litical causes as for the high rates of carr

made gold scarce so it could not be sold

not the means to buy it.
Governments are decidedly ou the rise,

—The "cerner" on corn has expired by
"the statute of limitations." It did not end
with the month of September. and was,
in that respect, an exception to the rule
governing corners: The whole affair was
managed with consummate skill. The ope
aators were able'to control the movement
&Corn along the canal, making it excep
tionably light i and so' .np their
agencies among the brekers that no one
could suspect any comierted! action. It was
only when the revelation 'was made , on
Wednesday morning last that a consulta
tion had been held on . the that
even
ing, that the full plan was understobd, and
the victims saw how they bad been-en
snared.
The operatlons have beans° well man
aged that it is difficult to Oscertain, even
now the magnitude of the transactions.
including the 450,000biliheli called on buy

were probably creditors on differences
aveighteon cents per bushel on 1,100,000
bushels, or about $200,000, to effect which
they were obliged to keep dontrol of 275,-
000 bushels of receipts at a net loss of $40,-
000, and to expend another $lO,OOO in com
missions a?,d for interest. The not profit
would, therefore, have been about $150,000
if all the diffinences had ' been paid.—Chi.

—The Chicago Tribune. of. Friday, says:
The culmination of the "corner" in corn
today. as was intimated yesterday, has

"short sellers." The atlitit, bow, er, is
not (Untie hands of thoso Who originated
it. They hold a large adiount of corn
which they must necessarily ship or sell
betbre long.
Though this is by some announced asue
cessful - corner," there is reason to believe
that, as far as profit to the operator is con
cerned, itwill not only prove a failure, but
will finally result in a serious loss to those
who brought it about. The demoralizing
effect of this grain gambling on all legiti
mate trade has been often discussed, and is
wall known. The banks—who are always
the most uncompromising in its denuncia

aiding it, knoWing that the capital loaned

The market for Petroleum has again
been considerably excited during the week

business has been comparatively light.
During the early part of the week, the mar
ket,.ivas rather weak . and prices, particu
larly for spot (Refined) ruled lower; how
ever, act. onger feeling has develop -d itself
and prices have rkovered. Considerable
anxiety was Manifested. about .delivery
day (the first of the month) as it was
thought some of th shorts would lit be
able to come up to the scratch: so far us we
could earn. hlwever. all the "calls" were
promptly met. and right on the heels of
thisspot oil fell elr fit iy hair a cent, hut :is
has already heed intimated; the in:.rket
soon reacted. The recr!i pt.% of Crude .
