PATTEN TO QUIT WHEAT FIGHT
While Saying So, He Leads Bull
Raid and Price Goes to SI.29.

Chicago, April 15.-James A.
Patten, so-called "wheat king Of
the world today announced his
intention of getting out of the
present market and closing out
his long line of wheat.
Coupled with this announce
ment, Patten announced the p,e-
diction that after he was out of the
market, wheat would 90 even
higher than it is selling today.
He reiterated his former declara-
tions that ne was not operating a
corner, said he did not intend 10
put the cereal up any higher, and
declared he had kept it up to a
high figure to prevent exporters
from getting hold of it aud ship
ping It abroad.
i Despite Patterns announced in
teDtion to sell out he apparently
intends to do go cautiously. In
the last hour of todays session
the wheat bulls. Patten leading
made fine drive and sent the
price of May and July up to rec
ORD figures S1.29 and St.1S3 re-
spectively. Patten is credited
with being the chief buyer.
The wheat shorts have apparent
ly about given up hope that the
longs will ever unload in sufficient
quantities to permit them to
cover and their plight is desper-
ate. Trading during the day was
large, and the range in May and
July prices very wide. The May
range was &c and the July 2g.
81 am not in corner" said the
grain speculator. 81 have no
such line of wheat as is attributed
to me. | am selling my wheat. |
intend to sell it all. l will sell out
my line. am not going any
higher, but the prices will go
higher just the same with me out,
because there is not enough wheat
to go around"
He sat in his big Office ia the
Western Union Building, putting
at long black cigar. He spok e
of the agitation over high priced
wheat in grave manner.
He was told that an effort was
to be made to have Congress
"put an end to the wheat corner
in Chicago" He shook his head
in the man ner of the man, who be.
comes tired explaining.
81 can not help it," he went on
'It is not my fault that these
prices maintain. They might be
higher. It is the old law Of sup
ply and demand and that law i:
inexorable. There is not snough
wheat in any of the other whea
producing countries. l have
stopped our exports, which woulC
have been tremendous TO thes,
countries by putting the price
above the export basis. Usually
we export between 150,000,00
and 200, 100000 bushels annually
l have practically stopped that
Ii it had gone on, you can vel
imagine what the price of whea
would now be-"

POLICE PATROL
STICKS IN
The MUD

Mud and snow caused the down.
fall of the police auto early this
morning for the first time since
its advent in Tacoma. The patrol,
driven by Grant Woodruff, was
fastening to the home of I. Y.
Simpson at 4044 Tacoma avenue,
where a patient of the county hos
pita1, who escaped while delirious,
had been found.
When near the Simpson home
the wheels of the patrol became
stuck in the plastic ooze, and the
powerful engine failed to bulge
it. For two hours Driver Wood
ruff worked on his machine, and
at last, after shovelling the snow
and mud from in front of the
wheels he managed to get 1t In
motion again.
Jailer Waddell, who was in the
patrol, had in the meantime walk
ed with the delirious patient,
James Dudley, to the hospital.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-If you
could have seen jeremiah Krevu-
liam, chap of 101 years, dance
the Russian kozotsky at the Grand
Central palace the other night,
you would have realized how true
is the saying, "a man is as old as
he feels"
jeremiah got through the
dance right well. considering it
has been 20 years since he danced
1t. He was 81 then. Once when
he was 70 the newspapers had a
story about him, at that age, dane
ing the kozotsky.
Little Mendell Diamond stepped
to the floor after Jeremiah quit.
Mendell is 100. At the home Of
the Little Sisters Of Jacob. where
Mendell and Jeremiah live, there
has been q good deal OF talk late
ly about how old Mendell was get
ting. But Mendell did the ko-
zotsky In such q fine crisp style
this time that he says he's sure
the folks will stop talking about
his age now.
Boruch Weber, however. took
al the honors. Boruch e 109.

|Of course, his being older than
the Others might have had some
thing to do with his knowing
more about the kozotsky dance
than the others. There was a
finish about Weher's dance that
the others didn't display. It's true
that Boruch didn't get around
quite as lively as Mendell did. His
legs didn't work as rapidly. But
Boruch's arm and posture work
was all that could be desired. And
then-as Rose Stahl said in the
Chorus Lady" cit isn't all in
the dance; it's the smile that
counts"-Boruch LWeher's smile
helped immensely.
Mfcha Schtelsky, who will be
1903 years old in June, did a
dance with Mendell that was pop
ular in Russia a century ago.
Even the historians Of dancing
have forgotten 1t.
Esther Davis, LOG, danced a
minuet with Boruch. This made
up q quarrel they had earlier in
the evening. The elevator man at
the old felix's home was witness to
the fact that ON the way down to
the first floor, as they were
bound for the taxicab that was GO
ing to take them to the Grand
Central palace for the dance, Bor-
UGH gave Esther a little poke in
the ribs and chuckled, "You want
to watch me dance tonight"
The elevator man heard Esther
reply something about Mendell's
dancing ability, and her doubt as
to Boruch's grace.
Boruch was talking pretty ener-
eetically to his companion as they
left the building.
Their dance later In the even
ing, however, showed that peace
had been restored.
They're together q whole lot
Of the Time" said one Of the
nurses In the home. They're lust
like sweethearts.'
