He also | testified that SIPS collected for bicycle | tags during six months prior to Chief Cases suspension, had been paid in by the latter after he was on suspension. lJ. Levinsohn and II. Morningstar pawnbrokers. swore they had loaned Chief Case money while he was In of fee. The former was still unpaid and the latter had notes amounting to $230 still unpaid.

 the suit. Mayor Pat J. Lyons testified

We're taken with their requests for material.
This week bids have been asked for an i'm
mense quantity of American Portland cement
and some agents OF foreign makers of cement
have asked If the imported material would be
accepted. Their appeals have been somewhat
urgent, but the canal authorities in Washington
have invariably replied that no change would
be made in the specifications as submitted from
the isthmus, and that the bidding must be linn
ited to American Portland cement since the
contract would be awarded for that material
Bids for all else will be rejected without con-
sideration.
The Canal Commission has recently made a
change In its purchasing representative in New

has submitted suggestion that his Office be
transferred from New Orleans to Mobile. This
is backed by the petitions of business men of
