THE CORNER FAILED.
Coster & Martin, Who Attempted to Squeeze
Chicago Shorts, Forced to the Wall.

CHICAGO, May 31.-Coster & Martin made
. voluntary assignment In the county court
to-day. The firm is composed of Charles
Coster, VIM. II. Martin, Alfred T. Martin
and David J. jackson. and carried on ex-
tensive operations on the Board of Trade.
Morris Hagle was appointed assignee, but
no schedule of assets or liabilities was
made. The firms attorney declined to make
any statement to-day regarding the firms
financial condition. 1t was even said that
the senior member of the firm did not
know the actual amount of the liabilities
of the firm. but an effort would be made to
satisfy all creditors as far as possible. The
failure was directly due to an attempt to
corner corn for the month of May. For a
week they had held the price in the neigh
borhoOd of 40 cents. To-day being tho last
of the month was settling time for all the
shorts, and the price of the article opened
at 81. Great quantities of corn. however,
had been rushed into Chicago from all di-
rections since Saturday. and IL soon became
evident that the firm would be short of the
necessary funds to maintain the corner.
The bottom dropped out. the price recedIng
to 90 cents within the space of two
minutes, and the over-Zeal0us operators
were swamped.
