petition With South American Re.
publie-lmported Article. Of inferior
ouaIity-cudahy Says Business IL
Improving. =

Sioux City, April S.-The importa-
ton Of Argentina beef has cheapened
the price to the consumer without at
fecting the packers in any way. accord
ing to a statement made by E. A.
Cudahy. ST.. president and general
manager of the Cudahy Packing Com
pany, who was in Sioux City yester-
day on trip Of inspection.
Mr.. Cudahy departed for Omaha,
Kansas City and southern points be-
fore returning to Chicago. He stated
that NO Improvements would be made
on the Sioux City plant in the neal
future and that his trip was purely one
of inspection.
clared, OF Argentina beef importation
was the lowering of the price of beef,
especially in the larger centers OF pop
ulation in the east. That greater
reduction in price could be expected
was also asserted. owing to the en-
larging OF the market for the infer
ior grade Of imported beef.
While the prices have been lowered
that it in no way affected the packers
who are in the position of iobbers in
the beef trade and if any one was af-
fected unfavorably by the influx of for
eign beet it would be the stock raiser
and feeder.
Imported Article inferior.
While the east is beginning to con-
snn,e large quantities Of the Argentina
product, which will be necessary to
force down the price in the west. the
market for American beef still will re-
main at higher price owing to the
inferior quality of the imported arti-
Gle which is grass fed beef and In no
way equal to the American product,
Mr.. Cudahy declared.
In regard to hog receipts Mr. Cudahy
declared that he believed they were at
their lowest ebb owing to the wave Of
cholera that swept the country last
fall and winter, but he expressed the
belief that within three or four months
the receipts would again attain a nor
NAL condition.
Altho declaring that business was
dull over the country. Mr.. Cudahy
would venture to give no cause for the
condition. He did say. however. the
situation was beginning to improve
and money would be cheaper.
The Cudahy company has no direct
connection with the Argentina market,
Mr.. Cudahy declared, but it does act
rs agent for the Importation of beef
from that country. One OF the large
firms OF packers represented in Sioux
City has packing plant in. Argentina
and handles the importation of beef
direct. but the Cudahy company has
not adopted that policy. he said.
