CHICAGO. August Io.--As usual ~ late tnere
was q high tension al the opening OF the vine ~

OF a squeeze In corn and a cold wave In tho

for December at sl.0414. and closed strong

August closed at sl.03Le; September, e1.02%.
The leading interest on Change at tho opening
was In the corn trade. The talk u large hold
Tugs Of corn, which do not come out on any adj
vance yet made. has caused moro pronounced
trade on their metal at the opening The most
general belief In that Mr. Hutchinson has q
hand In holding the long corn OF the market,
aud with tho farmers holding the actual stun
back a squeeze would be very natural. The
market started very Eighty. Tho 6rst price WAS
quoted by many around 61ioc. for septeino Dor,
while sales were quickly made AL the way from

In wheat and free selling by leading brokers.
Tho market after~ard rallied t4assc. under

the close, partially on account OF the bulge IN
the other markets and partially on scrouns o.
| good buying. The provision market Was only
