These Really Suspicious.
AS TO KAYsVILLE BONDS.
Mayor Tells About the Dealings
With Hope.
Especial to The Herald.)

Kaysville, July 13.-Speaking of the Of
fer made by BeresfOrd Hope to a Toronto
(Canada) firm to sell $4,000 worth of
Pennington City 615 per cent bonds, May
or j. H. Robinson of Pennington said to-
day that Hope never had the least au-
thorizatiOn to negotiate the sale of the
bonds. Indeed, the bonds are not yet
printed, though they will be shortly.
When they are issued the entire series
will be taken by the state land board at
a premium that will give the city its
money for WaterwOrks at 5 per cent.
Questioned as to what he knew OF
Hope, Mayor Robinson said that when
the issuing of bonds was under discus
sion some months ago. Dr. Charles +.
Wilcox called him up by telephone and
told him of Hope, and suggested that the
city could probably dispose of the bonds
advantageously through the English
promoter" An interview was arranged
and Mayor Robinson met DR.. Wilcox in
Salt Lake.
They went together to Hopes office and
discussed the deal. Hope finally made an
offer for the bonds. which, however, was
not an attractive one, and the negotia-
tons ended there. Hope did not visit
Pennington, nor did he institute any in
quiry concerning the city's financial, con-
dition. He did express his opinion how
ever. to the effect that if he had been
consulted before the bond election had
been called he could have taken the whole
matter in charge and obtained the money
at AZ per cent, in which event, he said.
his commission would have been 500. He

Mayor Robinson says Hope impressed
him as a straight and square business
man.
