BY III. Fl. MACK.

For some time past, The Times has
been predicting lower values, before
the close of the year, for all kinds or
live animals, and for the meat product
which they AFFORD. That the entire
market was statistically strong, was
conceded. and that the trade was
more active and the demand more
pressing than usual at this season,
was not denied. In the face Of these
facts, stood the coming OF the season
of low prices, nearly always prevail
ing an a result Of the urgent need OF
money by the farmer to pay rent In
stallments, taxes and other obliga-
tions, which come to maturity In the
fall of the year. Subsequent develop
ments seem to vindicate the strength
OF the position, and a close inspection
of market values will show q depre-
citation In all departments except
sheep. Of from 10 to 20 per cent since
the beginning OF the present month.
In the cattle division, the two ex-
tremes In quality. feeders and prime
steers, are just about holding their
own. All medium grades of killing
cattle are dull and lower and the de-
mand for tidy killeys Is not nearly ~

pressing as 1t was On this date last
month. Mich cows are In active oe-
mand, and values are fully sustained.
Veal calves have lost from 81 To ~
per cwt., and the end Is evidently not
quite yet.
The wild rush OF western sheep and
lambs seems to be about over for the
present, and values are recovering to
some extent For several weeks, fat
sheep have been a drug on the mar.
ket. Now. however. the scene has
changed. and prices look like doing
better In connection with mature
sheep. The lamb situation is q pecu-
liar one, because of the active de-
mand for feeders on one side, and the
low price of mutton on the other.
II quite often happens that the con-
ditions referred to In this connection
are completely reversed, killers TAX

OF an exhausted supply OF western
lambs are making their appearance
and buyers are daily becoming more
pliable. and, evidently, the killing
trade Is OF the opinion that cheap
lambs will be seen no more this year.
Many dealers profess to believe that

Ing for SO and above.
The hog market Is the particular
branch OF the industry that attracts
marked attention from producer, deal
er and the consumer at this season OF
the year. The interest shown arises,
largely, from the widespread convic-
ton. on the part OF the general pub
lie, that prizes will decline with the
dropping OF the leaves OF autumn. Hog
slaughterers are working close to the
shore, because they expect to ultf-
mately secure an adequate supply at
values at least 20 per cent lower than
those which rule the trade al present.
The demand for fresh pork was HARD
ly ever better at this season, and
cured meats are meeting with a sat
isfactory inquiry. The Times can
see nothing but declining hog values
for the next 30 days The demand for
stock hogs, ready for heavy feed. is
extremely pressing.

The financial difficulties OF the R.

the creditors OF the company In a
meeting Friday noon. and 1t is expect
ed that definite plan for continuing
the business under the direction Of
q creditors committee will be reach
ed in this meeting.
For nearly a month past the affairs
Of the company have been under in
spection and an inventory was taken
on behalf Of some OF the Detroit

to tide the company over. II is stat
ed, however, that the inventory was
not sufficiently satisfactory to war
rant such loan and the meeting OF
the creditors Is called to consider fur

creditors will arrange to secure the
necessary funds. The total indebted

The RICH corporation was formed
about a year ago upon the withdrawal
OF r. c. Hupp and some Of his asso-

which has been highly successful.
There was some litigation regarding
the use Of the name Hupp In connec-
tion with the new car, and a com.
promise was finally reached by which
Mr.. Hupp withdrew his claims to the
use of the name. The Hupp enter
prises include factories manufactur-
ing automobile parts and they were
included In the R-C-H corporation
when IL was formed after having built
up q successful business on an indie
