in SEYLER COMPANY
Audit Presented to Railroad Com
mission Today Shows Alleged
Deficit of $1,04O,000.

by Associated Press Leased Wire.)
Madison, Wis.-Defcits amounting to
$1,040,069 are claimed to exist in ac-
counts of the William Seyler Invest
ment company, by an audit submitted
at the hearing before the railroad COM
mission today to determine whether
the permit of the company to sell stock
in Wisconsin should be revoked.
The shortage is shown by the audit
in accounts of the Elbucan Oil COM
pany with an alleged deficit of $326,522
and the M. T. C. company with deficit
said to. be $877, SAT. Over 100000
shares of stock in these companies sold
by the Seyler company at s1.O0 share
are said to be outstanding.
This audit the company attacked as
unfair and made by persons incom-
petent to audit affairs of an oil COM
pany. 1t is claimed that 100000 paid
in commissions had been charged
against single years account when
it should have been spread over ten
years. Certain assets Of the company
claims have been written off the books
when they are tangible and of value.
Many Attend Hearing.
The hearing room Of the state CAPT
toll was filled with persons interested
in the proceedings when the hearing
opened at ten o'clock. Gl
This audit, L. E. GettIe, railroad
commissioner says, shows extensive

suited in losses to the investment con-
Germ. The amount involved is said to
total approximately 100000 and ac-
cording to Mr.. Gettle has placed
the affairs of the company in an I'M
stable condition.
Several thousand investors of this
state have put over $4 100000 into the
stocks Of the two oil companies repre-
scented by the Seyler system, the COM
mission estimates. Promises of II
per cent return on this investment
have not been fulfilled, it says, be-
cause of business losses. The proper
ties of the companies are said to be
valuable and capable Of extensive
development Ts re
Complaint was made against the
Seyler investment system by the Of
ficers Of the Wisconsin Bankers
association and by other organizations
of the state.
Williams Sees asset"
Clifton Williams, attorney for the
Seyler Investment company, at today's
hearing sought to show that auditors
who reported deficits amounting to
$1,O4O,0O0 in the accounts of the con-
Germ had failed to consider tangible
assets amounting to hundreds of
dollars.
Appreciation Of one lease Of the COM
pany was said by Williams to amount
to $4,000 and to have been ignored
completely in the audit, while another
lease valued at $4,000, he said, had
been written off the books as an asset
except for $4,000. Other liens and
leases claimed by the company to have
a value Of 100000 were said to have
gone unconsidered in the audit.
W. D. Tyatt, auditor Of the affairs
of the Seyler company, on the stand,
maintained that the investigation Of
affairs Of the investment concern
which is interested in properties of the
M. T. G. and the Elbucan Oil COM
panies, had been fairly made and show
ed the deficits attributed in the report.
The attorney for the Seyler COM
pany contended that the audit was not
unprecedented.

DEMOCRATS MEET
in LOYAL MOOD
Delegates Chosen for State
Convention at Meeting
Held Saturday.
in PERFECT HARMONY

The county Democratic conference
called for Saturday afternoon met at
the appointed hour, 2 o'clock, at the
county courthouse with everything but
a war-whoop. The old guard was there
with bells on and there was a goodly
sprinkling of young shoots which
showed that the tree was still alive
and full Of sap. Indeed, Calvin
Stewart, who was elected chairman of
the conference, even indicated in his
opening address, that not only was
there life in Wisconsin Democracy but
that there was never so much oppor-
tunity as now for these descendants of
the principles of Thomas Jefferson, to
swing Wisconsin into safe and sane
state, saved from the international
strife of the opposition party.
Make Hay While the Sun Shines.
In other words, the Kenosha Demo
Gratis were exhorted to strike while the
iron was hot and in the midst of the
Republican war to get their innings,
He did not hesitate to apply few un-
hattering remarks to the combatants
in the Republican field, all savouring
of political excitement and suggestive
of the fact that the fall campaign is at
hand and that corn husking would fol-
low hay-making.
"While discord with its flaming
TORCH" commenced Chairman Stewart
Enthusiastically, SIS confusing the
council of the Republican party, and
they are graphing each others threats
in the struggle for supremacy, the time
has come for the peaceful intervention
of the Democratic party in order that
the state may be rescued from being
bloody battlefield aqWhile each side in
the Republican party is applying indie
cent, s1andcrous and truthful epithets
to the other, the people are beginning
to look to the Democratic party to re-
establish peace and harmony in the
state and the return of the old
fashioned Democracy exemplified in
the administration Of Ex-Governor
Peck, the baddest boy but the best
governor we ever had; an administra-
tion when people were not over
burdened with taxes or over-ridden
with boards and commissions. In a
word, people are anxious to get back
to safe, sane and liberal state of
affairs"

general glad-hand affair, had another

TRAFFIC CONTROL.
PLAN IN DETROIT
One Man In Master Tower to Give Sig
mails on FOur-Nlile
Stretch

DETROIT. Mich. Jan 23.-A new
sv~tc1 fer control Of traffic in the con
e ,tad part of Detroit that is said to con
tain 4 pumber of features heretofore I'M
tried. and that viii result in control Of
traffic over a distance of four miles from
a single tower. will be put into operation
here about Feb l, it is announced by
Police Inspector Harry III. jackson.
The plan is an enlargement of the sys-
TEN now in vogue here. 1t provides for
placing a great master tower at Wood
ward and Michigan avenues. BY means
of bells and lights a single officer in this
tower will direct traffic from Detroit
river to a point four miles from the heart
of the business district on Woodward
avenue.
Al vehicular traffic in the congcsted
district Will move or stop i'll unison upon
signal from the master tower The sig
nails will be repeated automatically in
subsidiary towers. two of which are to be
placed at each street intersection. Traf-
fc officers will be relieved of giving sig
mails. under this plan. and will be able to
devote their attention to seeing that traf-
fic laws are obeyed.
The subsidiary towers will be but 10
feet in height and will mark the corners
of safety zones along the car tracks at
each car stop and at other places. Lights
on the subsidiary towers will. it is be-
lieved, meet with popular favor because
they will be more level with the traffic
than at present.
