PATTEN STILL THE PUZZLE

ber Corn is Question of
Grain Men.

There was no activity about the offices
of Omaha grain firms Monday. No trade
news of any kind came and there seemed
TO be no curb trading at any of the mar
kets A few traders were about the grain
exchange to see II they could get any
pointers from Chicago on the situation in
September corn. The question which causes
them some trouble is whether -Patten still
has his big holdings of September, or
whether he has sold them to New York.
Some expressed the opinion that wheat
would be down Tuesday, as big receipts are
expected at Minneapolis and Kansas City.
