%5 s THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: THURSDAY, JuLy 31, 1873, CORNER IN WHEAT. The Market at tho Morcy of a Few Speculators, Prohubility thet the Conspiracy Will Bo Suocessful, The firat ** cornor " of tho year is now In opo- ‘yution, and promises to have n successful onding {for those who ato managing it. The history of the movement, which affaotn what s tochnically known in tho whoat trade as “mollor July," is briofly as follows: Bovoral weoks ago tho partios who organized and have sinco enginoered the *cornor * went into the mnku]t‘, and bought up by thomsolves and through brokors as many op- tions a8 possiblo in No. 2 epring whent (the spoculativo grain), solior to doliver any timo during July. Thoy also bought up ail tho our- rent roceipts of wheat by paying balt a cent por bushel above the market prico for the option, and having thus sooured control of the proper- ty, took it out of the power of the sellors to flll ‘their contracts oxcopt by buying from :tho vory partics to whom thoy were themsolves ‘liable, The ‘‘cornorors” woro succossful n biding tholr doslgns by somotimos solling small ‘quantities of ‘grain in order to provent prices :going up. In this way options woro kept down ‘to a rolativoly modorats prico until within o fow «days, Thon it boonmo known hnt tho market was largoly oversold, with but littlo wheat in .store, and not much coming in daily. Tho “ghort" interest took slarm, snd pricea roso, under the {ncressod compotition of buyers, and ‘from tho fact that but little grain was offered for snlo. Last ovening, at tho closo of business, wheat for dolivory to-dsy sold at 1.82, whilo the eamo article for dolivory to-morrow sold at @114, boing a difforonco of 18 conts por bushol in tho solling valuo of grain for two comseoutive days. It was/l hought probable that the differonco would boi +8till further widoned to-day, ns o congidorable rquankity of thoso July options, variously osti- +matod at from 260,000 to 600,000 bushols, yot ro- imains uncovored. OQur roporters on 'Chiange wero unsblo to got roliablo information as to tho parly engincering ‘the * corner,” but it was gonorally rumored that Mr. J. B, Lyon was ot tho hoad of it, and taking tovenge for tho losses he incurred in recont difcultios with cortain mombors of the Board. Thora aro ronsons for belioving, however, that though Mr. Lyon may have taken advantage of -his “knowledgo of tho situation, ho ia not tho ooginecor of tho movemont. Thero ig vory littlo doubt that the ‘'cornor™ bins beon conducted with Canadian capital in tho Intorest of &m’tlea in Montroal, whoso principal :agents in this city are the firm of William Youn &' Co. The latter wero probably aided by Mr. T. +Chisholm. The ** cornor * promisea to bo one of the most 'guccesaful that bas yot boon run on tho Chicago .Board of Trade, an principn.\l¥ for the resson thot it has beon meocasary to handle but small quentities of grain. Tho’ ordinary history of a ! corner " i a rapld rise in price, bringing for- ward much largor quantities of grain from the country, which ocithor swamps the parties run- ‘ning the '‘corner” bofore tho contracts have aatured, or makes tho gamo a losing ono by {oaying thiom with immonso quantitios of grain on hand, to bo disposed of at much less prices than $hey to pay for it, in ordor 40 keop mup the market to a point whera thoy can squeozo the " shorts.” = Tha ‘operation of the new Railroad law has, to _some msxtent, proventod this swamping in this in- stangce, 88 country holders of graiu wore so much afraid that the law would oporato against thom ‘when It camo into forco on tho 1st' of July that they rushed forward previous to that date nearly -0l tho grain thoy could command. Anothor xeason for the small recoipts has been tho fact 2hat the Milwaukeo market has ranged from 2 to & conts por bushel above Chicago during tho t month, which has drawn to the Gity of ricks all the grain in that largo district of country whiol finl aronnd points for the trado of which Chicago usually compotes with Milwaukeo, Honce, our receipta have boen rincipally drawn from the tract of country ly- g 50uth of = line running due west of Chica- g0, and ns thnt country is not a whent-producing region, In comparison with_that north of tho line, it is casy to underatand how Milwaukoe has recoived over 100,000 bushels por dsy, while baro- 1y 40,000 have come to Chicago. Bome wiso hoads on 'Chiango boliove that the ‘#amo partics who cornered thie July options have 1aid wires for a corner ou Augusit options next month, in a manner varging considorably from the policy which marked their conductof the -presend no, It is thought probable that @hey will attempt to rush up the prico. go high that tho August “shorts " will grow scared at the idea of a repetition of thie July denl, nud willfill inat nn enormous lees during tho firut ton days of the month, and enable the ‘‘cornorors” to sell “ ghort ”* at the samo time to an extent that will permit them to make o largo amount of money on the other sido, by *‘ bearing " tho market . on thoe immenso receipts that are expected dar- .. lng the laat half of August. —_——— CAPITAL PUNISHMENT IN RUSSIA, ¢ Zo the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: Sin: InSaturday’s TRDUNE is an articlo as r to Russia’s torme with Kiuva, it {s stated that + the punishmont of death is to be abolished, as it has been in Russia.

Worlkmistoer then ran into tho atore and got his rovolvor, and eaid, that if Boemis did not leavo ho would shoot him, Boemis told Lim to shoot, snd bo d—d. Magnus urgod Boomis to follow Workmister in and whip him. Beomin nchod upon the suggostion, and was fol- lowod by Magnus.

Rovelations of An Overthrown Oalk, In s hurrioano passing over the Ohio River and down tho Miami Valloy on tho night of tho 4th of July, o eplondid grove of onks on tho ‘' old Andorson farm " of o Mr. Rogers, in the Iattor locality, wns nlmost wholly prostrated, and hiore is an amazing story derived thorofrom and gravely communicatod to the Minmi County Democrat by ono J. F. Clark: * Upon tho morning aubsequont to the storm (Saturdny) Mr. Rogors, in company with o hirod 1nan, proceoded to inquire into the oxtent of the dnmago inflictod upon hmamisus, and the first objectivo point waa the od grove, Tho con- tro troo of tho plat waa o mnoblo onk, tho king over hia follows, and a tree which had stood the ravoges of timo soemingly unacathed for soveral conturies. This treo had been snapped and foll- d by tho storm, Upon cxamining the fallen ginut for tho purposo of ascortaining its worth as rail- timbor, ‘;m-. Rogers made & startling diecovery, ‘This wns nothing loss than tho fact that tho treo in falling had dlsguraod aekeloton! The bones wero disconnected, yollow aa gold with age, and scattored promiscuously over soveral squaro feot of fi“mflgu' The skull was almost intact; all tho teoth save two—molars—iwera still in' their Elnuuu, and thoro was a scar on tho loft pariotel bouo which looked like the momon- to of somo ficrco cavalry charge, The humerus of thoright arm was Bhbattored, and save tho throo dofoots just montionod the skeloton, when put togothor, was without blomish, 'Tho tree in falling, I should have mentioned, was ront asun- der—a_task not diffioult of .accomplishment whouI refor to tho fact that an oxamination found that at somo romote dato the vory heart of tho osk had boon cloft by lightnivg, Froma ugat twenty foet from Lho ‘ground upwards to the first groat fork—a distancoe of ton foot—n hollow éxtonded, and from this cavity the skelo- ton Lad boon hurled. If wo but know who ho was, thought my informaut, Mr. Iogers, nud, strango to eay, a fow minutes lator tho twain digoovered that tho troo had amlso dis- gorged o thrilling history.
