So 1000, 900.
J. Ogden Armour has been caught il
the wheat market in Chicago for milliOni
of dollars Amid scenes OF excitement
not witnessed before in years, the mar
ket Wednesday broke from the control o.
the former wheat king. and despite his
agents every effort, rose two cents, and
that in the face of load oil a million
bushels thrown on the market by Armour
in an effort to break the price and stem
the rise. The price rose from 40 TO 81.
Conservative members OF the Board Oi
Trade estimate Armour's losses at a fig
ure considerably above the S2,000,OOO
mark. lie stands TO lose, it is declared,
az nigh as eight cents on every bushel OF
September wheat of the tremendous line

No explanation is offered for the sud-
den and almost unprecedented advance
in wheat prices.
Through his lieutenants Wednesday
Armour, perceiviDg his inability longer
to restrain the rise by ordinary methods,
tried with one desperate move to break
the rise.
p. Valentine, Armour's representa-
tive on the Board Of Trade, entered the
wheat pit and threw upon the market
900, 900 bushels. In spite OF the heavy
load the market rose Immediately more
than two cents, so eagerly was the cereal
snatched up.
Armour is not the only big Spectator
caught short by the upward leap OF
grain prices Dozens Of large spectators
and hundred OF smaller fry are regretting

ton OF the 2, 100000 bushels OF contract

is all there is in Chicago.
The harvest OF the winter wheat can
not be marketed in time to meet the con-
