Connell. The improvement was provided for in a bond issue three years ago, but the bonds were never sold. Two legitimate bids are being considered, the Hagen Lumber company submitting a proposal to do the work for JO. 998, and M. Rosato Sons for $11, 400.

The Lackawanna Construction company's bid for $9,112. 3 arrived a few minutes too late, and may be rejected on this account. Strenuous opposition to the building of the station house in South Scranton has been put forth by members of the WI1 Hams Apgar Tropp combination of coun cl. who endeavored to have Director Ripple agree to transfer the $14,000 appropriation to a general fund for other improvements. The city fathers took the stand that the records for arrests In South Scranton during the past year, since the adveet of prohibition, did not Justify the erection of the building at this time.

In the event that work is begun as soon as is expected the building will in all probability be ready for occupancy this fall It is to be located on Alder street, and the present wooden building will be torn down. The later structure has no cell room, and all prisoners are brought to the central city. Bids were asked a few months ago by Director Ripple, but the two proposals received were rejected as being excessive, and a second advertisement was made a few weeks ago. The city Is to let separate contracts for the plumbing and wiring of the building and these contracts will also be let this woek. In addition, the department is to award contracts for fire hose for a new Ford car, and for fire alarm boxes and registers.
