Respect for the
Law Is Increasing.

Chicago. May 3t.-There was pic
turesque finish today of the alleged
corner in May wheat, but the scene
was not of the sort that was expected.
Instead Of hundreds of excited brol-
ers shrieking at each other in the
trading pit on Chicago" some of the
traders sat down comfortably on the
steps and whiled away the time laugh
ing and joking.
Instead of shorts being squeezed
without mercy. the final price for May
delivery was 104&. d rise of only tx
cents compared with the figures at the
close of the previous days trading.
What kept the market from soaring
was the fact that representatives of
the interests behind the so-called cor
her let go of enough wheat to supply
all demands at a very moderate ad-
vance. Recent activity by the govern
ment in prosecuting illegal combina-
tons Of all kinds and the action of the
Board of Trades directors in appoint
ing committee to investigate all lr-
regularities in the trade here were
credited with being the principal rea
sons Tor the unexpected unloading.
