PAVING CONTRACT.
Controversy Sprung Up Over the
Award for the Princess
Street Work. -
AUDIT AND FINANCE BOARD.
Competitive Bidders Appeared at Meeting
reaieroay Aiternoon nnd Claimed
They Did fjot Have Opportunity. ,
v Action Postponed.
It looks now as if there, may be
hitch in the Aldermanic proceedings
of a few nights ago in awarding the
contract for the Princess street paying.
The first serious intimation of an in
terruption came at the semi monthly
meeting; of the Board of .Audit, and
Finance yesterday afternoon, at which
Chairman H. C. McQueen ; presided
and Messrs.Jesse Wilder and B. P.
McNair were present -
The action of the Aldermen in con
curring In the award of the contract
bylhe Streets and Wharves Committee
to the Coal, Cemenfand Supply Com
pany at $3.05 per square yard, war re
ported and Messrs J. T. Riley and
Roger Moore, competitive biddem
were present to resist the necessary ap
proval of the bid by the Audit and
Finance Board.. Mayor Waddell was
present,-as chairman of the Streets
and Wharves Committee, and Mr.
S. P. Adams, : manager of the Coal,
Cement and Supply Company, 'with
Qis counsel. Judge iC K. Kryan, was
also present
Routine business, was first taken up
and after the transaction of various
and sundry' - items, ; including an ap
proval of the extra appropriation of
$350 for repairs to the roofs of the
Front street market house and City
Hall, -the street paving controversy
came on. Mayor Waddell - stated the
circumstances of the award and Chair
man McQueen asked if there was more
than one bid; that more than one bid
appeared to be necessary.
Mr. Roger Moore, of the firm of
Roger Moore's Sons & Co., read
a letter from the then acting chairman
of the committee, Alderman E. F.
Johnson, asking bids for brick. ,
Mr. Adams, of the Coal, ' Cement
&8upplyCo., stated that there were
two other bids from a Tennessee and
Virginia Company. Judge E. K.
Bryan, counsel for Mr. Adams, said
that Mr. Moore had as much notice as
Mr. Adams or any one else; that the
notice Mr. Moore received was suffi
cient He did not think it just after
1S0. Adams' bid was in to call for new
ones gain for .thn aamaworh v
Mr. J. T. Riley, of the firm of J. T:
Riley & Co., explained that he had
received a letter from Mr. Johnson of
like tenor as that received by Mr.
Moore and he thought neither of them
had the legal notice.
Mayor Waddell stated that Alder
man Johnson had not turned oyer to
the Board of Aldermen the bids of
Messrs. Moore and Riley.
Mr. Adams stated that he did not
know of the- work until about . two
hours before, as Mr. Johnson had
informed him that if his bid was not
in by a certain hour the contract
would be awarded to the Tennessee
firm.
The matter was discussed pro and
con in a desultory manner for some
time ; and the Board . of Audit and
Finance at length decided to postpone
action , on the matter, until a special
meeting, which will be held Friday
afternoon at S o'clock.
Alderman Maunder was also present
at the meeting to urge concurrence in
the - Aldermen's appropriation of
$4,600 for the new iron bridge on
Fifth street over the railroad, but the
meeting was so entirely taken uyVith
other matters that Mr. Maunder had to
wait until a subsequent meeting. '
