Hogs

Hog prices rose rapidly in the frs
three days of the week, reaching g
new high record position, on Wednes-
day at $23.15. In the past two days
about 10 cents was taken off, and the
top today was $23.O5. Scant receipts
here have sold at a comparatively
small price range, while at other
markets there was a 81 to $500
spread. The average cost of hogs
here yesterday was $22.Ss and in
Chicago $22.66. Demand remains
large, and receipts are showing a de-
crease. High prices are expected to
continue for some time.
Sheep and Lambs.
Native lambs predominated in this
weeks supply at $14.5O to $17.OO.
One band of more than 1000 Idaho
lambs sold straight at $16.25. and
some yearling ewes brought $17.OC.
Range lambs are quoted at SIG to SIT
feeding lambs $3.50 to $15.25, fat
ewes $3.50 to $3.50, breading ewes
$11.5O to ST. There is a good de-
mand for breeding and feeding grades,
but small supplies limits general
trade.

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS
July 25, 1919.-The rising tendency
in cattle prices that started early in
July continued this week, and a
good many steers this week sold
$3.50 to $3.50 above the low time late
in June. Hog prices reached a new
high level on Wednesday, and today
though about 10 cents under the high
point, were IS to 80 cents higher than
week ago. Sheep and lamb prices
showed no important price change.
Most OF. the offerings were natives.
THIS WEEKS RECEIPTS
Cattle receipts this week were A.
500, about the same as last week, and
1000 less than year ago Calf re-
ceipts though 2,400 less than last
week were the second largest on re-
cord. Hog receipts 3O,7OO were 49,
900 less than last week and 5000
less than a year ago. Sheep receipts
10000 were 5000 larger than last

ago.

TWO MORE WEEKS.

The eleventh week of Henry
Ford's million dollar libel suit
against the Chicago Tribune is
drawing to close. The Chicago
Tribune, which has occupied five
full weeks in presenting it's de-
fense, has not yet rested it's case.
Rebuttal of the evidence and testi-
mony offered by the Tribune is
yet to be offered by Ford counsel.
The summing up by attorneys is
expected to occupy full week. In
dications are, therefore, that the
trial cannot possibly be concluded
short of another two weeks,
which will mean that it will have
occupied three full months be-
fore a verdict is handed down.

ASSAIL LOYALTY
OF HENRY FORD
Chicago Tribune Tries to Show
He Permitted pro-Germans
to Work in Plant.
PLAINTIFF REVEALS FACTS
Shows That 400 Workmen Were
Secret Government Operatives
Who Were Constantly on
Alert for DisIoyaI
Employees.

Mt. Clemens, Mich, July 25.-
Henry Ford, for the first time il
over a week, was absent from the
witness stand when court convened
in the $1,000,000 libel suit which
the manufacturer has brought
against the Chicago Tribune. sTrib-
une counsel branched into a new
avenue of endeavor, charging that
although Mr.. Ford professed to be
assisting the government he kept in
his employ and under his protec-
tion certain men who were opposed
to the interests of the United States.
The principal employe discussed in
this connection was one Karl Embe.
Mr.. Ford on the stand had testified
that he had worked with Embe per-
sonally, had watched him carefully
and had found no reason to doubt
his loyalty. Edwin G. Clemett, as
sistant director of the Ford educa-
tional department, who had previous
ly testified under Ford subpoena, was
called again by Tribune subpoena to
testify to pro-Germanism in the Ford
plant and the efforts made to stamp
it out and prevent injury to the war
work being done for the govern
ment. Mr.. Clemett was a captain
of the American Protective League
operatives in the Ford plant. He
had 400 workmen under his COM
mand who went about their labors
and kept their eyes and ears open
for disloyal acts or words. The
work of these secret operatives re-
suited in confidential reports being
made upon about 500 workers whose
loyalty had come under suspicion. 1t
was part of the agreement with the
government that any man engaged
upon war work could be removed at
the governments suggestion. 1t
was shown in this connection that
no man was so removed although
the government had full access to
all the reports concerning suspected
men. It was the Ford Company's
belief that the safety of the gov
ernment would be better served II
suspected men were changed to jobs
where they could do no damage,
rather than discharged from the
plant and thus allowed to find en-
ployment in other shops where they
were unknown and where destruc-
tive work and seditious talk might
senior counsel for Mr.. Ford, argued
that the presence of a small body
of pro-Germans, 500 suspected men
among 10000, could not possibly re-
fleet on the loyalty of Henry Ford.
Mr.. Ford's personal attitude, he
held, should be gauged by these facts.
That Henry Ford had permitted the
American Protective League to or
ganize and operate in his works.
That he had permitted some of his
important chiefs to become officers
of the organizations. That he had
permitted important employees to act
as investigators of suspected work
men. That he had placed the in
formation thus gained at the dis
posal of the authorities. That he
had contributed money to the support
of the work of the A. P. l.. and that in
addition to the 400 secret opera
tives of the A. P. L. the plant, with
Mr.. Ford's full consent, was con-
stantly under the eye of operatives
of the plant protection section of
the Military Intelligence Bureau of
the War Department

sold up to $15.q5. Calves were high
er than last week, top $1,000.
StOckers and Feeders.
Higher prices for fat cattle increas-
ed demand for feeding steers. Sew
eral punches were sent east at $1400
to $14.75, and a good many at $1,000
to $1375. Lighter weight feeders
brought $1,000 to $3.50 and stocekrs
sold at $3.50 to $12.25. 1t is only a
short time until the big movement Of
stockers and feeders will be under

THIS WEEKS RECEIPTS
Beef Cattle

The movement of grass fat cattle
did not develop as large proportions
as was expected and prices were ad-
vanced so to rs cents, in extreme
cases more. Some native steers at
$18.25 were from the same feed lot as
some that brought SLIPS last week.
Other fed steers brought $3.50 to
SIS, and they were materially higher.
The small part of the advance was in
plain grass steers, while wintered and
caked steers were sharply higher. A
good many Texas caked steers sold al
$3.50 to $1,000, the latter price being
paid for Texas in quarantine division.
"A good many Oregon steers brought
$500, to $3.50 and California steers
$1,000, to $1325. Straight grass fed
steers sold at $1,000 to $3.50, and
Kansas wintered steers up to $16.25.
Cows were higher early in the week,
