Withdrawn from atoro yesterday for city oon-

Tho following grain has been inspected into

whoat; Gao oars corn; 5000 bu No. 1 do,
5000 bu No. 2 do, and $500 bu rojectod do,

cannl 4 cars ryo, car barley. Total CTS
oars). 941, 600 bu.
There vas no more hot corn posted to-day,
and Aho excitement was over. It tranapired that
the way In which, ono man got wind Of the declh~
ration OF hot corn in tho Fulton Elevator two
days before the nows WAS giyon to the public,
was in this wiao: He had vessol loading with
corn at that elevator on Saturday morning, and
= man Watching the proooss Tho corn COM
mcucol to run hot, and his representative ro-
ported the fact to him. It Is not tho buaineas
Of tho Chiof Inspector to report on tho con-
ditton. OF grain In elevator; il 1t wero 30 wo
should probably hare had d little posting not
less than ton days ago.
We nre asked to stato that tho rules for the
inspection Of No. a corn do not require that
thM grade shall be sound, but only "dry and rca-
sonably oloan." It is true that tue rule rohds IN
that way Il and It Is also true that under tho cir
cumstances tho rule ought to be changed, or else
tho speoulatorn should fall back on tho grade Of
rejected, which eujoyn singular immunity from
getting hot In Chicago, Whatever may bo its lin
bilities elsewhere. It ii understood that mer1-
