BAN OF COURT ON CORNER Judge of Tllinois Tribunal Grants Injuno- tion te Prevent Oats Deal. SHORTS UNABLE TO DELIQER CEREAL First Time in History of Board of Trade that Dealers Who Are Short Have Resorted to the Courts. CHICAGO, July 30.—The ban of the courts Bas been placed on the corner in July oats. On the application of Waite, Thorburn & Co., one of the firms heavily short in the July option, a temporary restraining order ‘was granted by Judge Chytrs in the su- perior court, prohibiting James A. Patten and associates from continuing a corner in new July oats and from bidding up the price of the cereal or ‘calling for further margins, This is the first time in the history of the Chicago Board of Trade that dealers who are short have resorted to the courts to assist them in a dilemma like the pres- ent and the injunction came as a declded surprise, although drastic measures had been threatensd to prevent heavy loss. The injunction runs agalnst Carrington, Patten & Co., Patter Bros. & Bartlett, Frazier & Co. Default on 3,000,000 bushels of short new July oats, 1 s and action by the Board of Trade are seemingly the inevitable results of the grantiug of the restraining order. Cornered and unable to secure new July oats wherewith to meet their con- tracts, the dealers who are short, appear to have practically thrown up their hands. ““We have nothing left to do but to de- fault,” sald ome of the. unfortunates to- day. *“Those In control of the corner will not sell; but tell us to go into the pit and buy. If we should do that the prices would g0 up into the clouds A dollar a bushel could easily be exacted, as the receipts of standard new oats will not 81l our con- tracta.” Statement of Ca Waite & Thorburn, the firm that re- quested the injunction, issued the follow- ing statewent tonight in explanation of the course they have taken: For a year o1 two there has been a re ular lemic of manipulation and tempted corners in the market on the Chi- cago Board of Trade, which have Inflicted immense injury on the legitimate grain in- terests of this city and in the country trib- utary to Chicago.
