AT JUNEAU B. P. ROAD
SEIMS & CARLSON BID $108,890 ON
MOOSE PASS ROAD; HIGHER
THAN EXPECTED
WILL BE DONE BY DAY LABOR
Will Not Call for Bids Again Owing
To Short Period Time Avail
able to Work.
Bids on four Alaskan road con- j
struction projects aggregating over j
3350,000 were opened at Juneau last
week by M. D. Williams, assistant
district engineer, U. S. Bureau of
Public Roads. All four of the ten
ders were submitted by Seims & Carl
son, Spokane contractors who have
been building roads in the Territory
for several years.
The bidder was represented by G.
A. Carlson, president and senior mem
ber of the firm.
Awards One Contract.
■ The four projects covered by the
bids were: Mendenhall Loop and
bridge, Glacier Highway; Saxman
Mountain Point section, Tongass
Highway, Ketchikan; Salmon River
Highway, Hyder; Hope-Sunrise sec
tion on the Moose Pass route on The
Alaska Railroad.
• Mr. Carlson’s bid on the Saxman
’ Mountain Point job was $107,313.50.
J Mr. Williams announced that this
| would be accepted.

The bid on tbe Salmon River pro
ject was $124,000, some 25 per cent
higher than the Bureau’s estimates.
That on the Moose Pass job was
$102,890, more than $10,000 above the
Bureau’s estimates. It was intimated
that both tenders were considered
too high and that the Bureau would
recommend that the work on both be
done by day labor under the Bureau’s
own supervision. It is too late in the
season, Mr. Williams said, to re-adver
tise the work as it would take from 30
to 40 days to accomplish this, and,
although it were possible that lower
bids might be tendered, it would then
be too late in the year to do any work
this year.
Bridge Is Undecided.
The bid for the Mendenhall Loop
and bridge was still up in the air this
morning. Mr. Carlson bid $18,000 for
the completed job, which was slightly
in excess of the Bureau’s total figure.
However, his figures on the bridge
were considerably in excess of the es
timates furnished by the Portland
bridge engineer’s office. Mr. Carlson
said this was accounted for by the dif
ference in estimates of the quantity
of lumber submitted by himself and
as figured by the engineers. This will
be checked up and if it is found that
the estimates used by Mr. Carlson are
correct, it is possible he will be award
ed the contract.
ADAMS ST. IMPROVEMENT
The sum of $300 was allowed, at
Monday night’s meeting of the City
Council, for the coming month’s im
provements, on Adams St. Other j
sums are to be expended on numer- j
ous other streets and avenues.
