INCREASE OVER PREVIOUS
QUOTATIONS.

The indernnifying features proposed for
all paving contracts hereafter drawn
were partially brought into effect yes
terday when bids for brick paving We're
opened by the board OF public works
They provided for a fve-year guarantee
and a 35 per cent security company bond
While there was perceptibIe raise
in the price. the lowest showing, $1-S3
per square yard over 1.e6 received on g.
previous contract, yet it was trihing and
not in line with the argument that this
guarantee provisions would tend to make
brick paving prohibitive. The bids open
ed were as follows:
Paving Bradley, North and Bedford
Streets-Fielding and Sheoley. a7.672:
James Forrestal Co., $4,000. The engi-
neer's estimate was ST 500.
Paving Locust Street, Tenth to Seventh
Fielding & Shepley, $5,675; James For
restal Co.. 5000; the engineers esti-
naate was $5.826.
For grading an alley in the block, bound
ed by Seventh RoS. Duluth avenue ana
Atlantic, Thomas Linnan was the lowest
bidder. at S238; for grading Prior avenue.
from Minnehaha to Chelton, Dan Baker
was the lowest, at S224
All the bids were taken under con-
sideration. The board has decided on an
adverse report for a sewer on Van Buren,
street. A favorable report will be made
on a sewer from Forest to Cypress street.
