THE GREAT SQUEEZE. Corn Forced up to Eighty three Cents by the Bull Clique. The Iron Grip of the Manipulator Continues Perplexingly Finn. Some Speculators Predict That Sep tember Will Sell at a Dollar a Bushel. Great Interest Centering in the Wheat Pit Again and the Amount of Trading Increasing. Share Speculation Light— York Cen '. tral Gains a Point— Gould's Hold ings. CHICAGO. Special Telegram to the Globe. 1 Chicago, Sept. 29. — The feature on 'change to-day was the continuation of the corner in September corn, which was advanced by the manipulators to a point 8c above the open ing price, 4>£c above the close on Saturday and 3c above the highest point it has hereto fore reached during the. present corner. Fresh receipts were very heavy, but it is un derstood that all the cash corn was taken care of by the clique. Wheat was the cereal most largely dealt in and the course of prices was rather disheartening to the bulls, though they knew that the decline is but a temporary and healthful reaction. In the afternoon the grain markets firmed up somewhat, wheat advancing }{@%c. Provisions were rather tame. The closing prices for the October options on the afternoon board were wheat 78Ji'c, a decline of %c as compared with closing sales Saturday; corn ~>7}{c, p.n ad vbucc of J£c; oats 2"»*£e, a decline of j£c; pork unchanged at $17. Lard 10c lower at $7.30, and ribs unchanged at $10.20. In the wheat market there was a sharp re action, but one that should not be viewed with surprise by any class of operators, for where there has been a steady and natural Vance of 5 or Cc there are always a gjod many operators who got iD on the ground floor who are anxious to realize, and a large amount of such offerings are pretty sure to break the market a cent or two. The marks' opened firm under favorable foreign advices. British cables are said to be firm and higher, with showery weather, and a further advan a of fld per quarter was quoted for Callfc-aia and American red winter off coaet. Farm ers' deliveries in England for the past week were a little heav ier than for the previous week. New York and St. Louis were both lower and the receipts here were quite light There was, however, less demand than was ex pected and the offerings on the part of those who desired to realize were quite free, which resulted In a downturn in prices that con tinued throughout the regular session. On the afternoon session there was a fair de mand and V" '-.<• of the decline was recov ered. There was a fair shipping demand for low grades, but No. 2 was scarcely called for except for future delivery on speculative account. October opened at 79c, sold to 7'.t' 4 c, and then, under free offerings, down to ,7 ■ ,c, closing on the regular session at i7 7 :,'e, and on the afternoon board at 78J^c. November was the favorite deal and opened st 80J£c, sold up to sic, then down 'o ?o%c, and doted on the morning board at .7.9^c and the afternoon at 80J<c. No. 2 spring was weak and closed %c lower at 7~.V"7'.1;.'\ l e, and No. 3 was steady at 63c. Red winter Was sparingly offered, and No. 2 rejected at 54c. Kent, Hutchlnsou and the Adams brokers were the heavy nellers, Hutchinson alone letting go 100,000 bushels. Bald a broker on the bull tide to-day; "The general reeling if still strong concerning the fu- Mire of wheat, both here and at other places, but the heavy lon^s may take advantage of this fart and onload a lot upon the crowd with the expec tation of buying it back at lower figures. Every advancing market to be healthy and natural nhould have Its weak cpots and day*, and nothing definite can be predicted of the future when the**; occur." In corn, of course, the interest centered In the September deal. The opening was at 7.V, 4c below the close of Saturday, but the corner brokers, with Mcllcnry at their head, « ion began their old tactics of bidding up ie price, and at the close the figures were, at 8:! c, with McHcnry ottering to either buy or sell at that price. The snorts, however, didn't seem to take bold very readily. The receivers held out still for the highest price, and the 1,000 cars of contract grades received were disposed of at from 78c to 80c. The Septem ber deal win close to-morrow noon, and there is yet another day's receipts to be heard from, it being estimated that they will amount to between 750,000 to 1,000,000 bushels. The clique had to put up 1358,800 to take in to-day's receipts, and from 1500,000 to $1,000,000 more will be required to carry the deal to a successful issue to-morrow noon. The price Is now at the highest point reached, and the manipulators do not seem to lack for money. The short interest now Out must bo something enormous, or the clique could not afford to keep prices up. A few 6hoits settled this morning, but more seem deter mined to stay oul until the end. Prominent and reputable boar» arc of the opinion that to-day's operation* left the bears out of pocket and that another day will make them "squeal," but those (radars more ballisbly Inclined took a very different and much more cheerful view of the situation, at least apparently.

Who is there indignant now who has not either suc cessfully or unsuccessfully attempted conic sort of proceeding themselves, Eh? The pres ent corner has revived the old question of whether short • sellers of produce have higher rights than Ions; buyers. People who are not in the market, but who are interested in the argu ment only us they are in any discussion where the disputants are very much in earned should remember that interested parties are speculators, all of them. On the one side are speculators who have sold, expecting to manipulate prices down; and on the other, speculators who have bought, and- who have sacceded in manipulating prices Dp. It can also be shown that all of those who are now trying to incite boom sympathy for them- 1 selves, because they were caught short, and are being squeezed, have, 'it one time or another heretofore, as longs and squeezers of the mar ket, ridiculed the very argument they tnetn p«»lves are now using. If disinterested people will think carefully they will see that it is hard to decide whether short sellers are, or are not, entitled. to any sympathy. Is not a corner the legitimate and best cure for reckless overselling?' Just as stimulated production, great speed in marketing produce, and an overwhelming mar shaling of corn, or wheat or lard or toga ere the legitimate cure of a deliberate comer." Oats ruled steady and strong the most of. the day, but closed about J£c lower than on Saturday. There was but little stuff on sale, and prices fluctuated within narrow limits". The closing prices were 25;-jc for October and 2 ( Jc for May. In the provision market there was less do ing aud the market ruled Irregular. Offer ings were moderate on speculative account, and the demand not urgent: Eastern mar kets ruled quiet and unchanged, and foreign advices showed a weaker feeling in lard, Liverpool quotations being reduced 9d. Here prices declined s@loc early, but ral lied somewhat near the close. The last quo tation being $7.30 for October and $7.V2}£ for November, a decline of 10c. At the j close prices were the same as on Saturday. Owing to the big run on the top of heavy : receipts last week and a Hebrew holiday the cattle market ruled rather dull. Among the fresh receipts were nearly 800 cars of Texan s and western rangers. Range cattle were quoted lower, although the amount of busi- i ness transacted was ban sufficient to make a market or establish quotations, but salesmen generally looked for a decline of 15@20c. There were many prime droves of westerns among the stock from Montana aud Dakota. The hog market was fairly active with lit tle or no variation in prices as compared with the dose of last week. Rough and com mon packers sold at about $4.90(55.10; fair to good mixed $5.25@5.50. The bulk of the packing grades sold at about $5.40@5.50.

The changes during the last hour were unimportant, until a few moments before the close, and the volume of business exceedingly light.

PAUL DAILY GLOBE, TUESDAY # MORNING,SEJm^JSEE 30, 1884. AROUSING MEETING Of the Fourth Ward Cleveland and Heudrlcks Club. : '£&>i liinging Speeches by President Normandin, lien. Johnson, Jiulsro Hall and Ar thur G. Otis Esq. The Democrats of the north part of the Fourth ward held a largo and very i-nt!iusias- ' tic meeting last night at <ii:derinau"s on the corner of Farrington and University ave nui?s,undi;r the auspices of the Cleveland and Hendricks club. This club was organ ized by Mr. Normandin, who is the presi dent of it, and it is largely owing to his per sonal efforts that the Democracy of that part Of town .is so well organized. There were between five and six hundred people pres ent, all of whom were earnest and enthusias tic. : . ■ Ml.. xop.MAxnix, the president of the dub, stated that as pres ident of the club it was his duty to open tin meeting. He felt very much rejoiced to tee so many present, and promised to do his best as president, and to sec to it that every thing pertaining to the club was managed in a straight forward manner. He then intro duced , GENERAL JOHN-' V. who began his • speech by giving a his tory of the organization of the Re publican party, stating that it sprung from the ashes of the old Know Nothing party, and identified Mr. Blame as one of the original projectors of it — such, Mr. Blame did all he could to have every foreign born citizen disfranchised. He was willing that they should contribute their time and money to build up the country, but wished tli deprive them of any voice in say ing who should control the couutry. Now he is their great friend and asks them to support htm. The general then gave his at tention to the Mulligan letters, and showed that Mr. Blalne'e correspondence showed his an fitness for th" position of president He then proceeded to Illustrate the difference between the parties on the tariff, and de nounced the use of the term "free trade" as not representing the stand of the Democratic party on that question. Both parties believe in protection. The Republicans wish a tariff so high that bnrdensome taxation will pro dace a surplus of one hundred millions an nually, tins taking from the people one hun dred millions which should he left in their pockets. The Democrats wish to protect only to the extent of the necessities of the government honestly and faithfully adminis tered. The general then traced up the political record of the two candidates, showing that the election of Cleveland was ■ necessity in or der to wrest the government from the greedy hand of corruptionists and stock jobbers. The general then went on to state that when the nominations were made the Republicans felt sure of every northern state, admitting that New York and Ohio were the only states In doubt. The doubtful states are now very ict ins. New York, Ohio, Wisconsin, Sew Hampshire, Michigan, lowa, Connecti cut and New Jersey are now doubtful, with the chances in favor of Cleveland. This is a favorable circumstance for the Democrats, as the opposing party wiil have to divide their speakers and money to such an extent as to cripple their efforts. They cannot, as in 1830, hurl all their money in one state and carry it by soap. The people stand a fair chance to have their unbought suffrages count as the sentiment of the coun try demands. The general gave the most encouraging account of the prospects of the party di rived from the most reliable sources, showing very clearly that the people fully understand the corrupt record of Mr. Blame and the admirable record of Mr. Cleveland, and that they will elect Cleveland on Nov. 4. The general then introduced Judge Hall, the son of the late Judge Hall, of the district ...,..f jiixiF HALL'S nEMAHKS. The speaker, after explaining that he Lad not had an opportunity to prepare himself to speak as In- would like to, opened by de claring that during the years the Republican party had been in power there had been no parallel in jobbery, thieving and cencral rascality. In this con viction he reviewed with much severity the Mulligan Fisher letcrs, the star route busi ness and many other matters that have occurred daring the Hr^ubllcan administra tions. The publican party had at last reached the climax of degradation by putting In nomination Mr. Maine. He declared that it was a notorious fact that time and again the Republican papers throughout the whole country had denounced him, bat now since he int.! been made the candidate of the party they were compelled to eat their own words and were now all -■ singing his praises. Maine has started out with two Ideas, lir.-t to deal out sweetness to the Irish, and, second, taffy to the Germans. Mr. Biaine's record when he was secretary of state gave the lie to any claim to favor at the hands of either the Irish or Germans. Mr. Blame has been in congress for twenty years, and, as it seemed to' him. had all that ■MtyP been engaged in some scheme to make invni-y for himself. He has helped to put bills, through congress for railroads and oth r corporations, and used his of- Jkial position to carry them through. When that Irish patriot, Parncll came to this country Blame was invited to attend an Irish meeting, and did not even nuke, a reply to the invitation. He coun selled all to go to the potts and work and vote for Cleveland and Hcndricks. ARTHUR G. OTIS was the next speaker. He opened h's re mark* by saying that be bud been n the city but ibout a year, and was unknown, personally, to the audience. After compli raentlug the remarks bums by Gen. John ion and Judge Sail, he argued that the peo i pie ought to understand ami discuss politics. it well known that there are two parties. For over sixty years the Democratic party was in the possession of the government During all that time that party gave to the people or this country a steady, economical government. After eulogising the long and fuiUiful administra tion of affairs by the Democracy the speaker f Breed all to go to work faithfully for the elec- j lion of Cleveland and' Beudrleks. Grovcr Cleveland is well kn >wn. lie never filled an office that he did not honor. The people 'of Buffalo were suffering from various causes the evils that flow from a poor government of the affairs of that city, and caused Mr. Cleveland to run for mayor. He consented to the use of his name and was elected. Tlie consequence is that be gave the people of that city the best gov ernment they ever had. He was subse quently elected governor of the state and to this day he i.* performing the duties of that oilict' with the utmost faithfulness. How is ! it ob) the other side I Tue Republican party is a corrupt party and never gave the country ' anything like an honest administration. The ad in in Ist rations of Grant and Haves were full of star route and other similar cor ruptions. This was notoriously • the characteristics of the administrations of these two men. He declared the candidacy of Blame to be an Insult to the American people. Be Is a man of no busi ness or profession whatever unless politics may be considered a business or a profes sion, and yet this thrifty politician has aiii.f-'od wealth, and to-day is worth over $3,000,000. The speaker "then referred to the Mull!g»n letters and said that Blame was a corrnpUonist of the very worst character. In this connection he read'portions of several of what are known as tLe Blaine-Mulii^an letters. One letter, dated October 4, l&Cj written to Fisbcr In regard to the Little Rock railroad, was read in fuil. This letter of Biaine's gives a history of the trkkerv Biaine resorted to in retting matters that be was interested in through congress. Tbe bill for renewing the land rrant to the state of Arkansas for the Little Rock road was reached in the house of repre sentatives and B!aine was speaker of the Lou? e. Julien, of Indiana, soacht to kiD it by offering as an amendment the Fremont Ei P*ao scheme. Roots and others from Arkansas did not know wtat to do. Finally Root* went to Blame and asked bin, as speaker, what on earth he could do. Blame told him Jalien's amendments were out of order, because not eermain. . Roots had not confidence enough in bis parliamentary knowledge to make the point, but he told Blame that Gen. Logan was opposed to the Fremont scheme and would proba bly make the point. So Blaiue, the speaker of the house of representatives, sent his page to Gen. Logan with the suggestion, and . he at once made the point,and Blame sustained it. This is the story that Blame himself gives of the transaction in thn letter referred to. The speaker denounced it as utterly corrupt, and read many passages from other letters calculated to sustain his declarations that such actions were done for private gain and in no respect fbr the public good. Mr. Otis was very, severe in his j denunciations of such bold, corrupt proceedings. From other letters the speaker read passages, one In par ticular he dwelt upon, where Blame gets into a dispute with Fisher about the amount due him for .. his . corrupt inter ference. Blaiue asserts he has not been paid in full the amount due, which he claims is 119,000. He admits the payment of *6,000, but he wants more. In another place he claimed S7o,ooo,and §31,000 due from these corrupt arrangements, making $101,000 in one transaction. Blame is worth to-day 53,000,000. How did he get it? He has no business. lie baa no profession. , He was poor when be went into congress twenty years ago. He never earned that money. He never came honestly by it. lie obtained it by corrupt means, such as ought to consign him to the penitentiary. If Blame is 'elected we may as well bid good bye to honor and honesty. This is the man that is now hippudromiug about the country and visiting the tomb of Garficld, still prac ticing the tricks of a demsgogue to catch votes. He declared that Blame was not a man that was entitled to any consideration, from the Irish especially. He is a hypocrite and cannot be trusted. .., . This closed the speaking, and with many and long continued cheering the large audi ence gradually departed to their homes. P. Lori'.lard A Co., of New York, have entered suit against Legged & Meyers, to baccoists, for un infrinsrement on their tin tag trade-mark. Also asking for an injunc tion, and an accounting and transfer of the profits made by Leggett & Meyers on their tin tag grade. " TEST YOUR BAKjNGFOWDER TO-JAY!
