SIOUX CITY LIVE STOCK MARKET

Sioux City, June 19.-Cattle sup
ply around the market map this
morning looked fairly generous, with
the east drawing the big end OF sup
plies. Locally the d was estimated
at 5000 head, about equally divided
as to killing and stocker and feeder
grades.
Steady to a dime lower governed
the market for beef grades with the
decline falling on the inbetween
grades and the stuff showing grass,
or it was a readjustment to summer
basis. Stocker demand was dull and
prices were forced sharply lower
again. Cause for the break was
|traceable to the big hold over by
dealers. and the fact that fresh sup
plies were of fair volume.
About a nickel was tackled on the
average for hogs today. Tops landed
at $685., while the bulk of sales
ranged from $500 1920.
Live mutton trade developed
weakness in line with bearish advices
from outside centers, break of 104
csc being quoted as compared with
the close of last week.

The British big guns soon began to
break their silence, not in the form of
barrage fire, but in counter battery
work. Meantime, the tanks rolled on
over what was virtually a virgin bat
tlefeld
For weeks the process of concen-
trating men and guns for this graAt
attack had been going on, mad so
carefully had it been done that com
paratively few officers in the British
army knew what was transpiring. 1t
was a startling move on the part of
Field Marshal Maig to open battle so
qunickly on a quiet part of the line,
far removed from the cockpit of Eu-
rope around Ypres. For many raotnhs
there had been nothing more than an
occasional raid with now and then a
furry of artillery fire in the Cam
brai sector.
The correspondent reached point
near the British line a little after S
a. M. At that hour there was very
little artillery work on either side.
Machine guns occasionally broke out
with their staccato bark as sentries
on one side or the other thought they
saw a head over a trench top. Then
came a period Of absolute stiffness.
Suddenly the long line of British tanks
moved forward and in a moment the
variegated signal lights of the Ger
mans shot high in the air. The Brit
ish troops came out of their shelters
and with fixed bayonets and grenades
followed the tanks swiftly toward the
enemy barriers
The ground was firm and covered
with long grass. There were few big
shell holes, such as are to be seen
in FLANDERS, for comparatively little
artillery work had been done against
this sector. 1t was ideal going for
the big land monitors and they made
the most Of it.

Tanks Won Great Victory For
British In Yesterdays Fight
One of the Most Astonishing Achievements of the WarPon
derous Iron Motor Machines Smash Way Through
Hndenberg Line.

BRITISH ARMY HEADQUARTERS,
in France, Nov 21-The redoubtable
Hindenburg line in the Cambria sector
was broken in many places by the
great force of the British tanks, and
early today the infantry, which fol-
LEVIED through the gaps, were still bat
Ting their way forward.
The surprise attack was launched at
dawn over a wide front. In the first
few hours its progress was marked
with evident success.
The resistance offered by the dazen
Germans was negligible and by noon
,of Wednesday, British pioneers were
already at work laying roads aero IS
the old first line trenches, while
prisoners In consider numbers
had begun to come back from various
directions. Great numbers of German
dead lie before the main Hindenburg
trench, where the bewildered enemy
taken unawares, made half-hearted
attempt to stem the unrushing Brit
ish legions.
The battle was an innovation tor
the western front, for it was begun
without any preliminary artillery
work Upon the army tanks rested
the responsibility for victory or de-
feat, and they fulfilled all expecta-
tons The oron giants went through
the tremendous line of barbed wire
entan glements in front of the main
Hindenburg positions and on over the
trenches as though they were on pa
rade.
The tanks started forward at $40
. o'clock, and by 1870 the British in
fantry. which had swarmed into the
holes made by the mighty engines,
was engaging the enemy in open
fighting along the Hindenburg sup
port line back of the main defenses
at many points.
The dismay of the Germans was
blazed across the sky as clearly in
this unforbettable whirlwind of pyro-
technics as though their higher COM
mand had announced its officially.
Their guns came into action first one,
the, half a dozen, then scores, but
their fire was weak. They were not
prepared for such an eventually or
fbev would have shown it in their ar
tllery work.
