CITY ITEMS. iro the hoard of coMwrssroxens ov the (HIIAIID TRUST. Oenti.KmBn: On October 2T, 1870, we wrote you he following letter, or words to this effect, to which we have had no reply: "As tax-payers andfor the mbito good and Interest of the estate we arc rompted to address you opon a subject that we toped could have been avoided ; but a sense of duty knd honor compels us to make the following state- nent: On the 22d day of April, 1370, we were In vited to estimate for erecting a furnace tn dwelling No. 605 Coatcs street, belonging to the Glrard estate. revlous to onr erecting the furnace Mr. J. II. iMlchcner, of the Board of TrnstR, called at our stabllshraent and made Inspection of our goods, and tironounccd them first-class, and said that he was favorably Impressed with the workmanship of the fame, ine coniraui wis aw. men iu ua iiuui mc fact that our bid was the lowest and our work and Inaterlals approved as first-clans, and as good as any ther parties' estimating; so stated by Mr. Cavla, n.gent of the estate. "We completed the furnace.and it was pronounced i flrst-class Job in every respect. We would be pleased for your body to visit the samo for Inspec tor On the 16th day of May, 1S70, Mr. Cavin, hgent of the estate, called upon us by authority of Mr. Michoncr, inviting us to make a bid and eati- uate for erecting a furnace in dwelling No, 110S Ilrard street, owned by the estate, specify ng that the furnace was to be made of No. 14 iron Mates, and to be a firat-class Job in every particular, find assuring us that if our bid was lowest according o specldcaiion, the contract would be awarded o us. Mr. cavin laid that Mr. Mlohcner au thorized him to so state. According to tliospecid Latlon and in good faith with Mr. Michencr and Mr. bavin, we estimated for the work. Our bid was the lowest, being so informed by Mr. Cavin, agent, bat for some reasons unknown to ns Mr. J. II. Michener awarded the contract to the highest bidder. We would state that we manufacture a furnace of pre cisely the same kind of metals and on the same principle as that of the party who received the contract, and for less money than they can jbe manufactured ror in tne united states, which we think a much inferior heater in comparison to our Russian Furnace. We so ptated tho fact to Mr. Michener and Mr. Cavin pre vious to our contracting. We would ask, in Justice fo ourselves, and for the public good and interest to he Glrard estate, and as an honorable business .transaction with Mr. Michener, why we should be so dealt with? We wrote to Mr. Michener ia reference to the matter, but were treated with silence. Now, inasmuch as Mr. Michener was officiating as what may be termed a public officer, and for the public good, and as our bid was lowest, and having been i nvlted by him to estimate, and as our time was con sumed In making Investigations of (lues, etc., of the bouse, we should have been treated with at least common politeness. We feel satisfied that Mr. Michener would not act as he did in his own interest, and as tax-payers we do not think he has a rlgtt to violate the trust placed in him. We do not wish to comment further upon ,the matter, but will leave you these facts to Judge for yourselves: Since Mr. Michener speciied No. 14 iron, accepted one bid from us, and approved our work, pronouncing it first class, and assuring us that if our bid was lowest that the contract would be awarded to us, was he not in honor bound to award ns the contract? We are cognlzint of the fact that all contracts given are subject to the de cision of the chairman, as he is the Judge of the owi st and best bidder. Through Mr. Oavin he has acknowledged that our bid was the lowest. lie also acknowledged that it was according to specification ; and we can also prove by others that we are the best Vblddersjand that our work will compare, .In excel nenceand quality, .with any establishment in this country or Europe. If our work was flrst-class Ifor No. 605 Coates street, and so pruounced by Mr. Michener, why cast our bid aside for No. 1103 oirard (street, and contract with other parties at a much Vadvanced price ? We now have furnaces in use twenty years, and in perfect condition. We have been doing work for the estate for the last several years, and Mr. Cavlu, agent for the estate, can tes tify that our work has given general and entire satisfaction to all concerned. Our fruitless efforts to obtain any satisfaction from Mr. Michener prompted us to write to some of your com mlttee, '.for which Mr. Michener took offense, and asserted that we should be cut out entirely from any further business with the estate ; which threat he has fully enforced. We have not made this state ment to solicit the work of the estate, as we feel satisfied that it would be useless so long us Mr I Michener is a member of the Trust ; but we do so for the purpose of making known a serious evil existing la the Trust that of allowing one member F . , .. . ... .1 . IT V. - I informed that the Board or Trusts knew nothing or this matter until one or the members was so Inrormcd by us. We would most respec dully invite your committee to visit our works and Inspect our goods, and also inspect work done by us for the estate years ago, and pass your Judgment upon it accordingly. As good citi zens, heavy tax-payers, and desiring the good of;the public and interest of the estate, we have taken the liberty to occupy your time in this matter. We have understood that but two parties were invited to bid upon the contracts Just awarded, to the amount ; of several thousand of doll ;rs for the new row of houses on sixth street, below Brown street. bullt by the Trust. Sid Mr. Mltchener fear ttiat had we been invited that we would haw Seen the lowest and the best bidders, and no donbt sved the estate some several hundred dol lars? Mr. Mlchenei, through personal feelings, has accomplished that which we think is detrimental to the public good and lntreBt or the estate. We would most respectfully ask that you now give us a hearing, and a fair investigation of the above mat ter, trusting thatyou wiU take in consideration that we, as well as all citizens, are interested in the welfare or the Glrard Trusts. Very respectfully, Your obedient servants, Daniel Mkkmjon s SONS, Noithwest corner Tweiun am Filbert Sta. What is Dyspepsia? The Question Settled. Two young medical students were disputing the Other day, at the house of a mutual friend, as to the nature of dyspepsia. One said tho primary cause was a diseased liver; the other insisted that the disease originated in the epigastrium. "I can tell you what dyspepsia is, lor I've been there," ob served the bos', laughingly. "Well," said one of the young medicos, "let's have your opinion."
