STATE OF TRADE,

The dispatches to BrddsiIco's this week from the
principal cities of the United states reveal some
what improved feeling In general trade circles,
and this IN spite ofthe large number of small fail
urcs reported The dry goods trade shows somC
improvement. Wheat has advanced during the
week in consequence OF the prospect of u greater
European necessity for foreign wheat, owing TO
the probability that next year crops viii be short
throughout Europe. Corn has advanced pretty
largely, partly as the result Of speculative manipu
latiOns nt Chicago, but partly sO rs tho result Of
continued large consumptive demand in the
eastern markets, The entire movement OF grain
at the west has fallen OIL since the holidays, II is
believed that the prospect OF higher prices for all
lOodstuis makes the farmers unwilling TO sell.
IRON Is still depressed in price, ana inquiries arc
made to learn the views of mnlefs rather than
with any intention OF buying, Pig has been sold
under current rates. Manufactured iron is quoted
from 23 cents TO % cents, according TO grade and
syc, with concessions possible for cash oilers for
large lots, Nearly 1000 tons Of foreign pig have
been sold In New York during the week on private
terms, steel rails are quoted ut $40, although 81
has been paid for small orders. The ieellug In
western iron circles Is hopeful. Petroleum con-
tinues buoyant, although quiet in the neighbOr-
hood Of 90 cents in view of the fact that there Is
still one Forest county well expected, whose prob
able flow cannot be determined in advance, All
the new gushors 10 date are proving short lived,
Forest county itselfls ofspotted y0luo only and
the outlook In the absence of anew complications
Is for bull market. The. coal market Is duh.
The talked-Ot suspenson'of work nt the anthra'
cite mines 10 reduce stocks II Is expected, Will be
decided next week, The output OF anthracite for
1889 Is about 100000 tons in excess Of 1881. The
outlook for the current year Is that more coal Will
be shipped west, ARRANGEMENTS having been made
10 that end, The ocean ireghts market exhibits
no new features otimportgncc. "A number Of Pc
troleum vessels have arrived but muCy rates for
charters are asked, aud shippers do not respond,
This IS duo 70 the act that stocks abroad are large,
and the foreign market continues shy during tho
meTcurial stute of the speculative market ON this
side. Grain has gone abroad moro freely during
the week NJ Baltimore and Philadelphia than at
New York. Berth rates and the movement by
steamer have continued as for several weeks past,
There has been increased activity I'm the wool
trade and the market closes stronger, particularly
for fine nccces. There were 3i2 failures I'm tho
United States reported TO BrddstrCcrg during the
past week 65 moro than the preceding week. $50
moro than the corresponding week last year, and
l6I more than the same week in 1851.

REVIEW OF THE WEEK.

Our stock market has been without life all
the last week, and the average commission
broker, ifhe is conservative, will have to reduce
his Sunday contributions by about one half
The dear public have let stocks alone, and are
busy trying to figure the losses of last year
over on the profit side Of the account. The
railway earnings are still very large, and the
exports are increasing daily still the surprs-
ing fact exists that the rates of foreign ex-
change remain firm above the gold shipment
point. This is very hard to account for UNI
less they are sending us back our securities in
exchange for exports of grain.
The Hannibal and st. Joe railway have de-
clared az per cent. dividend on their pre-
ferred stock.
The heavy shipments of cotton and corn
from the south and southwest that will surely
follow this spring will test to the utmost the
carrying capacity Of the roads
Tho deialcation of the state treasurer of
Tennessee had but little effect on stocks
There has been fair demand all the week
for government bonds, and tho prices con-
tinue very frm--near the best prices of the
year.
Foreign adyices in the mining exchange
report that an effort is being made in London
to buy up the Iyanhoe Mining Company's
property, and to begin active operations in
the spring

The Chicago te st. Lo,,ts Pool.

For some time there has been a good
deal Of reagon to think that the Chicago
and st. Louis pool would be broken, and
audit would have been butfor the judicious
temperate action of few gentlemen. This
pool was formed about year ago. with
Mr.. S. B. Brown as commissioner. Every
thing moved along harmoniously until
about three or four months ago, when the
Illinois Central commenced to cut the pas
senger rates between Chicago and St.
Louis, claiming that the Alton and Wa
bash had not been treating 1t fairly. The
action OF the Illinois Central greatly
exasperated the Alton, which gave &
thirty days notice of withdrawal. The
Alton claimed that it had a far greater griev
ance regarding the division of the freight
business than the Illinois Central had about
the passenger business, and that it had
been required, ever since the formation of
the pool, to turn over G. large amount of
business or money to make up the shorta
ges of the Illinois Central. Before the ex-
piration of the thirty days notice, how
ever, the trouble regarding passenger eff
fairs was settled and rates restored. Con-
sequently, the Alton recalled it's notice of
withdrawal from the freight pool, and it
was decided to carry out the existing
agreement until Jan. l, 1884, when it ex-
PRED by limitation. 1t was also decided
that, before the expiration of the pool
ing agreement, a meeting of the general
managers and general freight
agents of the various roads interested
in this business should be held
to see if a reorganization of the pool could
not be effected. The AltoE and Wabash
pretended all along that they were not sat
istied with their percentages, and, as the
Illinois Central seemed to be determined
not to submit to reduction of its per-
centsges, it was generally believed that
the pool would cease to exist at its term
ination, January l, 1884.
meeting of the managers and general
officers of the roads in this pool was held
at Commissioner Browns Office to iud out
whether the existing difficulties could not
be healed and arrangement made by which
the pool could be continued after January
/. There were present j. f. Tucker and
Horace Tucker, Illinois Central; G. H
Chapel and II. II. Cartwright, Alton;
G. Il. Wellington, Wabash; Paul Morton,
Darlington; and S. 3. Brown, comusis-
sioner.
1t wGs found that none OF the roads we're
really DESTROYS that the pool should be dis
solved. All agreed that it would be better
to make concessions and continue the
pool than to engage in another rate war.
When it was found that it would be i'm
possible to come to an agreement if re-
arrangement of the existing percentages
was persisted il, it was resolved to con-
tinue the present pooling arrangement
and the existing percentages for one year
from January l, 1884, and if in the mean
time trouble should arise regarding the
division of the business the question of
new percentages should be settled by
arbitration. The present percentages
are: Alton, So; Wabash, 90, Illinois Cen
trail, 20; Burlington, 15.
