DUNMORe DOINGS.
Borough Council Is Deadlocked on
the Question of Awarding Con
tract for Sewer.
Tho borough council held a short and
exceedingly Interesting session at the bor
ough building last evening, with all mem
berso present. Tho purposo of tho meet
ing was the awarding of tho Bewcr con
tract, but tho largo number probcnt were
once more disappointed, tho members be
ing unablo to ngreo as to tho lowest and
most responsible bidder.
After a long secret session. Mr. Doudl
can reported to tho council, for tho sewer
committee, that tho majority of the com
mittee reported that there were only two
responsible bidders, Donohuo & O'Boyle
and M. J. Gibbons, of Scranton. Mr.
Brogan dissented from the commltee's
flnlndlngs. Donhue & O'Boyl'o bid was
$67,638.85 and M. J. Gibbons' bid was J74,
534.35. A resolution was Introduced by
Mr. McLaughlin, nwaidlng tho contract
to Donohuo & O'Boyle, but tho motion
to adopt was lost, Messrs. McLaughlin,
Brogan and Doudlcan being In favor of,
nnd Messrs. O'lJoyle, Conry and McAllis
ter agulnst. Mr. McAllister then Intro
duced a resolution awarding tho con
tract to M. J. Gibbons, but tho vote re
mained the samo and tho resolution wus
lost, us before.
Tho matter upon which tho members
appear to bo divided is In tho amount
of rock to bo removed, The cstinmto of
ex-Borough Engineer Knight gives iS.OOO
feet as tho npproxlmuto quantity. Dona
huo & O'Boylo's bid was 33u per foot for
rock work and Gibbons' prlco was CO por
foot. While tho total figures show
O'Boylo & Donohuo to bo about J7.000 low,
It Is claimed by tho friend? of Gibbous
that tho amount of rock estimated Is
high, and that figuring on 'J0.000 feet of
rock, which Is moro likely, would bring
tho bids less than $100 apart.
Tho bid of tho Joseph Handler Con
struction company, of Wllkcs-Barre, was
not considered, us tho sower commlttco
had decided that they wero not respon
sible, owing to their being 'now engaged
In some litigation la Luzerne county. It
was understood that, ns mutters stand,
their bid Is, tho lowest before councils,
their prlco for rock work being 28 cents
per foot. It would seem that their cer
tified check for $500, to bo forfeited In
enso of their failure to execute a can
tract and give it $20,000 bond within ten
days should bo a sufficient guarantee
to Justify tho council In awarding thorn
tho contract, and then, In tho event of
their failure, to qualify, tho certified
check would more than pay nny addi
tional expense that might bo incurred.
