WHEAT STILL ROOMING.
EUTEttk Jy i PANIC.
Chicago Marks New High Figures
—Talk of Bull Clique.
[BT JELEI-.KAPH TO THE TRIBUNE. J
Chicago. Aug. Highest prices of the year
!n the renewal of the sensational advance In
v;h<-z.l were reserved for the closing hour to
day, when September «heat sold at $110%.
December at $112%. and May at 51 14%. 4
ct-uie and .". cents ....! the close yesterday.
;.«ie niosEßgts state that there has been a
combined effort of business Interests In Mani

claim Is now made that the yield In the terri

A fletea buying panic struck the Chicago
vrb'eat trade st the openlns; to-day, bat sensa
tional changes i'"- prices are bo frequent these
days that Uk trade and ;h<» public are becom
ing ueed to them.
Whon the market closed «•» Thursday with
the trade pretty well sold out. the September
price was at Si 0G« 2 . and May contracts were
eft to $100^. After the explosion this morning
these nair.a months were nt -SI <•'.<"* and $1 12%,
Coins; 2& and 2% cents higher in thirty seconds.
There appeared to be many causes for the
higher market. though the most potent of them
did cot become operative until the session was
well under way. There were rains In Manitoba
nr.4 the Northwest States, which threatened
dire results In the fields spared by the black
rust, where harvesting is about to begin or is
actually going on. Cables were higher and it was
predicted that Texas millers would soon be In
the market for wheat.
The Northwest started the buying:, and from
that time on then* were relapses, but only mo
mentary ones, and with each recurrent advance
a new high point was reached. Traders were
efiklns after it was over if there is a Chicaso-
Mlrmeapolis clique of big: operators and wealthy
men who place orders to manipulate Liverpool
end Minneapolis for the effect it will have on
Chicaßo. as here alone can a market of sufficient
"volume be created to take the offerings of sev
eral millions of wheat In a few minutes' time.
This suspicion of manipulation gained be
lievers to-day, because the Minneapolis curl>
price before the opening, was lifted from 11 Pa
to 114. and because Liverpool quotations came
«id. higher, following: a two cent break at the
close here on Thursday.
But there was no need to drac manipulation
into the bull campaign. The natural influences
are bad enough.
James Patten, at Minneapolis, telegraphed Ills
house that Carglll. a well known leader there.
paid that his reports from North Dakota indi
cate .';•"• per cent of a harvest left from the blight.
F, W Snow, who knows a fine article of black
rust when he sees it. likewise a ruined wheat
field when he examines it. wound- up a drive of
t'xty miles over Northern Minnesota, and tele
grapned: "Wheat failure is absolutely complete,
heavy straw, but not a pint of wheat to the
Fhock. not one hundred bushels of plump wheat
or one thousand acres."
PRICES CLIMB HIGH HERE.
Advance Due to Eeports of Damage to Crop
by Bust and Rain.
The wheat market here yesterday was the wildest
yet seen on the advance, not so much because of
speculative business, although that was large, as
on account of the extraordinary climb cf prices,
shattering all previous records for the crop by
isven cents a bushel, and forcing September here
to ?114"s by midday, or practically four cents ad
vance over Thursday's close. There was nothing
for sale during the forenoon except when holders
took profits, and buyers of even small lots had to
pay sharp advance* ■•• get any tvhear.
TIM advance was stimulated by higher rallies
from Liverpool, but was due chiefly to the more
<Ic finite reports regarding th« seriousness -if the
damage from rust Lo the growing crop in Manitoba
and to rumors of injury Irom rains in the wheat
.ii^tric■ts of the Northwest. In the late trading the
local market quieted down, the active futures de
'•lining a cent a bushel each In the last hour on
profit taking by holders who v.ere afraid to follow
the market any further. September, December and
May wheat each closed o'- 4 cents higher than on
Thursday, final prices being respectively tl : 6 ,
Jl liU and $1 la.
. »
BULL MARKET IN MINNEAPOLIS.
' Minneapolis. Aug. Reports of rain* all over
the Northwest, making the crop situation, already
deplorable, worse than ever, caused a wild bull
market at the opening of wheat trading to-day.
September touched $1 16&, December went to II 12 3 i,
and May to $1 13^.
TOP FIGURES IN SAN FRANCISCO.
Ran Francisco. Aug. 19.— There was a repetition of
the upward movement in the market to-day. De
cember wheat scored a new high record of $1 r.2'^
per cental. This is one cent higher than the best
price made earlier In the week.

NEW EASTBOLND PRICE&
Steamship Lines Still Cutting
Passenger Hates.
Further cuts in eastbound rates were announced
yesterday, and the situation was complicated
farther by the entry of the German lines into the
fight. Cuts were made by tho American. Leyland.
Allan-State and Hamburg-American line?, and re
ductions will be made by the Anchor Line Monday.
It is expected that the North German Lloyd «lao
v.ill announce a cut 10-day or Monday.
The new tariffs are the following:

Philadelphia first class, »05; St. Louis and St.

ond class, Columbia. $40 to $30; other vessels, S3o to
Allan-State Line— To Glasgow, first Class, $40;
second class. $27 to.
An order announcing a reduction in eastbound
rates wait expected from the homo offices of both
German lines yesterday. No such orders were re
ceived by the North German Lloyd, but they are ex
pected to-day, or Monday, nt the latest. The Ger
man lines have been reluctant to participate In the
present liglit, but have been drawn Into it in self
defence. As the present great desire of the Mor
gan and Continental lines to keep cutting beneath
the Cunard Line has made it cheaper to cross the
Channel and tako passage from an English port
than to go on a German steamer from a Continen
tal port, the two German lines have had to meet
the cuts to retain their share of business.
"It would be scarcely likely." said aa official of
one of the German lines yesterday, "thai our peo
ple would keep up the $75 and Utt rate when Other
lines are carrying passengers for $50. especially in
vessels of tho Baltic. Cedrtc and Celtic type."
One of tho officials of the International Mer
cantile Marine Company said yesterday In regard
to.the light:
It is Impossible to ptedict where the war will
end or Its results, but it probably will be confined
to the passenger traffic. I know nt no one who
seriously believes that it will extend to the freight
traffic. Freight rates are now bo low that there
I* only a small margin of profit, and it la hard to
fee how they could be cut. The big line- now .ire
carrying about all the freight. exc"i>tliiK that
■hipped' In bulk, between the North Atlantic ports,
j.!-.;l greater or less reductions would not secure
another pound of tonnage.
Liverpool. Au*. 19.— 1t is reported here thai the
American and Leyland line* have decided tn 1 ul
their ilrst cnbit: rate* to meet the < unard Line**
recent cuts In eastward bound ratec.

NEW- YORK DAILY TRIBUNE. SATURDAY. AUCKIBT 20. 1904
"PRKSSI'RE" OX LAWSON.
A NEW COPPER CHAPTER.
Why He Exploited Amalgamated—
National City Bank's Part.
Another Instalment of Thomas" W. Lawsons
"Story of Amalgamated" is carried In the Septem
ber number of "Everybody's Magazine." In this
article Mr. I,awEon offers an explanation and de
fence of his connection with the notation of the
Amalgamated Copper Company, and describes In
much detail the part played by the National City
Bank in that operation. The article Is in part as
follows:
When I consented to allow property which Had
cost only J39.OW.UUU to be sola to the public tor
J75.000.000. I did so under pressure which it was
practically impossible for me to withstand. I 00
not think 1 use too strong a word when I say
"pressure." I had been three years advertising to
the world the great merits of "Coppers," and lor
over a year I had announced that when the public
were given an opportunity to participate in the
consolidated "Copper*" it would be upon a basis
most carefully worked out; that the properties in
cluded In the first section would surety be worth
more than the price at which they would be offered
to the public, and that all the power, capital and
ability of the "Standard Oil" were, behind the prom
ise* 1 made. At that time my alliance with "Stan
dard Oil" was close. Nor had aught occurred to
suggest a suspicion of their sincerity or honesty of
purpose. Then Mr. Rogers suddenly notified me
of his purchase of the Daly-Haggin-Tevia proper
ties, and practically ordered me lo put them up on
the tray.
In support of this extraordinary change of plan.
Mr. Rogers urged th« secret wealth of Anaconda
and the great value of the other properties which l
myself had helped purchase, but l bitterly opposed
th« new proposition until there was nothing before
me but to accept the change or break with "Stand
ard Oil." The latter course meant that I must an
nounce to the public that they were In danger of
being tricked, and it was by no moans certain my
warning would carry weight against the denials
and assurance* of "Standard Oil." If I took this
course it meant not only my own ruin llnanolally,
for Mr. Rogers and William Rockefeller could have
called my roan* and wiped mo out completely, but
also that of my friends and allies, who, under my
direction, had Invested their own millions In the
properties concerned. On the other hand. 1 had the
most earnest assurances from Mr. Rogers and
William Rockefeller that the new properties were
worth more than the (73,000,000 at which It was pro
posed to cnpltalize them. They not only gave mo
Marcus Daly's minute estimates of the values and
legitimate possibilities of Anaconda, but consented
to have tii«"m verified by outside experts in whom
I had Implicit confidence, and whose personal ex
amination more than bore out Daly's appraisal.
After this personal examination I felt convinced
that the properties "Standard Oil" Insisted on sub
stituting for those originally Intended for the first
section of Amalgamated were such that the pub
lic, if honestly dealt with, could not possibly meet
with loss in purchasing. But even then I only con
sented to go ahead with the flotation under a dis
tinct agreement, which seemed to me completely
to guard against all contingencies of Jugglery or
deception. The agreement stipulated that all the
profits which an c from the transaction would be
taker, by those to whom they were due. In the stock
of the Amalgamated company, and ;u> part of them
In cash— that the public would be sold only f..uXU>OO
of the $7."..00(t.i«,ii, a.-.d thai 'Standard "oil" and
all associated with "Standard OH" in the
profits would retain the remaining $70,000,000 until
such time as it had been absolutely demonstrated
to tho public that th.> property behind the $75,000 ■• ■
of stock was worth more than the amount it had
been capitalized for. Furthermore. I was also
promised that tli»- 55.000.000 ash to be taken from
Investors would I><- kept intact, and under th<* con
tinuation of my handling Of the market would ni
ways !><■■ available for the repurchase from the pub
1!" of what had been sold to them, at the price
which th< hnd paid for It.
... I knew thai the actu.il cost of thf proj>'Ttfc<*
comprising the First -.Amalgamn ted was -.-...
and that win «-i>lo to the public nt $7.".o"<Um> there
must be a profit of J36.000.0i0. As organiser and
executant of the deal my share in tin' profits was
ft be equal to thai of Henry 1 1. P-m-i's an. l Will
iam Rockefeller, respectively. We were each
to hn •■•■ 23 per rent, the remaining S3 per
cent going t.> others When mv flnnl account
was presented to me i was Rtartled. Notwithstand
ing the "cleverness 1 ' of "the system," tho decep
tion was so obviouK, «o audacious, that the Instant
Mr. Rogers submitted It to me 1 exploded rind <le
nouiiced the tr:in«nctlc:M with such vehemence ami
conviction that within a few minute* there was
forthcoming .i second statement, revising the ac
count, liv which I waa given jus-t double the mount
first tendered. ;ind the ilgurow in both account* run
Into millions yet the amount in th* second ac
count was only one-half the hare received hv my
equal partners, Henry II l Logei ■ and William
Rockefeller, aa l afterward lean
After describing th*» banking connections; of
