NO ASSURANCE. CAUSE
power Company Has Not Assured the
quincy Association Of Rates for
Current and They May
Draw Out.

Quincy Wing: AS the result of the
failure or refusal of the Mississippi
River Power company, at Keokuk, to
furnish Quincy with definite rate
sheet, Indicating at what rate the fac
tories in and around this city will be
supplied with power, it is possible
that the industrial fund which was
recently raised, will be held up indef-
initely. BY this it is meant that, prob
ably no more of the money will be
spent, only on contracts that are now
entered into, until satisfactory ar
rangements have been made with the
Mississippi River Power company.
The board of trustees of the indus
trial fund Of the. city met last Satur-
day, and at that time took action sim
liar 10 the above. resolution was
prepared which will be presented to
the executive committee at its next
meeting. What action will be taken,
or with what attitude the executive
committee views the situation, still
remains to be seen.
The Chamber of Commerce off,
ctals have had several conferences
with Hugh Cooper and Mr. Trawick
of the power company, but as yet no
satisfactory results have been obtain
ed, although Mr.. Cooper has offered
to refund to the city the amount that
has been expended since the fund has
been raised, for the purpose of locat-
ing or inducing new factories to come
to this city. While the mere refund
ing of the money will not better the
conditions to any notable extent,
some of the trustees are in favor of
allowing the big corporation to do SO.
The Resolution. :
The following Is the resolution that
will be presented to the executive
committee:
Whereas it appears to the board
OF trustees of the industrial fund OF
the Chamber Of Commerce that the
mississippi River Power company is
not disposed to offer rates on power
to industries locating in or likely to
ioSdle III Ut near SRuIHCy, dllu
Whereas. 1t seems unwise, in our
opinion, to continue expending the
fund provided by our citizens until
satisfactory arrangements as to rates
and delivery of power have been
made with the Mississippi River
Power company;
Therefore, be is resolved that WE
request the executive committee Of
the Chamber OF Commerce to advise
us as to whether it is wise to con
tinue the expenditures from said
fund, other than on contracts now
entered into, and on negotiations nov
actually pending with prospective in
dustries, until satisfactory arrange
ments have been made with the Mis-
sissippi River. Power company, as t.
rates and delivery of power"
A statement of all money expended
from the fund, Including Industrial
Agent Wilson's salary, money ex
pended for roadwork, Wilson's per

penses as have been incurred, has
been prepared by Secretary Perry

WELDON ENTERTAINED
BY CLUB MEMBERS
Pacific Coast Surety Manager
Is Guest Of Honor at
Gathering.

r.. y. Weldon, Pacific coast district
manager for the American surety com
pany, was guest OF honor and principal
sneaker at meeting Of the Salt Lake
association of surety men at the Com
mcrcial club last evening. Mr.. Weldon
aud those present were entertained by
Wesley T.. King, manager OF the loca!
branch of the company.
During his discussion OF various mat
ters pertaining 10 the surety business,
Mr., Weldon laid special emphasis on
the advisability of eliminating as far
as possible the brokerage phase OF the
business. He told of conditions in
other localities within his district. and
recited instances showing that commls-
sion brokerage in the surety business
Was not practical or beneficial to the
surety agents and companies. He also
spoke at length on the advisability OF
securing legislation for the appointment
of a code commission for the state to
protect surety companies by properly
drawn up bond forms.
Following Mr.. Weldon s address, a
general discussion followed, in which
Wilford Moylc, Wesley z. King. Charles
Johnson and others participated. In
connection with bond forms. II was
brought ont that in many instances per
sons went on bonds in given amount,
being led to believe that each was re:
sponsiblc only for that part of the full
amount AS represented by dividing the
full amount by the number Of personal
sureties, whereas each Is held respon-
sible for the full amount. 1t was said
that the state statutes were silent or
the matter, AMI the speaker urged that
proper legislation be secured
A further discussion of these and
other matters will be taken up by the
association at an adjourned session tc
be held March !. when it is expected
that plans will result for the elimina
tion Of surety brokerage in this city
to a large degree.

CONDITIONS SOUND
IN MONEY MARKET

Sound conditions prevailed In local
financial circles during the past week
according to the reports of bankers and
business men, The feature of the week
was the noticeable increase in bank
cleariugs, the figures for the week be-
ing $2,5O1 ,697,73 in excess of those for
the corresponding week last year. The
increase is ~ per cent. The total clear.
ings for the week amounted TO 81 sol, :

Now that the city aud state tax

feel clated over the clearing house in

healthy trade.
The week WAS not especially active
in local stocks. The demand has been
strongest for the stock of the sugar
companies and the Consolidated Wagon

upward tendencies,
Interest in local banking circles has
hecu centerod on the new rulings laid
down by the comptroller of currency
as to the conduct Of national bank
One of these rules provides that ma

For the most part, local national bank
officials hold that neither rule will

An especially gratifying feature oi
the week was the good prices secured

may be said of the sugar market.
