PATTfN FLIES FROM
PUBLIC C[NSURE
Wheat King Hides to Escape
From Combined Attacks of
=
Press and Ptlpit
Especial Dispatch 10 The CaHl

CHICAGO April 2f.-Disgruntled by
the attacks against him in the pulpit
and the press, disheartened by the
failure of his predictions to come true,
and the action of the market; tired of
being confronted at every turn by car
toons and lampoons directed against
him. James A. Patten has secluded
himself from the public. eye, he has re-
tired into his mole and drawn the hole
in after him. Whether he is in st.
Louis, Kansas City, or in the seclusion
of his house in Evanston. as various
rumors declare, the fact remains that
which he has brought upon himself
and has run away to hide
Armour & Co. did big scalping b1si-
ness, buying about 100000 bushels of
July wheat early and selling it all out
again later in the day at a small profit.
In the meantime more and more facts
are coming to light every day to show
that the wheat king is wrong in his
predictions about short crop and that
there is no wheat left back in the farm
ers' hands. Whether or not he has been
genuinely fooled no one but himself
knows
This afternoon brokers were asking
each other whether or not Patten had
suddenly concluded to. pull out of the
deal suddenly, just Is he did a year
ago last February, when he made a
failure of his first big wheat deal. and
after declaring that he would not shave
until May wheat struck $3.50 he sud
denly turned around and inside of few
days closed out all of his wheat trades
and sailed for Europe. At that time
It was generally reported and estimated
that his losses on the wheat deal were
$4,000 900, although he had made more
than that on the oats and corn deals
which he was running at the same
time.

CLIENT THREATENS
TO SLAY ATTORNEY
Lawyer Perry, Terrified at
Sight of Big Revolver, Flees
From His Office

George II. Perry, manager of the San
Francisco commercial agency. came
rushing downstairs from his office in
the Grant building yesterday afternoon.
breathless and perspiring. and meeting
Justice A. B. Lawson in the entrance
grasped him by the arm and gasped:
Get a policeman. There's man up in
my office with revolver who is trying
to kill met
Lawson asked bystander to go in
search of policeman, and himself pro-
ceeded to Perry's room on the third
floor, where he found wild eyed man
with a big revolver trained on the door
What's the natter. asked Lawson
calmly.
I'm looking for Perry. and I'm 60
ing to kill him" was the emphatic re-
sponse- He has robbed me of money
he collected for me and sold me out"
Lawson by sympathetic demeanor
brought out full statement from the
man. who said his name was Charles
Aelbring of 4O5 Gates street. He had
secured a Judgment for sSS in Justice
Floods court against Jacob Wasser-
kruk of 2123 Fillmore street for car
penter work, but when Perry. in whose
hands he had placed the Judgment for
collection. went to see wasserkruk the
latter had paid him some money. Ael-
bring claimed. to drop the case.
He took the money" shouted Ael-
bring, 'and then came back and told
me that all the property of Wasserkruk
was in his daughters name, and that it
was no use trying to collect the judg-
ment He sold me out. and now 1 am
going to kill him.
Judge Lawson soothed the man and
finally succeeded by ruse in securing
his revolver and taking him downstairs
to get a cigar. As they reached the
door the policeman took hold of Ael-
bring and led him away. Five minutes
later he came back ana would have at
tackled Perry, who by this time had en-
tered his office. but for the interference
of Lawson. who again led him into the
arms of a policeman and from thence
to a patrol wagon and Jail.
Perry admits that he collected money
from Wasserkruk. but says it was only
a small amount to cover the costs and
that the man had no attachable prop
erty He asserts that Aelbring is a
lunatic and that he will apply for police
protection against him.

LEGISLATIVE BRIBERY
SCANDAL IN ARIZONA

Will Indict Guilty Men

PHOENIX. Ariz, April 21.-The fact
became public today that the grand
jury now sitting has taken steps to
expose the suspected scandal in con-
nection with the recent session of the
legislature, having under considera-
tion the indictment OF unknown per-
sons for an alleged attempt to bribe
certain members of the legislature in
connection with the passage of the To-
cal option bill.
The inquiry is based on statements
of ST. Charles, who voted for the bill,
remarking as he did so that if he
voted against it, it would be construed
that he was bribed.

"A DespicabIe Coward"

ANY man who makes such charges
against a woman as are made by this
Gould person is a despicable coward .
said Farnum. Il met Mrs. Gould about
eight years ago in New York. She
and other prominent women asked me
to take part in a charity affair. 1
played short sketch with Miss May
Robson After that / met Mrs. Gould
accidentally at different times. never
was alone with her in my life.
THAT automobile trip mentioned by
Gould was as harmless as anything in
the world. There were four women
beside myself and the chauffeur in the
party 1 accepted the invitation be-
cause I love automobiling.
I'VE went from Philadelphia to At
lantic City. and enjoyed the trip. At
Atlantic City Mrs. Gould was taken ill
and was confined to her ROOM But
this illness was not the result of
booze as he declared. We did not
have a single drink of intoxicating IL
quor on that trip.
II met Mrs. Gould again in Connecti-
cut, when I was playing in The Vir-
ginian. 1 attended dinner party at
which she was present. with four or
five others. 1 don't remember whether
we had anything to drink or not 1t is
not unusual for women to take drink
of wine at dinner party, and Mrs.
Gould and the other women present
might have had number of drinks
for all I know.
Il never was infatuated with Mrs.
Gould. and am sure she was not with
me.

why, she was an actress when !

chusetts Institute of Technology when
I first saw her on the stage. 1t is silly
and absurd that our names should be
connected in this divorce case
Farnum said his deposition would be
a denial of every charge. The actor de-
clared that If there was any way to
secure redress from Gould he certainly
would put the matter in the hands of
his attorney.
Il don't think I can get back at him.
said Farnum. "He really has not made
any charges, but has worded his inti-
nations in such a way that he could
not be held liable

will question Farnum at the hearing.

Senator Purcell of Wahpeton has the
credit Of securing the passage of more
bills during the late legislative session
than any other member, and the bills
we're all Of such nature as to materially
benefit the average citizen. While Nj.
Purcell is a democrat, 1t does not seem
that it interfered materially with his be-
Ing a very successful legislator. 1t is
probably owing to two facts that he
succeeded SO we'll; one, that be was the
most able floor leader and the other that
he was constantly looking after the in
terests of the common people as against
class legislation. He made some Of the
lumbermen and others a little sore but
it was only in the interests Of common
fairness that he took the stand he did
on measures of great Importance. His
ability and logic, as we'll as his legal
knowledge, made his support greatly
sought and his opposition greatly to be
dreaded. 1t is not unlikely that the
people OF this state will call the distin-
guished Richland county senator to
higher position Pink Paper.
