WHEAT KINGS
WIFE KICKED

The loosening of Jim Patterns grip
on the wheat market, according to a
story in Wall street was due neither
to fear that he couldn't hold it nor
satisfaction with the profits he had

work.
When the newspapers began to
print stories showing that the size
of bread loaves had been reduced be-
cause of the Patten holdings and that

her husband to let go some of the
wheat he held.

have asked him, and she prayed

of grain he held the prices might
drop, and the poor might be relieved
of their distress.

said to have replied, after several
days of prayer and urgings. And

OIL wheat, as a starter, to Shearson,

HISTORY RECALLED.
Last Previous Fourth of July Session
of the Senate.


Washington, July 6.-The session of
the senate yesterday makes the twelfth
time in the history of the nation that
body has met on Independence day.
The meeting yesterday was less spec
tacular than the last time the senate
had met on that day. 1t was during
the Spanish-American war. Senator w.
v. Allen, of Nebraska, was in the
question Of the annexation of the Ha-
Waiian islands.
While he was speaking Senator Frye
of Maine, the presiding officer, inter
rupted him to state that he had just
the senate would be interested in hear
ing. He had read at the clerks desk,
a cablegram from Admiral Sampson,
announcing the victory of the Ameri-
can naval forces at Santiago over Ger
vera's fleet. At no other time within
the memory of senators now living has
the senate app1auded as it did then.

Financier Charles w. Morse Claims

New York. July 6-CharIes w.
Morse, the financier who was released
from the Tombs on $125,0OO bail, con-
templates a trip to Europe before his
appeal for a new trial is heard in the
fall. Mr.. Morse, who had just return
ed to New York from Bath, Maine,
has informed his friends that parties
in Europe are holding a majority of
the securities through which he hopes
to financially rehabilitate himself and
that by calling on them personally he
can effect a quick arrangement in his
own favor.
When Morse was released on bail,
it was expressly stipulated that he
should not leave the United States as
the charges against him do not con-
stitute an International extraditable
offense. Mr.. Morse's friends say that
all of the men on his bond are will
ing that he should go TO Europe and
are said to be willing to so inform
the court.
