L M Whltchousu Ih the lowest
bidder for the coat Kiel for comput
ing the Nuuiimi dam. When the bids
were opened nt noon today by Su
perintendent of Public Works .Mars
ton Campbell It was found that of
the four bidders the man who held
the former contract was by far tho
lowest In his tender, bolng over SC
000 under his nearest competitor.
hltehousc'H bid Is 113, 44T for tho
completion of the work In Its entire
ty, against i:!!M7r bid by V. 11.
Hoogs & Co Wilson ,t Chapln of
fered to do the work for fm.OCO.
Former Super lutendetit of Public
Works C S. Ilollown. who had been
regarded us Whltchouso'H most for
midable rival for tho contract, on ac
count of his experience with the dam
and his knowlodgo of the dllflcultles
to be met and overcome, was the far
Vliest from the goal, his tender being
$142,800 ove. JlU.oyi) higher than
the amount bid by Wbttchousc.
It was n matter of considerable
surprise that there were but four bid
ders for the contract, us oer a dozen
copies of the plans and specifications
had been tal en out by local men,
while other copies weie cent to the
Coast. There were no tenders from
outside. It Is evident that tome of
the contractors combined In making
their tenders.
It Is no great matter for surprise
that Whltehouse was ablo to under
bid his competitors, for, ns has been
pointed out before, he had the advan
tage of t heai of already having his
plaji on t ic giouud and of having
had tho benefit of experience all tiro
work done thus fur, virtually, having
been dune by hlur under the old con
tract. But It was not expected thnl
IiIb bid would bo so far within the
amount appropriated by tho Legisla
ture for the completion of tho work.
There Is J132.000 In tho Treasury to
pay for the completion of tho dam.
The contract has not yet been offi
cially awarded to Whltehouse, as the
Superintendent of Public Works In
tends to thoroughly canvas the bids,
so aB to leave no loophole for future
trouble; but thero Is no .doubt but
that the contract will go to the man
who held tho old one.

one for completing tho dam with
stone paving of tlio inside face, the
other with concreto paving. Wlrltc
houso's nltcrnate bid was also lower
man that of anwmo else.
It Is not certain i int the dam will

Treasurer Campbell, Mr. Taylor and'
ether members of tho Department.
Soer.tl of the contractors were ovl"
deiitly there out of curiosity.
An effort was made by Hoogs to
cat the Superintendent to say heforo
the bids were opened what changes
he would make In tho plans In casa.
none of the bids was within tho ap
propriation, hut tills ho refused to
do. "I reserve the right," he said,
to IncreuM' ot diminish the work ns
may bo nccessarj. But 1 will not ad
mit that the bids aro oei- tlio
amount available."
When 12 o'clock arrived and tho
first bid was opened. It was fuund to
bo tint of L M. Whltehouso. When
it had beon read, and tho other con
tractors realized that they were prac
tically out of tho game, thero was
considerably less Interest displayed,
though all wcro curious to Know
where their competitors stood.
Superintendent Campbell states
t.mt ho will m.rkp an oOlclal an
