fixtures with which the blinds are
equipped permit them TO be opened from
the inside of the house and to be ad-
1usted so as TO maintain a fixed position
when thrown back, but to obtain this re-
suit the fasteners must be inserted in the
sill catches provided therefor and / sug-
gest that orders be given by the trustees
to that effect"
An inspection made by the Building De
rssr1nlesss since the above report was
transmitted to the officials Of the Reform
School informs the Commissioners that
the fastenings are now working as they
were intended to do, and as well as those
OF this type customarlly do.
