There have been many new
faces on the corner during the
past two administrations. The
boys who worshipped the EIe-
plant swung the knife in vic
ious manner and heads popped
right and left. There was no
foolin', and they believed in
making changes pronto. Since
the Donkey lads have taken
over the process has been slow
but probably more painful.
Which brings up the ques-
ton: as it more pleasant to
die via the shot gun route or
Just pass away in your sleep?"
The most embarrassed man
IN Hagerstown is member of
the Safety Committee, who, in
deep thought, unconsciously
drove through Stop light.

overcome the whisper of one,
crepe hanger who says business

CIRCUS HORSES
SOLD FOR $4,000
Pair of Draft Animals Brinq
$400 at Auction by
Receivers,

At least $4,000 was laid on the
line yesterday by sportsmen. farmers
and dealers who fought their way
through an unruly crowd of spectators
to bid on 200 horses being auctioned
off by receivers for Col. Tim Mccoy
Wild West Show.
Attorney William H. Collins, one OF
the receivers, expressed qualification
today at the result Of the sale-an
average price of some $l25 for every
horse put up at auction.
The highest price was $500 head
for pair of huge draft horses bought
by a Virginia dairyman while the
lowest was $50. All but two of the
horses had been disposed Of when the
weary auctioner climbed down from
his stand in the gathering dusk.
From 10 am. until dark, he had
been knocking down horses under
trying conditions. The crowd kept
surging forward on the roped-off
arena, and the auctioneer had trouble
making himself heard until portable
simplifying system was installed.
When the original crowd of some
5000 dwindled during the afternoon
the sale progressed more swiftly. Terms
were half of the purchase price in
cash and the balance on delivery. The
purchasers were allowed to leave
horses on the lot until tomorrow
The sale was held in pasture be-
hind the Union Stock Yards on Ben
ming road NV, where the horses have
been stabbed since the show broke up
Other assets of the shoW-harness
equipment, tents, rolling stock, etc
will be sold later.
Mr.. Collins and the other receiver
Edmund M. Toland, expected to file a
financial statement in District Court
later today.

WALLACE TACTICS
Appeal Charges Attempt
to Drive It Out of
Competition.
B? the Associated Press.

b? the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, July Swift & Co.,
in an appeal filed with the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals, today
charged Secretary of Agriculture WAL
lace with attempts to drive it out of
competition.
The allegation was made in the
company's appeal from Secretary WAL
laces order that it cease and desist"
from the "unjustly discriminatory
credit, discount and weight practices.
The company, charged in 10 sepa-
rate counts with violation of the
Packers and Stockyards Act, opposed
the findings as contrary to the evi-
dence presented. The whole pro-
ceeding against the company, the
appeal set forth, was denial of a
full and fair hearing" as required by
the Packers and Stockyard Act.
Secretary Wallace, the appeal stat
ed, permitted a small group of COM
petitors to assist in the prosecution,
and the proceeding was mot in the
public interest, but instead was a pro-
ceeding instituted and conducted for
the sole benefit of small group of
purveyors"
The appeal set forth the effect of
this proceeding was ito aid the busi-
ness interests of the intervening pur-
veyors and an effort to drive Swift
& Co. out Of competition with these
purveyors"
Swift e. Co. was exonerated of
seven of the ten charges, including
those of price discrimination and reci.
procity agreements with steamship
companies. The hearings were held
in New York City from January IL
TO May 26. 1897, after Secretary Wal
lace instituted proceedings September
80, 1886. The cease and desist''
order was filed last June 6.
The appeal asked the Circuit Court
to review and set aside the three re-
manning charges with respect to "un-
justly discriminatory" credit, discount
and weight practices, the last two of
which, the company said, were intro
duced after evidence had been entered
and too late for the company to "ade-
quately prepare its defense or ade-
quately cross-examine witnesses"

OFFICIALS REVISE
TREASURY REPORT
R. F. c., Commodity Credit
and Export Bank Items
Are Excluded.
BY the Associated Press.


The Treasury revised today its daily
statement of budgetary expenditures
to exclude practically all spending by
the Reconstruction Finance Corp, the
Commodity Credit Corp. and the Ex-
port-Import Bank.
Formerly the difference between re-
ceipts and disbursements of these
agencies was charged against bud
eetary expenditures. Last year bud
getary expenditures totaled $4,000, 900
higher because of this practice.
Instead of borrowing from the Treas
ury as in the past, the R. F. c. and
Commodity Credit will generally
finance themselves by selling obliga-
tions to the public. The Export I'M
port Bank generally does its financial
business with the R. F. C.
An official Treasury memorandum
explained;
THE purpose of this change is to
simplify the daily Treasury statement
and to eliminate confusion and misun-
derstanding concerning the effect of
suchm corporations transactions on
the Federal budget, particularly in
cases where the Treasury acts only in
the nature of depository of funds de-
rived by the corporations from the sale
of their own obligations on the mar
ket."
On commodity credit. the budget
hereafter will show only an annual
amount appropriated by Congress to
reimburse the agency for losses, and
in the case of the R. F. C. the budget
will show only money donated without
expectation of return to another Fed
eral agency.
Other spending of these agencies
will be shown separately on another
page of the daily statement.
Another change in the daily state
ment will show in ounces, as we'll as
dollars, the amount of gold and silver
owned by the Treasury.
