Millions OF Rush.Is Sold.

Brokers presumably working for
Armour and his associates, whether
including Gates or not, were taking on
liberal lots of the later option. In
one hour al ne il was estimated that
these brokers had bought more than
5000 900 bushels. This buying CT July
prompted. the frightened shorts to Gov
Ell, they believing the Gates forces
and Armour crowd had combined tt
bull the month at the expense of the
hard hammered May.
Tonight it was estimated that 5,
100000 bushels ct May delivery were
uni AIDED here and at Minneapolis. The
closing quotation was 81, as against
Sl.23 less than six weeks ago.
Gate Crowd Lost Little.
The general opinion tonight ID that
Gates and his friends emerged from
the ba tie with little, If any, actual
financial loss. Gossip insists that the
effected ar alliance with Armour and
other leading tras sers whereby the
Gates party, while obliged TO summar.
lily liquidate May wheat on an erior-
nous scale K day, were nevertheless
fully protected through pr or and con,
current operations Of the allies in both
May and later options. Another view
of the situati n is that the new group
Ing OF spectators. including Gates
himself, has merely cleared the decks
for q still more gigantic c-rner i.
wheat for July delivery.
How Gates Miscalculated.
The Gates party il is sa d, had fig.
ured that the movement of wheat to
market would be practically exhaust
ed before the month Of May arrived
The factor that is alleged to have
caused them to give up the May deai
was the steadiness with which heavy
shipments from the interior continued
this and the disappointing long
drawn cut dullness of the -four de-
rand aud the apparent unconcern Of
the millers.

Traders Were Wild.
Clothing was torn hats smashed and

POINT ISABEL. H44RBOR.

1t was been discovered by the
engineer in charge of the dredging
at Point Isabel that the bottom OF
the harbor is hard enough at a
depth of thirty feet to break the
drill which was being used to test
the bottom and this engineer gives
It as his opinion that the harbor
may be made the finest on the
Texas coast. IN time that entire
section of the State will become one
vast truck farm and Brownsville
will grow into a great entry port
for the products OF the Gulf coast
of Mexico when the Lott Road IS
extended along this same coast to
Tampico. It will then become alb
solutely necessary to have a deep
water port at Point Isabel to handle
the enormous traffic from that great
and rich region. Swift steamers to
carry the vegetables and fruit from
that far off neck of Texas to the
markets of the East will be in such
demand the government will be
compelled to dredge this harbor
until the heaviest ocean liners can
cross its bar and load at ats wharves.
1t is, therefore, gratifying III the
extreme to learn that there Texas
has the foundation for another
great port and future mart of trade.
1t will be i'll still greater demand,
this harbor at Point Isabel, when
that Panama canal is constructed,
for then it will require "a dozen
great harbors on the Texas coast
to accommodate the enormous traf-
fic that must immediately spring
up with the completion of the
canal. In that great day Texas
will have the lion 5 share of the
work of feeding and chothing the
teening millions OF the Orient and
when that time comes every posi-
BILE facility will be utilized to meet
the demands of such tremendous
trade. Although the progress Of
the lower RIO Grande region has
been slow. The Times has always
entertained for that section a SOW
ereign faith and now the rapid run
of events down there, the recogni-
ton of her tremendous possibilities,
has more than justified that faith.
The Times haStens to congratulate
its esteemed friend, THE HERALD,
upon the bright outlook for its sec
