NEXT T0 THE LOWEST BIDDER A Rank Deal in the Repair of Third Street. Facts and Figures Show That the City Is Being Plundered. New Work Throughout Can Be Done for Less Than Cost of Repairing. THE BIDS WERE JUGGLED How the Scheme Was Planned by the Contractors and the Street Committee. The universal desire of the people of San Francisco for smooth and sub-| stantial pavements to replace the old | blocks and worn-out macadam causes | general approval of new street work. Tax-payers are inclined to accept any- thing new as }-tter than the old, and have not been very particular in mak- ing inquiries to ascertain facts concern- ing cost of new work or compliance with specifications. The disclosures recently made in The Call show that the Supervisors and the Street Departi.ent are letting out im- portant jobs without regard to the pro- visions of the law on the subject. The | Superintendent of Streets takes it upon | himself, at the suggestion perhaps of some one of the board, to enter into a private arrangement for important work in front of city property. The favored contractor goes to the property owners against whom one-half of the cost of the improvement should be as- sed and says: “Sign for this im- provement and we will make the price low to you. What we lose on your half | we will make up in a sment against | the cit half.” Objection being out of the way the Street Superintendent and | favored contractor proceed to make a When the law private arrangement. js invoked against payment for work S0 C d and engineered the Super- visors step in and authorize the im- provement by regular resolution of in- lention, but this regular authority is | not given until the work has been per- formed. The proposed public competi- | tion is therefore a sham. The favored | contractor who has already done the | work puts in a public bid at the private | figures 1 the other contractors who 1 stay off. This viola- | is known to the Mayor | do not seem to have the power to prevent the payment for work contracted or bargained for in this loose and unlawful manner. On other contracts let in an appar- ently regular manner the city frequent- ly gets the rough end of the deal. A | recent job on Third street, between Mission and Howard, is a case in point. | The accepted bituminous pavement of | this block needed repairs. It was pro- | have been post posed, therefore, that the bitumen | should be removed and the concrete | foundation repaired. The Board of Su- | ervisors proceeded in the regular fash- fon, as the law requires, to invite bids. There were five bidders, to wi City Street Improvement Compan Flinn & T v, Union Paving and Con- any, San Francisco Pav- and J. J. Dowling. s that of J. He also agreed to pay § The next lowest PDowling. for *he 0ld bitumen. bi was that of Flinn & Treacy, $2100 ~a $1 for the old material. The Board Z Supervisors on the recommendation of the Street Commttee rejected all tha bids. Dowling told the Supervis- ors that he was mistaken on the prop- osition and hence put in a bid lower than he intended. Whatever the in- side arrangement was, the fact stands that the Street Committee rescinded the resolution rejecting all the bids and | edopted a resolution rejecting Dow- ling’s bid and then recommended the award of contract to Flinn & Treacy for $2100. Dowling was perfectly will- | ing to have his bid rejected. | Now, as a matter of fact, Dowling’s bid of $950 and $756 for the old material was a pretty fair estimate of the work | required. The repairs to the concrete will not cost over $50, which would | Jeave him 7 cents a square foot for rg- lacing the bitumen. Counting one in- ersection and deducting the street rail- | road company's space there remains to be repaved 15,760 square feet. Flinn | & Treacy’s bid is at the rate of 15 cents | & square foot, counting on the old ma- terial to be worth $2 a ton or $300 for the bulk. The Call is prepared to show that‘ new work, including the whole of the | concrete bed, can be done at a profit for 15 cents a square foot. The Call has expert figures to show that the Super- wvisors proposed to allow for the| work $1200 more than it is| worth according to the ruling| flgures for laying down concrete and bituminous pavement. The Superin- | tendent of Streets and the expert of | the Street Committee must have known | that the bid of Flinn & Treacy was ex- cessive and that Dowling’s original bid | was about the richt figur 1 The Call is convinced that there is a | steal somewhere in this particular job. | The conclusion is borne out by actual | measurements of the street and a most careful examination of the existing con- crete bed. The concrete is in excellent form and needs but very little repair- ADVERTISEMENTS.

When the bids were opened it was found that Dowling was the only low bidder, hence the simple task of disposing of Dowling was all that remained to be done in order to give the work to the combine at an ex- orbitant figure. The Supervisors were consulted at this stage of the proceed- ings, so that new bids could not be called for to : pset the calculations. ACCUSED OF LYING. Serious Charge Made Against Law- yer Alexander Campbell Jr. by Curveson’s Bondsmen. A. W. Robinson and W. A. Dawes, bondsmen for James Curveson to the amount of $2500, flled thelr answer yes- terday to the suit brought against them in the United States District Court by the United States Attorney on behalf of the Government to recover upon the bonds. Curveson was indicted by the United States Grand Jury for passing counter- feit money in Humboldt County and has disappeared, leaving his bondsmen in that unpleasant ~condition known as ‘“the lurch.” The answer, drawn up by Attorney A. P. Sweeney, makes grave charges against Alexander Campbell Jr., attorney for Curveson. Mr. Campbell is accused In the answer of having told of that which is not and which never was, and gravely charges in effect that he induced the bondsmen by false representations to go on Curveson's bonds. The following s the language of the ac- cusing part of the answer: Said defend- ants aver that they did execute a bond similar to_the one set out in said com plaint, and that prior to, and at the time of the execution thereof they were in- formed by one A. Campbell, attorney for sald James Curveson, that said James Curveson was a resident of Humboldt, Cal., and a man of large means who would hold himself in perfect readiness to comply with the orders of this court. That whereas, in truth and in fact, said James Curveson is not a man of large or any means, and has no property of any THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, MARCH 29, 1898. WORK THAT WILL STAND CRITICISM Expert’s Report on the Ferry Depot Foundation. A Condition Not Due to the Acts of Commis- sioner Coinon. Engineer Holmes Credited With This Apparent Exception to the List of Frauds. PILING HAS NOT SETTLED. Result of a Thorough Examination Made at the Request of The Call. From -time to time during the past month The Call has received sugges- tions from more or less responsible per- eons concerning alleged frauds and de- investigating the condition of the build. ing. That the foundation appears to be sufficiently stable to pass a critical ex- amination is a matter for congratula- tion. If any credit is due it should be given to Chief Engineer Holmes, un. der whose personal supervision and di- rection the work was done. It may also be stated in passing that Commis- sioner Colnen opposed Mr. Holmes in every possible way except by actually vetoing his orders, and it is in no man- ner to the credit of Mr. Colnon that the finished and tested work has proved to be acceptable. The report follows: “To W. S. Leake, Manager San Francis- co Call—Dear Sir: I beg to submit here- with report on the investigation made by me of the foundation of the new Union Depot and Ferry House. All avallable plans and data were care- fully examined and studied. They show the designs for the foundation to be com- prehensive and in accordance with the best current practice. Whether they were faithfully carried out under water and places now closed to observation I am unable to say. Lines of levels were taken both longitu- dinally of the structure and transverse. They failed to show any signs of sinking. The masonry of the superstructure was subjected to the most critical examina- tion, and deductions from this source verify what was shown by the levels. The sea wall upon which the front ar- cade of the bullding rests is frém a frac- tion of an inch to an inch lower than the outer line of the plers. This fact, per se, 1s not conclusive evidence that a general | settlement has occurred. It has been suggested that the piling of the outer plers was not cut below mud line. Comparing results of soundings with plans, it i3 shown that the piling is protected with from two to six feet of | harbor mud. To wgrify any suspicion which might be entertained as to what falthfulness was observed in carrying out plans and specifications a diver must be employed to make a submarine examina- tion.

That but for the statement that sald James Curveson was a man of large means and would hold himself in readiness to comply with the orders of this court sald defendants would not have signed or executed sald bond in behalf of sald James Curveson. Then comes the most serious part of the accusation of dishonesty against At- torney Campbell. It is as follows: That said A. Campbell, attorney for sald James Curveson, well knew .said statements were false and untrue at the time he made the same, and made them for the sole and only purpose of enticing said defenndants to sign said bond. That said defendants belleved said statements, and_relying upon the same signed said bond, otherwise they would not have doneso. Deputy United States Attorney Schles- inger moved to strike out that portion of the answer quoted in the foregoing, on the ground that even were the allegations true it would not constitute any part of a defense. The motion will be acted upon next Monday by Judge de Haven. e BUSINESS MEN KEEP LENT. Services Are Held Daily in the Rooms of the Chamber of Commerce. A serles of Lenten exercises was inaug- urated under the direction of the Brother- hood of St. Andrew in the rooms of t§ Chamber of Commerce yesterday and will be continued until next Sunday morn- ing. They are being devoted entirely to the instruction of business men, and are held daily between the hours of 12 and 12:30 o'clock, being called “‘thirty-minute Lenten services for business men.” The noon hour was selected so as to give all an opportunity of attending the exercises without interference to business affairs. The hymn “Jesus Call Us,” which opens the service, and an address constitute the religious programme. *“A Man’s Respon- sibility in Business Life” was the text of the sermon yesterday, and was delivered by Bishop Leonard of the diocese Gr Utah, Nevada and Western Colorado. ‘During the time of Lent,” he claimed, “we should practice a spirit of self-deniai and should attempt to bring our souls nearer to God b attempting to learn more about his doctrines and by keeping the commandments.” The large attendance that characterized the services last year was not diminished yesterday, and, if anything. was aug- mented, as there were few seats to be had and less standing room to be secured. The title of the address to be delivered to-day by the Rev. E. J. Lion is “A Man's Responsibility in Domestic Life.” —_— e ——— An Opium Victim’s Death. A. C. Morgan, a man about 40 years old, was found by Policeman Gaynor shortly before 3 o'clock yesterday morning In an unconscious condition, and was taken to the Receiving Hospital, where he died shortly afterward. The deceased had evi- dently been a victim of the morphine habit and death resulted from natvral causes. The body is at the Morgue. fects in connection with the construc- tion of the new union depot and ferry house at the foot of Market street. Be- lieving that the people of the city and State were entitled to a full knowledge of the facts as they exist, these sugges- tions were taken up in their proper order and placed in the hands of com- petent experts who were instructed to inquire into the matter and report their findings without prejudice. With the substance of the reports so far made the readers of this paper are already familiar. They show, in brief, that the construction of the building from cap to corner stone has been marked by the grossest frauds and that the State has, by and with the consent of the members of the Board of Har- bor Commissioners and their supervis- ing architect, Edward R. Swain, been robbed of sums aggregating more than $100,000. They show, moreover, that while the immense appropriation has already been exhausted the building is still far from being completed and that, as It stands, it is, inside and out, a mass of inferior materials thrown to- | gether in a crude aud slipshod mannes. These things have been set forth in de- tail in these columns and will, no doubt, be taken up at the proper moment by the gentlemen who compose the pres- ent Grand Jury and whose duty it is to inquire into the acts of public officials whose greed of personal gain is greater than their desire to serve the public. In the midst of this mass of fraud and official corruption it is a pleasure to learn that there appears to be at least one item of construction for which the State’s coffers have been emptied which has not been made the subject of the greed that has made the partly finished structure a sham and a pre- tense. * This is the foundation upon which the building rests. Recently it was asserted that the foundation had been poorly constructed and that it had sunk several inches on the bay side. To ascertain the truth or falsity of this assertion The Call secured the services of a competent civil engineer and in- structed him to proceed with whatever measures were necessary to determine the facts of the matter. As has already been intimated his report shows that the assertions concerning the alleged instability of the foundationare without truth. The report is presented here- with in the same spirit of fairness that has marked every step in the work of BIGGY RESIGNS AS SUPERVISOR Prompt Action Heads Off All Complications That May Arise. Also Gives Up His Position in the Democratic County Com- mittee. Willlam J. Blggy, recently appointed Registrar of Voters for San Francisco County by Governor Budd, has passed in two resignations to the proper authorities since he was notified of his elevation to office, in order to head oft any possible complications. A question was raised as to whether his claims to holding the office of Supervisor, now pending before the Supreme Court, would not render him ineligible to offici- ate as Registrar. To obviate any such chance Mr. Biggy wrote his resignation to Governor Budd and Mayor Phelan, by both of whom he had been appointed, and received permis- sion to withdraw from the fight for Su- pervisor. Mr. Biggy's next move was to get him- self out of political complications. With this end in view he handed Colonel Sulli- van, Mayor Phelan’s secretary, his resig- nation as vice-chairman of the Demo- cratic County Committee, who in turn handed it to the chairman with the un- derstanding that it should be Immediately accepted. Mr. Biggy was introduced to the mem- bers of the Election Commission, after having filled his bond with the Auditor, and took possesssion of his new office. He stated that there would be no changes in the office at present, though it might be possible that some new appointments would be made later on. There is con- siderable speculation in the City Hall re- garding who will be the next Chief Dep- uty in the office. 3 —_———— SET FIRE TO A RESTAURANT. Nicholas Tendes and Constantine John Held for Arson. The preliminary examination of Nich- olas Tendes and Constantine John on the charge of arson was held before Judge Joachimsen yesterda. They were jointly accused of setting fire to the restaurant, 121 Fifth street, early last Wednesday morning. The evidence was practically the same as published In The 8&“ last Friday, and the Judge held the defendants to answer ‘before the Superior Court in $5000 bonds each. REGAN STIRRED MATTERS TP Ex-Jockey Claimed Her- moso and Hohenzol- lern Out of Races. WalterJenning's Sombre Again Turns Up a Stake Winner. Ostler Joe Won in a Gallop—Tod Sloan First on Three Cholces. Sim Regan, the owner of Lone Princess and two or three other equally poor bread- winners, formerly a jockey of some note, is picking up a stable prior to crossing the hills. He got himself a couple of very fair ones through the claiming clause yes- terday in Hermoso and Hohenzollern, and unless his bank roll gives out he is lfkely to claim the earth. In the second event Regan started Lone Princess, and her showing of speed fully justified the high price of hay. The high turn of speed ex- hibited by Hermoso caught Mr. Regan's fancy, so he filed a claim for the fast Sir Modred colt, entered to be sold for $800. J. A. Grey felt sorry to lose him, but with first money, $275 added, it looks a good price. In the mile and a sixteenth seliing affair Regan sent Outgo, a 300 to 1 chance, to the barrier. Elmwood stock farm had Hohenzollern, which ran fourth, in for $600, and the claiming clause sent the Brutus colt over to Regan’s barn. The latter is a very useful horse, and no doubt will hit the wire first on several occasions in the future. These two happenings were about the only incidents varying from the usual mo- notonous routine. Outsiders grabbed the first three purses, and then three favor- ites cakewalked in, making a stand-off. Sombre, the daughter of Midlothian and Miss Woodford, is considered undersized, but she has a fascinating way of captur- ing stakes that is catching the fancy of the talent. The books laid 5 to 1 against her annexing the Olympic stake for two- year-olds, at four and a half furlongs, but she packed Lonnie Clayton and 118 pounds and won rather easily from Sev- ens in :54%, after getting away from the 08t seventh. Frank lreland and Milt Young, the Corrigan duo, had first call In the ring, and the former just did manage to get the small end In a drive. “‘Skeets” Martin found no difficulty in taking the first race with La Mascota, the second _choice, beating the favorite, Lucky Star, to the wire by a head. Walter Jennings thought his mare Miss Lynah more than good enough to beat her company in the second event, at six furlongs, but she was stood on her head early in the game and failed to show, af- ter closing a 3 to 2 favorite. Valenclenne, at odds of 20 to 1, whistled through the stretch, winning eased up in 1:13%. Good Friend, another despised one, was second. Tod Sloan now took a hand. He rode Ostler Joe, the 11 to 20 favorite, in the mile and a half, and walting on Alvarado II to _the stretch, won galloping in 2:36%. The Bachelor downed Argentina, the only other starter, for the show. The mile and a sixteenth was replete with incidents. At the first turn Gotobed i was nearly thrown. Turning into the back stretch Cromwell was pulled up bleeding. As the bend for the wire was reached nasty fall. Hennessy on Hohenzollern was twisted about by a bump, and then after being nearly left at the post, Sloan got up with the favorite Satyr, winning in a drive from Marplot. In the last event, Linstock outclassed his field, winning easily from San Venado and covering the mile in 1:41%. =g dod TRACK ITEMS. E4 Tipton, manager of the Montana circuit, was 8 visitor at the track yesterday. Mr. Tip- ton was kept busy telling of the tempting in- Qucements his State held out to horsemen. The game appears to hold out better than ever this season. Twenty bookmakers cut in yesterday. Joe Rose was again on the block, but took time to play Valencienne on the out- side, beating the race to the extent of $2000. It looks very much as though Cromwell will have to be shelved. He bied in & race run last Friday, and was again pulled up yesterday. Lucky Star was plainly best in the first race, but McDonald s a very weak finisher at times, and allowed ‘'Skeets” Martin on La Mascota to smother him. There was & good Intelligent play on Mount Roy to win the opening scramble, the down- town barber shops even having the tip. Gus ‘Wilson, though, was more than the old gelding could stand for, and he stood at the post await- ing the result by telephone. If Wilson would only ride up to his work he would be quite & rider. The owners of Valencienne ought to send & painting on to the Paris salon, for their im- maculate gall would entitle them to al- most any old sort of & thing. Throw the filly's last two races out and she looked to have a royal chance. What her ailments were in those two events was not given out from the stand. Yet there were “‘suckers’ in plenty who backed her yesterday. Linstock now bobs up as a most likely can- didate for the Derby, to be decided on Saturday next. After winning yesterday’'s mile run he was worked on an additional quarter, and ac- cording to one well known trainer's watch covered the distance In 2:08 flat. Bowling s quite a prominent pastime to turf habitues, and on Saturday night, April 7, there will be a big match game bowled at a down- town resort between the Ingleside and Echo Clubs. The members of the former comprise the following well known horsemen: George Rose, W. Vreeland, W. Henderson, Horace Eg- bart, Jim Norvell'and Marc Davis. The en- semble of the Echoes is a strong one, and they agree to put the track folks out of business. They are: Messrs. Lux, Blondin, Harrls, Belan, Hilbert and Ehrenpfort. trike’ vell {s considered a ‘‘phenom,” and is one of the mainstays of the Inglesides. ST Ao TO-DAY'S ENTRIES.
