is BOTTOM OUT OF TRUST?
Waterloo Gets Asphalt Paving az Cents
Under Bulk of Local Contracts.

Waterloo Gets Asphalt Paving az Cents
Under Bulk of Local Contracts.
Has the bottom fallen out of the
asphalt trust? Such is the claim of
men who are interested in the asphalt
business, and the recent contracts that
were awarded at Waterloo would in
dictate that either Marshalltown paid
an excessively high price for her paw
ing, or else Waterloo is going to have
Il very cheap article of permanent
street improvement.
The Barber Asphalt Company has
been awarded the work at Waterloo,
the total amount of the contracts be-
ing $119,741, divided between the two
sides of the river. The sum of $79,241
represents the amount of the paving
for the east side streets, and $40,494
used is known as the "Genasco," and is
to be put in at $l.55. The combined
curb and gutter contract went at A
cents. These figures are much lower
than those for the bulk of the Mar
shalltown contracts of 1902 and 1905,
which were $197 for paving and SIS
cents for combined curb and gutter.
The South Third avenue contract was
cheaper, the paving going at $50, be-
cause some of the old macadam foun-
dalton was used, and the curbiug at
AZ cents, without the gutter.
The result of the work done in Wa
terloo will be watched with interest
locally because of the fact that the
price for the work is so much under
that paid here. Waterloo papers claim
that "Genasco" asphalt is identically
the same as Bermuda and Trinidad
Pitch lake, and that the word is a clev-
err intention Of the Barber company,
taken from the three words Of the cor
porate name of the company, General
Asphalt Company. A man who is ia
miliar with the workings of the asphalt
company says that the asphalt trust
is no more, by reason of the troubles
the asphalt people have had in Venez-
uela, and for that reason asphalt is
cheaper now than 1t was when the
trust was holding up the prices.

will include recommendations which
will be embodied in the report to the

New Quartermaster's Building.
The principal recommendation of the
committee will be that a new quarter
masters building be erected, and the
necessity for the improvement will be
urged. The quartermaster is badly
handicapped, in the minds of the conn
mittee, for want of sufficient room In
which to keep the institutions sup
plies. No more room is furnished this
department now than eighteen years
ago, when the Home was first built.
The demands have been met In other
departments, as the Home increased Ill
size, but the committee believes that
the quartermaster's department has
been neglected.

ice is very pretty and impressive.
