Price Exceeds the
Appropriation
Of $4,000.
BUT TWO BIDS RECEIVED
Special to the EVENING NEWS:

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. 21:-
The Board of Freeholders awarded
the contract, for tearing out 450 feet
of the Amboy bridge and putting in
three steel spans of 150 feet each, this
afternoon 10 the Snare & Trieste
Construction Company, of New York,

This exceeds the amount of S75,-
900 authorized, but the balance of
$4,240 WILL it is expected, be taken
from other funds.
The spans must be built in accord
ance with the plans approved by the
United States war department. The
steel spans, it is believed, will make
the bridge safe from the ice in the
winter and prevent repetitions of the
washouts which occurred two and
three winters ago.
Out of sixteen companies to whom
specifications were sent only two bid,
These were Dean, Schwiers & Sutton,
bid $S4.916. and Snare & Trieste
Construction Company, of New York,
bid $40, ,240. Both of these figures
are over the appropriation of
$4,000.
Bids for these alterations were re-
ceived by the Freeholders few
months ago. but were rejected be-
cause the lowest bid exceeded the
$4,000 authorized by the legisa~
ture to be spent. The Freeholders
then readvertised for new bids to be
opened today.
