Of trade circles. VIII Joseph Letter
make profit on the round 100000
bushels of real wheat which he has
placed in his hands by the provision
man, is now the question.
The report is going the rounds that
the whole affair was productive of re-
suits indicating big Armour-Leiter
combine. In many minds this rumor
was given crcdcnce. The manipulation
of the local market by Letter agents
pulling the wires from the Liverlpol
end was recited over and over. This
idea however, is ridiculed by the ma
jority of traders.
Some members Of the board say that
Letter has secured 100000 bushels Of
the cereal. Others place the figure as
high as 15,0O0000, while the more con-
sarvative are willing to admit that
half the latter amount is nearer the
correct estimate. Mr.. Letter asserts
that just as much of this will go
abroad as the foreign markets call for,
if they pay him his price,
"Some folks on the board think I
can't transport grain eastward by rail
without a loss, do they"" said MIR.
Letter. "Well, possibly they can't, but
I'm willing to play out my end OF the
game along my own lines, and I may
differ with these prophets consider
ably"
The Post prints the following con-
corning the present situation in the
December wheat deal: Dec. 81, set
tling day" on the board of trade, Will
witness the elimination of tile gigantic
Leiter-Armour deadlock. The trade
) will not be surprised then to learn that
Armour will lose q clear 100000 on
the December deal. True, he has per-
formed the marvellous feat Of bring
ing 100000 bushels Of high grade
cash wheat to this city, In defiance
of all settled rules Of commerce, but
that act may result in nothing more
substantial than glory. 1t is growing
belief on change that Mr.. Armour had
to pay dearly for bringing the big vol
ume of wheat to this city, and that his
short selling will cost him about IS or
20 cents @ bushel.
"In July the Letter clique began its
operations in formidable manner by
gCbbling up July wheat at So cents.
The amount in Its possession was
variously estimated at from 100000
to 100000 900 bushels. The price of July
wheat rose to 70 cents, and between 70
cents and 70 cents the Letter clique
sold out It's stock of July and trans
ferrcd n portion Of it to September.
pocketing by the transaction the pre-
MUM which at that time existed be-
tween July and September wheat.
"When September came around the
clique repeated Its bullish ta@tics and
accumulated at 81 cents a vast amount
of September wheat, estimated as high
as II 100000 bushels. 1t was during
this month that the foreign situation
was brought out more boldly. Septem-
Der akyroChetcd in short time up to
30 cents. A large portion of the hold
Ing was transferred to December, with
another handsome premium to put
away, and considerable bulk was sold
outright for a big profit. The present
line of 100000 bushels Of December
wheat which the Letter clique is caring
for, was bought from the elevator
people at from 81 to SO cents bushel.
At one time the clique had an oppor-
tunity to sell this immense holding at
q profit Of nearly 20 cents bushe."

tion Anyway, Whether You Have
Faith in Them Or Not.
All physicians agree that the element OF
faith has "a great deal to do In the cure Of
disease.
Firm belief and confidence in family
ply sician or the same confidence and faith
in patent medicine, have produced re-
markaba cures in all ages.
This is especially, truo In nervous
troubles and no field offers SO prolific q
harvest for the quack and charlatan
as the diseases arising from weak or run
down nervous system.
Nevertheless, most common Of all dis
eases, indigestion and stomach troubles,
which in turn causes nervous diseases,
heart troubles, consumption and loss Of
flesh, requi,cs something besides faith to
cure.
Mere faith will not digest your food for
you, will notglve you an appetite, will not
Increase your flesh and streng hen your
nerves and heart, but Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will do these things, because they
are composed of the elements of digestion,
thoy contain the juices, acids and pep ones
necessary to the digestion and asslmila-
ton Of all wholesome food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
food if placed in n jar Or bottle In water
heated to 9S degrees, and they Will do 1T
much moro effectively when taken into
the stomach after meals whetheryou have
faith that they will or not.
They invigurate the stomach, make pure
blood and strong nerves, in the only way
that nature can DO 1t, and that is, from
plenty of wholesome food well digested.
1t Is not what we eat, but what we digest
that does us good.

The British Squadron VIII Make q
Demonstration at Chee-Foo as
Warning That China Must Not BE Di-
vided Without Consulting England.
London, Dec. ga dispatch from
Berlin says: The Cologne Gazette
maintains the accuracy of its state
ment that the Russian occupation of
Arthur was connected with the
VI there Of the British warship
Dal about a week ago. AS proof
II po Is out that there were neither
Russian ships nor Russian consul at
Port Arthur at the time the Daphne
. visited the harbor. and it argues that
Russia could only have learned of the
visit through Chinas complaint.
The Paris correspondent of the Co.

that a week ago. In spite Of the pro-
tests of the Chinese, the British war.
bhip Daphne entered the inner harbor
1t Port Arthur, allegedly to ascertain
whether there were Russian ships there.

According to special dispatch from
Shanghai the British squadrop will
make demonstration at Che-Foo, on

montory, as a warning. it Is supposed,
That Great Britain intends to oppose
The division Of China without consult
Gg Der. 1t Is reported there that Rus
I'd has offered China a loan to pay
pH the indemnity of the war with
Japan, and It Is believed, says the dis
patch, that japan and England are
lcting in concert to preserve China
from disintegration, favorlng the idea
bf protectorate over central China,
With capital at Marking.
A German Chinese commission has
besh arranged. according to a dis

Wan, south Of Port Arthur, in order to
guard the Gulf of Pe-Chi-Li.
The Daily Mails correspondent at

ferent. 1t is rumored, also, the dis
patch alleges, that a large Russian
