RELATIONS OF OFFICERS TO CONTRACTORS
Preeenta Stranae Conversation ae
Tln Transpired ' Between I.o

Tha aflidavtt of Charles E. Fanning- aa a
taxpayer and paving expert was Introduced
In evidence In Judge Troup s court yes
terday, the occasion being the further
hearing of the petition of V. O. t'r for
the annullment of the contract between the
city and the Nebraska Ultullthlc company
for the resurfacing of Thirty-aecoad ave
nue
The affidavit told of a conversation be
tween Councilman Evans. Building In
spector M'lthnell and the deponent in which
Evans is said to have told Wlthnell that he
and Lobeclc did not know enough to pre
pare specifications for the city and asked
him who fixed them up. To this Wlthnell
Is said to have answered, "Hugh Murphy."
Another conversation was reported aa tak
lng plate In South Omaha between Wlth
nell, fecott King and Fanning regarding the
reinsertion of the spucltlcatlone for brick
paving. Wlthnell is ri poj uxi as having told
the others the brick specifications would be
put back as brick was good, and further to
have stated to Fanning they were not after
him (Fanning), but the Barber asphalt
people.
Fanning believed Wlthnell and Lobeck
bad a strong prejudice against that pav-

lng company. He swore, further, he be
lieved the bid of Hugh Murphy to have
been a straw bid. inasmuch as Murphy
had no paving plant in the city and the
specifications called for the beginning of
work ten daye after the acceptance of the
bid. This, it was pointed out, would have
been an engineering Impossibility for a
man who had to bring a plant here. He
believed, according to his affidavit, the bid
was made in collusion with John Grant
That Trip to St. Louis.
Aflldavlts from W. H. McLaughlin, man
ager of the Barber Asphalt Paving com
pany, and from Charles M. Carpenter, local
representative, were Introduced. The first
of these swore Withnell and Lobeck had
gone on a ten days' Junketing trip la.st
spring at the expense of the Nebraska
Ultullthlc company, and since that time
had been strongly prejudiced against the
Barber company.
Affiant further considered the 1904 speci
fications to have been made with the idea
of cutting off competition by nonfavored
bidders In order to create a monopoly at a
high price. The specifications were left
uncertain, so the majority of the Board of
Public Works could cause an unfavored
bidder a great loss and sucn companies
could not enter bids if they did not know
beforehand what the board Intended to do.
The portion relating to sub-drainage could,
it was claimed, be used against a non
fiiVoraU contractor so as to Increase the
expense enormously, no allowance being
made for extras. Further, the specifica
tions left the paving formula indefinite and
to be fixed by the majority of the board
after the contract was let. This, it was
held, was most unjust, as a formula might
be named which could not possibly result
in a good surface and would force the con
tractor, under the guarantee, to resurface
the street.
City Attorney Wright was given an op
portunity to explain his objections to the
specifications. Mr. Wright considered they
were illegal because they left certain con
ditions to be made definite after the
bidding. They limited competition, because
bidders had to have some definite common
thing on which to base their bids, which
was not the case In the specifications In
question. He said ha considered tha pre
ceding lights and tha present out contents
between the paving companies.

FRED PATTERSON COMES HOME
Omaba Boy Who Lost Uli In Iroquois
Fire Retnrna After Sine
Month's Absence.
Fred Patterson, the 17-year-old youth
who lost his legs in the Iroquois theater
fire last December, reached Omaha Friday
morning from Chicago. Fred was met at
the Burlington station by his father, W. C.
Patterson, manager of the shoe department
of Bennett's store, and taken at once to
his home, 1130 South Thirty-second street.
The plucky young man who, as is bo well
known In Omaha, sustained the loss of
both legs above the knee, is equipped
with artificial limbs and uses two canes
in walking. He gets along remarkably well
under the circumstances, the progress he
has made being the source of much grati
fication to his parents and friends. On
a level surface the young man gets along
smoothly, but, of course, is hindered yet
in mounting stairs, but It is believed he
will be able to overcome even this diffi
culty In a very short time.
In appearance and general health Fred
Is better off than when he left Omaha for
Chicago nine months ago, at which time
he expected to be gone but a few days.
Since the terrible calamity at the Ill-fated
theater when hundreds of Uvea were oblit
erated and his own so nearly taken, the
young man has been at St, Luke's hospital,
Chicago. When taken there his limbs were
so badly burned It was thought he could
not survive, but he displayed such heroic
fortitude and remarkable vitality aa to
encourage the physicians in the hope of
saving his life by the amputation of his
legs. This waa done, several operations
being necessary to bring him to his pres
ent state. The amputation was made above
the knees.
