MAY RESUBMIT CANAL. BIDS
Mdger to Decide on Legality of
Double Form Proposals.
10y rELraRApH TO THE TRIBUNE. J

Albany. Jan. 6.-The canal bids that have been
submitted for the first six sections of the canal
may have to be resubmitted as result of the
question of the legality OF the item and lump
sum bids, the discussion over which has already
been told exclusively In The Tribune. Attorney
General Mayer will be asked to decide on the
legality of the submission by the same con-
tractor OF both item and lump sum bids. This
question is the direct result of ex-Attorney Gen
eral Cunneen's insistence on including both
forms of bids in the contracts offered to the
construction companies which submitted bids.
Attorney General Mayer will also have to de-
eide the question OF which form OF bid is actually
law. II he decides that the method followed was
illegal, then the bids will all have 10 be thrown
out and the contracts readvertised, with conse-
quent delay to the construction. N. V. v.
Franchot, who began his work as superintendent
of Public Works to-day. declared that he pur-
posed making a complete study of the whole
question and all the steps taken by his predeces-
sor, Charles S. Boyd with whom he had long
conference to-day, before he reached any de-
cision. In any event it seems likely that the
whole matter Will be thoroughly thrashed out.

to the right Of Lieutenant Governor P. L.

declare him the duly elected Governor of Delaware
even though the legislature has not effected an

The new constitution adopted in 1897. specifically
states that the certificates of election Immediately

organization and should there be only the
Democratic members present which would fall six
members short Of quorum even two or three

same IL the entire membership were present

here tonight, however. that organization will
be effected the first of the week, and the General
