BOUGHT AT A LOW PRICE
Commodity Has Now Gone 10 rs
Cents a BusheI and the Former
Wheat King Is Said to Hold Nearly
the Entire Visible Supply.

Chicago, Aug. 1S.-James A Patten
Chicago's multimillionaire grain bro
ker, smiled broadly when the statistic.
al bureau of agriculture at Washing.
ton made its corn report. 1t is a
gloomy report, indicating that there
will be not more than so per cent of q
full crop. Patten is long.
'Oh, not so very long," he said at
his Evanston home. "All I've got is
a million bushels or so-about 1,1OO..
600 bushels, to be accurate"
Quietly, systematically, through
confidential agents, Patten has been
buying corn as fast as it could be
bought. The market is tense with
excitement, because ii is generally
believed that Patten has bought fol
future delivery about all the corn that
can be delivered.
The only evidence as to the amount
he really has bought is his statement
-"only a million or So" But reports
were widely circulated in La Sale
tracts owned or controlled by Patten
would reach the figure of at least s..
100000 bushels.
He bought, il is said at bottom
prices: at least he did the bulk OF his
buying at the bottom. Lately, how.
ever, as more and more persons have
learned of the discouraging prospect
of crop, the price has advanced. 1t
is now around rs cents. Patten Is
said to have bought as low as AZ
cents. His paper profits" which
would be profits In pocket If he sold
his holdings at the present market
price, are estimated at from S250,0O0
TO 100000.

Washington, Aug. 1S.-Administra.
ton officials here expect the next
move in the Mexican situation to
come from the Huerta government.
Official advices that the views OF
the United States, as set forth in a
formal note had been delivered to
the Mexican government and were
under consideration by Provisional
President Huerta and his cabinet,
were received here with the addition
al information that the views of the
United States had been transmitted
at the same time to diplomatic repre-
sentatives of foreign governments in
Mexico City, according to President
Wilson's original plan.
Secretary Bryan preserved silence,
even declining to say whether the
note had been presented. President
Wilson, after going over the situa-
ton, left for the golf links. The Mex
lean embassy here had no advices
whatever of Mr.. Lind's note; it had
not been advised of it's contents by
the state department here and EN-
bassy officials expected to receive ii,
If at all, from Minister Gamboa in
Mexico City.
Publication is Withheld.
Publication of this governmnt's
views, as set out in the note, is be-
ing withheld for the present at the
request of the Huerta government
that it be permitted first to go over
the communication. Secretary Bry-
ans plan is to publish the contents,
simultaneously in Washington and
Mexico City later, and probably with
the acquiescence of Huerta.
The senate foreign relations COM
mittee again discussed phases of the
Mexican situation and the scope OF
the report by the special investigat-
ing committee, of which Senator
Smith of Michigan was chairman.
The committee directed that this
report and an individual report by
Senator Fall should be laid before
the entire foreign relations commit
tee, probably next week, for decision
whether they shall be submitted to
the senate. None of the pending res
olutions on Mexican affairs was acted
upon.

KEPT HIM ON EDGE.
The Maddenins Joke Eugene Field
Played on a Printer.

When Eugene Field was city editor
o. the Kansas City Times he found
great amusement in annoying to the
point of distraction one of the charac-
teIs employed on the paper.
Ferguson WAS one of the "maHeups'
OF the paper, and in Wyandotte, where
he resided. just over the line from
Kansas City, he was the leader of a
local temperance society. For over a
year Field. on coming down to the pa
per to go to work. would write a per-
sonal concerning Ferguson. Generally
it ran like this:
Mr.. John Ferguson, the well known
makeup of the Times composing room,
appeared for work yesterday evening
i'll his usual beastly state of intOXica-
ton"
This entertaining bit Field would
send down in bundle of copy, and the
others Of the composing room would
set it up and say nothing.
Poor Ferguson knew that this awful
personal WAS in their midst and ev-
cry night would 60 carefully over ev-
cry galley for the purpose of locating
and killing it. 1t gave him vast trou-
bic. Every now and then Field would
not write his personal about Ferguson,
and then the bewildered Ferguson was
worse off than ever. AS long as he
could not find it it might still be there.
1t almost drove the poor man off the
paper. Now and then it escaped his
eagle eye and was printed. On such
occasions Ferguson's burdens We're be-
spirit to bear

An Unrecognized King.

King Ferdinand was twenty-s years
old when his difficult task of ruership
began. He had to contend with the
further hardship that the European
courts refused to recognize his rank,
beyond the continual danger of plots
and attempts ut assassination which he
had to face within Bulgaria itself. OF
his external difficulties a good story is

On one of his unofficial visits to
France--for France did not recognize
him for ten years-King Ferdinand
paid visit to the Bourbon Due d Au-
