Tlir MORMNf. ORECOMAX, SATURDAY, MAY 20. lIOT. nnn ip illLLIUli 10 PROFIT IN WHEAT More Than Half Is Taken by Patten Crowd, Followers Take Balance. DlU UtAL ALL UVCK NUW Patten Still Believes High Quota tions Will Role in Sew Crop Wheat, Whieh Is Being Harvested. CHICAGO. May IS. f Special.) James A. Patten's May wheat deal promises to go out tomorrow without a blare of trumpets or fireworks of any sort. The big shorts have taken their medi cine. Patten and his followers have taken their profits, and the latest interesting chapter on the grain speculation prom ises to finish with everybody happy or silent. The bis deal has been one of the mo?t Interesting, because one of the most open and above board that ever has been run in the wheat trade.' Kasy Game to Follow. It has been and easy one for an outsider with faith in Patten to follow. Kor the most part, the big bull has had plain sail ing since the turn of the year the big holding was bought last October. 1S0H and about everything that he predicted has come to pass, or Is near enough to It to merit a claim of accuracy. Splendid profits have been realized throughout the crop year by all classes of wheat owners. The losses have been paid by the speculators, who sold property they did not own, or piecemeal by con Fumers of bread. Tales of magnificent profits from small beginnings made by occasional Investors are countless only second, in fact, to those made by farmers who believed in Pattens' predictions of very high prices. Big Profits Piled lp. Some professional speculators have also piled up colossal winnings, hut as a rule most of this class were skeptical of Pat ten's success, and have contributed to the losses. II is fair to assume that Pat ten and his Immediate associates in the deal cleaned up a profit of approximately J5.000.000. while his followers profited to the extent of 14.000.000. Mr. Patten continues to talk high prices for new crop wheat, of which the har vesting has Just begun In Texas, and which will not aU be cut before the end of August.
