whisking paper at them or putting

we cant manage. We don't like to kill

The CHICAGO GRAIN CORNER. "A Chi
cago paper says the collapse of the cor.
ner in wheat sent that commodity down
to 81. %, being a decline in "a homs of
40 cents. The widest rumors are afoat
regarding failures, but nothing definite
can be ascertained until pending con-
tracts are settled. A list of IA unsound
firms has been made up, and an evening
paper gives the names of five that have
fallen in the struggle. A competent
Judge estimates at So, 800, 600 the amount
extracted from the "shorts," while a
capital of only $500 was used in the
operations of the corner. The collapse
is due to the refusal of the national banks
to extend AID to the Syndicate. A vet
eran operator declares that the result
will be more disastrous to the Board than
the great fire. The corner was certainly
the greatest ever attempted here. The
wheat market has resumed steady tone,
several heavy spectators purchasing for
cash at Sl15
