positively that Taft was victor. This

of the election results today by a
great buoyant and enthusiastic adj

and bonds ensued. Participating in the
movement were persons from all parts
of the United States who gave express

by buying Ware houses and commits
sion houses, which have complained for
months that they had no business, said
this evening that they had more orders

Constantinople, June 1.-According
to an official telegram received here
from Athens mail steamer with $50
women and children refugees from the
island of Samos has arrived at Syria,
one of the islands of the Cyclades
group, and reports the continuation OF
serious situation on Samos. The
refugees say that a battalion of Turk.
ish troops recently arrived at Vathy,
capital of the island, and at once com.
menced to fire indiscriminately Many
people were killed or wounded. The
story of the refugees is discredited
here.
The Greek government is urging the
three powers under whose protection
Samos has been since 1S32-France
Great Britain and Russia-to send
warships to the island.
The porte is anxious for settle
ment of the trouble with the least
possible bIoodshed and has instructed
its officials there to act with the great
est moderation. There is little sym
pathy here for the Samians, who are
thought to have brought on the
troubles by their own folly.

Chicago, June Profits of $1,000,
900 each are the result of the clever
operations in corn by James A. Patten
and William H. Bartlett. Patten has
also profits of $55O,O00 in oats. This
does not represent a months work.
They have stood in the gap and tax
en- their chances throughout eight
months of the cleverest and most sue
cessful campaigning in the history OF
the grain trade.
While the congestion in May corn
and oats has been under way there

the common sense, of the word. There
Is difference between a corner and a
squeeze. There has been no time
within thirty days when a buyer could

ket for May delivery or settle with
Patten at the market price, He has

der the May price to make attractive
prices for Eastern consumers.
Never in the history of the board
of trade has it been possible for
sQueeZes to be run in May wheat, corn
and oats and all be successful. This
is what has happened in the past thir.
ty days. The winnings have been
larger on the quantity of grain han.
died than the Oldest man in the grain
trade can remember. Various at.
tempts have been made to run deals
in May corn, but no operator has ever
handled the corn and oats market at
the same time and won out as easy
or with as much profit as James A.
Patten.
Climatic elements are mainly re.
sponsible for success in May corn
They prevented the farmers from de-
livering corn and made it possible to
handle the markets with ease Rain
over the corn belt for the last two
weeks has been worth IL cents pei

corn.
The corn operations have been the
most successful ever run in that ce
real, although there have been others
of larger proportions, but none have
made a profit anything like the pres
ent, nearly 80 cents bushel being Sc
cured on part of the holdings and rs
cents on more than 100000 bushels
The aggregate holdings of corn at the
largest was 100000 bushels, be
tween Patten and Bartlett, and Of
oats Patten alone had 12,0e0,000 bush
els bought for May. More than 5000,
900 bushels have been sold at profit
of 10 cents, SO that the corpse is not
a large one in either corn or oats.

Effective legislation against the
trusts in order that the people may be
protected from monopolists.
Reduction of the tariff in order
that the people may be relieved from

Effective railroad legislation that
the people may be protected from

are actually worth we cannot deter.
mine what they should collect in the
way of transportation rates.
"A reconciliation of the differences
between labor and capital, that these
two important factors in business may
work tremendously together.
"The Democratic party will oppose
Imperialism, which is violating thu
fundamental idea of our government
and Is at the same time increasing our
expense for army and navy.
The Democratic party will ask fol
