PORK TO ENRICH SIR THoMAs.
His Corner Will Probably Net Him
$3.50 600

New York Herald: When Sir Thomas
Upton comes across the Atlantic with
new Shamrock, built to aid him in r
second attempt to lift the cup" It Is
extremely likely that he will be able TO
pay all the expenses of his new venture
with profits gained I'm commercial con-
tests with Americans. His corner in pork
bids fair to be so successful as to enable
him to make Americans pay for his next
yacht racing effort. and perhaps even for
a third one. should the second be unsuc-
cessful.
Men in the provision trade all over the
country are watching Sir ThOmass trans
actions in pork as keeniy as the public
watched the struggles of the Shamrock
and the Columbia when the cup was last
at stake. But il is in Chicago that tho
corner eXcites the most interest, for Chi
cagoans viii find il necessary to pay the
piper when the dance ends.
They have sold the pork market heavily
short. while Sir Thomas has quietly snap
ped up their offerings. and they have
attained the unpleasant position of men
who have sold a good deal more of a
commodity than they can beg, borrow
or purchase, and are faced with the
necessity cf covering their contracts in
eighteen more days or making private
settlements with the original buyer In
der the influence of those conditions pork
has already jumped up about 80 Is per
cent. or four dollars a barrel. And the
squeeze of the shorts is not yet ended.
1t now appears that Sir Thomas has so
carefully laid his plans as to provide
for the disposal of his purchases without
bearing the market TO any great extent,
thus avoiding the danger which menaces
all manipulatorS of a corner.
The shorts are believed to have sold
at least 1000 barrels of winter packed
mess pork. Assuming that he has bought
or contracted TO buy only this amount
and il may be that his purchases ara
much larser-his prospective profit may
be reckOned to a certain degree, as he is
credited with having bought at an aver
age of $l2 a barrel.
The price is only SIG a barrel now.
and should he unload at that figure IL
would net him not loss than $500 900 profit.
But some old traders say that under
present conditions. when Chicago pro-
vision men have contracted TO sell, at
much less than prevailing prices, more
than twice as much pork as they possibly
obtain, pork may be forced much higher.
If he can settle his contracts at a basis
of SO profit on the barrel his total gain
Will be three-quarters of a million.
