frllE OMAIIA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1904. HEAVY COST OF REPAYING Ten Thousand Dollars More Under Lobeck Withnell Specifications. ESTIMATE MADE BY CITY ENGINEER Jays Work on Sortit Msteenth Street Will Cast Thirty Per Cent More : Than Had Ills Adrlca Gone Through. r t!Jty Engineer KnwwalM ai the North Blrteenth street rrpavlng will cost IH.ono I mors under the modified specifications made by the .majority of the Hoard of ' Public Works and approved by the acting , mayor and council than It would had the j work been constructed according to the jporlfications furnished by the engineer. I "My plan and their specifications have j been adopted." says the engineer. ' This means an additional expense of about Ut. ! 000, or about Si per cent of the totnl cost, as my estimate ran about Sj.((n for the entire Job. "Owing to the fact that the style of the paving has been changed, doing away with the depreswd gutters at the sides, consid erable filling will have to be done to get the crown line fixed by the plans. I had ' provided for crushed rock for the filling, j while the majority specifications make this 1 solid concrete. This Is what will Increase the cost so much. The concrete Is unneces ! ary. Both rhanaen Are Wrong;. ! "On the other hand, the majority mem I berg have done away with a proposed two ! and one-Jiulf Inch layer of asphaltic con I crete under the top coat and substituted a. one and one-half Inch binder, which Is fejultable for light traffic only. Both changes i are decidedly wrong from an engineering ' Standpoint. 1 "I understand Comptroller Lobeck gave as an excuse to City Attorney Wright that be had consulted John Grant's paving fore i men about the conditions and was advised ' It was all right to go ahead as he did. I I think the property owner, however, will j bave serious objections to paying $10,000 ' more for the repavlng than la Justifiable." I The Bo?rd of I'uollo Works has author ized advertisements calling for ..proposals to da the' work. lloairlaud Gets Fermlt. ' George A.
