Swift ascent of corn values and a decided broadening out of activity resulted today from removal of the maximum price limit on the July de livery, and by reason of tbe beginning of business In future contracts based on actual commercial grades, Tha market - closed strong, with May Inactive and unehangei but July $1.571-574. an extreme rise of 7c. compared with tbe minimum price at the outset. Oats finished c to tic dow and provisions on ioc to 20c Jumps in corn prices far outdid tho pre dictions of even sanguine bulls. It had been expected that as high as $1.50 a bushel would be reached by the July option, but right at the opening some transactions took place fully & cents above that level. This waa nearly 30c a bushel higher than July commanded at the corresponding time las year. Reports that rural consignment notices had increased led to a reaction from Initial top prices, but persistent buy ing on . the part of commission houses, specially near the end ot the session, vir tually exhausted the offerings.

ROAD FUND IN DISPUTE FRIENDLY SOT TO BE BROUGHT AGAISST CLACKAMAS COrNTY. Orearon City Objects to Expenditure I'nder Snperriaion of Coanty Court of $14,000 Raised bj Municipality. OREGON CITr, Or., April 11. (Spe cial.) A puzzling problem over the disposition of $14,000 of Oregon City road money, confronts city officials, and if the 1917 road fund statutes are strictly construed the entire amount may have to be spent on one lone street of Oregon City which happens to be a county road. This street is known as Molalla avenue. The matter will come before the Cir cuit Court at an early date. Follow ing a conference of the County Court Wednesday afternoon with District At torney Hedges and George Story and Grant B. Dlmlck, representing the city, it was agreed that a friendly suit be brought by the city at once to see whether or not the County Court has Jurisdiction over the road funds of Ore gon City. The city budget provides 114,000 to be spent in roads and highway main tenance. Under the 1915-17 Legislature, each incorporated city is made a sepa rate road district, and 70 per cent or the funds raised in each district, the aw provides, are to be spent within its boundaries under direction of the County Court. Under opinions from the Attorney-General and local dis trict Attorney's office, this general ruling, is sustained as applicable to towns generally. Oregon City, however, has raised the nolnt of the inapplicability of the law in the local case lor the reason tnai this municipality has a legislative charter. Estacada. too, has raised similar objection. I ME EXTENSION REFUSED Irrigation Company Practically Pnt Out of Business. SALEM. Or.. April 11 (Special.) The State Water Board, at Its semi annual meeting yesterday, denied the application of the Malheur irrigation Company, Ltd., for a two years exien- ion of time for completion of work on its project, and this tmove practically puts the company out of business. State Engineer Lewis said. The application for the extension was fought by the Willow River Land & Irrigation company, wnicn con tended that the other irrigation com pany had forfeited its rights by failure to act, and that the Willow River com pany already has improvements com pleted. George Gompers was namea oy me board as watermaster for Malheur County, and Audry E. Percy for Uma tilla and Morrow counties.
