"A special meeting Of the City Assembly
has been called for tomorrow night
when the question Of changing the con-,
tract OF the Roberts Filtering Company,
{whichHis to build the clear water plant
will be considered The company has
been unable to find any security company
which was willing to guarantee the work
4 for five years. and the contract Will
likely be so changed as to have q guar
antee for one year, and this bond to be
annually renewed for five years.
Mr.. Roberts, head OF the Roberts Com
tpany, has seen the members OF the Clear
Water Committee and the Water Com
$1nissioners, and has frankly stated that
his company was unable to furnish the
fve-year guarantee. He says that when
the contract was drawn he was under
tho impression that the guaranty COM
years on contract work, but after tho
making OF the contract he found out
differently. IN s & V VI
55 The foundation for, the work has begun
and the renl construction work waits
the action of the Council, # IA
\. II the Assembly accepts the one-year
bond. tho Board OF Aldermen will have
to concur In It. and there Is likely to be
a stubborn fight in either branch.
In other words the clear water scheme
lis likely to be held up for several mont ms
because OF this flaw5in the contract, or
rather because OF the Roberts Company's
Inability to furnish the bond. n The whole
the other companies that bid for the
work may demand another hearing.
