OPPOSITION AGAINST WHITE &

Sentiment wholly has changed. and
. those who originally signed the tele-
grams Of protest now willingly are
sending REQUESTS 10 MI Sells asking
for a hearing where the whole matter
can be thrcshed out and an agreement
reached satisfactory 20 all concerned.
Many prominent oil men are not
signing telegrams for the hearing, but
they are urging others to do so. and
those who, a few days ago, bitterly
opposed White q Sinclair, now are
their wdrmcst supporters.
The entire matter seemed to be
acted upon wholly without consider

after more sober thought ana con-
scryatiyC reflection, the wind has
blown round in a different direction.
Among the oil men who are fair
minded there can be no objection TO
a hearing where both sides Of the
question can be openly discussed.

ator for years In every field In the

Some operators take the position

FIRE ENGINE BONDS
SELL AT 1887 PREMIUM.

was held last night for the pur-
pose Of opening bids for the city
bond issue of 1850 and bids ON
furnishing the city with a mo
tor fire engine.
The bonds sold very satisfactory.
Infringing a premium of 1887
or a total of 1887. The Hanchett
Bond Co, of Chicago, were the
best bidders, with a Cincinnati
firm only 81 under them. Nine
bids were received.
-Four companies sent in bids on
the engine. The council will
meet again tonight to go over the
specifications and will be assisted
by Mr.. Knox, of the Kentucky
Actuarial Bureau. Specifications
rather than price will govern the
committee in the matter of decid-
ing on a machine. Bids submit
ed were, as follows, which will
give one an idea of the approx
mate cost of the engine:
Robinson Fire Apparatus Mfg.
Co, $500 to 81, AS.
American La France Co..

Seagrave Fire Engine Co.,
30, 700 and $4,000.
Ahrens-Fox Co., 5000 and
81 800.
The contract for this machine
will be let at meeting of the
board next Monday. AT the same
time, the board will probably G.
lect a fire chief from among the
applicants for this position.
