Mayor Considers Engaging Compe- - tent Man to Do Work at Municipal Expense. Unless contractors submit lower bids for laying water mains. Mayor Simon will arrange, by authority of the Water Board, to engage someone on behalf of the city to Install them as a municipal proposition. This was the decision reached yesterday morning at the Board meeting, called to consider proposals for the installation of an eight-Inch main on Everett street, from Nineteenth to Twenty-fifth. There were two bids, each exceeding the esti mate of the engineer, and readvertisement was ordered. This will give the bidders one more opportunity to submit lower of fers. 1 do not wish to have the city engage In the business of laying mains," said Mayor Simon, after the meeting, "but we will do so unless the contractors make better bids. I am going to investigate the matter from a legal standpoint, as there is some question as to how the city should proceed under the charter, In case we decide to lay some mains. If we lay any. It will simply be as a matter of protection to the city from exorbitant rates by contractors." There has been a great deal of -trouble over the laying of water mains; In fact, no mains have been laid for a long time, as the contractors have been figuring very high. This is largely because they fear their money will be held up by some property owner, who may object to the laws under which the work Is to be done. This applies only to mains over 10 inches in diameter, however, as these only are laid and charged to the "benefited prop ertv." The question is. what property is benefited by a water main? Some al lege the whole city is benefited, and the contractors ha.e all along feared that someone would hold up ine, payment this class of work, and have consequent- .. ...kahiv ahnnt 15 tier cent to cover the interest and the delay, should their money be held up. While there is a crying demand for i -n fh. .itv verv few are be- in laid, owing to the peculiar situation that prevails. Mayor mmui. members of the Water Board. Messrs. i..-th Mnrkiiv and I.amson, V V 11 UUJV , miui - . . are endeavoring to work out some plan whereby this class or wore can u "" forward and the residence sections in particular be relieved of water famine.
