Tho contracts include first the purchase of the old plant, contract for cast iron for main extensions, contract for installing them, con-| tract for filtration » plant building | construction, for heating plant con-| struction, for installation of _ma- nery in the filtration plant, con- yet for pumps and for the Diesel | “ngine. The total cost of the plant .is not yet . known, because some changes have been made in the) and others may be made,| which affect two contracts. It will he between $600,000 and $650,000, it! is expected.

The price of the! Melntosh and Seymour Diesel en-| gine as purchased, is $24,985.

The oil engine will furnish ample power. There were three engines given major consideration, the Fairbanks- Morse semi-Diesel at about $17,000; the Worthington Diesel at about 200 and the McIntosh and Sey- mour at $24,985. It was said by Mayor Lenhart that the commission felt that they should buy. a good, heavy piece of machinery and en- ine, and they were guided largely ‘wy the recommendation of Wolff, consulting engineer. A previous price on the PacIntORY and Seymour engine was about $2,- 500 higher. Mr. Sykes, factory rep- aesentative, said that they under- stood it was necessary to bid fRrough a jobber and they bid through a St. Paul jobber, and that the price fixed was greater than it should have been on his engine, the jobber bidding on three or four types. He said he got the impres- sion that manufacturers had to bid through jobbers to get any contracts on the water plant from general talk and was surprised when it was found that the Fairbanks-Morse company had bid direct and its bid had not been questioned. Put Main On Avenue C. The commission also decided an- other important question—to bring the big 16-inch main from the, wa- ter plant to the. city in on Avenue C instead of on Broadway, as pro- posed in the original plans. Pro- perty owners on Broadway had com- plained of having the ehtire length of the pavement torn up to bring the main in. It was estimated that it would be $13,000 cheaper to bring the main in on Avenue C al- though Mr. Wolff declared Broad- way was the best street to bring it in on. The commission, working over plans with the engineers with a view of saving all money possible, .also decided to cut out about 24 blocks of the original plans for main ex- tensions, and believe instead they can be installed as the demand in- creases. , Thorne Dickinson has’ ’ assumed “work as assistant to City Engineer Atkinson and will be in charge of the construction of the plant most of the time. Mr. Dickinson, who is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has been engaged on previous occasions by YMr. Atkinson. and did work on the original plans for the water plant. He came here from a construction job in Alabama. .

Jenson, former county treasurer, the county claim- ing the full amount of his bond, or $50,000, from the state fund. It is charged, according to Wil- liam Langer of this city who, with H. A. Hanson, states attorney, is in charge of the case, that the removal proceedings against former county commissioners H. E. Kirkelie and J. O. Grubb, instituted before Lynn J.

At the time the bank closed Burke county had in the bank about $77,- 000.
