DOMINATE SIOUX CITY.

DOMINATE SIOUX CITY.
On Tuesday Mr.. Heney made the
statement that in his belief the Swifts
dominated the situation in Sioux City.
E. ]. Stason, Sioux City attorney,
representing the Hurni Packing
company before that plant was bought
by the Swifts last year. was called to
the stand by Mr.. Heney. He threw
some light on the situation In the up
river town.
Heney read letters said to have been
written by Louis F. Swift to Sioux
City men, these letters being offered
by counsel to show the connection Of
the packers with various interests in
the city in question.
STARTED AS BUTCHER.
Attorney Stason related that r.
Hurni started in at Sioux City many
years ago as q butcher and eventually
his business grew until he built a
small packing plant, had an ideal To-
cation and bought hogs from wagons
instead OF paying yardage charges
which the stock yards company is
said to have demanded of him.
Witness related that before the tur-
chases of the Hurni plant by the
Swifts the city council Of Sioux City
denied Hurni the privileges of plac-
ing spur track which was eeced
for their business, but as soon ss -'he
Swifts had the plant, he added, the
council granted the spur track priv
ilege.
Compelled to Sell.
'Did the worries of the situq.;on
have anything to do with Hurni
selling to the Swifts!' Heney asked.
"Yes; Hurni practically worked
himself to death. He sold beca, Sc
he realized it was his last opportunity
and that if he did not sell then he
would be compelled to sell later on
and would lose his investment. He
was never able to obtain concessions
from the stock yards company.
The general line Of this testimony
is an effort by Heney to show how
the large packers have been absorb
ing the small or so-called independ-
ant packers in this territory. He Of
Tered letters TO indicate the general
influence of Swifts. Armours and
Cudahys in Sioux City.
Made No Improvements.
Have the Swifts improved the Hurni
plant since they have taken it over?"
he asked of Stason.
Not so anybody could notice it,
was the reply.
"It is generally understood that
Swift will build a plant at Sioux
City,"
'It has been understood So"
Foster Becomes Evasive.
T. II. Foster, vice president and
general manager of Morrell & Co.,
packers at Ottumwa, Ia, caused Coun-
sci Heney to grow a triHe irascible
when witness became eWsive in his
replies.
1T never worries me what tine big
packers do" was the surprising reply
of the witness. Heney looked at/the
Ottumwa man with new interest and
proceeded.
'Why- mott" asked Heney. "It
seems they have swallowed up nearly
every independent packer and you
are the only one left in large terri
tory. Does not your business sagacity
tell you what is happening? Has the
territory from which you naturally
get your hogs been reduced by rea-
hrnntirnad Pare Fnnr. Column One.)

FOE FORCES
ARE BEFORE:
PETR0GRAD.
Occupation Of Russ Capital by
Germans Only Matter Of
Hours; Fear Capitulation
of Moscow.

London, March 20.-Occupation OF
Petrograd by the Germans is only
a matter of hours, according to dis
patches from Petrograd to several Of
the morning newspapers.
The Russian capital is said to be
assuming a waiting attitude and is
not displaying the slightest sign OF
organized resistance. -..
The Germans are reported in a
Reuter- dispatch from Petrograd to
have reached the vicinity of Dno
Station, about $50 miles south OF
Petrograd. y
, The Austro- German advance in
southern Russia continues. The en-
emy has occupied Soumy, FIVE hours
march from Kharkov, the dispatch
says.
Moscow in Danger. q
German possession of Petrograd
would give the enemy complete con-
troll of the Gulf of Finland and all
the important ports on its coast ex-
cept those in Finland yet in the hands
of the Finnish rebels, who are being
attacked by the Germans and Finnish
government forces.
This would cut Moscow off from
the Baltic sea.
The various reports from Russia
also indicate the greatest anxiety over
what appears to be an enveloping
movement the Austro-German forces
are carrying out against Moscow.
There is talk of moving the govern
ment, according to these advices, to
Sarjoff, (probably Saratoff, $50 miles
southeast of Moscow, or to Nizhni
Novgorod (265 miles northeast of
Moscow.
Church Boycotts Peace. y
A Reuters dispatch from Petro-
grad dated March 10 reports the
patriarch of the Russian church to
have sent a message to the orthodox
population declaring that the church
cannot regard as binding peace
which disnembers. the. country and
places it under the domination OF a
conquering foreign power.
In this connection the Communist
is quoted as declaring that the Rus
sion proletariat cannot make, further
concessions, but must be ready to
rise at any moment irrespective OF
its state of preparedness. ...sE-
Other reports from Petrograd state
that the council of peoples comm is
sioners has ordered the arrest ct M.
Bibenko, the commissioner of marine,
for opposition to the ratification of
the peace treaty. Petrograd dis
patches filed March IS reported that
M. Bibenko has been missing several
days.
Russ Friend Of Entente.
Moscow, Tuesday, March 10
Russia's relations with the entente
are unchanged, M. Tchitcherin the
bolsheMk foreign minister, declared in
an interview with the Associated
Press correspondent today.
More friendly relations were beng
established with the United States,
he added, and he commented rpon
President Wilson's message to Russia
as showing that America wouiG not
take aggressive action against il.
Leon Trotzky and other bolshevik
leaders are quoted here as denying
rumors that large numbers of Austro-
German prisoners have been armed
by the bolsheviki at Irkutsk, Chita
and other Siberian cities as well as in
European Russia.
Welcome United States Probe.
The announcement that the United
States is sending mission to investi-
gate the reports of the arming of
prisoners is hailed with enthusiasm
by the government organs.
