A~Twist~ in Corn.
From the st Louis Democrat, 2st.l
Some of the leading operators are sus-
piciOus that a movement viii be made
ID give the corn market a "twist" be-
fore the close of the month. Rumors
prevail that large purchases have been
quietly made within the past few DAYS,
and the disappearance Of two or three
well-knOwn operators in the provision
end of the room has something to do
with it. The slight decline in prices has
the appearance of a movement to in
duce parties to place an increased line of
" shorts" on the market, and be "geb-
bledn in the end by the combination.
The speculative movement is based on
the calculation that new cOTn will be
worth Soc In this market during the
fall months, and as the average freight
during the winter months is zoe
z 100 lbs, or equal to a frac-
ton over sec bushel, which
would make the cost in New York, ne
CEcSaEN haAultiE tADELSES auleu9 ABOUT D
10000 per bushel, against 81 CSC at
the present time. The "Heathen Chi
nee'' is liable TO make his appearance
any day. Corn is undoubtedly
the cheapest grain relatively on the mar
ket-taking the weight and prices Of
other grain into cOnsideration.-ChicdqO
Inter- Ocean.
In view of the probable truth Of the
it would be a sharp thing to pur-
chase all of the bulk No. 1 mixed
to be had in East st. Louis and be
ready to shove it on the Chicago market
in case the corner really assumed large
proportions. For in case the corner
the price which corn of this
kind can now be bought at will make it
a perfectly safe investment for any
market. In fact, we think no
small amount of money can be
made here by purchasing corn, spring
or a L on East side whenever
they are low, and holding for a possible
Chicago corner. Such purchases should
generally be held here until near the
when, if the corner seems TO be
strong, they should be rapidly pushed
forward to Chicago. Of course a better
than all this would be to intro
luce option dealing Of Change, guard
I'd by fair rules.
