period gained ~ points, selling at 23A

showed good strength and advanced III
points to 14is; Reading was quite active
and gained nearly a full point, selling al
147h and Rock Island stock began an.
other advance, touching 32h, a gain OF
3h points.
Bethlehem steel suffered further
sharp reaction as the result Of the an

This probably means considerable, II
not e total, realignment of the organ

Hentzeman carried sixteen OF the
twcnty-four wards In the city. He car
ried all the East Baltimore wards eX-
cept the Fourth; lost in all the North
and Northwest Baltimore wards, and.
beginning with the Eighteenth. carried
all those in Southwest and South Balti-
more.
The vote was very light all over the
city. as Mayor James Fl. Preston. the

conclusion.
Councilmen Augustus Caesar Bins

as almost invincible, was beaten fo

PRICE IS EXCESSIVE.
FOR POLICE COATS,
CLAIMS COMMITTEE
Change in Method Of Awarding
Contracts to Be Made by
Department.

That members of the Washington
police force have paid from their own
pockets 80 to $40 more for the same
grade of overcoats worn by policemen
of other cities Is one Of the findings of
a committee appointed by the Com
missioners to inquire into the purchase
of uniforms, it was stated.
Following the discovery that on Feb
ruary &C. the contract for supplying
pollcemcn's uniforms was awarded to
a Cincinnati firm without giving other
establishments an opportunity to sub
nit bids. a committee was appointed,
consisting of Capt. Roger G.. Powell,
assistant corporation counsel; Daniel
J. Donovan, deputy auditor, and Roger
G. Whiteford, assistant corporation
counsel.
Summoned As Witnesses.
One fact established Is that since 1906
the contract has been awarded by a
purchasing committee consisting of the
inspectors and captains all of whom
were summoned as witnesses before
the Investigating committee.
The investigating committee, it is
understood. is making a careful inquiry
into the comparative cost of uniforms
furnished the Washington force with
those of other cities, and will make a
lull report.
The total amount of the contract for
supplying uniforms to the Washington
force Is approximately $4,000.
Their statement, it was said, was
that the material furnished by the con-
tractors had proved satisfactory and was
as good as can be obtained in the open
market at the same price. Request
that thev be allowed to submit bids
we're received this year from n. Snellen-
burg, of Philadelphia: Jacob Reed Sons,
of Philadelphia, and Russell Uniform
Company, of New York. Beyond for
NAL Acknowledgement no notice, 1t was
stated was taken of their letters.
Buy Own Uniforms.
Under the statute policemen must pay
for their uniforms. The question hav-
ing arisen whether in view of this fact.
the commissioners could obligate them
to buy by contract from given firm,
the opinion was given in 1899 by the
attorney of the District that the Com
mssioners have no authority to make
the award. but that it was in the
hands of the major and superintendent.
Commissioner Brownlow, who has
supervision of the Police Department,
does not agree with this opinion hold
ing that except in cases of emergency.
no purchase involving large amounts
on public or uuas-public account should
be made except In open market and
after the submission of bids.
