PLENTY OF WOOL,
BUT NOBODY IS
ANXIOUS TO BUY
Big Drop in Prices is Pre-
dioted; Last Years Prices
Ranged sgOm Forty to
Sixty Cents Pound.

According to the livestock
agents of the railroads the flock
masters of western Nebraska, Col
orado and Wyoming are all up in
the air over the wool situation of
the future. In previous years,
early in January the sheep raising
area west Of The Missouri river
has been overrun with buyers bid
ding for the wool clip. So far
this year not a buyer has appeared
upon the scene and not a bid Tor
the clip OF this year has been made.
That wool this year is going TO
be cheaper than last is admitted
BY the flockmasters' but they are
at a loss to know what prices are
going to be offered.
War Doubled Prices
Under normal conditions prior
to the war, the western clip sold at
around 10 cents to 20 cents a pound
and "a cents was considered fabu-
lous price. Last year, owing to the
abnormal demand, prices went to 40
and SIS cents, some of the
flockmasters obtaining as high as
sixty cents
At the abnormally high prices,
men who run large flocks of sheep
grew rich and the high prices paid
for wool and mutton had a ten
deney to induce the flockmasters
to increase their flocks to the
maximum Now they find them-
selves with more sheep than ever
before. with indications that per-
haps there will be a pronounced
slump in the demand for wool.
Mutton Prices Still High
Mutton prices continue high,
prices on the Omaha market rang
ing from $40 to $l6 per 100 pounds,
though this is 4 decline of cou-
pie of dollars or so within the last
sixty days.
In the west, it is said, that many
of the flockmasters and feeders
are looking for big decline in
prices in the not very far distant
future.
From western Nebraska.
through to the mountains, it IS
said that the number of sheep is
fully Is per cent greater than three
years ago and consequently the
wool clip promises to be cores
pondingly increased, regardless Of
whether prices remain at the high
figures or decline.

Mr.. Ringer announced that he
will also investigate charges that
DR.. c. c, Tomlinson arranged for
private office treatment of women
whom he examined at the police
station and who were not required
to go to the Women's Detention
hospital, despite the fact they we're
diseased.
Doctor Within Rights
The superintendent of police is
not inclined to believe that DR..
Tomlinson went beyond the UNDER
standing he had when engaged by
the city for his present work.
II know of case of the doctor
being called out about or 2 o'clock
one morning to go to the police
station at the request of an attorney
who was anxious to get woman
out of Jail. This woman was found
not to have been in the class which
would have required sending her to
the detention hospital and in that
instance the doctor rightfully
charged for his services which was
understood before he made the call,
explained Mr.. Ringer.
Want Further Evidence
The chief Of police, however, has
been directed to make a thorough
investigation of all of the matters
complained of in connection with
the recent disclosures made through
The Bee. Mr.. Ringer and the chief
are DESTROYS of obtaining evidence
from any who is able to throw any
light on the situation, and they want
facts rather than mere rumors.
Wilma Rice, who is an educated
woman and who was a nurse before
she fell from grace, stated in an in
terview which was printed yester-
day, that she was willing to give 70
The Bee or to Mr.. Ringer
the names of five policemen
tb whom she has paid pro-
lection money. She also alleged
that some of the police surgeons
have passed the women for money
consideration when these women
should have been committed to the
detention hospital for treatment on
account of social diseases. She
also claims to have knowledge OIL
specific instances.
Superintendent Ringer still main.
tains that criticism of the treatment
of women in the detention hospital
is not founded on facts. Only this
morning." he said, II had a tele-
phone call from a woman who
