THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH. TUESDAY ' MAY 24. 1892. 5 BIDS TAKE A TUMBLE. The First Fruits of the Kcw Interest- Paving Ordinance Are PLUCKED BY CHIEF BIGELOW. Citj Contractors Willinjr to Work for Much Jxjwer Prices. STILL CHEAPER EATES ANTICIPATED The first fruits of the -new ordinance signed and made a law br the Mayor last Friday, prowding for the payment of in terest on street improvements from the time of completion until collections begin, were shown yesterday in the bids opened for street repairing. Chief Bigelow spent three hours opening and reading 143 bids on 37 repaying contracts, but owing to the variance in the figures for grading, curb setting and laying of crossings, it will re require considerable figuring to compute which bidder gets each contract. The awards will be made to-morrow, and the wort must all be completed by September 15. In the proposals made yesterday the figures of the lowest bidders for laying pave ments were considerably lower than hereto fore. The lowest price for asphalt was S2 80 per square yard, and for regular block stone 52 71. These are the lowest figures, accord ing to Chief Bigelow, that have ever been reached in this city, and are lower than in anv other city in the country for the same class of work excepting "Washington, D. C. Last year's rates on asphalt were from $3 to ?3 34, and on block stone from S3 15 to 53 sa May Try the 'Washington Plan. "However," said the Chief, "Washing ton's specifications call for a much lighter foundation than any of the bids opened to day call for. As we propose to try some of that kind of work we may get down to Washington figures. I will open bids on Wednesday for paving several streets on the "Washington plan. There is no doubt in my mind but that the ordinance passed last week bv Councils is to be credited for the reduced rates. It has restored competition, and the basis of 10 or 12 years ago for work rmm Jollow. I look for even greater com petition and lower prices before very long." In the bids opened yesterday Booth & Flinn were the lowest bidders for paving in n majority of cases, Sloan & SIcIlvaine and Evan Jones being a few cents hisjlier on all but a lew contracts. Evan Jones though within 2 or 3 cents of the lowest in ajiura ber of cases was not the lowest on any for paving, though he underbid the others in some instances tor grading and curbing and may get some of the contracts in conse quence. The highest bidders on paving were Keeling, Ridge & Co. and Carson & Orr, their fitrures being about the same all through as last year's rates. The repaving included in the" list aggregates more than 5300,000, and with the lowest bidder, for paving only, is as follows: Tlio Lowest Bids on Contracts.

Auditor McCurdy, of Allegheny, re fused yesterday to cither deny or affirm the report that a second audit of ex-Mayor Wyman's books had been -n.-ie. A gen eral audit lad been made, he odmited, but beyond this, all direct questions were evasively answered. From authentic source comes the inform ation that' the reformersire at the bottom of the second audit, and the result will be used as a lever in preventing the ex-Mayor from re-entering political life. It is understood that the reformers hold some important points against Mr. AVynian in addition to the three indictments, and the moment his political influence becomes apparent, or is felt in any slight degree, there will be an emphatic move made bv the reformers, and ex-Mayor Wyman will again be placed in durance vile. As a result of these reports there is more or less agitation in Allegheny among the politi cians of both factions, and conflicting rumors are prevalent trom all sources. A prominent reformer in speaking upon the subject, jesterday, said there was no doubt but what ex-Mayor Wyman would be so seriously affected by the second audit, that he would not re-enter politics at all. "We all appreciate his influence," con tinued the gentleman, "and realize that our power is much greater with him out of the field." CHAEIVABIED THE CAPTAIN. He Objected to the Nolso on His Nuptial Night and Entered Suit. William Lickmau. charged with mali cious mischief in participating'in a chari vari, was discharged by Alderman McMasters, as the witnesses for the prose cution could not identity him as being one of the party. Captain James Large, of Guildhall, the prosecuting witness, stated that he was married on the 18th inst. A crowd serenaded him, but became so boisterous that he was obliged to go out and drive them off. He had hardly got back in the house when they returned and became more boisterous than ever, throwing stones through the windows, breaking the shrubbery and he thought exploding dynamite. He made the in formation charging William Lickman and 0. F. Irving with being the instigators of the outrage. Irving has not been arrested as yet. nUJiDREDS or rooms rented everywoek by advertising In the cent a word "to Lot rooms' advertising columns of THE DIS PATCH. Ate Something Besides Pickles.

Chicago, May 2a The sixteenth an nual Convention of the Millers' National Association of the United States will begin to-morrow at the Grand Pacifio Hotel. Lively times are expected over Hatch's anti-option bill now pending in Coneress. The country members, it is said, will be pitted ajamst the "city fellers." An at tempt will be made to prevent the Associa tion from putting itself on record on the measure, but the prospects are that those who favor the bill will be able to force the Convention to a vote. Senator "Washburn, of Minnesota, will, it is understood, lead the attack on the enemies ot the bill. The Association is already on record as opposed to the Board of Trade speculation, a resolution having been passed at the con vention two years ago indorsing the Butter worth bill. Many members declare, how ever, that the vote did not fairly represent the sentiment of the Association, the reso lution having been rushed through with a hurrah. The Board of Trade sent one of its representatives to the Secretary to-day in viting the Association to hold its session in the Call Board rooms of the Board of Trade. Thus the unique spectacle of the millers denouncing options in a hall not SO feet from "Ed" Pardridge and the grain pit may be witnessed. Charged With mbczzlement. I. M. Penn oct, the Fourth avenue real estate dealer, gave bail yesterday for a hear ing before Alderman McKenna on a charge ot embezzlement. The prosecutrix, Sarah A. Taper, lives on Fayette street, and owns a a number of houses there. She employed Pennock to collect her rents, and alleges that about the first of the year he collected 589 50 which he converted" to his own use, and never made any pretense of concealing the iact.
