Mayor Ames' solicitude to save the peo-
pie from the burden Of permanent I'M
provement bonds issued by the city coun-
Gil last spring and now held up. in the
courts at the mayors instigat1on, has
already cost the water department about
$11, 900 in the advanced price of water

another week as it has of late, the amount
will be considerably larger. :, IS -
The water department advertised for
bids for $500 tons of cast iron pipe OF
various sizes for water mains this year.
The lowest bidder was the United State
Cast Iron Pipe and. Foundry company and
the Waterworks committee was about to
award the contract when advised by the
city. attorney that-it would have to hold
Off, until the. legality Of the permanent
Improvement, bond was decided by the
supreme court, as the same question was
involved in the recent issue of bonds for
water department purposes. So the COM
mittee deferred action. pending a de-
cision by the court, which will not be
forthcoming before April Is, at the earli-
est. But the company refuses to stand
by it's bid for that length of time on a
rising market. Registrar Moody re-
ceived a letter from the company to-day
informing him that cast iron had adj
vanced 81 per ton in price since the bid
was made and that the company would
not accept the contract unless awarded by
April 1. This. means that the committee
will have to advertise for bids later in
the season. and the prospects are that 1t
will be unable to get price less than
So per. ton in excess. of that made
