Letter. the Wheat Kina. Here.

Richmond was visited last Friday by
Joseph Letter, the famous young Ma
poleon of the Chicago grain pit, and
while nothing positive is known re-
garding the object of his coming. it is
believed that he came to inspect the
n. 1. & B. road, with a view of bid
ding for it at the next sale. Mr.. Letter
and a party OF six or seven capitalists
spent Friday night at the Glyndon, and
there must have been some big scheme
on hand, for they remained up all
night and received kilograms through
out their stay. The operator was at his
table until day light, and the party left
on the morning train. They visited
Irvine and returned to Chicago Satur-
day.
