Stockers and Feeders.

Chicago. March S.--Country buyers
stayed indoors until nearly noon yes
terday. the yards being SO dark that
strangers were liable to get lost in the
ALLEYS. There was nothing doing on
local account until the darkness lifted
and then the market was dull. Dealers
had a big supply of steers on hand and
did not take very kindly to the fresh
offerings while the country demand
was a disappointment, too.
Chief inquiry was from Ohio and
other eastern feeders, but they were
skeptical bidders. Bulk of sales We're
1Om15 under the range at the start
this week and sellers quoted some class
es 2b03O cents lower than the high
noint last week. The whole market
was dull and weak, but the late open
ing of operations partly accounted for
the indifference of the demand.
There were few really choice steers
at hand, but buyers were not very keen
bidders for them and the most ready
sellers were good 500 to 900 pound
kinds which could be had under $40.
Medium lots around $500 also met
fair call. but the common little feed
ers down to $3.50 and poor, thin, ligh-
stockers. which dealers offered under
1925. were given small consideration
nv the buyers. Most country lockers
were after steers having good pros
poets. but dealers are not yet willing

Now Probable That Insurance
Companies Will Seek to Re
cover Million
OFFICIALS HOLD a MEETING
Decision Practically Arrived at to
Force the Legislative Agent to Dis
gorge a Million Dollars or Tell What
Became of the Money Which Was
Given Him.

New York, March S.-Andrew Ham
large Insurance companies, who unex-
pectedly returned to this country from
Europe Tuesday, according to reports
given out today, will soon be made
defendant in suits seeking the return
by him of an amount estimated at ST.
100000.
Several conferences between officials
of the New York Life Insurance Com
pany and the company's legal repre-
sentatves were held today, and Hiram
r. Steele 81 member of the New York
Life house-cleaning committee, other
wise known as the Fowler committee,
said that Hamlton's return would
mean the speedy bringing Of suits for
the return OF money spent by Hamil-
ton while he was employed by the New
York Life to watch Legislation and
taxation.
Mr.. Steele was in conversation with
ex-Justice William A. keener, counsel
for the committee. Mr.. Keener and
John G. Milburn, with the regular law
yers of the company, are engaged in
the preparation Of complaints in the
suits against Hamilton.
President Alexander F. Orr, Secre-
tary John c.. Mccall, -Vice-President
Darwin T. Kingsley and other execu-
tive officers of the New York Life, held
a special meeting today, the pur-
pose of which, however, was not dis
closed.
Criticism OF the form Of statement at
present required of insurance compan.
les by state insurance departments was
made today by Joint committee OF
the American Association Of Public
Accountants and the New York State
Society of Certified Public Accountants,
which met in this city.
The committee declared in state
ment chat the form as at present pre-
scrpbed, and as permitted under the
proposed Legislation, was defective. In
that the distinction between ledger and
non-ledger assets involved the assump-
ton that 1t is not necessary for an IN
surance company to record on Its books
any of it's assets and liabilities except
those classified as ledger assets. The
practice is a very dangerous one and
has virtually permitted, II 1t has not
caused. the scandals disclosed by the
recent investigation.
The committee further finds that
under proper system of books and
accounting these practices would have
been very promptly disclosed.

Terre Haute Jury Holds Plays Are
Moral Benefit to Community.

Terre Haute, Ind, March 8. = The
claim by the defense that plays are
morally beneficial to a community, and
that therefore the vocation of theatrical
people comes within the meaning of the
word necessity" as construed by the
courts in making exemption from the
law against the pursuit Of the usual
avocations on Sunday, was successful
yesterday in the case Of the managers
of Terre Haute's three theaters, who
were put on trial for keeping open their
playhouses last Sunday in defiance of
the closing order. The managers were
acquitted, and the authorities say the
Sunday law against places of amuse-
ment where admission is charged ap-
plies only to base ball games.

HITS ELEVATOR TRUST
President Roosevelt and Department
Of Justice Begins Action Against
Another Alleged Monopoly.

Washington, u. c., March S.-Under
has been brought to smash the Otis
elevator trust-a combine which i'm
cludes twenty seven companies and
three individuals engaged in the man
ufacture of freight and passenger ele-
vators.
The announcement that suit already
has been brought under the Sherman
anti trust law came as surprise to
most people in Washington, who did
decided to go after this particular
combine.
The department of justice, however,
has been gathering evidence against
the elevator combine for months and
is now ready to go into court.
The first public intimation of the
suit came in a dispatch from San
Francisco, stating that under orders
of Attorney General Moody suit had
been brought against the Otis Elevator
combine In the United States court for
the Ninth circuit.
The companies named as defendants
comprise the principal elevator COM
panies Of the United States, but the
operations specifically complained Of
have been carried on mainly in Cali
fornia and the states and territories
west Of the Rocky Mountains.
These companies make and sell at
least 80 per cent Of all of the elevators
used in this territory, and they are
charged with having entered into
combination among themselves to con-
troll and enhance the prices at which
elevators are sold. In order to make
the combination effective the Otis Ele-
vator Company has acquired the whole
or a majority interest in the business
es of all the other defendants, al
though the defendants are still being
operated as apparently separate and
independent concerns.
Denounced by Moody.
The attorney general in an official
statement makes these additional
charges:
when an inquiry is received from
customer by any Of the defendants 1t is
ESlSIIco W lllO ollS Iie.
vator Company, and If there is no out
side competition that company desig-
mates the concern which is to get the
business fixes an excessive and ex-
orbitant price to be charged, and d.
reefs the other companies to submit
bids, apparently In good faith, but
higher than the bid of the company
which has been designated to receive
the contract If outside competition
does appear, one of these subsidiary
companies is directed to take the con-
tract at loss in order to freeze out
the competitors.
There are only three elevator COM
panes not In the combination carrying
on business west of the Rocky Noun
tains, and in order to drive these COM
an absolute monopoly. the Otis Ele-
vator Company has instituted suits
against them for the alleged infringe
ment OF it's patents. which suits are
brought solely to harass and njure
them. When one Of these independent
companies secures a contract the Otis
Elevator Company notifies the custom
err that 1t has brought suit against the
independent for infringement, and if
the customer allows the independent
company to carry out the contract he
the customer) will thereby become
liable for damages for said infringe
ment."
