CHICAGO. Jan. l9.-The wheat market to-
day opened sc lower for February and steady
for May, but there was weak feeling, and
sellers were in the majority. The air was
filled with mingled rumors and fears at the
East, and the tone was partially reflected
Liverpool was quiet and Mark Lane wa;
"quieter." Farmers deliveries OF wheat in
England the past week were reported al
S0,600 quarters. The receipts here to-day
were 65 cars, against $50 Saturday, but the
snow blockade explains the shortage. There
were fresh reports of damage to growing
wheat at the West. February and May botE
declined lc from the opening, but reacted a
little towards the close. The afternoon
market was very strong and active, advancing
l5s.a laC over the lowest figures of the day.
and closed nearly at the outside figures. The
strength IN corn continues, and rather IN
crcases, the situation being one OF compare
tive scarcity. Liverpool was strong on corn.
and ld per Genital higher. Inc shipping de-
mand Is also good, while the available supply
remains small. notwithstanding the late rise
I'M the price. The opinion Is growing that the
official estimates of the last corn crop have
been too large. Information from the North
west is TO the effect that the supplies Of corn
are very light in Western Iowa, Nebraska
and Dakota, the yield not being more than
half Of the estimate. There Is little corn in
crib. and farmers are selling scarcely any.
They are feeding it TO stock, and some Of
them are compelled 10 buy. Under influences
ike this many are disposed to buy and many
10 sell. the latter disbclievlng all reports
about the scarcity. and looking for larger re
celpts at a later period. The receipts To-day
were l35 cars. against 263 Saturday. and out
Of these received IA graded No. ,. February
opened &C higher and May sc, and the latter
option improved pc more, but lost II later IN
the session. May oats were also firm, open
ing &C higher in sympathy with corn. The
situation in oats and corn as regards the large
official estimate and an actual small supply Is
precisely identical, ami one Will be very
likely TO follow the other. MAY pork opened
at SD SO. and sold of to So 80. March lard
