Washington Former 1'nlted States
Senator William M Stewart of Ne

years, altogether, he represented Ne

a continuous service record from MM

Senator Stewart made many not

Mr. Stewart was the living lncar

count, as well as on account of his
kindly disposition, he nppealed strong

Probably no more picturesque or rug

Mr. Stewurt was a native of New

CORNER IN WHEAT
HAS BEEN BROKEN
Break in Market Follows Desertion
of Leader, and Many Fortunes
Have Been Wiped Out.
Mad Scene In Grain Pit When Di
co very ia Made of Pattan'a Unex
pected Vacation. Red Letter
Day in History of Chicago
Board of Trade.
Chicago. James A. Patten, the
wheat king, has apparently abandoned
the fight, and has sought the seclu
sion of a ranch In Colorado, twenty
five miles from a railroad, declining
to be Interviewed on the probable
outcome of the remarkable corner of
May and July wheat simply declaring
that "It Is vactlon time; I have plenty
of money, have earned a rest, -nj
now I am golng.to. .taka-i,,"
When--rn- Trinidad,' Colo., on
Thursday, prior to his departure for
the ranch of W. H. Bartlett, his part
ner. Patten said: "There is a short
age of wb. at and that accounts fot
the high price. I have not manipu
lated the market; simply bought
wheat and contracts to deliver wheat.
Just like steel makers buy raw Iron.
Why not? I bought wheat; yes, all 1
could get, and when It waB cheap. We
sold when the price went up. '1 hat's
all."
But Patten's disappearance from
Chicago has been taken by many to
mean that he realizes that he has met
defeat.
Thirty million bushels of wheat, at
a low estimate, were dumped Into the
pit on the Chicago board of trade
within the space of a few short hours
Thursday.
From the tap of the opening gong
until the bell clanged the closing of
the most sensational day's trading
ever experienced on the board, the
bears were in full control of the mar
ket. The price of wheat, carried along In
a maelstrom, broke with almost In
credible rapidity. Fortunes were
swept away In minutes.
The pit was a howling, fighting
mass of men who looked and acted
as If they suddenly had been bereft
of all reason.
Sell! Sell! Sell! This was the or
der of the day. And for every seller
amongst that mob of screaming, tear
ing, pushing, money-mad men, there
was a buyer.
Thursday, April 22, 1909. will go
down In the history of the Chicago
hoard of trade as a red letter day.
Wheat for the May delivery broke from
$1.24 at the opening of the day's
trading to $1.20 at the close.
Wheat for the July delivery broke
from $1.1.'! ', at the opening to $1.09.
Wheat for the September delivery
broke from $1.05, at the opening to
1.01.
The losses that were sustained dur
ing these hours of wildly excited
trading are known only to the meu
who were on the wrong Bide of the
wheat market. But they amounted to
millions of dollars. It seemed as
I hough the psychological moment had
cojne for action for a break In the
prices of wheat. The manipulations
of the "king of the wheat pit," James
A. Patten, had put the prices of May
and July wheat to a higher level than
they had been In many years.
At tho close of the nerve-racking
flay, George W. Patten, the office man
ager of the firm, and In the absence
of his brother, "Jim," the field gen
eral In command, figured up the slips
that were handed to him by a weary,
bruised corps of traders and calmly
announced that his firm had bougbt
more wheat than It had sold during
the turmoil.
This statement le not believed by
many, the charge being made that
Patten has taken his profits. Others
declared the wheat king Is hopelessly
ruined.
