REPLY TO qROUP PETITION.

CONTINUED from First Pase,)
construction is questioned and calling
for bids will put the matter beyond
controversy, and will give all of our
citizens who do such work an equal OPP
portunity to secure contracts, 1t would
be better in the future to call for bids
for such repairs.
Respectfully yours,
The Board of Finance.
Mr.. Fredericks reply to the charges
against him is addressed to His Honor
Mayor Studley and the members of the
board Of finance and in it he says
1.-THE criticism which was made at the
last meeting of the board of finance
concerning the selling Of corned beef
to the city by one George Goelz, who, it
is claimed, is none other than the rep
resentative of Frederick Brothers, that
l am a member of the firm of Frederick
Brothers, and that thereby the charter
Of the city was violated upon my part,
requires, in justice TO myself and to the
public, a reply.
az desire to state at the outset that
there has not been, either directly or
indirectly upon my part, any violation
of the charter. Neither George Goelz
nor Henry j. Frederick represented me
directly or indirectly in any Of these
transactions, nor have 1 at any time
benefited by any Of them, The store at
253 Davenport avenue, conducted UNI
der the name of Frederick Brothers,
where George Goelz is employed is run
and owned by Henry ]. Frederick. The
store corner Derby avenue and Norton
street is conducted and owned by my
self and Is independent of the store of
Henry j. Frederick. No corned beef has
at any time been sold or delivered from
my store in Derby avenue to the city
of New Haven, nor did 1 have any in
terest in any of the corned beef which
was sold to the city of New Haven
through George Goelz.
There is no co-partnership of Fred
erick hers in existence, except in
the old co-partnership OF Frederick
BROTHERS, which formerly consisted of
Henry j., Philip L, and Edward G.
Frederick, and such partnership is
maintained simply for the purpose of
liquidating an old Indebtedness grow
ing out of such former co-partnershlp.
All Of the goods in the Derby avenue
store are my property and.are bought
and paid for by me. All of the receipts
taken in in the Derby avenue store are

nest Averiil, and the latter will give the
oath to the warden and burgesses. 1t
is expected thatthe borough voters will
make the tax the same as at present =
five mills. This does not allow any,
thing to reduce the debt Of $4,000, wl;ich
lis likely to go as an inheritance to the
city when the borough territory be-
comes united to the city organization
completely. 1t is possible that the mat
ter Of new engine house may be dis
cussed, but the meeting win hardly be
prepared to vote. an appropriation in
this line as 1t. is not in the regular
call.
There will be a meeting of the Eccle-
siastical society Of the Pilgrim church
next Wednesday evening, when the
bids for the new chapel will be consid-
cred. 1t was stated yesterday that 1t
was contemplated to cut away the
church wall at the south side Of the
building and use five feet of that struc-
ture as a part of the new chapel. That
Will take away the pulpit platform and
the first row of pews. The building
committees lowest bid for the chapel is
$4,000, which is $4,000 less than the peo-
pie Of the church expected it could be
built for. There was a straw vote on
the matter Of accepting and adopting
the committees report at the church
meeting Wednesday, and that was IA
vorable to its adoption. But the church
has no authority to let the contract,
which is solely in the jurisdiction Of the
ecclesiastical society; and at the meet
ing as many women voted as men, and
they have no right to vote in the mat
ter of letting building contract. 1t is
expected that the report of the building
committee will be adopted Wednesday
evening.
The new temporary bridge over the
railroad cut at the foot of Wall street,
and leading from State street into
Grand VENUE, was used for the first
time terday Until the new perma-
nent bridge over the new cut is built
this temporary bridge will be used for
the Grand avenue, the Montowese and
the Wallingford cars. Yesterday after
noon workn1en were removing the
tracks from the old bridge and the
overhead wiring preparatory to remov-
ing the old structure. There were a
number of mistakes caused by lack of
information about the new bridge,
Some who did not know about the new
bridge attempted to alight from the
car when it was known that it kept
along on State street, and others, be-
lieving the car would continue in State

mine. All Of the goods in the Daven-
port avenue store are Henry j. Freder-
iek's property and are bought and paid
for by him. All of the receipts taken
in the Davenport avenue store are
his" Some further minor explanatory
statements are also made
In conclusion Mr.. Frederick says:
II might further add that as a result
of this agitation, Henry j. Frederick
has concluded not to sell any more beef
to the city, but has made a contract
with Armour & Go. to sell to them for
five cents a pound the same corned beef
which he has been furnishing the city
for three and one-half cents.
I'm one respect this controversy has
been unfortunate, and that is, that the
superintendent of charities will find it
much more difficult in the future to
buy corned beef at the old price, to
wit: Three and one-half cents.
No claim is made as 1 understand 1t,
that the city has been defrauded or
overcharged in any of these transaU-
tions.
I'm conclusion I desire to say that
there Is nothing in my entire course as
a member of the board Of finance,
which can now recall, which requires
from me any apology. / have always
endeavored to work for the best inter-
ests of the city and to see to- it that the
charter was not violated, either by my
self Of by any one else.
What I have herein stated I am
ready to verify at any time and I court
the fullest investigation Of my conduct
in this matter as well as In any mat
ter having relation to my connection
with the city as member Of this
board.
Respectfully submitted,
Edward G. Frederick"

The street work on the Mccarthy
company's Pasadena City Heights
tract is being done very much in the
same manner as the Oneonta park and
the Oak Knoll street work, under the
Pasadena city specifications. Good
progress is being made in this beauti-
full and ideal tract, that is attracting
considerable attention. An advance
sale of twenty-one lots has been made,
which is considered an exceedingly
good sale considering the interference
of weather and the fact that not even
the printed maps have yet. been pub
lished. one particular feature of the
property is the large lots into which
it has been divided.
