WHEAT PANIC CLOSED.
Patten Fixes Price at SI.34 and
Re-
fuse to Send It Higher,
Chicago, May 31. May wheat
walked out of the pit of tho Chicago
Board of Trade today with head up,
firm atep and not a sign of wavering
anywhere tho second time in the
history of tho board when 'a wheat
corner was carried through successfully
to the final day of tho option. The
only other successful deal was that in
September wheat conducted by B. P.
Hutchinson, more than 20 years ago,
when tho prlco touched $2.
Opening at $1.31, which was a cent
higher than the closa of yesterday, the
market remained steady during the
trading hours, finally closing at the
opening price. Mr. Patten's brokers
otood ready all morning to Bell to any
one who wanted to buy at the quoted
price, and they also stood ready to buy
irom any who wanted to sell at that
price. It is estimated that the trading
in tho option amounted to about 150,-
000 bushels.
It is believed that Mr. Patten has
about 0,000,000 bushels of cash wheat
pn hand to dispose of. Experts say
that, owing to the recognized scarcity
of milling wheat, ho will bo able to
sell hi possessions at prices ranging
from $1.25 to today's closing quota
tions. It is said that within the last
few days local millers have paid from
1 to 2 cents above the May price to get
milling wheat.

HONOR TMEGULARS
President Taft Speaks on Noted
Field of Gettysburg,
OPPOSED TO REDUCTION IN km
Expects Congress, With Aid of Hot
Weather, to Adjourn by June
20 Monument Unveiled.
Gettysburg, Pa., June 1. Yeaterday
wa the day of tardy honor to tho "reg
ular" at Gettysburg. An imposing
shaft of granite, erected by congress
to the memory of thoso of tho regular
army who Ml tn the three days' battle,
was unveiled by the president's daugh
ter, Mi Helen II. Taft, while tho
president paid tribute to officers and
men of tho United States army, past
and present.
The president put himself on record
as opposed to any reduction in tho
standing army. He told of the preju
dice that often had arisen against the
poisible aggressions of a regular army
and a professional soldiery, and of the
corresponding difficulty in arousing
that love and pride in the army which
expresses itself today and has fre
quently expressed itself in tho past in
behalf of tho navy. The president as
serted that the services of the regulars
bad never been commemorated ade
quately by congress or tho nation.
"Tho profession of arms always baa
been an honorable one," be declared.
"All honor to the regular army of tho
United States. Never in It history
has it had a stain upon its escutcheon."'
On the way to Gettysburg from
Pittsburg, the president's car was side-
tracted at York lor two hours and dur
ing his stay be made a brief address,
in which be declared again his hope for
the early enactment of a tariff law,
adding:
"I have been called an optimist for
predicting that congress would adjoarn
by June 20. Perhaps I am. But if
the Lord is good to us and the weather
gets hot enough ' in Juso, I think our
national legislator will be mighty
glad to get out of those two close
chambers at Washington."
Four regiments of the regular array
wero hero to participate In the exer
cises. There also was a personal es
cort to the president composed of vet
erans of the regular army who fought
In the Gettysburg campaign. The
president was taken for a drive over
the battlefield. At several points ho
alighted and stood on tho prominences
overlooking the valley below and the
mountains in the far distance.
The ceremonies of the unveiling
were simple. Miss Taft pulled the
silken cord that released the flags
draped about 'the monument. In fall
ing one of the flags caught on a bronza
esglo decorating one of the Inscribed
tablets. A trooper gave the flag a
tug, but it could not be released until
a large hole had been torn in the folds
of the strfpes. After the president's
speech, secretary Dievon presented
tho monument to the L .ttlefield com
mission. After the unveiling tho pres
ident reviewed tho troops. A mounted
battery of artillery which recently
erved in Cuba was a source of much
interest. When tho review was con
cluded, the president hurried to his
train.
PUT LINCOLN ABOVE ALL.
Holllngtworth Protests Against Honor
Paid Jeff Davi.
Washington, June 1. Memorial Day
was generally observed here yester
day. All tho government departments
and practically all the business houses
wero closed in order that tribute might
be paid the nation's dead. The prin
cipal exercises were at Arlington, un
der the auspices of the G. A. It. Every
grave was marked with an American
flag, while flowers were strewn every
where. Appropriate exercises also
woro conducted at the Soldiers' Heme
National cemetery and other burial
places In tho city.
At the Soldiers' Home Represent
ative Holllngsworth, of Ohio, was ono
of the speakers. lie referred to the
recent discussion in the house when ho
protested against placing tho head of
Jefferson Davis on the silver service of
the battleship Misalssippi, declaring
that "it would bo a dark day indeed
for the republic when tho name of
Abraham Lincoln ceases to bo revered
above all other figures of tho civil war
period, or when it shall bo replaced by
that or Jefferson Davis in the h?arta
nnd affections of the American people.
The thought of it is as shocking as tho
first thrill of horror that followed tha
firing on Sumpter."
