Sioux City, Jan. 25.-Release for
killing cattle showed ~neveness with
changes again in the way of added
strength on the kinds that came in
for competition of shippers, while
stocker and feeder demand was rath-
er quiet with prices about steady.
Run at hand was estimated at 2.2OO,
as against 2,5S1 a week ago and l.
800 the corresponding day a year
ago.
Heavy receipts of hogs at eastern
market centers resulted in more or
less weakness at all market Centers
today. Locally the deal worked out
on a 5 a Toe lower basis than yester-
day. Tops landed at $16.1O. while
the bulk of sales ranged from $3.50
a 16.05.
Strong market was had for all
classes of live mutton. Supply at

REPLIES TO PRESIDENT
Oregon Senator Takes Floor as Thous.
ands cIamor for Admission To
Senate Galleries.

Washington, Jan. rs. - Senator
Chamberlain. chairman of the mill
tary committee arose to a question Of
personal privilege in the Senate
Thursday, and replied TO President
Wilson's recent statement charging
that the senator, In a speech in New
York advocating government war re-
organization and declaring inefficien-
cy existed in all branches of the gov.
eminent, had made IAN astonishing
and absolutely unjustifiable distortion
OF the truth"
On Question OF Personal Privilege.
Six thousand persons clamored for
admittance to Senate galleries, which
hold fewer than 1000. Not since the
Presidents war declaration message
has there been such excitement at the
capitol as developed.
Senator Chamberlain took the floor
on question of personal privilege.
He decided on this course because of
repeated threats OF administration
leaders to prevent his speech.
Senator Chamberlain repeated the
statement which drew the Presidents
fire. and declared the President him
self does MOI know the truth.
Blame for Deaths in Camps.
Senator Chamberlain said ne would
show that the deaths of the hundreds
and thousands OF men at captonments
and camps were due to the Val de-
partment and that all epidemics
could have been prevented If the War
department had been effective"
In beginning his address Senator
Chamberlain said the President had
attacked both his veracity and integ-
rity. heretofore unchallenged. but that
In replying he did so without any per-
sonal feeling against the President.

EMBARGO IN EAST
Garfield Submits Urgent Request
to MCAdOo.
fuel Administrator Looks For Over.
whelming Flood of Traffic-Deep
Shows Hinder Operation.

Washington, Jan. 24.-TAe fuel ad-
ministration has submitted to DireC-
tor General McAdoo urgent recon-
mendations that an embargo be de-
clGred for a few days on acceptance
by the railroads OF any freight ex-
cept coal and food.
This action is imperative, Admins,
traitor Garfield said, to assure abso-
Lutte movement of fuel during the bal
ance of the week when the general
transportation system east of the
Mississippi threatens to become
worse daily owing to the prolonged
strain on railroads OF deep SHOWS and
intensely cold weather.
Tae five-day period of industrial
suspension ended and with the re-
sumption of manufacturing railroad
officials look for a new food of trait
fic which the railroads cannot handle
until normal weather is restored.
Director General McAdoo was not
inclined to look with favor on the
embargo proposal. He held that UNI
der government operation and conse.
quent pooling of facilities and short
haul routine tle railroads would be
able to clear all freight offered for
transportation without priority and
without embargoes.
Weather Still Problem.
The necessity for some new method
of dealing with the coal ]transporta-
ton problem was emphasized by
scores OF reports that weather condi-
tons we're as bad or worse than at
any time since tie unprecedented Pc
riod of cold and stormy weather
started nearly two weeks ago. Heavy
snow throughout New York. in New
England, In Pennsylvania, West Vir-
ginla, and elsewhere, made traffic
movement extremely slow and cut the
supply OF empty cars to mines far
below ven the sub-normal supply of
the last few days.
The bright phase of the situation
was a report of DR.. Garfield that ships
were being bunkered more rapidly
tlan last week and that coal was go
ing In sufficient quantities to domes-
tic consumers. These were the main
purposes of the Industrial curtailment
order OF five days ago. DR.. Garfield
said.

People report incredible results
from pure Lavoptik eye wash. A girl
with weak, strained eyes was helped
by one application. Her mother
could not sew or read because of eye
pains. In one week her trouble was
gone. A small bottle of Lavoptik is
