Rejection of Lowest
Proposals
BIDDER THREATENS
Sarnuels Declares His Firm
Is Disseminated
Against
BIDDER THREATENS

AT yesterdays meeting of the board
Of supervisors j. W. Schouten Of the
Schouten lumber company. the lowest
bidder on many items of lumber TO
be furnished to the city, stated that he
had been informed that Supervisor Cola
man had expressed his intention to OBJ
ject to the award of contracts for lum-
ber with view to having the bids re-
jected and making the purchases in the
open market.
'I want a square deal here" said
Schouten, land will protest against the
throwing out of my bids as they were
last year when I was also the lowest
bidder"
Acting Mayor Gallagher, who pre-
sided. asked Schouten who had told him
that the bids would be rejected and
Schouten refused to give the name Of
his informant.
Thereupon Supervisor Nicholas said
that he had told Schouten's partner
that Coleman had said he would object
to the acceptance of the bids. Cole
man said that he had so stated because
he believed lumber could be purchased
more cheaply In the open market.
We'll, 1 knew the value of lumber
when you were cutting your eye teeth"
said Nicholas to Coleman.
81 insist that my bids be accepted as
they are from sS to SO below the rul-
ing market quotations" said Schouten.
why, your company is in the hands
of receiver" said Coleman, who is
connected with a rival lumber com :
pany, which may account for his op-
position to Schouten's bids.
We'll, we would not be in the hands
of receiver if the city would pay us
the $2S,000 for lumber furnished the
board of education to build school
houses after the disaster" retorted
Schouten.
Gallagher said that no supervisor was
privileged to foretell what the action
of the board would be on any bids.
The bids, together with large number
of others for supplies, were taken
under advisement.
More trouble arose when 1t was pro-
posed to award the contract for
white blankets to Greenbaum, Well 6
Michaels, firm represented by Super
visor Coleman's brother, although the
bid was not the lowest fled
Am I to understand that my firm
cannot get any business here?" asked
D. Samuels, land that we are being
Disseminated against?"
You are not to understand anything
of the Sort" said Gallagher angrily.
your remarks are very impertinent."
They are meant to be-" said Sam
uels, "and I will get satisfaction some
where else If not here"
Gallagher ordered the sergeant at
arms to be close at hand to suppress
any further hostilities and the meeting
adjourned until next Tuesday morning.

Their friends say the canal will be q

kept on the isthmus through political

He discharged incompetent men and
was compelled to take them back as
soon as they could communicate with
senator's, cabinet officers or other
friends.
After Stevens had ousted dozens Of
men only to receive peremptory orders
to reinstate them he finally threatened
to resign and the president Immediately
accepted his resignation. Now Major
