ITO Pull WHEAT DOWN TO 81
Bears Declare Prevailing Prices Are
False, but Opponents Are Con-
fident of Sl.25.

Chicago, March 3.-Upon the shout
ders of J. ogden Armour will fall the
Herculean task of graphing with
James "A. Patten, acknowledged
wheat king" of the world, in an at
tempt to overthrow this czar of the
pit and pull wheat down to around
the 81 mark.
1t was the late P. D. Armour who
was called upon at the last minute to
overthrow the young Joe" Letter
when the impetuous millionaire tried
to corner wheat, and now his son has
fallen heir to task which is even
greater. Letter was OverthrOwn at a
cost of 100000 to himself and
friends and was forced to go through
bankruptcy.
Armour Interests Short.
The Armour Grain company is said
to be short on wheat and on the same
side of the market are the other large
elevator interests of the country
J. Ogden Armour led these forces
against the bulls. There is still nine
ty days time in which to deliver the
May wheat that James A. Patten has
bought, and the bears are not inclined
to force the fighting at the present
stage
Wheat yesterday acted seemingly
according to it's own free will. 1t
opened at SLIT 3-S, cents lower than
it closed Saturday at noon. During
the trading fluctuations were varied
and brokers stormed the pit, buying
and selling in a perfect frenzy.
At the close of the markets Patten
had given enough support to send
wheat to $117. This price was taken
as showing nothing of the real condi-
ton of the market.
Both Sides Take Rosy View.
Both the bulls and the bears ap-
pear confident, and both quote volubly
of figures which seem to prove that
the position they have taken is the
correct one. Patten, as the leader of
the bull market, says that there is
not enough wheat to supply the
worlds demand, while the leaders in
the bear movement assert, and with
apparent confidence, that Patten is
mistaken.
Walter Fitch, former president of
the board of trade and a member of
the firm of Pringle G Fitch, declared
yesterday that Patten was on the
right side of the market and that
wheat would go to $125 a bushel.
