Justice Anderson Decides Case In
COmmissiOners' Favor.
The action Of the Commissioners in ac-
cepting the bid Of the Davis Construction
Company for the addition to Armstrong
Manual Training School, although the bid
arrived late and was opened after one
bid had already been considered. is up
held by decision Of Justice Anderson,
Of the District Supreme Court, yesterday.
The case came before Justice Anderson
in the form Of a petition by the Melton
Construction Company. asking that the
Commissioners be restrained from ac-
cepting the Davis bid.
Justice Anderson fled no opinion or
memorandum of reasons for his decision.
He merely signed an order discharging
the rule and declaring the plaintiff had
failed to make out a case calling for the
restraining Of the District authorities.

Reforms.
New York, July 15.-When George Gould
returns from Europe to his Offices, 165
Broadway, he may be surprised to find
himself still more isolated from his prop
critics than at any time since he attempt
ed the running OF his fathers system
of railroads.
For the first time in twenty-five years
there are no private wires running from
Missouri Pasihcs New York offices to St
Louis. President Bush has concluded that
in the future ne can dispense with these,
inasmuch as he intends to run the prop
erty from st. Louis. Hereafter when
of1cialdom at 165 Broadway wants to
communicate with Mr.. Bush it will use
the commercial wires or the slower serv-
ice provided by the United States mails.
Mr.. Bush expects to save about $4,000
per annum in private wire charges, and
incidentally provide against the possibil-
ity Of misdirected interference with az
fairs OF operation, such as in the past
has cost the company indirectly many
times that amount.
