G. Flament, until recently surgeon
with the Belgian forces in the Congo

After . battle they gather up their

sIOUx CITY LIVESTOCK MARKET

Sioux City, Dec. Cattle receipts
at the local yards were on the gen.
erous order for a Tuesday, some $50
ears, or $500 head, as against 2,479
a week ago and 1853 the correspond
ing day year ago.
Big end of the days receipts were
in killing grades and with news from
the east bearish, local buyers were
successful in forcing prices to lower
level. Steer values were mostly 10
Q15c down, while the loss on she
stuff was covered by dime.
No great amount of change was
quoted in the stocker and feeder
trade. prices for useful grades of
both steers and female stuff measur-
ing up about steady with the previous
day
Expansion in hog receipts at all
centers resulted in a fresh decline all
along the line. Heavy grades were
favored and ruled about nickel
lower, while light and mixed droves
had to be discounted 10000. Top
for the day was $3.50, while bulk of
sales were at a spread of from $500
Q6.45.
Sheephouse supplies were moder-
ate and further strength developed
on all grades suitable for packers,
sales for the day being quoted dime
higher, while outlet for the small as
sortment of feeding grades showed
no change.

POWER COMPANIES HIT
FOR UNTRUE CLAIMS
IN SEEKING BUSINESS
Speaker at Manufacturers
Meeting Says Edison and
Westinghouse Companies
Exaggerate and Misrep-
resent in Advertisements.

A bitter attack on the Edison Electri,
Company and the Westinghouse Electric
Company was launched by 6. NJ. Ritley
of New York In an address delivered to-
day at the opening session Of conven'
ton OF the American Supply and Ma.
chinery Manufacturers Association, held
at the Believue-Stratford in conjunction
with a similar convention OF the National
supply and Machinery Dealers Associa-
tion.
Mr. Ritley said the Edison Electric
Company has deliberately mlsrepresented
the facts involved in power consumption
IN this country. and especially IN New
York City, pointing out that that COM
pany advertised that more than 800 con-
Germs in New York had removed private
power plants and we're now using power
supplied by the Edison company. lie
inserted Investigation shows that only
1Ol plants have adopted the Edison power
and that the majority OF them merely
used such power as an auxiliary to their
own systems. He also said that TINS
company has advertised that the adoption
OF their power as substitute for private
plants is an economy, knowing that the
statement was false.
Mr.. Ritleys attack on the Westing-
house Electric Company was similar to
that on the Edison company, In that he
accused that concern OF publishing mis-
leading advertisements. leading con-
sumers TO believe that every great build
ing in New York from the Municipal
Building to the battery used Westlng-
house power He asserts that as mat
ter OF fact there are not more than seven
buildings OF any magnitude In that sec
tion that do not have their own plants.
Tho session was brought to close
with an address by Frederick A. Hannah,
consulting engineer from New York.
who spoke on organization for manufac-
turing concerns.
The opening sitting Of the National Sup
ply and Machinery Dealers Association
was the first address by Charles S.
Farquhar, president of that body, who
spoke on business conditions in this
country as they now exist. He as
serted that although war orders had
caused improved conditions In certain
sections, that machinery dealers would
not be upon good business basis until
normal conditions in Europe prevailed.
The second address at this session was
delivered by James Il. Gleason, of New
York, who attacked manufacturers who
issue preferred manufacturing lists"
by which railroad companies. telegraph
companies and locomotive works may OBJ
tain machinery at reduced prices. This
address evoked much comment and a
heated argument lasting more than an
hour ensued.
