CITY MAY ' LAY !ilf
BIDS FOR IXSTALLIXG WATER
PIPES EXCEED ESTIMATES.
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.
