Washington. Jan. 29.-FolloWlug a
conference at the White House last
night 1t was officially announced that

ment of last Friday night. President
Roosevelt then took the position that
since Mr.. Oliver had met all the re
quirement of the government it would
be unjust to reject his bid of SIS per
cent for the construction of the canal
or even to require him to submit d
new bid for the contract.
Mr.. Oliver had informed the preSi-
dent that it was his desire to submit
an independent bid for the work and
that when the canal commission Off
Gals informed him that it would be
necessary to form a partnership with
some other financially responsible con.
tractor they even went so far as to
suggest hat he enter INTO an agree.
ment with Arson NJ. Bangs of New
York city.
Get a Partner.
Mr.. Oliver said that after receiving
this suggestion from Chairman Shonts
he visited the war department, and
informed that Bangs would be en-
tirely satisfactory to the government.
Mr.. Oliver told the president that with
this assurance as to be reliability OF
Mr.. Bangs he immediately entered into
an agreement with the New York con-
tractor.
Powerful Influences were brought to
bear on the president NJ Secretary
Taft to reject all bids, and advertise
for new proposals, but the president
insisted that Mr.. Oliver should be
given a reasonable time in which to
make a satisfactory arrangement 10
substitute some other contractor or
group of contractors to take the place
of Mr.. Bangs.

than that of most others, it can no

could hardly prevent them.
