the proper conduct of food and its dis
tributon."
A poultry dealer Of Washington ST.

that on Saturday he could put a large
supply Of fresh killed poultry in the

to pay three or four commissions. He
buys in carload lots and will sell at a

"If the American woollcn mills will
this year take si0,000,000 worth OF
raw Uruguayan wool" Mr.. Richling
avs, they can send back from ono
third to one-half in manufactured
form. This also applies to hides.
"Thc present complication IN Con
tinental Europe will permit an impor-
tant amount Of the wool crop Of Uru-
quay to be exported TO the United
States at convenient prices for Amer
lean mills. The extraordinary oppor-
tuaity TO acquire good foothold IN
Uruguay which is offered to-day TO
American importers of wool should
not be neglected. The best results will
be obtained by sending responsible
representatives to Montevideo. The
time lost aud the expenses incurred
VII be easily offset by the great bene-
TITS derived from the trip
Uruguay has 26.000,000 sheep, which
yield about l50OOO,OOO pounds of wool
yearly. All of this practically is ex-
ported, as the country has no woollen
mills. The value Of this crop is APP
proxmstcly s25,O00,000, Of which the
United States last year took only 81
100000. the remainder going to Europe

and caustic soda TO that country. Here
tofore most of these things have come
from Germany. The manufacturers are
sending these goods to be paid for on

NEW YORK, March 12.-orders
closing The two big New York depart
ment stores operated by Henry Siegel
and his partners were issued TO-DAY
by the Federal Court. Judge HQggn
directed that the receivers, appeinteu
December 30, when the Siegel enter
prises went into bankruptcy. receive
bids up to March 81 for the stock ana
assets of these stores.
The Fourteenth street store and tho
Simpson Crawford store, among inc
largest in the city, were the ones al
fected by the court order. When the
receivership began they were aHoWeu
TO remain open, and offers were mace
TO reorganize them without interrupt
ing business in the hope that the
! creditors would reap the best advan-
tage by this method.
The orders were granted today Ipoff7
| application of the receivers and cred
| itors.
What the district attorneys office
| described as material for at least
fifty indictments" alleging fraud
against Siegel and Vogel. who were
arrested yesterday on three indict-
ments and are now at liberty under
| $250 900 bail each, was placed in the
Assistant District Attorney Arthur
! C. Train said that as many indict~
ments as the ends of Justice seemed
| to require would be found against
! the merchant bankers.
| The indictments already found
charge violation of the banking laws
and grand larceny in making false
statements to obtain credit. The
| grand larceny indictment is based on
w pf FnTrfppnfh
street store of this city and the Henry
| Siegel & Company private bank, con-
| Quoted in connection with 1t. The af-
fairs of the Fourteenth street store"
/ Said Mr.. Train, ''are typical of the
| affairs of other Siegel enterprises"
Conviction on the Indictment charg-
| ing violation of the banking laws, in
that Siegel and Vogel accepted de-
I posits when they knew the bank to
he insolvent is punishable with a
! term of from one to five years inn
| prisonment and fine of $4,000. For
the grand larceny charge the men
may be sentenced to ten years In
prison and fined $4,000.
District Attorney Whitman said that
statements of two secretaries en-
ployed by Siegel were the basis of the
grand larceny indictment. These sec
retaries testified that false statements
were prepared for merchants and
bankers: that liabilities were turned
into assets, and that approximately
| $780, 900 of money deposited in the
Siegel private bank was placed into
the retail business while it was losing
/ money.
Additional indictments alleging that
| the two men accepted deposits when
they knew the bank to be insolvent
may be based upon testimony of in
dvidual depositors. Every deposit ac-
cepted by the bank for a period OF
over q year. it Is claimed, can be
made the basis Of a separate indict-
ment.

Steepleiack Climbs High
Flagpole and Attracts a
Big Crowd in Market St

Many persons passing along Mar
ket street today were interested in
the work of a steeple-jack painting
the fiag-poles on the roof of the BAN
berger building. The worker was AL
bert Saunders, of Irvington, who re-
Gently painted the pole on top of the
Prudential building. He has also
painted the Firemen's building pole,
other fiag-poles on the Court House
and others in Newark.
Saunders was very much amused
shortly after noon today to see a man
craning his neck to watch the flag
pole painting. The man was standing
very close to the car track at Mar
llet and Washington streets and got
bumped by the tail end of a Central
line car as it rounded the corner.
Saunders was moved to remark that
1t was sometimes safer on top of a
high pole than on the ground.
The Bamberger pole is about thir-
ty feet in height and about >275 feet
above the ground.
