"Jim Patten Is neither a criminal nor a
speculstor in wheat He's philanthropist
and a good man, as well as being a wise
one and the friend Of the farmers, who
have been trying for years to make profit
raising wheat. / cannot understand those
men who attack Patten in this present deal
in wheat, as he is doing just as he always
has done-no different"
This is the estimate of the head of the
firm of Patten & Bartlett. which Patten's $
friend, w. c. Sunderland of Omaha, holds.

lands office on the grain dealers floor of
the Brandes building to get the dope"
on the markets. There are lot OF other
places where quotations come in and the
ticker ticks the best part OF the day. But
the dealers always get to "Bills" once
a day and some of the others don't get
visits once a week.

Patten. Patterns wires come into the
Sunderland office and Patten 4 Bartlett

"The influence OF Jim Patten on the price
OF Iowa and Nebraska wheat ought to b

tary of Agriculture Wilson friend OF
Jim Patten," said Mr.. Sunderland Tues
day when he read more attacks on his
friend Patten He's a cash grain buyer

CONSTANTINOPLE, April 20.-The popu-
lation of the Turkish capital avoke this
morning to find the pickets OF the con-
stitutionai forces, who have surrounded
the city to make the sultan guarantee the
continuation of constitutional government
within calling distance of the old walls
that flank the capital on its south side.
The constitutonalist lines extend in
wide seml-circle around three-quarters of
the city, Pera, Galata and Stamboul, and
every hour they are becoming longer. All
roads outside of the capital are occupied
by the investing forces. whose twelve-mile
front can be traced distinctly, but move
| ment of the highways has been practically
unaffected except that now and then
travellers are stopped and questioned and
some time taken before the commander of
| the nearest outpost.
Several of the foreign military attaches
! In ConstantinopIe rode out this morning
and visited friends among the Turkish
officers, who command battali0ns OF the
constitutionalists. and had an excellent
opportunity to observe the condition of
the troops. They were amazed at the excel
lenee and completeness OF the equipment,
and the high state OF efficiency OF the field
| telegraph system. the hospitals and the
supply trains. The men are well fed, con-
fldent of ultimate success and under excel
lent discipline. All acquisitions made upon
| the people for food or animals are paid for
in cash The italian attache counted thirty
machine guns and another military observer
| learned of the presence of a division OF
