Barrett, for the prosecution, made the closing argument, commencing by reading the resolution of August 23d, authorizing the investig And stating that the inquiries which the committee were required to answer were: Was the contrac! ders? Has the work been done according to the contract? Has any money been paid un: ‘this contract without warrant of law 1 In regard to the first question, he stated that Mr. Bliss jast fall made an estimate of the amount of embankment, excavation and gravel- ing required on the streets in question, whic3 footea up 78,039 cubic yards 63,132 of excavation, £7,512 square graveling. Bids were advertised among others received were the following-— G. W. G. Eslin, for M street, grading 14 cents, graveling 5% cents; Peter McNamara, for K street, if cents, 64 cents; H. ©. Belt, for G street, 13 cents, 8 cents; John Stafford, for First street, 14 cents, 6X cents; Jo! or all four of the streets, 11 cents, 10 cenis. The evidence shows that the bids were made with this condition “Phe contractor is to r: 10 the same privileges and restrictions ave been required had all the said parts of the said four street formed thejw! or contiguous parts of oue and the same siree’ Mr. Bliss’ report shows that the embankment exceeds the excavation by 14,007 yards, and the cost of the work under Donovan cortract, ing Mr. Bliss’ estimate, would be $17,334.19. Taking the data furnisbed by the Mayor aad Mr. Meads, bad the work been let to the lowest bidder on each street, the total amount would be $16.795.06—8543.43 less than the Donovan contract. He referred to Mr. McNamara’s tes timony as tothe Mayor refasing to award him the contract for K street, be being the lowest bidder, because the party who was to do ist and G streets would not take them uniess they had Ketreet. He held it Donk accompanied by a guarantee to enter into contract, and it was duty to hold him to Bis bid. It, howevei bis bids deen tarown out the work could have been done ni asaving of $363.51. Astoasaving being ef- fected by using the surplus earth from oae street in making embankments in another street, Mr. B. said it was admitted by all who gave evidence on this poimt that a contractor could not, under the terms of the contract in question, be required to haul surplus carth trom M street to either ist or G streets, and none from M street could be required in K street, as that street Radasurplas. It there. fore follows that all the saving that could be made in the matt ia of the surplus in the embank- ment of G or Ist street. ius earth amounts to but 2.159 cubie whieh, at i1 per cubic yard, would amount to only 49, a sum less than the difference bet wee: not awarded to the lowest bidders. He contended that as Mr. McNamara was the lowest bidder tor K street, he had as much right to the whole work ss Mr. D, and he reterred to Mr. McN.’s baving offered to do the work for 2500 less than all the lowest bids, wicb. if accepted, would have saved the corporation $1,043.43. In swer to another question, he said he would have offered to do it at least one cent per yard finally offered to do for. The number of yards of embankment and graveling being 1 I, @ saving of one centon each yard would amount to $1,655.81. This added Hy the $1,043.43, makes 22,699.24, which the Mayor could have saved the Gor- Eerstion, Certainly this sum was worth saving. In ne the first question. Mr. B. | with an outrage upon Josephe: said that the Fr gave Donovan a contract | for doing the work in question at $543.43 above the lowest bids for the same work. He let the contract at $363.31 above the lowest bids, ex. | cha Donovan's; at $1,043.43 above what Peter McNamara offered to take it at, when found 1t was to let by election; and at $2098.24 above what he could pave got the same work done for by Peter McNamara, by offering to p#y bim in the same way he has pai! for the Work under the Donovan contract. They had the evidence before them, and irom that they | had to answer that the contract had not been given to the lowest bidder. r. Barrett continued, arguing at some length the other questions, as to whether the work bas been do! ccording to contract, and whether money bad been paid without autho: ity of law, claiming that neither has the c: tract been faithfully executed. nor has the law been complied with as to the payments of the | The committee about 10 4 o'clock adjourned. and it is ful.y ex: ted that their report will be melted to the Councils om next Monday Ps League Hail to prepare to take part in the gmancipation ceremonies in Baltimore on 8 to appear in proces: ge H.
