That lovely yarn yesterday to the

brought the desired results. President

of the story, giving the jaded experts
material for another days work.
Thomas denial really amounts to
nothing. Not that Charles H is I'M

will apply the hook to the manager,

day with an offer to battle Kid Gas
treich. Dwight still refuses to con-
cede the two pounds demanded by
Gastreich and will not let his man
fight unless the Weights fixed at 122
pounds.
There is little chance of an agree
ment. Gastreich has found an OPP
ponent at 118 pounds, which just
suits him, and has passed up the
West Slider. Mediation is off between
these two. Watchful waiting is. the
only policy to pursue.

TO AWARD
CONTRACT PUZZLES
Orange Fire Commissioner to
Get Opinion from City coun-
sci Seymour.

The Orange Fire Commission will
receive an opinion tonight from City
Counsel Arthur Is. Seymour as to
whether the awarding of the contracts
for motor fire apparatus IS to be
left TO the Board of Commissioners
who were elected on Tuesday. The
fire board held special meeting last
night and tried to settle the question,
but without avail.
The question hinges upon a legal
point involving the sale of bonds
which have been issued to finance the
SIS, 800 project. DR.. +. Myrell Plum
mer, president of the body, who alone
favored allowing the new municipal
officials to award the contracts, sup
ported his argument last night with
the contention that the bonds must
be sold and the money in the hands
of the city before the apparatus is
ordered.
Commissioner Matthew Chalmers,
who led the fight to have the outgoing
board complete the project which they
originated, held that this procedure
was not followed by the council where
there were contracts to be awarded
and pointed out that a delay at the
present time might mean added ex-
pense when action was finally taken,
as Il6 Oll6IS OI iIldlls VI AllS dbIo
concerns whose bids have been I'M
der consideration by the board for
several weeks could not be held open
indefinitely. He also declared that
the council and Mayor Murray eX-
pressed their confidence in the boards
ability to handle the business of pur-
chasing the apparatus when they
passed and approved the ordinance
authorizing the issue of the bonds.
1t was then decided to await an
opinion from Mr.. Seymour as to the
boards right to complete the nego-
tiations, and, should he report favor
ably, it is probable that the contracts
will be let by the present commission,
either tonight or within the next few
days. This must be done before next
Tuesday, when, with the advent of
the five new commissioners, the
board will officially pass out of ex-
istence.
