SPLENDID TIME
CURT TELEGRAM
RECEIVED FROM
GHICAGO BROKERS
Chicago Bond House Buy . They Will
Hold City to Original Contract De
mand Immediate Compliance With
Their Tonus.
.folm Nuveen & Co., ban ken; of Chi-1
eugo, who contracted for the Medford
water bond issue of $;iG5,00(, for which
the firm received a commission of $1M,-
IMI0, threaten to withdraw tho offer
for the bonds, nnd substitute a damage
suit unless tho city agrees to its terms
md pnvs nccrued interest from tho date
of the bond Issue, regnrdless of when
the money is received by tho city. The
ty council has called tho bond buyers
bluff, will Htand pat and refuso to pay
interest for money that will not bo re-
eived for n year yet. A crisis exists
that, may result in prolonged litigation
and hamper the construction of tho
new grnvily water system.
Roam os Is Authorized.
Without holding a formal Hession
Thursday morning tho city council di
rected A, K. Retimes, attorney for the
ity in connection with tho bond Issue,
to notify John Nuveen & Company, bond
brokers, that tin) city would not. pay
auv part of tho accrued interest on the
bond before tho duto of delivery, as thoy
have been asked to do by tho bond
house. A lengthy telegram received on
Thursday morning from the brokers sot
forth tho fact, that tho city would be
held to tiie original contract, but that
the bond house would pay one-half of
any interest accruing on tho money
advanced after tho city had paid inter
est of the first. $50,000 recoived and the
$20,0(10 of the gravity system bonds
which the company has been urging
the city to sign nnd return to them.
Tlio city by their action this morning
deelined.to pay any of this money, and
a lawsuit will probably result.
Tho City's PoBltion.
The city claims that under the terms
of its advertisement for bids, Interest
does not accrue until the bonds are
delivered, which was to be as money
was needed. A contract was signed by
Mayor Roddy and Recorder Collins with
the bonding house, "under instructions
from the council, which says nothing
about the nccrued interest. Upon this
contract Nuveen & Company base their
claim for the accrued interest. The
city's attorneys hold thnt the contruct
is not valid, as it was not authorized
by ordinance, as the charter requires all
contracts to be made by ordinance. In
other words, Nuveen & Company have
no contract with tho city, and it is up
to them' to comply strictly with Iho
terms of the advertisement, under which
they bid for the bonds.
What is uemanaea.
Nuveen & Company aro demanding
interest on money that they have never
furnished nnd will not bo called npim
lo furnish for n year. They are necking
lo get at least. $7f00 out of tho city over
nnd nbnvo the commission nt ls,ooo
(lie city agreed to pay them, mulling nt ;
least 5,r.(IO directly out of the inni
issue from Medford. In addition, 'key;
aro selling the lionds nliovn par.
On Hie 4'Wl"n advanced, mere is a
lifferencn nf over Son, which the city
claims t lie bond house is owing .Men-
ford. The bond house claims tins as
accrued interest, but has offered to
compromise and pay the city half of it,
which offer has been refused.
City Issues Ultimatum.
The city has issued an ultimatum to
the bonding house refusing to send any
more bonds, except upon payment of
principal and accrued interest, less coin-
mission. Nuveen 4 Company have re-
jected the proposal, and threaten suit
for damages and withdrawal of jr.-
osil'mo for purchase of lionds. In reply
to this llircnt, the city has repented its
ultimatum upon the advice of Attorney
A. E. lienmes, and it in now up to Nu-
veen Co. to make good their threats.
