MUST TAKE CONTRACT
Waukegan Officials Refuse
to Allow Chris Peterson
to Give up Contracts.
WAS NOT The LOWEST BIDDER

The board of local improvements
of Waukegan held a meeting Friday
evening at which contracts were
awarded for eight public improve
ments for which bids were opened at
! the meeting of the board on Monday
night. In the majority Of instances
the contracts We're awarded to the
lowest bidders. The contracts were
awarded as follows:
Chris Peterson of .Kenosha was Civ
en- the contract for paving Ridgeland
avenue upon his bid Of $7,148.50.
| Chris Peterson of Kenosha was Civ
en- the contract for the paving of
Hickory street upon his bid of
Sc, 727.57.
The board awarded the contracts for
| the paving Of two streets to Contrac-
tor Peterson in spite of the fact that
he had requested that the board should
not hold him to his bid. He informed
Commissioner Orvis that he had made
mistake in submitting his bids, but
said that he would do the work if the
city insisted upon it. In his bids he
specified Bermudes asphalt-the most
expensive kind-while the other bid
ders had specified cheaper quality.
/ The members Of the board were es-
pecially anxious to award him both
contracts because Bermudes asphalt
never has been tried in Waukegan
and there are several who have ex-
pressed desire to have it tried out
here as it has given splendid success
in other cities where it has been tried
Contractor Peterson informed Com
missioner Oryis that he was sorry he
had his bid on the local work as he has
several large contracts to fulfill and
intimated that it would be some time
before he could take up the work in
Waukegan. In one instance Mr.. Pet
erson's bid was few dollars higher
than the bid submitted by Contractor
Cape, but because he hal specified
Bermudes asphalt he was given the
contract. The board felt he should
he held to his contract,

NO FIGHT FOR MARcaEsI CHILD.
Little Daughter Will Remain With
Associated Charities.

There is not going to be any court
battle over the custody of little Anita
Marchesi, the three and a half year
old daughter of Pasquale Marcel hest who
is now serving term in the state
prison. Before going to prison Mar
chest himself consented to the child
being left as ward Of the Associated
Charities, but he refused to sign any
waver which would permit the child
being adopted. He insisted that he
would claim possession of the little
girl after he had been released from
prison. The attorneys for Marchesi
had demanded in court that the child
be turned over to Frank Marchesi. her
uncle, but this plan is not to be fol
lowed, The brother himself has agreed
to allow the child to remain where she
is. At present the little girl is living
with Mrs Chase at the English Court
and the officials of the charitable or
ganization declare that they will have
no trouble finding home for her.
They hope that later the father will
consent to the child being adopted into
a Kenosha family.

morning last, started work as con-
ductor on the Chicago and Milwaukee
Electric and spent the day being
broken in, according to his wife S
report to the Kenosha police, has dis
appeared and she has asked their aid
in locating him. The Chicago police,
as well as the north shore police, were
seen by Ier and a search is being
made although other employees Of the
company do not believe anything has
happened to him, concluding that he
merely has gone away for few days.
He had no money of the company of
consequence and officials deny sensa-
tional story that "a conductor disap-
peared with considerable money be-
longing to the company.
Brown is % years old and seemed
a likeable fellow, one who would not
desert his fife, and who, according to
her statement, would surely let her
know where he was if he was able to
do so. She fears foul play. Company
employees declare he merely did not
like his first days job as conductor
