CHICAGO, May 2O-Wilder clamor and
excitement over scarcity of grain and pro
visions than was witnessed to-day on
Change could scarcely be immagined in
starving Russia Short sellers, big and
little, were in panic. The price of May
corn shot up cents and closed within l
cent of the top. Corn was agitated from
the start and an immense volume OF
business was transacted. Partridge was
heavily short in July and rushed brokers
from a half dozen houses into the pit 10
get his corn back. The trade had none 10
sell 10 meet so great demand. Corn clos
ed with the trade greatly excited and top
prices pretty well held. The short interest
covered freely and felt rather uneasy at the
situation. There was no great quantity of
wheat offered, though on different "bulges'
some realizing followed The feeling was
decidedly nervous. A heavy trade was
carried on in oats, the market being great
ly stimulated by the strength Of corn and

trade caught the bull fever from tue grain
pits. May operators, after covering short
sales, took the long side for the up turn and
the figures were the highest OF all. Flour,
