BY HIS LIEUTENANT

MINNEAPOLIS. April 1S.-Charles E
Lewis lieutenant to James A. Patter,,
after spending he past week in Chicago
with his chief. today predicts that the
price of wheat will reach $40 for the
Minneapolis, Duluth and Winnipeg July
option before the summer is over. Mar
kets like Minneapolis. Kansas City and
Duluth, ne says. will be higher than
Chicago within two weeks. Mr.. Lewis
has been bull since last fall.
Lewis emphaucally deaied that Patten
was bulling the market, and said that
conditions, and not the man. were re-
spOnstble for the great advance.
There has been much misapprehen-
sion as to the actual situation" he
said land Mr.. Patten has been ac-
cused of manipulation that he never
thought Of. He IS not trying to pCt
wheat up. He believed long ago that
IL would 20 up because of supply con-
ditions, and he bought some. That is
all there is to II.
The advance in wheat, the continued
upward trend, really began four years
ago when Minneapolis gave a dinner

his birthday. II was at the MinneapO-
servation. showed that the farmers
