Center says partners played Judas to him in wheat scheme
In Chicago court Joseph Leiter testified that his alleged partners, FH Pillsbury and CA Phelpsbury of Minneapolis, conspired to corner wheat in 1898. He said they refused to sign a written agreement, calling it a criminal conspiracy, while he pressed to undersell shorts and shift wheat into his control as the market collapsed. He alleged losses of tens of millions and claimed about 10 to 12 million dollars owed to lenders.
