A Corner on Corn.

CHICAGO, Illinois, September 22.-
Eighty cent corn and seventy five cent wheat
was the anomaly presented on Change, to-
day. Whether the relative values OF these CO.
reals ever before presented such a strange con-
trast Is precisely known, but the present
condition of affairs is acknowledged to be very
unusual. Early in to-day's trading, there
was n strenuous effort made by the 'short"
interest to cover their September sales; but
there were no adequate offerings, until the
very pinnacle Of high prices was touched, 50
cents. At these figures, there were offers to
settle. The market then dropped of to as
cents, rose again to 40 cents, and closed Mt
that figure, In the interest OF the
dealings of the day. The present high
figure has apparently killed all new
speculation. very few operators having the
courage TO create any longer short Inter
est than now exists, eveurat these maximum
figures. The extent Of the deal also appears
not to be clearly understood, nor is II krown
whom the parties are that are now in supreme
control OF the market, but whoever they may
be, they have thus far demonstrated their
ability to retain complete control and name
any figures which they choose for the new de-
liveries. The claim Il made that the short In.
tercst IL still sufficiently laree to advance the
price TO n dollar buslcl II they desire to do
so. The latest quotations in tho afternoon
were 1Sc September. 591sc October, 4Sc No

though he wished it could.
After spasmodic hug she looked up in his

He said she was right.
She asked his pardon, and he told her not
to mention it.

She smiled a sweet, sad, blushing smile
and went out into the wide world, while the
traveller walked to the hotel with the others
They asked him if it didn't make him feel
ashamed to have such a mistake made, and
he said no, it was all right. He said Of course
it might look queer, but those things occurred
very often with him, as it would occur with
any fine looking man. Besides, the girl pro-
bable enjoyed it.
Then they asked him why he did not wear
his diamond breastpin on such trying occa-
sions. He looked at his shirt front and it
was gone. While he had been allowing her
to play the daughter she had burglarized his

"Dear, dear heart At last" he said
"thou hast owned thy precious love
My joy My life!'
A smile of evil triumph spread over
her face, as she nestled in his arms
pushing him gently toward the dungeon
steps. And suddenly it came like a
revelation to the true Usula. breaking
the spell that held her silent-that this
was the spirit of the wicked abbess
and with one loud cry she rushed for
ward to tear the guilty thing from her
husbands arms; but her fingers
clutched only empty air; for at that
cry the ghost vanished and Usula, close
pressed to her husbands heart, sobbing,
told him of the peril he had escaped.
"And l was SO happy, thinking that
thou didst in very truth love me, sweet
Usula."
$50 I do, Robert" she whispered
$50 haveI loved thee this many long
day"
With his arms thrown lovingly
around his wife, Lord Craven turned

thronged the passage, having come in

ing cry. He told them how, walking
in the plaisance yonder, white hand
had beckoned to him; and how, en-
tering the passage. he had met
and held converse with ghost who
took his dear wife's form to betray him,
and who would have surely sealed his
doom, but for the good Lady Usula's
bravery.
Come hither, child" said my lady,
turning to the blushing, trembling, tire
maid, here is the collar promised
thee; and one more brave even than
that | said should be thine"
Usula unclasped the glittering dia-
monds from her slim white throat and
fastened them round the girls soft
neck.
Some of the servants, using their
lanterns, found that the steps leading
to the dungeon keep had mostly rotted
away. so had my lord fallen down, he
would have persisted to surety.
Lying on the dungeon door was a
heap of human bones.
I'VE will give them Christian bu-
rial, said my lady; for they are no
doubt the bones of that poor youth the
wicked abbess murdered"
And from the hour the poor skeleton
was buried, the siren of Norlake Abbey
appeared no more.
