Grain Corner Collapse Shakes Chicago Board of Trade
The Chicago Board of Trade endured a dramatic collapse as wheat corner men failed to meet margins, triggering a market crash. Major houses like J. B. Lyon & Co and Muggers & Peabody were ruined as prices plunged from 1.56 45 to 1.10 per bushel within 24 hours, with Iowa promising 200000 bushels daily to Chicago but unable to sustain the corner.
