CHICAGO, January CONTRARY to pre-
dictious May pork opened at SIS 10 this
morning. a break Of 25c a barrel from Sat
urday's closing price This was due 70 the
heavy selling orders received and the I'M
derestimate Of hog receipts. The trade
is yet undecided as 20 whether there is
corner ia pork or not. May is a long way
ahead, and il seems improbable that any
syndicate is at work on corner at present
for that month. Still, pork IS scarce, aud
though q. present the clique suspected is
"scalpingn on the market, there is a gen.
eral feeling among the traders thai there
is danger OF squeeze later on. Wheat was
slow Ell through the session, and kept
within a sc range. The northwestern re
Celpts were small for Monday, but the To-
cal receipts were nearly l15 cars above the
estimate, aud the trade was inclined to
await the announcement Of the visible SUP
plv, which was late The reports showed
a smaller increase than generally expected,
and tended to keep prices rather firm. In
corn initial transactions were at about the
final quotations OF Saturday aud sagged of
under moderate efforts Oats were mOder-
ately active and easier. Flour, strong.
