properly balanced. This can be done
by using at the rate per acre of about
$50 pounds of acid phosphate and the
same amount of kainit, in connection
with the average dressing Of stable
manure. When the manure is treated
in this manner the expense of dou-
BILE hauling is avoided, because, to get
best results, it would be necessary in
case manure alone is used, to apply
phosphoric acid and potash to make
up the deficiency of these two ingre-
dents. These two ingredients will al
so prevent the escape of ammonia,
which takes place when stable ma
nure heats during the process of de-
composition.
A complaint which farmers fire,
BILE manure is it's failure to produce
much benefit on clovers. 1t is only
natural, however, that stable manure
Is not the right fertilizer for clover,
cowpeas or other plants belonging to
the so-called leguminous family, be-
cause these crops have the faculty Of
drawing their own nitrogen from the
atmosphere; hence, as stable manure
is valuable chiefly for it's nitrogen
it furnishes the ingredient Of plant
food which the crops do not require
from an artificial source The appli-
cation of stable manure to clover or
peas is like carrying coal to New
CASTLE" Clovers need only the miner
al forms of food and can attend to
their own nitrogen. Their cultivation,
under proper conditions, is distinct
gain to any farm.

this will not last long. There is dis

The special committee appointed to ex-
anime the affairs of the trust company
organized by electing Edwin Gould chair
man. The committee was in session all
the afternoon and the early part of the
evening. The result of the deliberations
is given in the appended statement:
The special committee, consisting Of
Messrs. Edwin Gould, BidwelI, Mayer,
Bra1nerd and Armstrong, appointed by
the board of directors Of the Produce
Exchange Trust company to look after
Its assets and affairs, has examined the
cond1t1on of the bank as fully as the
limited time at its disposal has permit
ted The committee is we'll assured, as
the result of such exam nation, that every
deposttor of the bank will be paid in full,
and large surplus will be left io- the
Stockholders. The cause of the failure is
the result of the locking up of an undue
proportion Of it's funds in loans not i'm
mediately realizable, and on which it Ia
peIeVed 1t will realize large per cent Of
the amount loaned. The committee is en-
deavoring to form an arrangement for
the early payment of depositors, and ex
poets to issue fuller statement at q later
period.
State Superintendent Kilbourne, of the
Etate banks, issued the appended state
ment at the close of business today:
"a special examination of the Produca
Exchange Trust company was made bv
/ the state banking department commenc-
ing Dec. Z. This examination was made
because of rumors in reference to the
company which were in circulation in and
about Wall street 1t was completed on
the 9Th, and I had en- interview with
President .Beale and Vice President Scud-
der with reference to the company's af-
fairs. I told them they were in a pre-
| carious condition, and Immediate steps
should be taken to fortify the bank to
meet heavy Withdrawals, which I he
heved would result on account of the
! rumors about the company. 1 criticised
so-called syndicate loans severely. and
pointed out that they had not enough

night that Mr.. Beale did not communicate

something from other sources as to the

Before the concerted relief by the
clearing house banks the money rate
leaped to SO, 70, 100, and, according to
the official record 125 per cent. Creditable
reports assert that 1876 per cent was paid
for money during the day. The official
record of such a transaction was lost
in the excitement.

RELIEF MEASURES.
The excitement was intense all day
and there can be no doubt that a large
volume of transactions and a record Of
many quotations was entirely lost in the
seething and turmoil of brokers and op-
! orators, who surged over the floor OF
! the exchange and about every post all
! day long. The changes of prices be-
| tween sales ran up to one, two and even
three points, both on the downward
! grade and in the recovery.
| After the close of the exchange there
was a meeting of the clearing house
committee to concoct further measures
for safety and relief. An issue of clear
ing house certificates was discussed, but
the bank presidents present decided it
would not be advisable at present. A
meeting of the clearing house committee
was called for II o'clock tomorrow morn
ing with view to be prepared for ac-
ton in case of further emergency.
The excitement in the stock exchange
! affected the bond market more or less
but the losses were confined to the low
er grade bonds, which have been the sub
ject Of speculation.

COMMENTS OF A NEW YORK EX-
PERT ON THE CAUSES AND Eff
FECTS OF THE DAY

NEW YORK, Dec 1S-(Special.)-
The financial editor of the Evening
Post thus comments on the day in
Wall street:
1T has been known for more than
q week past, in we'll informed Wall
street circles, that one of the younger
banking institutions of this city
was in serious trouble and 1t was
very largely this knowledge which
withheld any aggressive support from
the financial markets. This morning
the news was communicated TO the
} general public, when the Produce Ex-
change Trust company closed its
doors. After what has occurred in the
various security and money markets
during the past six weeks, and it is
hardly necessary to comment on this
unfortunate occurrence further than
to say that the embarrassment, like
others lately announced, marks out
the over hasty capitalization of hope
by promoters and spectators, and
the upWise eXtensiOr cf :dits TO G Ich
borrowers on the kind Of collateral of
fered by them. 1t is reassuring in these
days Of stress and tension to recall the
general policy of the New York bank
ing institutions six or eight months
cSO' Alc AdCI l1ldI d pOllCy Oh
conservatism was then pursued Is the
anchor OF the local market now. The
stock market naturally reflected, by
extreme decentralization, the early
announcement to the mass of security
holders Of this and on less serious
stock exchange suspension. In the
forenoon the declines were violent
enough, but We're offset both by heavy
covering of short accounts and by
purchases of outside capitalists. In
the afternoon, however, a very acute
situation developed in the stock eX-
change money market, precipitated by
the demand Of many lenders for re-
placement of industrial collateral with
other security. The move at this juno
ture was perhaps unfortunate, though
the lenders had strong enough rea-
son for their course. 1t drove UP call
money before the close to the eQuiva-
} lent Of 1S6 per cent-a price hich eX-
ceeds even the maximum Of the mid
summer strain of 1896 when the rate
touched 125. The result of the money
squeeze was a wholesale outpour Of
speculative stocks, on which the mar
ket closed extremely weak It
may be added, by way Of possible re-
assurance, that measures are now un-
der consideration by the large local
institutions looking to possible meas
ures of relief. The foreign markets
were generally demorahzed, consoIs !
and rentes falling to much the lowest
prices of the year."
