PAVING PRICES HIGHER.
Contractors Say Labor and Material
Are Costing More.


Are Costing More.
Paving and repaving contracts arc
going at much higher prices than last
year. public Works Commissioner
Haarer has tried readyertising the con
tracts for streets where he thought
the bids were too high. but he got
very little reduction. Contractors say
that materials are costing them more
and that labor Is scarce and higher
priced. Under the circumstances, "
Is unlikely that bids will be lower
during the season. one effect OF tho
higher labor Cost has been TO bring
cedar and brick paving nearer together
in cost. the average price being about
s225 per square yard for cedar and
1893 for brick CEDAR paving costs
more than the latter figure in some
cases. In his annual estimates FOX

Haarer has taken account OF these in

Will Fix Banks Rights.

Of the right Of a bank to appropriate
money standing to the personal account
OF deposition, although coming into his
hands as a trust fund, in payment of an

positOr; nor on what constitutes notice to

wide interest, with a decision Just hand.

in the Caroline Circuit Court, wherein
the Denton National Bank is required to
return to A. J. Kent, Of Harrington
Del, certain moneys appropriated by the
bank to pay an overdraft and an overdue
note Of an attorney, now dead who de
posted to his personal account a check
drawn to him as attorney, and stating on
its face that it was in settlement of a
mortgage held by Kenny.
Judge Hopper holds that the bank
had no notice of the true character of the
fund, although it was in evidence that an
official OF the bank was concerned in the
transaction whereby the mortgage was
transferred from Kenney to another.
Judge Adkins says the bank had construc-
tive notice, but both Judges take the
broad view that money in the hands Of
one person who cannot hold it in good /
faith against the person equitably entit-
