Beauties of Columbia.

AT meeting Of the park board com
mittee on improvements yesterday, it
was voted to recommend that $4,000
be expended on the Improvement, Of

The committee provided $500 for roof
ing over the band stand at the Lake

The sum Of $3.50 was set aside for
footpath along St. Anthony parkway
and parapet wall at Bridal Veil falls,
at the east end Of the Franklin ave.
No merry-go.rounds will be tolerated
at Minnehaha this summer as far as
the park board has any authority to
prevent it. G. G. Patten has sought
to secure the. privilege, but the com
mittee on improvements yesterday

in that part Of the city and refused to
entertain Mr.. Patten's offer. The dele,
cation from the falls was headed by

WANT A NEW PARK
North Side People Propose One at End
of Plymouth Avenue.

The North Side Commercial club last
night decided to bend every ef-
fort toward securing park
to be bounded by Tenth ave
and the city limits. This tract is es-
pecially suitable for park purposes and
the North Side residents are anxious to
have it made into one. The club and
individual members will bend every
energy along this line.
1t was decided to form a ladies
auxiliary to the club. It was also pro-
posed that the McNair farm be pur-
chased and used for the North high
school athletic field and smaller park.

TRIES TO RECALL PAYMENT OF
MUMM CONTEST EXPENSES.
Ninth Ward Alderman Makes Unsuc-
cessful Effort to Protect Treasury
May Renew It at Next Meeting
Committee Named to Investigate For
age Question-Grade Crossing Reso-
lutions offered.

Alderman Frank III. Castner stirred
up the council last evening by attempt
ing to recall the resolution reimbursing
Alderman Claus Mumm for his ex-
penses in defending the contest by
Orvar G. Rosing, last fall. Mr..
Cashier was virtuously indignant, also
aggressive, and after approaching the
subject from three or four different di-
rections and being regularly turned
down by President A. E. Merrill, he had
created an unusual disturbance. Mr..
Cashier declared that the council had
no right to vote away the people IS
money for the individual benefit of the
aldermen and wanted the former action
rescinded. Alderman G.. A. Westphal
made the point of order that there
could be no reconsideration, as there
were not as many aldermen present as
when the original resolution was
passed, and the point was sustained.
Mr.. Cashier tartly replied that he
was not making motion to reconsider
a vote, but to rescind an illegal action.
President Merrill consulted City At
torney Healy and announced that that
official held that the motion was out of
order.
"What has the city attorney to do
with parliamentary practice governing
this body?' demanded the alderman,
tiercely.
\ The chair ruled that a motion to re-
consider the vote was out of order at
that meeting, but at the next meeting
resolution to rescind would be in
order

Alderman Cashier was conspicuous in
two smaller furries Of the evening. He
appeared as the champion of II. G. KEEP
at the International cafe. It was ex-
planned that the private dining rooms to
which objection has been made had
been placed in a condition satisfactory
to the license inspector, but Alderman
G.. A. Westphal and others took up the
fight against the "heathen Chinee'
started by Alderman J. H. Duryea, and
the application was refused by vote
of ii to 10. --a.
Mr.. Castner attempted to have the
allowances for forage cut out. Of the
payroll for the month of April. He
could not get a second to his motion.
Later he demanded an investigation in
what he called the "forage graft, -
and the matter was referred to COM
mittee consisting of one alderman from
each ward, which President Merrill
will announce later.

Stocks and Bonds.

New York. June 13-The move
ment of stocks today rejected the
further disappointment of professional
operators over the failure of any gem
eral interest in the market TO revive
as a result of the Equitable Life pan
of settlement and the prospect OF
peace in the Far East. That is about
all that can be said of the market 70
offer any degree of enlightenment. IL
was with the expectation that the re-
sumption of operations in foreign
markets would show the effect OF the
peace developments since the ad-
journment of last Friday that the
local operators marked up prices late
in the day yesterday. The London
market availed itself of this oppor-
tunity this morning to sell about 30
900 of American stocks in New YORK.
The definite abandonment OF any nope
of speculative revival on account Oh
the peace negotiations Immediately
followed. The crop bulletin of the
weather bureau received an unfavora-
BILE Interpretation in the commodities
markets. The conditions reported for
corn and cotton were considered I'M
satisfactory while much was made of
the disappointing yield reported from
the winter wheat being harvested, and
the improved condition of spring
wheat was practically ignored The
increase shown in the May reports of
agricultural products of nearly $22.-
000, 900 over May of last year did not
help the market. The expansion in
cotto mas reported during the month
to 632.713 bales. against 1920 bales
in May of last year was the note
worthy feature of the showing. Re-
ports of large increases IN the yearly
net earnings of Amalgamated Coppers
subsidiary companies did not save the
stock from being one of the weakest
of the list. The uninterrupted ease
ruling in the money market took that
subject practically out of considera-
ton. The market showed no effective
power toward recovery and though

easy.

New York. June 13.-The cotton
market was much more active and
after a lower opening had a very
strong advance on covering and bull

The opening was weak at a decline
of to 10 points, which was hardly as
much as due on lower cables and the
excellent weather indicated by the
early map. Offerings were also pro-
NOTED by expectations of bearish
weekly crop report at midday, but
as soon as the first rush of selling or
ders had subsidized, prices began TO
work higher on buying credited to
leading Philadelphia spot interests,
and to the recent local bear leader.
Some scattering demand was also at
tracted by the reports of generally
firm spot markets in the South. and
the market had just about recovered
its early loss by midday, when the
weekly bureau report showing only
a slight Improvement nthe condition
of the crop, was followed by an active
buying movement During the entire
afternoon the market was more or
less active with final prices steady
within a point or two of the highest
at a net advance of II to 20 points.
Sales futures We're estimated at $780,
900 bales. Weather reports during
the day were considered good, but
seemed to have little influence on the
market.
Receipts at the ports today were
1862 bales, against 23,767 last week
and 1,779 last year. For the week
