LAS CRUCES is LOSER

Santa Fe, Sept 23.-Judge William
H. Pope in federal court today decided
against the town of Las Cruces its suit
against the National Surety company
to recover on the $4,000 bond given
for the satisfactory performance of the
contract awarded by the town to
Bash and Gray, for the construction
of municipal water works and sewers.
The town claimed $75115 damages
unpaid for leaving the streets without
backfilling the trenches; 1851 for leak
age of water pipes and $9916 for leak
age and repair of an oil tank. Judge
Pope held that the town had ordered
material changes in the contract with
out notice to the Surety company,
thereby releasing it from its obliga-
ton. The contract, originally for $751;
600 had been increased by extensions
and alterations to $4,000 thus adding
that much to the liability of the sure
