officially applies to pooling:
Article ia. Railroad companies are
empowered to enter into contracts
among themselves whereby the earn
ings of their lines, or of part of them,
are to be pooled, for division among
the companies in such proportion as
may be agreed upon, provided that the
folio wing conditions be complied with {:

tariffs approved by the department Of
communication and public work eX-
cept in the cases and subjects to the
condisions created by the respective
concessions and by this law.

pauies may enter into can not become
operative until they have been ap-
proved by the department before men
toned.
The tariff provisions enumerated in
this railroad law of Mexico do not
take effect until Jan l, 1900.
The present law became effective on
