HOG PRICES ARE
ON THE DECLINE
Drop of One Dollar Per Hundred
Pounds Noted-General.
Protest Helps

Chicago, Aug. PA drop of 81 A
hundred pounds on the average for
hogs with lower prices for beef cattle
at the stock yards today was ascribed
to several reasons, including the gen.
eral protest against the high cost Of
living Market men said the tenden-
cy was for still lower hog prices, par
ticularly after the fall marketing, and
they professed to see break in high
living costs. The public has cur
tailed its buying Of pork and beef re-
Gently while live stock receipts are
large. The eastern market failed to
act as an emergency outlet and the
packers virtually withdrew their
buyers from the pens today, leaving
thousands of hogs and cattle without
buyers. Spectators were hit hard.
Live stock men say export business
has been depressed by the foreign ex-
change situation and that. this cou-
pied with receipt Of hogs that accu-
mulated on farms during the railroad
shopmens' strike and the prospect Of
a strong run Of hogs, helped to cause
the weak market.
While the average drop for hogs
was at 81, the difference between to-
days lowest point and yesterdays
highest point was full $3.50, live
stock authorities said, while the av-
erage drop for beef cattle today rang
ed from so to Is cents a hundred
pounds. Sheep also sold lower.

with the names OF the heroes who
saexup their lives, Or were, wounded
in order that a permanent record
may be kept, and that this list be
read on the 18th Of November during
the second celebration. ~
In connection with the first ceIe-
bration and second celebration to be
held 1T should be emphasized that
neither are being put on by the SUM
ter County Chamber Of Commerce, or
b ythe city Of Sumter, but by all !sof
the white citizens Of Sumter county
as a Sumter county affair. The Chaif,-
Der Of Commerce took the lead IN the
first celebration, as it has done this
time for the second celebration, to
organize the citizens to do honor TO
the veterans Of the great world war.
This commercial organization through
it's president, and board Of directors
called the first meeting Of Sumter
county citizens. as It called yesterday
meeting, but it does not claim or pro-
fess that the Chamber Of Commerce
is putting on the second celebration,

This explanation is made in order
that the people of the entire county

Report on Treaty Delayed Two
Weeks BY Decision to Hear
Many Representatives
SENATE DEMOCRATS
ARE GREATLY AROUSED
List of Witnesses Includes Mem
bers of Numerous European
Peoples and American Negro

Washington, Aug. 25.-Extending
the scope of it's public inquiry regard
ing the peace treaty, the Senate for
eign relations committee announced
tonight schedule of hearings that
promise to occupy most of its tlms
TO rthe next two weeks and to lead
into the intricacies of political and
territorial problems in several parts OF
the world.
The disputed questions to be touch
ed upon in the eight-day schedule in
clude the disposition of Fiume, OF
the Aland Islands and of the German
colonies in Africa and the claim Of
Ireland for independence. On the list
of witnesses are representatives OF
the Italians, Jugo-Slavs, Hungarian
Americans, Greeks, Irish, Lithuan-
ians, Ukranians, Esthonians, Let's and
American negroes.
Under the arrangement the time to
be devoted to work on amendments
to the treaty this week will be re-
duced from three days to two, Thurs
day having been set aside to hear the
negro delegation on the question OF
the African colonies.
Chairman Lodge, announcing the
decision, after consultation with 9TH
er members, said the hearings seem
ed essential to an intelligent judgment
en the manifold provisions of the
treaty.
Democratic members, however, who
said there had been an understand
ing that the committee would COM
plete its report to the senate this
week, charged again that the treaty
was being needlessly held up by the
committee majority.
1t was generally agreed that if the
plan were carried out the treaty
probably would not come out Of COM
nittee before the end of next week.
Late today President Wilson drove
to the capitol and conferred with
Senator Swanson, of Virginia, a Dem
ocratic member of the committee, and
it was assumed they discussed the
committee situation and the new turn
of events.
1t was reported that the president
desired to see also Senator Hitchcock,
of Nebraska, the Democratic leader,
butt found he was not in town.

COTTON ']I'.l[, SITUATIONS
President Wanamaker Is Conf
dent That State Will Be Or
ganized With Great Mem
bership

Columbia, Aug 24.-'The people
Of South Carolina are aroused as
they have not been since the days OF
1876 and I feel that the success OF
our campaign for membership is as
sured," declared J. Skottowe Wanna
maker, of st. Matthews, president OF
the South Carolina Cotton Association
here today. The membership drive
begins Tuesday morning in every
county in South Carolina and con-
tinues through Friday.
"The meetings which were held IN
counties all over the State last week.
continued Mr. Wannamaker remind
one forcibly of that year of liberation
for South Carolina The attendance
at these meetings was large and the
enthusiasm manifested was as great
as any friend of the American COT
ton Association could have asked Tor.
The interests of all classes of people
in the cotton belt are involved equal
ly in the success; of the movement TOT
fair price for cotton. The fact that
this movement is not a class move
ment lends it far gretaer influence 1or
the entire section. Were the farm
ers alone organizing to hold their
cotton for higher prices, some per-
sons might suppose their own inter
est would be hurt or would not De
affected at all. But the fact that all
business interests alike are rallylng
into one organization indicates that
the welfare of the cotton States. IS
the objective of the movement ana
the people understand this. Whatever
legitimately benefits the farmer Will
benefit all people of the region alike
'tThe organization Of South Caro-
lima is now certainty. The NUMBER
of members of the cotton association
expected on this State will probably
be expected. This will lend great I'M
pulse to the organization of the other
States which will follow immediate
ly. Plans are already wei under way
for the other States"
Andrew S. Manning, president OF
the Columbia Chamber of Commerce
in calling on the business men OF Co
lunabia to support the organization
TODAY issued this statement:
eThe American Cotton Association
is to be actually big vital factor IN
