The Controversy Which Led to Metcalfe's Dismissal Now Ended A New York Concern Loses a Job Held For Sixteen Washington, July 2. Postmaster General Payne has awarded the con tract for printing the money order blanks of the government to Paul Her man of Rutherford, N. J. Mr. Herman was the lowest of 14 bidders and the award of the contract, which involves the payment of between $800,000 and $230,000 durins the next fiscal year, will effect a savins of nearly $45,000 in the four years' contract.

Herman's bid was opposed by the present contractor, the Wynkop, Hallenbeck, Crawford company of New Tork, and the United Typothetae of America. Superinten dent Metcalfe of the money order tur eau was dismissed some days ago on the charge Of indiscretion in seeking the withdrawal of Herman as a bidder in favor of the present contractor, At a final hearing before the post master general Herman rurnisnea.an affidavit that he had been employed by the present contractors for' nearly ten years and had no idea of competing with them when he left their employ, which, he said, was before the specifications, taken up. He made search for. work and says that he concluded he had been practically blacklisted in the trade and thereupon decided to start out for himself on a financial backing proffered by an intimate friend. submitted other evidence to show that he was not a straw bidder, as alleged, and swore that he has not, directly or indirectly, assigned any interest whatever in the contract.

Tried to Buy Him Off. He testified that the firm which objected to his securing the contract offered to re-employ him, after bids had been opened, at an increased salary, provided he would withdraw his bid, which offer he rejected. Mr. Hallenbeck, Herman' said, offered h'm, if he would withdraw his bid, $60 a week and a large part of 25 per cent, of the net profits of his business, which he would guarantee to be at least $5,000 a year, in addition to his salary. He said Mr.

Tooker of the Metropolitan Printing company offered to pay him $5,000 if he would agree to execute the contract in that establishment and let them share in the contract and to make a contract for five years to pay him $100 per week salary. These prop-ositons he rejected. The award to Herman was based on an opinion by Assistant Attorney General Robb, holding that Herman's bid was made in good faith, 'that he has substantially complied with every condition prescribed in the specifications, and that to disregard the bid upon the objections raised would be against both reason and sound public policy. Mr. Robb held that Herman's bid is in regular form and Herman is exceptionally qualified, so far as mechanical ability is concerned, to execute the contract." The New York company by yesterday's award loses the contract which it has held for 16 years.

Both Herman and a delegation from the typhothetae were given hearings before the postmaster general yesterday at which al sides of the question were discussed. o- Dr. Gies, the chiropodist of Youngstown, will remain at the Empire until Friday noon.

pooeTphysician. Infirmary Directors at last Secured One. Dr. E. A.

Montenyolil Had the Low-r est Bid and It Was Accepted Antitoxine and Serum Will be Furnished by County and City. It appeared for a short time Thursday morning that the question of furnishing antitoxine in diphtheria cases and the furnishing of serum in cases of lockjaw, which would come under the care of the poor physician, would seriously interfere with the employing of Dr. Edward A. Montenyohl to look after the poor practice of the city. The board of infirmary directors and the board of public service held a Joint meeting in the office of the latter board Thursday morning, and after much discussion it was decided to accept Dr.

Montenyohl's bid of $240 per year, which was the lowest. It was agreed that the "county should stand one-half of the expense and the -city the remainder. The bid of Dr. Montenyohl was not accepted until he agreed to furnish all medicines used in the poor practice with the exception, of antitoxine and serum used by the physician in his treatment of the poor. Dr.

Montenyohl's bid is considered very reasonable. The highest bid was $600. The infirmary director paid $30 last year for antitoxine. THE DOW LAW. Interpretation of It is Causing Much Apprefiension.

The recent decision of the supreme court in the "Bishop's beer" case, holding it taxable under the Dow law. seems destined to make trouble for somebody. According to the provisions of the law it seems j.iobable that even the syrups used at soda fountains may come under the and the auditor of state is being besieged by persons who want to know what to do. It is claimed that, as the amount of alcohol is not material, according to the' recent decision, it makes no difference whether the alcohol is handed over a bar or is furnished at a soda fountain. Another question raised is whether the sale of patent and proprietary medicnes containing alcohol is not taxable.
