CITY ENGINEER IS
HOME FROM COAST
Explains Item of $9150 Bonus
Which He Allowed Con-
tractor Moran.
WHAT RECORDS OF HIS
OFFICE DISCLOSE In CASE
Completed Contract He Says
Days Before Time Would
Have Expired.

City Engineer L. C. Kelsey returned
from two weeks trip to the coast
yesterday, and made an explanation Of
the item of $3.50 for bonus which he
allowed P. J. Moran. contractor on the
Big Cottonwood conduit. for completing
his contract within the time specified
in the contract The contract provided
that Mr.. Moran should have a bonus
of $50 day for completing the con.
tract before July 10, 1905, and should
pay forfeit Of $3.50 day for every
day which should elapse without com
pleting the contract after that date.
Discussing the bonus item, Mr.. Kelsey
said:
Mr.. Moran has In his possession letter
the Morris administration board-di-
recting him to stop work on December "a
last. Our records show that he worked
January g. 10 arasfS ana H. ' when ae P9eq Stopped
him because OF the bad weather. which
| rendered II impossible to lay concrete. Our
records also show that he resumed work
on February 8 and continued up to and
including February 10, when | again
stopped him because changes in the plans
were under contemplation. These changes
were ultimately adopted and Moran re-
sumed work on April Z.
There elapsed from December "a. the
time that Moran was stopped. until April
Z. when he resumed work 104 days. This
extended the time Of his contract from
July Is to October II. but he actually
| finished the work on August 10. From
| the l04 days. however. must be deducted
| the four days he worked In January. and
| the fourteen days he worked in February.
which amounts to eighteen days. He was
| also stopped two days in April 20 allow
| some excavatlng to be done. which leaves
| a net deduction OF sixteen days TO be
| deducted from the 104 days, a balance
| of sS days during which work was actual
| ly stopped. He completed the contract 81
| days before the time 1t would have ex-
pired naturally, and is therefore entitled
| 10 a bonus for 81 days. The records OF
| my office and OF the Board of Public
| Works Will bear this out
The payment of the item for bonus
has been held up by Mayor Thompson
and City Auditor Alff, owing TO the
absence of Mr.. Kelsey from the city
and the matter has been referred to the
| Finance Committee Of the City Council
| for investigation. That committee will
meet tonight to take the matter up.
II is doubtful. hoAever, if Mr.. Kelsey
will be able TO appear before the com.
mittee tonight. He was forced to cut
short his trip to the coast on account
| of an acute attack of liver trouble
When he returned yesterday his face
was so yellow in appearance that i,
surprised and shocked his friends, and
he may have to take to his bed, Dur
ing his absence of two weeks Mr. Kel
sey visited San Francisco, Portland
| Seattle and Tacoma.
