Explanation of delay In paving wa the
principal matter before the adjourned
meeting of the city council Thursday morn
ing. The contractors were the first on the
scene and the majority of those holding
contracts had been waiting half an hour
when a quorum of the council was declared
present, 10:16 o'clock.
The city engineer had prepared a tabu
lated statement showing the time when all
existing contracts had been let, the time
work was to hare started and when the
contract should have been fulfilled. It
showed forty-seven contract, let .inc
October, 1906, of which eighteen alone have
been completed and eleven ar now In
course of construction.
The first contract called wa that of th
Bftrber Asphalt company on Howard street,
between Twenth-seventh and Twenty-eighth
streets, Mr. Baker for the company ex
plained that the paving was delayed be
cause th curbing was not finished In time,
but conerete was now laid and paving
wmild be completed In a short time. He
said other work was tn the same con
dition, except on Farnam street, where
publ'e service corporations had to lay con
duits before paving went down and on
Fortieth street, where the street railway
company must complete tracks before work
Is started. He said he believed all con
tracts would be completed by August 15.
Mr. Bnker was cross-questioned by As
sistant City Attorney Dunn. He said h
had been notified to start work on comple
tion of the contract, but waited for the
curbing.
Let Contrnrt Together.
This brought out a statement from
City Engineer Rosewater to the effect that
he desired a system whereby curbing and
paving contracts should be let together
so one contractor could not blame th
other for delay.
The attorney tried to ellcft a tatement
regarding who caused a delay between
the time of grading the street and th be
ginning of laying paving. ''
The. examination wa Interrupted by
Councilman McQovern, who desired to have
all witnesses sworn.
Hugh Murphy protested. H said he had
been called to confer with the council and
came willingly, but If the hearing should
be made to assume a judicial form he de
sired the right to be represented by a
counsel.
Contractors were not sworn.
Mr. Baker said he could not remember
whether he had consulted the city engineer
before waiting after the street was filled.
Witness said such delay was the usual
custom and necessary In order to secure
compact ground upon which to place pav
ing. Work on Farnam street was started
about two weeks ago and under Instruc
tion of the city engineer I helng done,
one-half of the street at a time, so that
traffic can be carried on. The city engineer
ome time ago (aid thl work could not be
done until the underground work could b
completed; Baker was notified verbally by
the city engineer last fall that underground
work must be completed before paving
could be done; just what underground work
he did not know. Witness' understanding
was that contracts must be completed as
rapidly as possible, but he was delayed in
securing material and could not get suf
ficient men.
Frost on Jackson Street.
Frost delayed work after December IS.
on Jackson street last fall, but work waa
resumed In April. Gutters were put In and
concrete laid in Jun6. Thirty-third street,
from Pacific to Woolworth avenue, was de
layed by the council, the contract being
let for a 30-foot roadway and later changed
to a 26-foot roadway. Curbs and gutters
were laid last fall. On Fortieth atreet. from
Dodge to Davenport, I not started; de
layed because the street railway company
ha not built It tracks; have talked with
city engineer and wa instructed to wait
I until tracks are laid. Ralls are In tne
street. The street railway company has
said It would start work In July. Curbing
Over Petition.
Jerome R Prrott was called upon to
explain, signatures attached to a petition
for paving Twenty-fifth avenue, between
Indiana and Parker streets. Ho remem
bered recognising a number of signatures
to the petition and the time of signing. It
Is alleged that there Is a misunderstanding I
In regard to the signatures and some of I
them deny signing.
Recommendations for allowance of bids
to lowest bidder wa then brought up.
Councilman Bridges declared he would
vote for no contracts to men who now hnvo
more than they can do at this time. Coun
cilman Brucker agreed with him.
On motion of Councilman Zlmman all
; matters relating to paving were postponed
until Tuesday night.

tract for sewer ln districts No. 333. 334,

the entertainment given the boosters while
on their trip and It Is desired. to Institute
a lasting reform In this respect. The mem

perienced men cannot be found.
The National Construction company had
no representative present and lta hearing;
waa passed.
Hugh Murphy was the next man to talk.
H said the cause of hi delay was Inability
to get stone tn Nebraska for concrete. He
had a leas on a stone quarry which ex
pired last year. He had an agreement for
a hew quarry and contract for crushers' to
be Installed ln March were not fulfilled,
crushers only being In operation for a few
day. He had been urffed time after time
by the city engineer to start work and told
him he would do so as soon as he could.
Contracts held by hlin were taken up. He
has started no asphalt work, but has
started some brick work, having material
on the ground. ' Work on Lake street west
of Twenty-fourth street is delayed by the
treet railway company. The engineer'
office said It ha done all possible to get
th treet cleared, but the street railway
company seems to have abandoned work
at present..

Th city engineer explained that change
Of curb lines on the street made It neces
sary to change all poles, which caused
delay.
Mr. Murphy said it had been customery
for public service companies to wait until
contractors had grading done before start
ing to lay pipes.
Witness hoped to get stsrted on asphalt
work ln ten days or two Weeks. With
usual weather all work will be cleared up
easily in the fall. In the last six week
but fifteen day' work ha been done. Wit
nea pa $2.25 for common labor and
there I work for four where two can
be secured.
Mr. runkhatiser asked what effect ths
present condition would have on new work.
Witness said contracta in all cities are
generally a year behind and Omaha is no
exception. Contractors desired to start ss
oon a frost I out of th ground, but
the weather would not permit.

the city did not pay on regular fund war

such warrant amounted to W.OQ and the
year before to about 111, COO. This year all
regular fund warrants were paid In cash,
although th fund on which they were
drawn might have been exhausted by the

Possible.
Estimates have been made tor new double
track on the I nlon Pacific in Wyoming,
which will extend from Hanna to Rawlins, a
distance of forty miles; Wamsutter to
Robinson, twenty mile and Rock Springs
to Green River, sixteen mile. This work
will cost, according to the estimates of
Resident Engineer Maitland. $2.K.C. In
addition to this double track work In
Wyoming, the line Is to be changed by
the elimination of a number of sharp curves
and made as straight as possible, cut
offs being built which will reduce the
length of the line considerably.
The great cost of tliis work will be due
to the heavy nature of the grading be
tween Henna and Rawlin and Rock
Springs and Green River. Contracts wer
let lat spring' for double-tracking the line
between Wamsutter and Rawlins, a dis
tance of forty-one miles, and whlls this
work cost but 1750,000 the work betwesn
Hanna and Rawlins will cost over $1,009.

new work will be let ln a short time and
the construction begun.
