PATTERNS DEAL SUCCESSFUL.
Bull Leader In Chicago Pit Satisfied
With a Profit Of a Million Dollars.

Chicago. What is generally conced-
ed to have been the most successful
wheat deal in the annals of the Chi
cago board of trade closed Saturday
and 1t closed without squeezing OF
shorts, which in other days was wont
to furnish show to the gallery Wis
itors and leave La Sale street stag

James A. Patten during Saturdays
brief session made fixed price OF
$1.34 a bushel. Through his pit clerk,
ED" Walker, he bought or sold at
that price, but the buying was almost
purely theoretical on his part. He
did take in a few thousand bushels
from some trailer" who waited until
the last moment for his profits, but
in the main he disposed Of about a
half million to shorts who had hoped

Mr.. Patten has made fortune, how
much he cannot say until his cash

run much larger. The losses, 1t is

ATTEMPT TO RUN TRAINS
BRINGS ON RACE TROUBLE
Negro Fireman Was the Cause Of the
Trouble. and He Was Spirited
Away From Scene to Pre-
vent Lynehing.

Atlanta, Ga--The first violence to
railroad property in the Georgia rail-
road firemens strike occurred Friday
night. A moving freight train at Lith.
onia, Ca. was attacked. In conse.
quence the race issue doomed up
more sharply than before. A negro
fireman was apparently the cause OF
the trouble. and he was rushed to At
lanta on an engine to save him from
a mob. The train was stoned and
then boarded by men who set the
brakes and broke It into three sec
lions.
The engine left for Lithonia to bring
a trainload of perishable provisions
into Atlanta. Assurances had been
given that In the interest OF local
shippers whose valuable cargoes were
tied up, no demonstration would be
made against hauling these cars to
Atlanta When. however, the engine
reached Lithonia its negro fireman
was seen. About 200 people gathered
at the station and just as the train
was getting under way the mob whic !
had gathered began a bombardme :
with stones. and soon secured control
OF the train.
The race issue has developed in
what constitutes its two strongest
holds on the southern people. The
first was the unanimity shown by an
entire community in resenting the
using of negroes In capacity to
which they objected. The other sen.
timeDt was the determination OF EN-.
ployers to stand Loyalty by negroes
who have rendered them a long and
faithful service
