CHICAGO, July 27.-Corn doomed this morn
ing opening full cent higher than it closed
yesterday afternoon. The bulk of the appreci-
alton came in on the curb this morning after it
became known that receipts were smaller than
expected and that hot, dry weather still pre-
vailed in the corn belt throughout the South
west. After the opening there was an advance
of another cent. The early market was wild and
excited. Prices differed over &c on opposite
sides of the pit The bull manipulators were
helped by report claiming 20 per cent. of
the Kansas crop as worthless and 30
per cent more badly damaged by drought
and bugs. From an opening at 433c there was a
pretty steady advance to 443c then reaction to
433c, and again an upward squirt to 45c. Such To-
cal shorts" as were out in corn were extremely
nervous and rushed to cover in franctic man.
ner. st. Louis was moderate buyer in the corn
pit. The excitement wore away toward noon,
but the close was very firm. Trading was active
enormous amount An advance was made by
wheat. and was fairlywell sustained. The boom
in corn gave local traders an excuse for buying
and outsiders for sending in pretty fair sized or
ders. September opened at 76sc, sold as high
as 77kc then off to Tic and up again to rs 9l6c,
and closed at practically the highest of the
sion. Provisions, especially mess pork, were
