A CHICAGO A COO CUT OF IU OOSSEt.
Tlte Cliloogo Timet of Thonday last
contnius the following account of the
“corner" in grain got np by certain epeo-
ulatora in that city:
“About the 1st of June a oombination
was organized, extending from Des
Moines, Iowa, (o Chicago, New York, and
a large house in Liverpool, England, to
get control of the corn market and han
dle the balance of the orop of 1878. The
market was carefully canvassed by the
men in this oombination, and the amount
of corn held by farmers estimated as
closely as was possible. In this, however,
as the sequal proves, the operators made
tfd'knisoaleulation. It was supposed that
the stock was much smaller than it really
was, and they were safe in beginning
their mammoth operations. Heal-
ly, the amount of grain held
by farmers at that time was much
g reater than at the same time in 1878.
iowever, they bought an immense
amount for June and July delivery, with
the intention of ‘squeezing’ the ‘shorts'
at the end of the mouth of June. At the
end of June, the receipts were coming in
so largely—over one thousand oarloads
daily—from IllioolB sad Iowa, that the
combination oouldn't afford to “corner”
and advance the prices.
“Thsiatlai ef grabs was too great for
them, and they oouldn't dear themselves
on June transactions without putting a
cheok upon their operations and keeping
prices within bounds. For the time be
ing, therefore, the oonrer was off and
those who were not sharp enough to an
alyze their motives, still held their confi
dence in the honeBty of their transactions.
The combinations held their trades for
July, and then laid their plans to extend
their pnrohases for this month. In other
words, they ‘spit on their hands and took
L a fresh bold,' while their viotima nibbled
f unconsciously about the hook on which
thoy were so soon to be caught. They
were determined to accomplish at the eud
of July what they failed to do in June.
“After the Fourth of July the receipts
dropped off largely, and yet they were
lurger than nt the same time in 1873.
Over four hundred oar loads daily were
coming in, bnt the bulls thought they
could manipulate the stocks and these re
ceipts, notwithstanding they were greatly
surprised st the manner in which the
market held its own. They handled all
the cash corn offered, and at the same
time continued to proaeoute the move
ment, and succeeded in squeezing the
dealers by increasing their purchases for
July delivery and keeping complete con
trol of the market for oash grain.
“Four prominent parties have figured
in this corner. Ohief amongst them, in
this city, is Jack Sturges, as he is famil
iarly known, or ‘King Jack,’ as he may
hereafter be called. He is one of the
leading members of the Board of Trade,
and has always been noted for his exten
sive dealings. He has attended to the
pnrobasisg part of the deal. Mr. I. K.
llrnce, another successful operator, has
had charge of the shipping of grain to
the east. The Unanoial, or rather bank
ing operations of the combination, have
been transacted through the Chicago
branch of the Bank of Montreal. The
handling of the corn in New York city, on
itB arrival there, had been done by Jesse
Hoyt A Co., a house backed by unlimited
oapital.
“Since the organization of this combi
nation, ‘King Jaok’ aqd his associates
have handled something like 16,000,000
bushels of corn, all of which has been
bought, paid for, handled and shipped
from here to New York. The bulk of it
has gone to Europe from New York,
but large consignments have gone to
Montreal on account of parties interested
in the deal. In all probability—although
it is hard to arrive at a correct estimate in
such matters—the financial baoking of
the combination ranges between $16,-
000,000 and $20,000,000. It is one of the
strongest ever formed in the American
grain market.
“Owing to the mistake which these op
erators found they had made in June, and
their consequent relinquishment of their
plans for the time being, other dealers
were thrown off their guard, and contin
ued to extend their line of shorts without
any thought of tbs consequences whiah
would soon overtake them. Many settled
at an opportune ehange of the market;
but, as was shown by the heavy advance
in pries yesterday, a large number of
‘short’ trades are outstanding and unset
tled.
“On Tuesdaymorning the pressure was
first brought to bear. Everything had
then been arranged. Prices opened at
63 cents, and the combination marohed
their forces upon the field. The figures
were buoyed up to 64 oenta on 'Change.
At the afternoon board 65 cents was
and on the enrb in the evening
68( cents. This began to open the eyes
somewhat of the more wary operators,
but they failed to catch the raal meaning
of the transaction until yesterday.
“Yesterday morning oorn opened at 68|
cents, advanced to 78, and dosed at 711 on
'Change, with settlements between parties
outside the ring at 1 to 3 oenta under the
market price. The call for margins to se-
i <Gre trade was very large, and many, who
1 »«re unable to put up, were foreed to set
tle their deals. The market, on the outb,
dosed at 72 cents. This immense advanoe
the price of oorn, os might be expeot-
, threw consternation into the camp of
e dealers who were not looking for suoh
levelopments, and completely disorgan-
■od their forces. It ia estimated that ful-
one-balf of the Board have been ‘oaught
i the turn,’ not expeoting that the com
bination would snoeeed in oarrying out
!>J operations it had on bad.
I ho amount of corn now In store is as
U>wb: Yellow, 12,056 bushels; No. 1,
i3t'bushels; high mixed,298,824 Imsb-
No. », 1,084,046 bushels. Of this
probably four-fifths is held by the
imbinatiou which has brought about this
“It would be difficult to tell just now
<w the matter will turn out at the close
the month. The mine was sprung, and
,,*}•** * a8 made at least two days
‘flier than m usual in corners. It ia be-
ived that the combination will hold their
Twi a ? a ™ n the d# »> Into August, and
ibly to the dose of the orop year."
