ARCHITECT TAKES
BIDDER TO TASK
Electrical Contractor Had Made
Insinuations About City
Hall Work.

Contending that the insinuations %
alleged unfair treatment accorded him
were uncalled for a demand was made
upon Samuel s. Brouwer, an electric
contractor, at meeting of the build
ing committee of the Orange Common
Council last night for an apology. The
contractor intimated that he had not
bid-under fair conditions for the cleo
trio work on the Orange City Hall.
Goodwin Goldsmith, architect in
charge of remodeling the old Day
Street School for use as municipal
building, disagreed with the con-
tractors.
Mr.. BrouWer was an unsuccessful
bidder for the work, George r. Boyce
having won the contract at a figure
away below the professor Mr.. Cold
smith had Mr.. Boyce bring his speci-
tlcations to the meeting and after ex-
planning Mr.. Brouwer had a duplicate
copy he went over the printed mat
ter to show his critic was plainly in
error.
Mr.. Goldsmith's anger was aroused
by the persistence of Mr.. Brouwer in
demanding that he see the exact copy
of, the specifications he had figured
upon, and which he claims he had
marked for identification and the
architect assured the unsuccessful
bidder he must be prepared to with
draw his remarks upon examination
of the specifications he had utilized.
Another controversy before the
committee was aroused by Plumbing
Inspector Thomas Dowling's decision
that larger vent be used as result
of installing extra accommodations
for prisoners and Chairman Patrick
A Quinn announced following the
discussion that Mr.. Bowling evident
ly is in the right and the plumbing
contractor, who is doing the work for
the Pauly Cell makers will likely
have to spend an extra $50 for the
larger pipe and boxing.

Several Lawmakers Found to
Be Personally Interested
in Legislation.

w WASHINGTON, June 10.-Though
some doubt has been thrown upon
the presence of an "insidious" tariff
lobby at Washington, the senatorial
investigation of itself seems to have
brought to light one thing-that sew
eral millionaire senators have a
direct personal interest in the tariff.
These senators disclaim. however,
that they would be swayed by per-
sonal interests in their vote on a
tariff measure.
There are at least three great
lumber barons in the Senate-Smith
and Jackson, of Maryland, and
Stephenson, of Wisconsin. Lumber
has been one of the great bones of
contention in tariff legislation.
Senator Newlands, of Nevada, is a
millionaire and an extensive mine
owner. Thus he has a personal in
terest in the tariff, as the products
of the mines are important items in
the Underwood bill.
Senator Warren. of Wyoming, has
been referred to in Senate debates as
"the greatest shepherd since David"
Certainly he has vast sheep-raising
interests, and the wool tariff means
much to him.
Through the Mormon Church, SEN
ator Smoot, of Utah, is extensively
interested in industries directly af-
fected by the tariff, while Senator
Gronna, of North Dakota, is said to
own the largest wheat field in the
world.
It is admitted that the members of
the investigating committee have
little personal interest in tariff legis-
lation. The members of this COM
mittee are Overman, of North Caro-
lima; Cummins of Iowa; Walsh, of
Montana; Nelson, of Minnesota, and
Reed of Missouri. All except Walsh
are LAWYERS.

ACCURATE BASIS
IN RATE MAKING
Justice Hughes Lays Down
Principles in Minnesota Cases
Approved by Lawyers.

WASHINGTON. June 10.--Lawyers
who gathered today at the Supreme
Court to listen to the application Of
the principles laid down by Justice
Hughes, in the Minnesota rate cases
to the rate cases from Missouri,
Arkansas, Kentucky, Oregon and
West Virginia. were OF the opinion
that Matchmaking. both in the states
and before the federal government,
had been reduced to o much more ac-
curate basis than ever before
All sorts Of opinions prevailed as
to where the victory rested in the
Minnesota decision. Minnesota state
officials in dispatches expressed their
pleasure over the result, and Attor-
ney-G General McReynoids and MEM
bers of the Interstate Commerce
Commission said they were fully
satisfied. The prospect of Congress
taking charge of State rates affect
ing interstate commerce indirectly
lent encouragement to the railroads
that they would escape from regula-
ton by IS State commissions.
The attempt of railroads to estab-
lish the cost Of reproducing their
property, knew as equivalent TO the
fair value" on which they were en-
titled to earn rates, was regarded as
doomed. The Federal Court in
Minnesota adopted that basis. 1t
allowed the railroad to multiply the
normal market value of land by two
to arrive at the cost of reproducing
s..I.4 - adj of ia
big cities in that State.
Justice Hughes held that there was
no place for hypothetical multipliers
in determining the fair value" of
railroad property upon which the
public must pay a return, and that
the railroads ought to be satisfied il
| fair average market price" was
given to their land, free from any
Hypothetical additions. That would
allow railroads to enjoy the benefit
of the general prosperity Of the coun-
| try by receiving a return not only
upon their original investment, but
on the increase in the value of their
| investment.
Where the inquiry is as to the fair
value of the property said Justice
| Hughes, Gin order to determine the
reasonableness of the return allowed
| by the rate-making power, it is not
admissible to attribute to the prop
erty owned by the carriers a specu-
| lative increment of value, over the
amount invested in it, and beyond
the value of similar property owned
| by others solely by reason of the fact
that 1t is used in the public service.
That would be to disregard the essen
tial conditions Of the public and to
make the public use destructive of
the public right"
