Death House Bids Drop
$l82, 900 in Few W eeks
Sole One Received at Sing Sing
on First Call Too High; New
Ones Within Appropriation

OSS1NING, N. Y, Nov. 27.-Officials
of Sing Sing prison announced to-day
that bids just opened for the new
death house were lower by SlS2,000
than the only response received sew
eral weeks ago when proposals first
were sought.
At that time contractors we're asked
to submit bids covering the entire job
including construction, sanitation, wiz
ing and heating. The only bid sub
mitted was that Of firm which offered
to do the work for $A67 900.
AS the state had allowed only s325,-
600 for the new building, Lewis F
Pitcher, State Architect, decided that
this bid was excessive and recently ad-
vertiscd the contract again, this time
asking for separate bids on construc-
ton, sanitation. wiring and heating
work.
The lowest bidders are: For con-
struction, George Colon & Co., $224,-
8o2; for sanitary work, the John Kenny
Company, 10000; for wiring, l. Fajans
Inc, SS,547; fox heating, the ALB. Barr
Company, 800 The total is 1884
939. Whether revelations made before
the Lockwood committee are directly
responsible or whether the decrease in
contractors estimates is due to dcclin-
ing costs of materials nobody in au-
thority can say.

Courthouse Site Dumping
Brought On BY LAWSUIT
Permission Giren After Con-
tractor Failed; Haulers Sup
nOSed 10 Kenmore Ashes Later

A search Of the court snd city rec
ords yesterday casts somewhat diff
ferent light on the circums tances
surrounding the dumping Of ashes on
the site of the new courthouse. The
removal Of these ashes in preparation
for the erection of the new courthouse
is said to be costing the city approxi-
mately 100000.
In testimony before the Lockwood
situation it developed that one of the
firms that dumped ashes on the site
was Holland e. Co., which had ash re-
moval contracts with the city. Grover
A. Whalen, Commissioner of the De
partment of Plant and Structures, tes-
titled that he at one time had half
interest in this firm, but gave up this
interest "by mutual agreement in
August, 1917, five months before he be-
came Mayor Hylan's secretary.
Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the
Lockwood committee. has suggested
that the city employ Independent coun-
sci to sue Holland & Co. and Commits
sioner Whalen for the recovery Of the
money tne city is expending for again
clearing up the site
Litigation Over Equipment
The matter, it appears, dates back
to the early part of 1918, when the
firm of DAILY & lvins, which had the
contract for removing ashes to Rikcr's
Island in scows after it had been taken
to the wharves, went into bankruptcy.
Under clause In the contract the
city seized as much of the firms equip
ment as it could find. The receiver in
bankruptcy then took court action to
compel the city to turn the equipment
back to him. The action was brought
before Judge Learned Hand, who or
dered the city to return the equipment
to the receiver or pay $3.50 a month
for its use.
The matter came before the Board
Of Estimate, the majority of whom
thought it advisable to pay the $1,000
troller Craig, however, d scented. He
insisted on appealing from Judge
Hands decision, and got stay from
Judge Manton pending the appeal. The
action, however, tended to completely
tie up the equipment, resulting in the
loss to the city Of the use of the plant
for the disposal of its ashes.
In desperation, the city gave g num-
Der of contractors, Of whom Holland &
Co. was one, the right to dump ashes
on the courthouse site. AS a precau-
tionary measure, however, it was sug
cested to the city officials at the time
that the contractors dumping ashes on
the site be required to furnish bond
binding them to remove these ashes
when circumstances permitted. This
bond was never exacted, however, with
the result that the city is now forced
to remove the ashes at its own expense
Mr.. Cntermyer announced yesterday
the addition Of William A. DeFord to
the legal staff of the committee. Mr.
DeFord will take part in the criminal
prosecutions growing out of the inquiry
particularly in connection with alleged
combines and violators of the antitrust
laws. He is A former Assistant Dis
trct Attorney. and is said to be counsel
for William Randolph Hearst, whose
newspapers have been attacking the in
vestigation and the committees chief

"If the city withheld warrants fol-

farmers against unfair conditions were growing in
stead Of lessening.
Senators and representatives from the South re-
ported that the ruin of the cotton farmers in their
sections threatened to involve the whole business
world and that wholesale bank failures in Okla
homa threatened to become general throughout the
southern states unless immediate aid could be Sc
cured.
In both the West and South bank failures, re-
ported from dozen states, including North Dakota
Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado and Iowa, were traced
directly to the farmers "holding movement" in
wheat and cotton. AS Congressman John M. Baer
of North Dakota pointed out, the failure of one
bank creates more attention in the business world
than the failure of thousand farmers. The fact
that farmers refused to sell their products at less
than the cost of production meant that the banks
could not secure needed money. It also meant
which banks had made large loans Bankers and
