SURETY FIRMS
SHY AT CONCRETE
Five Year Guarantee Hard
to Secure According to
City Engineer.
DON'T LIKE CRACKS
Engineer Declares Companies
viii Give Bonds Guaran-
teeing Roads Two Years.

Concrete pavements for Kenosha
were regarded as doubtful possibiI-
lty today as a result of action of GER
tain surety companies in declining to
give the usual contractors bonds pro
vlding for a five-year guarantee of
such pavements. But three stretches
OF concrete pavements are contracted
for in Kenosha and it is believed that
contractors viii be able to furnish.
personal bonds to cover the guaran-
tee on such pavements but it is admit
ted that the officials of the city prefer
bonds signed by surety companies to
the personal bonds. 1t is admitted
that the change in the attitude Of the
bonding companies will have a large
effect on the laying of such pavements
in Kenosha in the future. On all
pavements the city has insisted on
bond providing guarantee for five
years. These bonds have been fur
nished in the past without question.
Bonding Companies Uncertain.
1--WE are advised that the bonding
companies will not sign the fve-year
guarantee bonds for pavements of his
class" said City Engineer Hurtgen.
Il am advised that these companies
are all but unanimous in the decision
not to sign any bond for more than
two-year guarantee on such pave
ments and these bonds will be signed
only for contractors who have the
highest reputation for their work. I
am of the opinion that property own
ers will insist on a fve-year guaran-
tee for their pavement work and if
such demand is made the only thing
left is to accept personal bonds. Sew
eral contracts for the city have been
let in the past on these kinds of bonds
as surety but the preference has al
ways been for surety bonds + am
advised that the hesitancy on the part
of the bonding companies to give the
bonds asked for is due ito some of the
failures of concrete pavement to meet
rigid demands made upon it."
Cracked Pavements in Many Places.

tee by some of the companies Many
miles of concrete pavement. have been
laid in Kenosha county and iali1of 1t
has been laid under a guarantee. 1t
is planned to lay many other miles and
it is possible that, the decision of
bonding companies will not affect
pavements built inr the rural communi-
ties Of the country. Some dissatis-
faction has been caused in this county
on account of cracked cement pave
ments but no serious breaking up of
these pavements has followed. Sew
eral roads in the county laid with con-
crete in the past ten years have de-
manded repairs which cost the county
a considerable sum Of money. Most
Of these repairs have become neces-
sary after the fve-year guarantee had
expired.
It is expected that the city coun-
Gil will under the ruling of the bond
ing companies seek to have some other
form of pavement used instead of the
concrete pavement.

the magnitude of that now in progress
Officials Of labor organizations in the
meantime pointed out that there had
been "a bushel of injunctions" granted
TO railroads against local strike organ
izations which they asserted had in no
way interfered with the effectiveness
of the strike. The shopmen, according
to the labor views, are not engaged in
unlawful action and cannot be forced
by injunctiors to go back to work.
Members of the senate and house
were slow to comment, but Chairman
Cummins Of the senate interstate com
merce committee said he was one of
those who had been consulted about
the move. He said that in the present
circum stances "any move that will help
keep the railroads in operation has my
approval"

CHICAGO GRA1N MARKET

Chicago, May 2.-Wheat averaged
higher in price today owing chiefly to
persistent buying of May delivery, al
though such buying was confined almost
altogether to a single house. The market
closed unsettled, at the same as yesterdays
finish to 2 IA cents higher, with May
1.43 SIS to 1.43 ga and July l. % 3-8 to
1.28 1-2. Corn closed Is cents off to
shade advance, oats up IA S-S to 1-2
cents and provisions varying from cents
decline to cents advance.
The house which did the bulk of the
buying of May wheat was simultaneously
engaged in selling July This action
caused the price difference between the
two to widen about 1 IL cents a bushel
as compared with yesterday. Persons
who protested to know said that most of
the shorts in May were prepared to deliver
cash wheat on May contracts when the
time arrived and that the only other i'm
portant short interest was on the part of
millers who had their wheat stocks hedg-
ed.
Receipts of wheat in Chicago today
were liberal, 225 carloads. and there
were fresh deliveries of 10000 bushels
on May contracts. No announcement was
made as to how such deliveries would he
disposed of. Shortage of vessels here is
factor. No coal cargoes for are avail
able at present and vessels returning
westward light from eastern ports are
getting better rates at Lake Superior term
inals than at Chicago.
Corn and eats advanced with wheat, but
during the latter dealings something OF
a set back in corn prices took place. do

light and exports bids out of line.

AL LUNDsTRoM, WRESTLER, DIES
AS RESULT OF INJURIES

Local followers of the wrestling game
learned with regret of the death in Wor-
cester on Tuesday morning of ZAP
Lundstrom, claimant of the middleweight
wrestling title of New England. Lund-
strom made Norwich his headquarters
for some time several years ago and
wrestled in this city in many exhibitions.
He was a true lover of clean sports and
his life was conducted along those same
clean lines.
Al was we'll liked in this city and It
was with interest that the local sporting
public has followed his career as he
mounted to the TOP in the sport, He
started his career in Putnam, wrestling
in exhibitions, and then started out to
get matches through the state, and
finally last summer toured New England
with an outdoor carnival, meeting all
corners It is coincidence that as his
first bout was in Putnam his last bout
should be there also. This was last
February, when he met John Catcnlitz of
East Hartford, and in this bout he tore
the ligaments in his shoulder. 1t was
while recovering from this accident that
he met with the accident which resulted
in his death. Lundstrom leaves a
| brother in this city.
