Sioux City. Aug. Cattle re-
ceipts were on the light order, both
here and at other leading centers.

velopment of strength in all branches
of trade. Killing grades We're active

fresh advance of a dime al regis

noted in the stocker and feeder
branch. Estimated run of cattle was
900 head. as against STA a week ago
and 1,101 the corresponding day a
year ago.
Increased s~uppliesein the hog de-
partment served to partially check
the upward swing to prices, although
here and there there were spots that
looked a little stronger than on yes

as about steady. Top for the day

highest sale of hogs made on the To-

and gains little throughout the entire
world. Despite the vicissitudes this
ideal will triumph.
while the curve Of German force
has sunk. the curve of the strength of
the allies has risen year by year, and
the entrance of the United States into
the war has given it a sudden and for
midable impetus. Germany's fate is
determined.
"IIenceforth France particularly can
show with elation its balance of the
last three years. Bleeding. still in
vaded, she is not only greater and more
glorious. but she is stronger militarily
and politically than on Aug, ,, 1914. III
Germany, stripped of its hegemony,
ruined in its commerce and reduced TO
an alliance with several groups of ad-
venturers, today compares itself to
France it will show what three years
OF war have cost it."
Joseph Thierry. minister of finance.
said:
ION the third year Of It's entry into
the wal France has the right to assert
that ii has maintained and is main
tanning its financial situation In a shape
that no one would in advance have o n
sidered possible had one been able to
foresee the duration and development
Of the conflict.
"In addition to maintaining a mill
tary effort without pecedent in history
and without analogy in present times,
In addition TO the mobilization OF its
active population In larger proportion
than any other people, in addition to
having submitted and submitting still
to the invasion of parts of its territory,
it has raised its fiscal receipts to a
point which at present constantly ex-
ceeds it's peace time product"
