CORN TAXES A JUMP
EXCITEMENT IN THE NEW
 YORK MARKET.
Bulls Also Capture the Wheat Pit and Put Up the Price-Shorts Caught by the Ad-
 vance.

New York, July 12.-There was scene of great excitement in both the wheat and corn markets in New York today, the trade aggregating one Of the largest days totals in a year or more, especially as to corn. Prices jumped 5-S during the day in corn, making 1-2 cents advance for the week. Orders poured into the market SO fast that brokers could scarcely ex- ecute them at the prices desired, and the usually small crowd around the corn ring was increased to such an ex- tent that at times 1t almost riValled that in the wheat pit. The farmers have taken the bull side into their hands and in face of heavy realizing on the part of the professionals have kept prices going until the cry is for 50 cent corn in Chicago. Already prices are so high in the Southwest that far ners are feeding stock with wheat, and unless rain comes very soon, many fear only half the corn crop will be gathered, while only month ago 1t looked as if one of the largest yields on record would be harvested. Where the present bull movement will end de- pends a great deal upon weather con- ditions In the leading corn States.
 Wheat also took an extraordinary jump today and from being in posi- tion almost entirely friendless at once leaped into popularity with the bulls and gave corn a close race for lead- ership in the matter of advance for the day. Prices at New York closed ? 1-2 to 5-S higher than the previous night. Professionals were caught on this bulge in wheat and some of them lost about all the money they have made through selling out long corn to the bull public. After weeks and months wheat has been persistently hammered about from pillar to post by everybody on the idea that the crop would be a record one and more than enough to make up the foreign short age. The result has been a huge short interest, part of which was caught in yesterdays big advance. The remaind- CT is in a state of anxiety as to what the outcome will be. realizing that much greater upturn might mean the covering of big line of, wheat The feeding of wheat to live stock in the Southwest has also become sn import ant consideration. and today bulls were further encouraged by reports that wheat in the Red River Valley is be- ing injured by excessive heat after re- cent wet weather

"Colonies mean navy, navy means

is the logic Of imperialism, and it
