LETTERS FAILURE.

Joseph Letter, the young Napoleon

lost. The millions of dollars that he
made, or was reported to have made,
out of the tremendous advances in
wheat last winter are probably all gone,
and with them millions more of his
own and his fathers money. Young
Letter may be spared the chagrin OF
making an assignmant, for Chicago
banks and bankers have come to his
assistance, and his father, it is said,
will also give him aid Just how dis
astrous to Mr., Letter and others tie
blow will prove is not yet fully known.
Letter is known to have been heavy
Spectator not only In the local mar
ket, but in every leading city of this
country and Europe. The general
opinion among local traders is that he
has failed and failed badly.
The tumble in wheat yesterday was
phenomenal, July wheat in Chicago
selling down to rs cents and Septem-
! Der going as low as 692 cents. Some
ten millions bushels or more were sold

appears, brought him to grief, instead
of making him multi.millionaire.
Letters father withdrew his support
and he was unable to put up the re-
CURED margins. The trouble about
us wheat was that he did not part with
