HOLLY PUMP DEAL
Old Aldermanic Affairs Revived by
Alderman sutherland's State
ment to Grand Jurors.
Combine Of Sixteen Members Is Al
legged by the Former Member
of Council.

One OF the richest stories told by
former Alderman O. P. Sutherland to
the grand jury was the inside history
of the letting of the contracts for the
two pumps for the North Side pump
ing station.
To those on the ground at the time
there were several suspicious features
connected with the letting Of the con-
tract. Eight aldermen fought as
they had never fought before against
the sturdy majority Of eighteen. The
Sutherland story, however, relates to
a Combine Of only sixteen members
and evidently two who voted on the
winning side We're not In the deal.
When bids were asked five, we'll
was plain from the start that the con-
test lay between the Holly Manufac-
turing company and the Allis-Chal-
mers company. There were several
junkets. When the night for a vote
came there were two reports from the
waterworks committee, a minority re-
port favoring the Allis pump and
majority report favoring the Holly
pump. There was no great difference
in prices, altho the Allis concern was
$500 lower for two 15,00O,000 gallon
pumps than it's competitor. This diff
ference in q contract involving $780,
900 worth would have been a small
fnaCLSr, Hctu Ou0 pump OScA CO4lCSuSu
superior to the other.
The minority report urged specif1cal-
ly that the Holly bid, besides being
higher than the Allis, did not comply
with the specifications in many essen
ttal particulars. --,-
The name Of Andrew Bergstrom,
chief engineer Of pumps, appeared on
one of the recommendations for the
Holly pump. but 1t Is said that much
Of the matter in the report was filled
in after he had signed his name there
to and that he disavowed afterward
some Of the flattering things said Of the
Holly. Alderman 8 Powers declares
that he had this from Mr.. Bergstrom
personally before the latter died, and
says that Bergstrom was really in
favor of the Allis pump. N:.
The report of the minority was lost
by vote of 10 to is. The majority
follows: ~
.Ayes-Aldermen Foell, Ryan, Lane,
Mumm, Rand, Nels j., Nelson, Main,
McTaskey, Powers, Mccoy, Larson,
Sibley, Dwyer, Peterson, Peter Nelson,
Castle and Sutherland. i.
Nays-Aldermen Chatfield, Merrill,
S. E. Adams, Holmes, -McCune, A. S.
Adams and President Jones. ~
| Alderman Powers voted for the ma
jority report in order to give notice OF
reconsideration. He was first on the
floor and was recognized by the chair
but Alderman Lane appealed from the
decisions of the chair and, strange to
say, the chair was not sustained, the
vote being Identical with the former
A motion to reconsider was thereupon
made and lost by the same vote.
The unwillingness Of the majority to
leave such an important question open
1 for discussion. was looked upon by
several as a suspicious circumstance.
