Big DROP IN CORN
Shorts Settled Up and Corn Cor.
ner Broken.
FINANCIERS MADE BIG HAUL
Gates-Harris Company Handled the
Deal-Estlmated They Made $780,.
ooo-JuIy Corn Drops 1874 Cents
Farmers Held Responsible.

Chicago, July 16.-The famous John
w. Gates corner in July corn came to
an abrupt termination Tuesday when
1t became known that shorts to the ex.
tent Of good many million bushels
had effected private settlements with
Harris, Gates & Co. and that the deal
was at an end SO far as the steel mag
nate was concerned. The July price
responded to the settlement by a quick
drop of 1870 to 65A. Later it recov.
cred a fraction and closed at 65h,
substantially the price of the cash ar
ticle.
Just how many bushels were subject
to private settlement will probably
never be known, nor is there much
chance that the identity of the big fell
lows in the trade, who doubtless con.
tributed literally to the fortunes Of
Mr.. Gates and the friends associated
with him in the deal, will ever be posi-
lively known.
Manager Scotten would not discuss
the settlement price. The price, how
ever, was not a matter of decided in
terest to the trade generally. With
the knowledge that Monday nights
closing price was 81 cents and the
opening yesterday from 79 to SO, the
consensus of opinion among the out
siders was that Mr.. Gates has demand
ed either so or 81 cents from the peo-
pie who were foolish enough to sell
him corn all the way from 60c up.
1t is estimated by close observers
of the transaction that Mr.. Gates
profit will not exceed s1,500,000. This
amount will be divided up between ten
or a dozen millionaires, who were in
terested in the deal. Mr.. Gates and
his friends have between 1000, 900 and
100000 bushels OF cash corn which
they must dispose of before the corner
can be called settled.
The corner at one time promised
many millions Of profit, and the farmer
whose well-flled cribs line the tracks
Of nearly every railroad entering Chi
cago is held responsible for the dis
appointing ending of the corner. There
were substantial reserves from the
bumper crop of 1900 and the large
yield of 1901. This corn has been held
for a satisfactory market. The farm.
er did not begin to take advantage of
the situation until the price of July
got up in the 70s, and when it finally
reached 80 cents the Chicago market
was deluged with cash corn. For a
while the Harris-Gates people kept
the market cleaned up, but steadily in
creasing quantities began coming in,
and the prospect of loading up with 3
lot of S0-cent corn which they might
not be able to later dispose of at over
60 cents became somewhat appalling.
Without warning they withdrew all
support, settled with the shorts and
closed the deal.
