Liverpool. June 17.-There was a Arm
undertone to the speculative wheat
market this morning with prices u to
q higher and following the opening
further advanced " with shorts rather
nervous. Support was due to a private
cable received here from Chicago by
a leading firm which was very bullish
on winter wheat and this started
shorts to covering. Support was
further encouraged by less favorable
reports from Roumania. expectations
OF lighter worlds shipments than were
expected, smaller American shipments
as indicated by Bradstreets and some
further demand from the continent.
The market toward the close showed
some disposition toward realizing but
prominent support checked the decline
and at the close the undertone was
firm and u to q higher than yester-
day. Shorts covered in October with
q moderate demand for Manitoba par
cells. The corn market opened un-
changed and later September advanc-
ed u with the general undertone steady
with an improved demand for distant
European offers. BroomhaH.

WILL NOT sign
Until ORDERED

Bonds sold by the city and the park
will not be certified by the city treas
from the court TO do so.
City Treasurer Mitchell said this
morning, II understand that the park
commission has sold $4,000 worth of
bonds to the Wells Dickey Co. Of Min
neapolis. but do not expect to certi-
fly these bonds. / am under q bond
Of 100000 and do not feel that l can
afford to certify the bonds Of the park
commission and take the. responsibility
for the same. Unless the district court
so orders me, / do not intend to GER
tify the bonds, but with an order
from the court then the responsibility
will be taken off my shoulders. How
ever, / am told that the park COM
mission does not need my certifcation
on their bonds. Neither do I expect
to certify the bonds of the school
board nor the city in the filtration
matters unless ordered to do so by the
court.
However, all the suits, II brought,
will be friendly suits, as far as / am
concerned. All that / ask is not to be
made responsible in the cases of bond
issue"
Mr.. Porterf1eld. member of the park
commission stated this morning to a
representative OF The Forum that to
his best judgment, sit is not necessary
for the city treasurer to certify the
bonds of the park board. The law is
very broad in its scope and gives the
park commission great deal of power
relative to the issuance and sale of
bonds. We have expert opinions from
three very able lawyers and we do not
believe that we need the treasurers
signature on the bonds, was the state
ment of Mr.. porterfield today.
However, it is intimated and under
stood in local circles that the Wells
Dickey Co., of Minneapolis, would not
be willing to purchase the bonds unless
they were certified by the city treas
Urer.

result of the game at Baker on picnic
