'. Saltl Contractors Wcro Warned
Tills IiiBt Btntomont of Mr.
McCluro wnB challenged by City I4n
glncor A. II. Oldloy. "Wo lot blnnk
ot contracts this last summer," ho
said. And furthormoro, you aro un
der tho delusion thnt Sinclair und
Tulloy didn't know wo would let no
mora Jobs by ploco meal. I told him
bo boforo his bids woro submitted. I
I told him bo In front of witnesses."
It wus further explained that on
various city projects whom tho work
Juis been divided , giving first tho
grading to ono firm, tho curbing to
another, and tho making of sldowalk
to another, thnt ,tbo result was a
"mess' wllh ovoryono In tho other
fellow's way and Hie result has been
confusion. ,
; Xo Klght to Itcronsldei'
"I think thp council has no right
now to reconBldor tho bids," camo
tho oxprcsslon from City Attorney
John D. Goss. "And nnothor thing,
no man would want tho llttlo Inci
dental grading thn,t goes on with this
sldowalk contract, nnywuy. Ho
couldn't mako anything at It."
Again Mr. McCluro snld that Sin
clair nnd Tulloy had not understood
tho matter that wny, nud In good
faith had submitted their bid for on
ly ono department of tho work, tho
tho covers back on tho flumo down
Mill Slough, tilso tho fixing up ot
tho mun-holcB nnd tho BUbcsquout
imymont for tho oxponscs Incurred by
labor.
"Tho Port ought to fnston back tho
tops of the main riiimo," said City
14nglncor Gldloy, by wny or introduc
ing tho subject. Thcrourior It wns
nblo to Btnml on Its own legs.
Open llov Dangerous
Ho continued, "Tho box Is open In
ninny places. Children throw sticks
and stones In thoro. All thnt helps
to clog up tho system. Somo tiny
ono or them will rail in, thnt will
mako It oven worso. I think tho
Port ought to nttond to this at once"
Wo ought to turn this mnttor ov
er to our engineer and with n detailed
report to tho Port Commsslon ns to
what ought to ho dono," put In Mr.
Goss.
IIo cxplnlncd Hint tho mnttor Is
really a serious one, In spite of tho
Joking thoro. To clog tho riumo at
this tlmo, would In all probability
menu tho Incurring or thousands or
dollars In diuiinges nud to havo tho
box reoponcd and cleaned out again.
, Ought To I-'lv Soon
"And In tho fnco of such n predica
ment, i don't fool that tho city ought
to stop too long figuring who Is gd
Ing to pay for tho work,"' ho Bald.
On motion or Mr. Copplo It wob di
rected that a letter bo sent at onco
to tho Port Commissioners, tolling
thnt tho work Is needed, if thoy rail
to nttond to this, to lot tho city en
gineer go ahead with tho work and
chargo it up to tho Port.
