FANCY FIGURES ON FIXTURES Charge That Omaha Paid Dearly for City Hall Vault Equipment. ONE FIRM THAT COULD NOT GET A BID Mr. He Was Snubbed t this of Holtman Says Omaha Officials and ' City Got the Worst the Bargain, by ‘Whin the grand jury adjourned for a vaca tion it was understood that the alleged irreg- ularities in the award of the contract for vault fixtures in the new city hall woula be taken up for investigation. Prospects now are that notuing wiil be done in the case, as tho man making the charges is too busy to come to Omaha to hold a seance with th erand jury. HL. J. Hoftman of Chicago, secrotary of the Hoffman-[Keefo Kile company, made the charge to the city council that the Fenton Metallic Manufacturing company and the Offico Specinlty Manufacturing compony were in collusion, and that Omaha paid very dearly for her $7,000 contract on city hall vault fi xtures. “How do 1 know there was a pool?" said candid Mr. Hoffman, wben askea to_give the Chicago representitive of Tne Bee his authority on this point. “Why, 1 was in a pool with 'em myself under a §1,500 forfeit at Grand Rapids,” 0 far as my motives 1n writing to the Omaba city council are concerned,” contin- ued he, “I'do not pretend that they werc philantbropic. Iama busincss man and I acted from purely business motives. 1 un- derstood that the contract had not been fin- Ally let to the Fenton company, as I had at first supposed, and that if we could show how the city had been swindled we might get some show. "I find that I was mistaken, however, and now have no special interest in the mat- tor. I bave been nsked to submit tho evi- dence of my charges to the grund jury, but 1 am too busy to take a trip to Omaha, und as therc is nothing to compensate me for the timo and expense, 1 hardly soe how I could bo exvected to do 0. If the contract were still open it would become a purely business transaction, and of course we shouid present our case as fully as possi- ble. Asitis, 1 am willing to assist an inves- tigation all I can, and will give the grand jury aud tho goneral public what we have through the columns of Tk E Could Not Get Information, “In the first place there is, 1t seems to me, strong ovidence to any practical man that things were not right i the way in which we wore treatcd. I learned through one of our fournals that bids wero to be calied for at Omaha, and wrote at once to the mayor ask- ing for information on the subject, and in- closing circulars to show the reliability of our firm. After wailing & reasonable Jengtn of time and receiving no reply I wrote to the city clerk with the same result. Isent a half dozen lotters to various city ofticials but failed to get a reply from any of them. Pinally we learncd, entirely by accident, when the award was to be made. T in- formation came through an Omaha furniture agealer. ““We atonce sent our agent to Omaba. Ho arrived the day before the letting of the con- tract and learned that no bids would be con- sidered unless accompanied by a certified check for #00. He wired us and we mailed such a check at once. The Merchants Ex change bank of Milwaukee, on which it was drawn, at our request, telegraphed tho chairman of the commiitee making the award that such a check had been drawn. This, it seems to me, should have been suf- ficient, if the matter had been entirely fair and regular, to have entitled us to a hearing. But we were shutout onthe technicality that our ckock was not 1n hand av the time specifiod, Pald More Than Schedule Price, “Now as to the price paid by Omaha, the fact that she paid 10 per cent more than the schedule price and twice as much as has beeu charged elsewhere by the Llenton company for tho same work, both before and since the letting of the Omaha contract, is easily proven and is @ very simple problem in arithmetic which any Omaha citizen can figure out for himself. “‘An examination of the bids made by the samo compauy for vaults in the court houses of Whitely county, Indiana, Clark county, ‘Wisconsin, Livingston county, Michigan, and Kane county, Illinois, will show that they furuished the same goods at from 0 to 60 per cent less than Omahaagreed to pay, and this, too, in spite of tue fact that the Omaha contract is much larger than any of those named. A still greater difference will be found between the Omaha figures and those named in vault contracts for county build- ings at Appleton, Wis., and Hampton, Ia., made siuce tho lotting ot the con- truct at Omaha. So that the KFenton company can hardly claim, as it did at Grand Rapids, where one of its contracts was rescinded on a similar showing, that the goods provided for are of a later and vetter pattern and thevefore worth more.” ety You've No Idca.

The ordinance, in order to be considerea intelligently, should be in the first place referred to the engineor. fog dopartment. He would also bo very careful that the bill should be drawn by the city and o the interests of the city and not by the company. Again, he Is not decided as to the advisa- bility of the city giving to any corporation the privilege proposed. Every one knows that the tendency all over the country is toward municipal ownership of gas, electric lighting, water works and all similar public improvements. With this in view the good policy of alienating the privilege of con- structing condults is open to question.

It is true we are overcrowded for room and things are not as comforta- ble for us as they might be. We are compelled to carry the bulk of our im- mense stock on the second and third floors; it mukes our rent cheaper, and therefore enables us to sell you at such small mhrgin, Our next reason is, we give no credit, and consequently don’t lose a centon bad debts, Last,but not the lenst reason is, we pay for every dollar’s worth of goods as soon as they reach our house. This spring we have taken advantage of several Al houses that were a trifle short for cash on account of slow collec- tions, and they jumped at our cash of- fors that we made for some of their choicest spring productions.

That particular kind of a column was first intro- duced by the Phenix mills of Philade!pbia. but it can be made now by any mill having the capacity to make such a column without paving apy royalty to the Phoenix milis, [ agreo with the passers of the resolution introduced in the Manufacturers association in one particutar. That is with reference to letting bids for castivou instead of steel columns, 1 believe that castiron columns are just as good wvhere they are made of suficient weight. The steel colurins are used nearly altogether in Chicago because they get more strength for the weight. In a light. high building the steel column presents that advautage, but in this building tbo question of tweight will not cut so much of a hgure, If castiron columns were used the Omaha foundries could compete, but it will be impossible for the Omaha foundries to compete in the bidding for the furnishing of steel columns.” Referring to the praliminary work on the foundation Mr. Beindorft said that Mr. King would begin work witain a weck if the weather continued favorable.

The ex- tensions will necessitate the employment of about 2,000 additional men exclusive of the large number who will be emvloyed 1n the construction of the new buildings and tho putting in of a vast amount of additional ma- chinery. The new buildings will all be built of the best materiul and supplied with the most improved 6quipments, To decide upon the details of so extensive an undertaking has required considerable time and an immense amount of work. The approval of thoe plans for the contemplated improvements of the Georgo H, Hammond company has been delayed from the fact that the highest ofticials of the company are in l?urnpo and communication was necessarily slow. ; A favorable decision bas at last. beoh reached, however, and Tiug Bee is able to givoa complete and dotailed review of the improvements decided upon by all the pack- ers excopt the Omaha Packing company, whose plans are still in embryn, It is tho intention of the Hammond com- pany to entirely supercede the wooden build- ng which constituted the original plant by anew double brick structure, The exact round arca of the new ouilding has not een exactly determined, but 1t will be a much larger and more substantial structure than the present one. Tt will be four stories high, and the cattle and hog killing depart- ments will be included under one -rool, but constructed separately. The beef depart- ment will be equipped” with all_modern ap- pliances. The killing will be ‘denc on the fourth floor. The estimated cost of the building and machinery is §200,000 and when completed the capacity of tho plant will be 1,000 eattle, 3,000 hogs and 1,000 sheep a day. An additional force of 400 men will be re- quired. The piiedrivers will begin work on tke foundations in a fow days and the beef house will be finished and in operation by August 1. The improvements at the Cudahy Packing company’s plant will cost_about §250,000 and comprise six large new buildings: which will cover an area of threo and’ one-half acres. The largest building will be the beef house, 0x225 foot ana five stories high. This will be erected immed- 1ately west of the preseut boef house, and will extend to ‘Thicty-third street. Just across Thirty-third street and norlh of the popsin works an 1mmense warehouso will be built, s will wo stories high with o ground arca of 165x27s feet. 1t will be used as a hide cellar and cooperage and for the storage of canned goods. A new butterine factory 60x100 feet and three stories high will be ercoted jmmed- iately west of the prosent butterine factory. The new buildin 150,000 pounds of the product per week. The old butterine factory will be udded to the oleomargerine dapartment. X150 feet will be built west of Dhirty-thira street and north.of the present tiu shop. Tho additional build ing will make tho daily product 75,000 which is about double the preseut izer department will be increased by a new building 50x100 feet. The shop will be added to tho canning depurt ment, which will give the latter a capacity of 150,000 10 200,000 pounds & day. A new ve- pair shop 75x150 feet will be located immedi- ately cast of tho old hog house. To allow this'the loading chutes of the stock vards company will be removed and the tracks which traverse tho site of the coutemplated building will be moved north of thé' old re- pair shops. wer required by theso improvements will be supplied by ewzht now boilers of 100 borse power each, ana an addi- tional 15) ton ice muehine will be put in, Th apaciiy of the plant when the nprovements are compietod will ' day in summer and 5 o 1. )0 sheep and 200 number of men cmployed will bo inereased from about 1,800 to Worlk has tady been begun on th ments, which will make the Cud one of the largest and most complete in the United States Ihe udditions to the plaat of Swift.& Co. will increase ' their capacity -avout 2 cout.
