Elevator Pool Co11apses.

The end of the Buffalo elevator pool
has come at last. The organization has
collapsed, and, for this season at least,
will in all probability not be resumed.
More than half of the elevator interests
were out of it, All canal houses which
had no rail connections were excluded.
This step was the death blow to the pool.
Some of the canal houses, which had
not turned a wheel for fifteen years,
were being opened; and the Frontier,
which is controlled by James Davidson,
offered to take grain at one-eighth Of a
cent. A lively fight is anticipated.

Confident of the Outcome.

Bradstreets commercial report says:
s"The lack of excitement, nervousness or
interruption to the ordinary orderly con-
duct of public affairs, and particularly
business operations, with which this coun-
try has passed from peace to war seems
likely to become historical. When con-
trasted with the records, where extent
of business movements at periods in the
country's history when war was the final
result of strained relations, the temper
with which the country has recognized
the outbreak of hostilities with foreign
power is not only proof that the dizziness
and depression of the past six weeks
have largely discounted the effect usual
~ witnessed, but furnishes valuable
index to the general point Of view taken
by the business community as to the out
come of the pending war. Little or no
effect upon general trade distribution OF
an unfayorabie character is perceptlble
in the reports of the past week. Cereal
