MAY BAR GRAIN CORNERS.
Chicago Board Of Trade Directors
Want Drastic Change in Rules.

VdtFI OIdSSiS AIiduSS III hN'SSs
Chicago, Nov. 13.-Corners in grains
Chicago will soon be things of the past
The board of directors of the board
of trade has officially declared against
future corners in the wheat pit the
oats pit and the corn pit, 1t has gone
on record against the big dealers in
foodstuffs who run corners in grain
and who, with everything in their own
hands, run prices up to the highest
notch with great profit to themselves
ard very often with ruin for the other
party to the trade.
The board of directors has unani-
mously voted in favor Of a change In
the rules of the board of trade which
Will make corners and manipulation OF
the market an impossibility. 1t is now
up to the membership Of the board 10
say whether they approve Of the action
of the board of directors. The matter
will be voted upon in ten days. Tho
probabilities are that the board Of di-
rectors will be sustained by big vote,
and that the death knell of spectacular
corners will be sounded.
| The change in the rules in effec. Is
this:
If corner in run and there is a de-
fault in the contract the president OF
the board Of trade is to appoint COM
mittee of three members of the board;
this committee to be approved by the
board of directors and this commit =
shall say what the true commercial
value of the commodity in question is
on the day Of the maturity of the con-
tract. The price established by tbs
coEcmittee Will he one upon which SCI.
Elements are to 10 maze.
Another proposed change in the ruiz:
provides for the expulsion of members
or firms found guilty Of manipulating
the markets.

Got Money Both Ways.


1.-THE gigantic nature of these frauds
Is told in records in the custom house.
The records show the amount of sugar
brought to this port in the twenty
years, the amount upon which the trust
paid duties and the amount which 1t
stole. The sugar trust was not only
withholding money 1t should have paid
into the United States treasury but it
was actually receiving checks from the
custom house for the money 1t was
stealing from the government.
There was hardly a single entry
of sugar made by 1t at the custom
house in which refund charge does
not appear and a refund payment of
such an amount as to attract the atten-
ton of the man who was turning over
the governments money to the sugar
trust The sugar trusts system of
robbery was so perfect that it robbed
the treasury going and coming 1t got
the money both ways"
