BULL CLTOUE'S SUCCESS.
The Letter Ring Has no Difhculty in Keep
Ing PrOmises.

CHICAGO. December 1S.-Despite the
predictions that this would be a day full
OF surprises on the Board OF Trade the
bull clique. headed by Joseph Letter had
smooth sailing apparently. and seemed
to have proved itself capable of doing
what II promised. IL took the 900 600 or
more bushels Of wheat delivered TO IT
Yesterday. and to-day the delieries
amounted TO l,2500OO bushels more. But
the price held firm. The storm to-day
was predicted because Armour had begun
unloading some of his enormous holdings
yesterday. 1t was feared there would be
a tremendous rush to-day to dump all
the wheat on Change into the lap Of the
syndicate. But the result proved ;His
prophecy wrong
The Journal SAYS: with the go OOo
bushels delivered to-day the Letter crowd
have 100000 bushels Of wheat I'm their
possession. acquired this week How
much more the syndicate has bought long
is not known but ii may be as much as
5000 600 or 100000 bushels. The amount
however. is probably only 100000 or
6.OOO 600 at the outside.
"As December draws 10 n close II grows
more and more probable the Letter clique
meant what II said when II announced
that IL wanted the wheat. and was not
I'm the market for the purpose Of corner
ing" the cereal. II appears now that 10
seph Letter and those with him In this
deal have arranged for all the money they
need 10 pay for the enormous lot Of wheat
that will be delivered 10 them in all proba-
blity."
1t is said that at least $1,000 900 was on
deposit in various banks i'm this CITY 60

Our r financial Independence.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 1S.-In speaking
Of the present situation of the New York
money market. Mr.. Coffin. the actirg
comptroller Of the currency to-day said:
III any one doubts the financial indie
pendence of the United States he should
study the quotations showing current
rates OF interest in New York. London
and others places. II will be found that
the rate for demand loans yesterday in
New York. per cent. was as low as
in any European city and lower than
London. Berlin Hamburg or Amsterdam.
In these centres rates ranged from l-2
to 10 per cent. This fully accounts for
the non-import of gold by the United
States although our heavy exports of cot
ton. corn and wheat have established a
large balance of trade in our favor"
