POLE RAISING MACHINE fii^oMi Wkh the Services of Sever! Men. Erer since there arose the necesslr. for the use of poles to curry electrh -wires the methods porsned In erectins them hare been about the same. Thd mod as operandi Is something like this: , The hole is dug to the desired depth rOLZ-BAISECO XFPXBJlTUS. mi th? nolo rolled over QDtll the lower end of It orerbaLg* the trench. Then the services of numerous* sturdy men armed with a variety of appliances are called into play and gradually and laboriously the pole Is raised. A pole-raising apparatus is now made for this work, and its chief claim of merit 4 that it dispenses with the services of several of the members of the "gang" formerly required for the work of elevating the stick. These men had little to do except during the actual operation of raising the pole. During ail the time of the preparation of the bole they sat idly around. as there were no means of employing them. This made tbem rather expen Ire employe*, although tbej represent -an Inferior class of labor. According to the American Electrician this ma chine consists of an A-frame, carrying a wooden telescoping beam, together with means for raising and lowering the beam with relation to the frame; in brief, the apparatus is a mechanically-actuated pike pole. Tbs? telescoping pike earrles a sheave at its lower end. but at right angles to the lower one. At the extreme upper end Is the usual spike, flanked by a toothed arm on each side, the function of the arms being, of course, to embrace tbe pole and prevent its slipping off the point of tbe pike. A rope or cable is secured at one end to tbe left-band leg by the A-frame, passes do wo *0LM BZLSQ RAISED BT XACHIXE. around the sheave at tbe lower end of the pike pole, and up over a similar kMT? noar the linnpr end of the richt tend end of the A-frame, whence It joea to a winch or "crab" mounted on the frame. It is obvious that turning the handle of tbe crab in the proper direction will wind op the rope or cable on tbe drum and raise the telescoping pike. Tbe method of usage Is as follows: Tbe rope shown passing over the upper sheave in tbe pike is tied In a loop around the end of tbe pole lying flat on tbe ground, and tbe pole Is raised by the machine until a "deadman" can be got under it. Then the machine Is shifted toward the base and * cow bold is taken, this time by tbe pike and tbe embracing arms. Automatic Lock oa Hudcaff.

The first three paragraphs of the petition are formal and set forth that : the operations of tbe responuema are | conducted In the different States and I Territories of the Union and in the Dis- j trict of Columbia?this presumably for j the purpose of establishing their amen- ' ability to the Federal law. Paragraph four alleges that the respondents control sixty per cent, of the 1 total volnme of trade and commerce in fresh meats in the United States, baring during the year 1901 purchased and slaughtered 4.000.000 cattle. 5.000,000 sheep, and 6.000,000 bogs. In the succeeding paragraphs it is alleged, first, that the respondents hare ; engaged In, and Intend to continue, an unlawful combination and conspiracy nomnatltlnn hr (nttrilCllnff I 11/ A COU *V.b VVU?|^M%IWM ?o . their purchasing agents to refrain from bidding against each other, "except perfunctorily and without good faith." "thus inducing and compelling ! j owners of live stock to part with the same at prices less than they would receive if such bidding were really competitive." Second, that purchasing agents are Instructed to put up prices from time to time, so that the market reports will I show prices much higher than the state j of trade will warrant, thereby Inducing I owners of stock to ahip hurriedly in the delusive hope of benefiting by the apparent advance, the purchasing agents being thus enabled to secure bargains. Third, that secret meetings are held At which prices are arbitrarily agreed upon. and that a "black list" of delinquent*?or dealers who fall to maintain price*?is kept; and that to such delinquents sales are refused. Fourth, that uniform charges for cartage and delivery have been agreed upon, when no such charges are or have been customary. Fifth, that preferential treatment Is secured from railroad companies by means of rebates and other devices. Sixth, that a conspiracy exists among the respondents and between them and the railroads to obtain a monopoly of the supply and distribution of fresh meats in the United States, and ship* sent to foreign countries. The petition goes on to speak of "abnormal arbitrary and unreasonable regulations." affecting the business "from toe snipmem or me ure huvk from the plains to tbe final distribution of tbe meat to tbe consumer." Wherefore, a perpetual injunction U prayed, and an order for the production of books and documents, and such further relief as equity may require. Cum Extraiiv* ud B?flouU. Andorer.
