Chicago, Aug. 7.—Everything traded In on the board of trade floor had a genu ine bull market today—corn on its own account, wheat and oats and provisions as a matter of sympathy. It was a scram ble among. shorts In ell the pits a» to who would get under cover first. In wheat, prices were made regardless of receipts, shipments, cables, or any kind of statistical information. On the curb an advance over last night's close of 51 % took place, the opening being with the grain well In hand nad the close allowing a further appreciation of almost 2 cents. The motive came entirely from the strength of corn. The cash wheat market woo active, prices keeping m touch wltn the futures and gaining rela tively. September wheat opened from C5H to G6%, sold to 57%, closing at 57%, 2>« cents over yesterday, i-Vw strength, excitement and activity, today’s corn market has not been sur passed in years. A gain of almost cents was made In the September futures, and about 6 cents in the May.

From the'Worth Local. Mr. 8. R. Hancock reports a stmnge cane of rtublca among a herd of hogs be longing to 'his mother. About six weeks ago a mad dog came up to Mr. Hancock'i house during the night, and, nftcr nar rowly escaping being bit by him, Mr. Hancock shot him. Next morning he dis covered that two hogs belonging to his mother showed signs of having been bitten by the dog. Five weeks afterward,' or a week ago, one of the hogs showed strong symptoms of madness and was put In a pen, whero It died In three days, with horflble con vulsions. The other hog also went mad and was at once killed. Now still an other of the herd shows symptoms of the same disease, and is being closely watched. k DECIDEDLY BENEFITED.
