THE RAILROADS.

A QUEER KIND OF A POOL.
It Is not believed In railroad cisclcs hers that
the pool rccently formed between the Clcvc-
lutd, Columbus, Cincinnati s. Indianapolis, tic
indianapolis s. st. Louis, ard tho Wabash Rail
rosds will work satisfactorily, although it Is
claimed by the managers Ut the pooled roads
that it is the most perfect pooling arrangement
ever made. 1t is claimed by railroad managers
here TINT the method Of fixing the bas!s Of d
division OF business IL suro to kill the arrange
lnent. This fcaturc OF tho agreement ts that
the gross caru!ngs Of each company for 1873 uro
gross earnings OF oil zcbatcs. commissions, and
other extraordinary expen6es incurred in
procuring business. Tho gross carn-
ings thus asceEtalncd constitute the ba-
Wis OF division for tl,c following year.
The earnings arc to be ascertalneti In tic satne
WAY at tho end Of each year. and the business
OF each year ts to form the basis for thu dtyls-
Ion IL ths succeeding year. In case the earn.
tnEs Of either road exceed the agreed basis, one
half Of tho excess Is allowed fur operating ex-
penscs to the road enrulng tho exttss, and tn:
balance Is divided as per agreement.
Now " cnn easily bo sacu such an arrange.

tent than before. For thu road tAt earrica

CHICAGO, Oct. 25-The wheat market WAS
decidedly weak this " orning and sold down on
the curbs,one previous to the opening Of the
board. As the morning WOKE on lower reports
came in from Liverpool and New York, and
when the regular board met the operators in the
pit fairly went Wild. The local operators were
aided aud intensified in their excitement by
the manipulation of the New York clique, and
the New York market closed q
cent below the lowest quotation of
yesterday. Our market closed weak
but during the aftt rnoon the curbstone deal
took its usual Saturday afternoon bulge, and
on the report of higher cables it went sharply
to $1.20 for November. aad Sl.22 for Deem
Der. There is but lutte dependence to be
placed on these midnight cables, which crowd
up the market late IN the afternoon, but on
the curb in Exchange Alley they count hugely.
There was u weakness visible in the corn
corner, aud October sold d quarter of cent
below the November option. The trading
however, was very moderate.
III provisirns there was another excitement
and d large advance, but it had no legitimate
basis and Was the work of local mani pu lators
purely. The outside prices of the day for
pork, $40. 60 Tor Novenbe and s1l rs for Jam
uary, were firmly maintained at the close.
What the market on grain and provisions
will be On Monday depends largely upon
whether the bulls nr the bears obtain the most
wind over Sunday.
