WHEAT SILL GOING DOWN

Chicago, May 2S.-James A. Patten
once proudly acclaimed as "The
Worlds Wheat King" the man who
has. been worsted in what he says
Is his last battle on the board of trade
! again paid visit to the wheat pit
1t may have been his last visit to the
scene OF many hard fought battle,
struggles in which Patten has won
and lost fortunes, again 1t may not
have been the last visit.
There are men on the Chicago board
Of trade, men who have fought with
Patten In the years in which he has
been a daring operator in grains and
provisions, men who have fought
against him and men who have mere
ly- been witnesses of these battles,
who believe that 1t will not be many
months before James A. Patten is seen
in action again.
A Grudge Against Armour.
The business enmity which Patten
is known to hold against ]. Ogden
Armour and the fact that Armour has
been the winner Of the last bout be-
tween these two financial giants, will
in the opinion Of men who know Pat
ten best induce him to return to the
fray in the attempt to pay back the
grudge that he believes he owes the
packer.
Patten was non-cOmmittal when
questioned about the possibility Of
engaging in more board of trade deals
in the future.
His Remark to the Broker.
a. have said that am going to
retire on June l." he said to a crowd
Of brokers who surrounded him, "and
intend to keep my word. | am out
OF wheat now, and while l have sus-
tanned losses in this last deal, still
firmly believe that my position on the
market was the correct one. But
with every one hammering away at
me there was nothing to do but to
get from under as best could"
Are you coming back?" Patten
was asked. n
Il think NOT but perhaps and
there he stopped.
The jubilant bears continued their
dance Of joy In the pit. Prices on
all tines of wheat took a further
slump. September wheat touched a
low mark of 9Sh cents bushel, open
ing at 92%c and closing at 921sc, one
half cent under the closing price on
Thursday.
II James A. Patten were discon.
certed by the onslaught which the
bears on the New York cotton ex.
change were making against his gigan-
tic cotton corner, he did not betray It
while he was on the floor of the board

tn available for the May delivery In
New York; In cotton for the July de-
livery he is long something like AGO..

represent many millions Of dollars and

cheering. Before the onslaught of

MODERNISM CAUSE OF
A SPLIT IN POWWOWS
Younger Generation of Indians
Cuts Loose From Those
Bound to Tradition.
From the Sioux City Tribune.

Hundreds are visiting the Indian
reservation at Winnebago, Neb., and
are being entertained by the pow-wow,
which is being held there this week.
According to Mr.. Frantz, the Indians
are divided in their celebration this
year. When all the members Of the
old committee were re-appointed to
serve this ear the other members
broke away from the organization and
decided to hold q pow-wow Of their
own. The older Indians established
their camp at the %flagpole, which is
about four miles from Winnebago,
while the other factions camped just
outside Of town. The young commit
tee men are inclined to be mercenary
In their celebration and have merry
go-rounds, novelties and other attrac.
tons to secure the money of the WIS.,
itors. The older Indians ave remained
true to tradition and are conducting
their pow-wow the same as was done
by the ancestors a century ago.
Dances Of all descriptions are held
during the day and the visitors find
them highly entertaining. Between
dances the Indians sit in a circle in a
small tent. One Of their number beats
q tom-tom, and as the dull notes re-
sound through the air the others raise
their voices In weird chants. The
dances are held in the open air and
| the Indians wear their tribal dress and
war paint in the performance.

DEMAND FOR HARVEST
HANDS Is URGENT

WATERFOWL, s.. D., July 23.-Urgent
calls are being sent out from towns
Along the Minneapolis g. st. Louis road
n the James river valley for harvest
hands. Condo alone has appealed ia
division headquarters of the road in
his city to secure the importation Of
200 men at once.
Harvest is on in full blast in that
section of the state. Owing to reports
IF drouth earlier In the season, the us.
Ial influx of harvest hands shows a de.
cided falling off in numbers. Recent
not weather is ripening the grain a
trifle sooner than expected, and the
farmers are away short Of help.
Experts now believe that the yield
IF wheat will be larger than antici.
2ated even a week ago. w. II. Stokes
president of the Stokes Milling com.
pany, Of this city, after an EXTENDED
rip over the northwestern part of the
state made especially to examine the
wheat, said that fields az a rule, owing
10 the late and copious rains, have
grown two extra rows of kernels in the
head. Further. he said, 1.-THE berry is
going to be plump and the bushels pei
acre will be accordingly Of greater
number.

TEACHER SECURES
RESTORATION OF HER
DAKOTA CLAIM TITLE
Lost Land When She Sole
Shanty, but Government
Office Gives It Back.

Pierre, s. D.. July 25.-In the case OF
Efie M. Walker and A. o. Stranger al
transferee for a tract Of land in Hyde
county, the secretary Of the interior
overrules the decision of the general
land office in cancelling the proof OF
Miss Walker, to a tract Of land In Hyde
county. The claimant filed on the
tract in 1906 and made residence on
tho claim and committed the entry In
the spring Of 1906. Later, she sold the
tract, and in August. 1906, a special
agent of the government recommend
ed cancellation Of the proof on account
Of insufficient residence and cultiva-
ton.
At the hearing ii was shown that the
claimant had provided a comfortable
small house on the tract; had broken
five acres which was cultivated; and
used the claim as a home while she
taught school at a point about four
miles from the tract. She boarded near
her school during that time, but went
to the claim every Friday evening, re-
naming until Monday morning, ex-
cept during the holiday vacation, which
she spent with her parents at Huron.
The house was comfortably furnished
and was supplied with sufficient fuel
to Withstand the severity Of winter, and
the residence was held on the land up
TO the time Of final proof. When proof
was made the claimant left her furni-
ture in the building until a part Of the
structure and contents were stolen.
when sho sold what was left Of the
building and took away her belongings.
This was given as one of the evil
dences Of bad faith on her part. After
a review in the case the holdings of the
general land office are reversed
and proof sustained. This case will
be Of more than passing in
terest to many young women who are
holding homesteads while teaching
school, and VIII likely be used as q
precedent to many like cases which are
numerous in the northwest.
