ANOTHER CORN FURRY.

The December Future Jumps Up Fully
IL 3-Sc During the Day-Corn Helps Up
the Other Markets, Which Were Other
wise Dull and Dropping.
CHICAGo-The corn pit was the center of
interest on the Board of Trade to-day. and a
fever of excitement prevailed throughout,
with lightning changes and unusual strides
upward. In less than two hours from the
opening The price of December or year corn
had advanced over lie from the opening,
with the excitement and strain at times
very intense.
1t had been understood for some time that
there WAS TO be a bull deal in December.
The short interest was believed to be heavy,
and, with little OF the contract grade in this
market. current receipts of that grade
would enable the longs to squeeze the shorts
to almost any extent December closed
yesterday at 4s5sc, and started at 4s34c to-
day. But few dashing operators had got
control OF the market on the long side, and
had got the old November clique short, and
intended to squeeze them numerically.
This started the whole crowd of shorts to
buying at once, and. as there was little for
sale, = scene of wild excitement followed,
prices going up &c at Il clip until 60c was
paid-an advance of ll3sc from yesterday.
The market was very feverish with fire.

4i3sc to day. and advanced to 471sc closing
at 4i5Lc- May, which closed yesterday at
43sic. opened at the same figure and sold to
Al &C and closed at 1896.
Wheat opened rather weak on the failure
of foreign markets to respond to yesterdays
advance here. May opened lower at $3.50,
though 500. touching 99c. Later, on the ex-
citement in the corn pit, wheat became
strong and May sold up steadily to 995sc.
This was followed by reaction when corn
weakened, and cables coming lower wheat
weakened and May fell away to $3.50, at
which it closed easy. What little news
there was To influence values was lost sight
OF in the excitement in corn.
Oats were quiet but strong most of the
day, chiefly owing to the furry in corn, and
closed with an advance of &c for December,
bus unchanged for May.
Hog product. were weak on the estimated
receipts of hogs ut the yard being 81, 900. O..
ID, a0J more than were looked for, with prices
&c lower. The early weakness and lower
prices for products, however were subse-
qucntly counteracted by the advance in
corn and Il partial rally followed, but the
market weakened again later and the close
was near the bottom prices OF the day and

closing figures of yesterday.

NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-There was further ac-
tivity in the drygoods market, though quiet
still prevails In many quarters Cotton
goods, bleached and brown were in demand,
an expected advance in some Western
freights timulating the movement. Consid-
cradle sales have been mace in some me-
dium bleached shirtings, though the most
popular makes are still without any
special activity, buyers apparently await
cases. The tone of the market was felt to
have improved. Prints were more active,
Southern buyers making selections freely.
Indigo blues were active and a good bust
ness was doing in shirting prints.
