SITE FOR BUILDING
LOCATION OF THE PosToFFIcE IN
 MOBILE.
Let At Conti And Royal Streets Is Only One That Will Be Offered to
 The Government.

Mobile, June 25---(SpeciaI)- )--The bids to sell the United States Government a site for the proposed new postoffice building will be opened in Washington city tomorrow afternoon at o'clock.
 The government reserves the right to reject any CT all bids and even though there should be but one bid, the award may not be made for some time.
 In years past when the question Of a new postoffice was started there were usually several sites suggested, the principal ones being the Cawthon lot on Conception Street and St. Francis Streets, the old Peerless Laundry site at Conti and Royal Streets and the Northwest corner of Royal and Govern ment.
 The government was slow to take hold of the matter and it was not until the last term of Congress that any ap- propriation. for the purchase of site was made,
 In the meantime a $25o. 900 hotel was erected on the Cawthon lot and the Government and Royal Street site pass ed into the hands of persons who pre- fer to hold 1t and profit by the i'm creased values that will follow the pur- chase of the Cont and Royal site by the government. So it is probable that there will be but one bid submitted to the government architects tomorrow, and that will be for the Cont ana Royal Streets property.
 The results will be waited with Inter est here as marking the first step in an official recognition Of Mobiles growing importance.

 Several sailing vessels and at least one steamer now make this trip direct. The placing of the steamer Louise Dolive" in the trade between the island and Cuba will form another direct line for passenger travel via Havana ana across Cuba by rail
 The field offers a very flattering prospect for development One of the largest fruit growing companies on the island is composed of Buffalo men, who are associated with the steamer line from Mobile. The plantations of this syndicate will come into full bearing in the fall of 1909. They have this year been shipping egg plants and onions with fine financial results and next year then grapefruit, oranges ana bananas will be in bearing.
 The members of this syndicate are interested in promoting trade with Mobile in order that their vessels may secure return cargoes. They declare that the Isle of Pines is the only earth. ly paradise in reach of all overworked produce merchants, retired farmers or others looking for profit and ease.

 laVen Terribly Burned

Pensacola, Fla. June 25--(Special.)-- With difference Of only two voLos separating them J. Walter Keho and Dannitte fl. Mays, the two candidates for Congress from the Third Congress sional District will remain. in uncev4 ta1nty until the vote of the recent prt- mary is officially canvassed by the Congressional Committee.
 Up to last night Mays led kehoe by twenty votes. but the vote of Calhoun County was eanvassed by the Exscu- tive Committee of that county, result. ing in. eighteen votes being thrown out, and thus reducing the majority Of Mays to two votes.
 The race Is thus the closest ever known in Florida, and\ has attracted attention throughout the State. Both candidates claim irregularities in cer tain counties. and until these irreE- ularities are passed upon by the Con gressionai Committee the result will remain in doubt.
 Mir. Kehoe claims that when the committee canvasses the returns Of Leon County 1t will be compelled to throw out several precincts, as more votes wer boiled than there are rcgiss tered voters.
 The managers for Mays make the same claim in certain counties carried bv kehoe and 1t is anticipated that the result will be one Of the most bit- ter election contests ever experienced in Florida.

 This was done upon the recommend. ation of the Board of Bond Trustees. the latter stating that the present equipment Is insufficient to meet the demands and that new pumps, costing over $1o.o00 each are necessary, as well as an extension of the mains, the total amounting to S57.000
 The taking over of the plant. which has been purchased at a cost of @l87.- 800. Is the first move on the part of the city towards municipal ownership of public utilities. and as a result there is much interest
