Tornado of Selling Striken the Pit
Twenty Minutes Before Ihr Closing
Hour, and the Dny Wum Saved rVoN
Rout Only by the Exertions of
Hull Leader Putten, who Rought
Three Million Bushels of July.
Chicago, HI., April 15.?R was a
day of tumult and sharply shifting
fortunes in the wheat pit of the board
of trade today. July wheat, followed
a docile advance to a new high level,
suddenly dropped an extreme 4 3-4
cents. The "pyramided" fortunes of
small speculators vanished in a trice
and the day was saved from rout only
hy the vigorous exertions of the bull
leader. James A. Patten.
Within the last fifteen minutes of
trading Mr. Patten bought 3,000,
000 bushels of wheat for July dell
very.
"Nothing but a flurry,' he said, but
that was after the turbulent pit had
been deserted for the day.
During that final quarter of an hour
he was a very busy man. Into the cor?
ridor of the Western Union building,
In which the Bartlett-Patten officers
f.re located, floated the sound of high
pitched, nervous voices as clerks sat
the telephone shot in buying orders
to other clerks in the pit.
"Buy fifty! Buy a hundred! Buy
twenty five!"
These numbers referred to thous?
ands of bushels of wheat, and there
were many smaller ones?so many, In
fact, that not all of them were filled.
R was a physlcial impossibility to do
so.
Tt was Patten against the field and
the final gong showed the former ap?
parently was as mighty fts ever. His
purchases and those of his followers,
together with the profit-taking of
shorts, who lost no time in securing
the fruits of their bearish daring,
caused a reaction of over a cent all
along the line. But before this occur
? d. the hoard of many a small spec?
ulator had i one.
In hundreds of bakeries there was
a different scene. Flour had risen and
the bakers, with corrugated brows,
were trying to find out where their
profits were coming from unless the
price of bread could be raised.
According to one of the largest bak?
ers in the city, the price of flour has
doubled in the last six years; lard has
done likewise; milk has advanced 33
1-S per cent, delivery charges have
doubled; and yet the price of bread
remains thes same. Three years ago
when flour prices were on a rampage,
many bakers saved their profits by
reducing the weight of their loaves
ant' quality of flour used. But it Is
eatd there Is no further extreme of ec?
onomy to which they can go, and
mean-while they allege that their net
? arnlngs are nil. So far, however, no
I ncerted action has been taken with
regard to the situation.

nado hit the pit. Stop loss orders came
out In a deluge, and thI bears, stirred
by a flve-cent decline at Winnipeg,

exporters, attacked the market with
great spirit. July tumbled half a cent
at a time to $1.14 1-2. an extreme loss

dropped to $1 26, and September, an

INCOME TAX LAW.
Senator Pailey Introduces Amend?
ment to Aldrich Tariff Hill?Re?
lieves His Measure Levying 3 Per
C ent on Incomes Would He Upheld
by The Supreme Court,
Washington, April 15.?Senator
Bailey today introduced an income tax
amendment to the tariff bill. It pro?
vides for a straight tax of 3 per cent,
on all incomes above $5,000 a year.
It exe.npts all incomes from federal,
state, county and municipal securities,
salaries of all State officers and In?
comes of corporations below $5,000,
Mr. Bailey does not attempt to avioJ
the constitutional question and in
effect challenges them.
Mr. Bailey said that the tariff bill
reported to the senate was in the main
the game as that of 1894. His income
tax amendment, he said, was the same
a3 the law which had formerly been
enacted with minor exceptions. He
had In this amendment raised the ex?
emption from incomes of $4,000 to in?
comes of $5,000 and had raised the
rate of tax from 2 to 3 per cent., which
ho said, would result in a greater rev?
enue than would the 2 per cent, tax
on $4,000 incomes.
"I have also," said Mr. Bailey, "re?
sponded to the unanimous decision of
tho supreme court of the United
States that congress has no power to
levy an income tax on State, county
and municipal securities and I have
specifically exempted incomes derived
from that source. I regard it as un?
fortunate that they were previously
Included in the law. I thought it plain
that the court would, and I think it
effectually plain that the court ought to
have decided, that that part of the
lgw was not constitutional."
In other respects, ho said, his am?
endment still challenges that decision
of the supreme court. He was satisfied
that his amendment was not in con?
travention of the constitution. He be?
lieved a majority of the court erred
in that decision,
"And," he said, "remembering that
that decision was by a divided court
and that it overruled the decisions of
100 years, I do not think it Improper
for the American congress to consider
the question of its reconsideration by
the supreme court."
Mr Bailey said he did not introduce
his amendment because he desired to
tax prosperity, but because he prefer
ted "to tax the incomes of prosperous
people rather to place it upon the
backs and upon the appetites of peo?
ple who at best are doing none too
well."
"Can the senator advise the senate
what amount his Income tax amend?
ment would raise?" asked Mr. Al
drlch.
"No more," replied Mr. Bailey,
"than the senator can tell the amount
lUg tariff bill will raise."
Mr. Aldrlch replied that he would
do that later.
Mr. Bailey added that his amend?
ment would raise from $60,000,000 to
$80,000,000 annually.

New York Sun to Roosevelt.
? The New York Sun never tires of
taking a pot-shot at Mr. Theodore
Roosevelt, and its latest?"Royalty's
Privileged View of the Contributing
Editor"?is being received as one of
its most severe. The Sun jabs the
former president for his make-up
when he put in appearance before the
king and queen of Italy. Extracts
are:
It is a great relief to know that the
King and Queen of Italy saw the Con?
tributing Editor in Rough Rider cos?
tume instead of in the tame and un?
meaning conventional attire usually
MfUmejfl by American citizens of
great distinction when traveling
abroad. It was in such attire that
he became famous. In tan colored
garments and rawhide legging!, with
the frontier red handkerchief around
his neck and every tooth displayed to
Its utmost advantage, he charged
What-d'yeoallem Hill, hilariously shot
in the back the solitary Spaniard flee?
ing before his onset, and became at
once the hero of Santiago.
Naturally it gratified all good Ital?
ians to see the real thing at its best.
We can imagine the awe with which
they beheld the incarnated tragedy of
1898 and measured th** stupendous
forces that were then set in motion
against the Latin race. Of course, it
was no part of Mr. Roosevelt's per?
sonal design to concentrate attention
on himself. The press bureau in his
train has already certified to the mod?
esty with which he bears himself
abroad, and to his private preference
for seclusion in its most bashful form.
Always inspired, he knew what the
crowned heads wanted, and he yield?
ed at the sacrifice of his most inti?
mate predilections. The apparition
followed. Slouch hat, flaming khaki,
serried teeth, boots, pistols, etc., he
presented in his single person the
bristling heights of San Juan and the
slaughter that followed and radiated
from him on that cyclonic day.
Unfortunately for them the African
wild animals do not take the news
Papers, or they would guess the fate
approaching them and prepare for it
according to their various tempera?
ments and opportunities. The King
and Queen of Italy saw him only in
the comparatively innocuous garb of
the Rough Rider at ease, in plain
khaki, with nothing but the Wild
w.st SCOWl and the usual side-arms
to support the picture. That was
enough for them, no doubt; but when
the African fauna see him In full pan?
oply there a/Ill be another story.

PEACE IN TURKEY.
SUCCESSFUL MOVEMENT EX?
PLAINED BY ULEMAS.
Sultan Ohsored by Crowd?Gives
Ministers Solemn Promise to Up?
hold Constitution?Feared That
Trouble is Not Over.
Constantinople, April IG.?A mani?
festo, issued yesterday by a commit?
tee of the ulemas, in which the move?
ment of the last few days is declared
to be in no wise directed against tin
constitutional government has creat?
ed an excellent impression on tho
public.
Vice Almiral Adjlemln Pasha, the
new minister of marine, has resigned
owing to the hostility shown him by
the navy. The president of the coun?
cil of state also has surrendered Irs
office, but on account of ill health.
Ralf Pasha has succeeded him.
The minister of police and other
officers identified with the committee
of union and progress have cither re?
signed or disappeared.
The Selamika today was attended
by a great crowd. The sultan was
loudly cheered. The ulemas offered
prayer invoking the benediction of
heaven upon the sultan, the Sheri
laws and the empire. His majesty
afterwards gave an audience to the
ministers and reiterated to them the
solemn assurance that he would up?
hold the constitution.
The city is returning to more nor?
mal conditions. Business is being re?
sumed except in Stamboul and parts
of the Caleta quarter, where many
Christian shops are still colsed, not?
withstanding the declarations of the
police that the people have nothing
to fear; but the impression prevails
that the trouble is not yet ended, and
the populace is very nervous over
what is likely to happen at Salonika
and Manastir.
It is currently reported that some
l.'.OO Salonika troops who are march?
ing to Constantinople will be received
cn the outskirits of the city by a dep?
utation of uelmas and superior of?
ficers, who, it Is thought, will easily
convince them of the true meaning
of Tuesday's events.

Washington, April 17.?The Demo?
cratic senators will not delay the pot
?agc Of the tariff bill. They held their
second conference today and while no?
i '.i mal conclusion was reached on any
p<dnt th< r.' was a ( on-, usus of opin?
ion in favor of permitting the Re?
publicans to take entire charge of tho
measure with the understanding that
they assume, as they necessarr.> mtrei?
the entire responsibility for it.
It was stated that the postpone?
ment of proceedings in the senate was
due to a request from the Democrats,
but they take exception to this state?
ment, and say they will be prepared)
to proceed with the consideration of
the bill whenever the Republican sen?
ators desire to take it up.
The nearest approach to a formal
agreement of the Senators was a re?
iteration of their former expressions
in favor of an income tax. There is
no doubt that the party in the senate
is united on that point, but there wa&
no effort to bring about a concerted)
understanding en rates of duty on
any of the articles covered by the
tariff. There was no divergence of
opinion as to the desirability of a pCO>
4*ral reduction of rates on necessaries
of Mfe. but there were some indica?
tions that individual Democratic sen?
ators would stand against specified
decreases in the interests of their own
localities.
UNKNOWN MAN KILLER.
Body Found Friday Morning Reside
Railroad Track in Rocky Bluff 4
Swamp.
Coroner Flowers held an inques^
Friday over the body of an unknown
white man who was found dead that
morning beside the railroad traca tn
Rocky Bluff Swamp, between thia
city and Mayesville.
The man was apparently fotty or
forty-five years old and had only one
H g. His crutches were found a short
distance from the body, their posi?
tion indicating that they had been
placed en the ground when the man
seated himself on the end of the
cross-ties.
Xo one could identify the body and?
there was nothing found in his pock-*
cts that would indicate his name or
home. He had about %2 in small
change and a few other articles of
small value and a copy of the Dally
[ten of April 9th on which was th?~
address lable to Mr. J. J. Barrett, of
Mayesville which goes to prove that
ho had been in Mayesville and pickedi
up the paper there.
The only testimony brought at the
Inquest was given by ratttwd section
hands who had sei n the man the pre?
vious afternoon lying on the ground
in the woods about seventy-five yards
fiom the track. He had a bottle of
whiskey and was apparertly under
the influence of liquor.
Dr. F. K. Holman exammed the ?
body and stated that death was due to
a fractured scapula, internal injuries
and dislocation of the neck, the result
of direct violence, which produced in?
stant death.
The verdict of the jury was that
the said unknown white man camo
to this death from a lick from an en?
