CHICAGO, May 2l.-Corn sold to-day for
Il cents bushel for May delivery, making
one of the greatest jumps ever known in
the Chicago Board of Trade. AT one time
~ cents was bid. The price did not go up
by fractions, but by cents at a time, jump
ing from Is to 20 at one bound. The
bulk of the trading, however, was in July.
The volume of trading in all the pits was
very large. The shorts are naturally re-
luctaut TO confess that they are in need Of
cOmmSeratiOn, and the longs are not in
clined to blow their horns while the deal is
in progress There was some talk about
Partridge being short on corn, but this was
ridiculed. The clearing weather, present
and prospective, was the governing lniiu-
ence in the grain pits. In wheat the
feeling was unsettled and nervous and most
of the advance OF yesterday was lost. Ca
bles were higher, but did not have any di-
rect effect on the market. There was
good deal of realizing, and considerable
"long'' wheat closed out. Oats were fairly
active, but unsettled, and prices had a
liberal range. The Provision market was
active opening and closing dull and was 25a
30 cents lower for July than yesterday.
