DEAL CLOSED.
Letters Wheat Transferred to Ar
mour Who Will Control All Lett.
er Holdings.

Chicago. June 15.-Arrangements for
the closing of the Letter wheat deal
have been concluded. Final papers
were placed before Joseph Letter to-day
and 1000 900 bushels of choice wheat
were consigned to P. D. Armour, who
will henceforth control all Letter hold
ings.
Armour has already begun to dispose
of his holdings and unless the coming
crop is harvested sooner than antlcl-
pated. it seems likely that the immense
line of wheat in the northwest will be
consumed there.
It is stated that Letter will not lose
as much as was generally believed, Ar
tours assumption of the burden is said
to have meant at least $2,CO0,OOO for
Letter. That much loss would be incur
red if the immense line Of wheat had to
be merchandised by trustees with the
probability of a declining market. The
loans made to Letter by the local banks
aggregate $7000000 Each bank was
careful to protect itself with wide mar
gains that would insure against loss. In
terviews with number of bankers in
terested show that they are all satisfied
with the transfer of the deal to Armour.
CHICAGO. June Ill u. Letter has
taken charge of all of Joseph Letters af-
fairs and will settle all of his obligat-
lions and collect all of his accounts. This
action removes the last vestige of uncer-
tainty and uneasiness that Joseph Lei
err's creditors might have had and is
unquestionably of great Importance to
the wheat market.
The arrangement effected Tuesday,
whereby P. p. Armour will distribute the
Letter cash wheat in the United States.

WANT THE BONDS.
Propositions 70 Take the Entire Loan
or Any Part of 1t.

Washington, June 15.-If there was
ever any question about the success of
the new three per cent war loan it has
been set at rest by the way in which
subscriptions are already coming in at
the Treasury Department. The assur-
ance of the success of the loan, how
ever. has been made absolutely certain
by two propositions, each coveing the
entire present issue Of 5000, 100000. The
subscription of the National City Bank,
the Central Trust Company and Yer
mylie & Co., made the day the loan was
opened, was for any part Of the total
issue that should not be taken by the
public. Another proposal was formu-
Ia ed the same day, covering the entire
amount. 1t came from j. Pierpont
Morgan and a number Of associates.
