WE'RE NOT FAR APART.
Engineers Estimate and Actual Cost
of Fifth Ward Sewer.

The actual cost of the Fifth ward
sewer was above the engineers esti-
mate by $922.19.
The bond issue for the sewer pro-
contractors, Brooks & Gilmore, re-
ceived $55, ,966.09 and the usual en-
gineer's four per cent which is always
figured in to meet the cost OF survey
and other incidentals amounted TO
S2293.49. But the balance between
the actual cost of construction and the
bond issue was only $1,371.30-not
sufficient to cover the four per cent for
engineering and incidentals. 1t was
$92219. too low. The actual cost and
the estimate was therefore fairly
close-as close as many engineering
estimates get. But the first and
original estimate should have covered
the construction of the sewer in a
manner such that it would be Of satis-
factory service to all parts of the dis
trict which it was attempted to serve.
A statement appeared in morning
paper that the cost of the sewer had
been over 100000 and that the sewer
estimate was $4,000. This statement
is incorrect. The above are the actual
figures as they appear on the vouchers
issued and on file in the Office of the
city clerk and the city treasurer.
The bonds are issued and based on
the city engineers estimate and for
that reason it is impossible to make
the bond issue exactly meet the actual
cost of construction The estimate is
supposed to be within a very few dol
lars. however. OF the actual cost and
the bond issue is therefore relatively
correct If the bond issue is not ample
to meet the whole four per cent
charge for engineering incidentals the
CITY must bear this loss, if it is more it
gains. This four per cent is turned
into the city treasury and credited to
the general improvement fund. The
four per cent does not go to the city
engineer. This fact must be clearly
understood. 1t goes to the city to
meet the extra and additional ex-
pense that the city is forced to incur
in the way of hiring sewer inspectors
and in engineering the work.
J. c. Ellis. the civil engineer in
charge of the investigation, made a
visit to the Fourth ward sewer exten-
sion this morning. He will not be
until the latter part OF the week.

GIVE 1T A BOOST.
Promoters of Nebraska, Kansas &
Southwestern Railway Meet.

A meeting of the directors of the Ne
braska, Kansas & Southwestern rail-
way was held at the Throop hotel In
this city last night for the purpose of
discussing the plans for the construc-
ton of the road. Those present were
c. J. Shellenbarger of Ransom, J. Q.
Beloit, E. J. Williams of Stockton, and
A. S. FouTks of Ness, and these, with
]. c. Hopper of Ness City, are the off,
GERS of the new company.
F. T. Burnham, of Beloit, is the pro-
motor of the road, and it is expected
that when the road is built, it will
become the possession of the Missouri
Pacific or Union Pacific. though at the
present time there is no formal agree
ment for a transfer of the road.
The surveyors are now in the field
working on the location of the line and
it is expected that the work on the con-
struction of the roadbed will begin as
soon as spring opens. The money for
the construction will be raised by is
suing bonds of the road and by secur-
ing bonus bond issues from the various
townships through which the road will
be built.
The road will have its northern
terminus at Superior Neb., and the
line will extend through Stockton to
Ness City. and thence southwark to
Garden City and possibly to Trinidad
Col.
The people from western Kansas are
greatly interested in the project, and
they believe that within a year or two
the road will be ready for use.
