The recent slump in the stock market has caused Fred H. Merritt, local bro Ser, with offices on the fourth floor of the Palladio building, to suspend oper. ltions. He closed his doors yesterday, and the entire affairs of the concern nave been assigned to David l.. Fair child and Joseph C. Helm as trustees. The bad faith of outside brokers is said 10 be responsible for the failure
 Nothing eould be learned yesterday as to the extent of the firm s liabilities pr assets, but they are believed to be considerable. The trustees went to work on the books at once, and it is expected that n statement will be is sued within three or four days. Mir. Merritt was one of the most popular brokers on the curb, and he has been doing a big business. Some idea of the extent of his transactions may be gathered from the statement made yes. terday by Clyde w. Stinson, attorney for the trustees, who said that during the first eighteen days of this month Mir. Merritt had banked over $l 250,000.
 Merritt Keepsasilence
 Mr. Merritt would not speak of his affairs yesterday, but referred the re porter to Mr. Stinsou, who will have charge of the legal side of the firm s affairs. From him it was learned that heavy trading in stocks for which cer tiicates had not been issued the fail ure of outside brokers to acknowledge Mir. Merritt s drafts. the failure of local men to meet their obligations, and the general heavy declines in stocks com hined to cause Mr. Merritt to suspend business.
 Mr. Stinson emphatically denied that Mr. Merritt had been gambling on the stock market on margins. He said that had nothing to do with his suspension.
 Refused to Take the Stock
 He said that Mir. Merritt has sold large quantities of Greene Cananea and Denn Mining stock, for which eertif- cates have not yet been issued. He explained that large blocks of it were ordered before the decline, and that when drafts for the amounts were sent to the outside brokers they refused to take if at the original price. He inti- mated that several outside brokers had hit Mir. Merritt heavily in this manner dealing in the above stocks.
 CT think that when matters have been strengthened out the firm will resume business again. This will re- quire some time, how much l am un. able to state, as he has a large number Of accounts throughout the country. These will be strengthened out as soon as possible and when the balance has been struck I believe that all the cred itors will have been paid in full with something left over for MT. Merritt.

The trustees with whom the work of strengthening out his affairs has been placed are thoroughly competent, and the books will be put in shape in the shortest possible time.
 Local People May Lose
 It is possible that some of the local followers of the market will lose by the failure, hut only those who have purchased stocks for which there are no certificates as yet. Ii has been impossible to learn how many have been involved in this manner
 The announcement of the failure created considerable discussion on the street yesterday lt was entirely un- expected, as Mir. Merritt has been rated as one of the most substantial of the local brokers. Quite a number visited his offices yesterday with the intention of studying the quotations, but found the hoard without the customary fig ures, and were greatly surprised when they were told that business had been suspended.

GREENE MANAGER
 VISITS DULUTH
Dr. L. D. Ricketts Goes to Confer with Thomas F. Cole and Tells of Pro gress Made at Cananea and Improve ments Which Have Been Planned.

The Duluth News-Tribune says of a visit of Dr. l.. D. Ricketts to that city last week:
 Dr. l.. D. Ricketts, general superin tendent of the Greene Cananea prop. erty, arrived in Duluth yesterday morning to confer with President T. r. Cole of the company and will re main two or three days.
 When left Cananea on Thursday, '' said Dr. Rieketts yesterday. "every- thing was going smoothly and | have none but good news for Greene Cana nea officials and stockholders in Du- luth. '"
 Replying 10 questions. Dr. Ricketts said that while the company was not quite ready to discuss plans, he could state that various improvements to in- crease the capacity of the mines are under way. The railroad being built to the Cananea property will be completed next month and the company will then be able to utilize the rich ores and con centrating ores from the Bonanza shaft and other workings of the America. ' So far, he said, ''the output of cop. per has been increasing satisfactorily and when we get the railroad connec. tion with Cananea Central we look for n considerable increase in the produc. lion because we will be able to use some of the rich ores from that mine, and add to the concentrating ores that are ex- eeedingly desirable because the grade of concentrates is very high

Promising Exploration

From indications we have, we arc much encouraged now regarding sev eral new points at which we are work. ing, and have had gratifying results especially in the Kirk workings and in the Cole shaft. This exploration work is located over a mile from any of the known ore bodies producing at present.
 Careful thought is being given to the matter of plant extension and we are making certain changes in our shelter which will augment the blow. ing capacity and enable us to increase greatly the tonnage of the shelter.
 To Install Canvas Plant
 "The addition to the No. l eonccn- trator will include fine crushing ma. ehinery and concentrating tables, and we have authorized the addition to the eoncentrators of canvas plant which careful tests have shown will material. ly increase the saving in concentra tion.
 1.-The company has recently located inning lands to the extent of about 6,50O acres from five to seven miles southeast of the present holdings and some work in the way of preliminary exploration will be done in this ground during the coming year.
 Dr. Ricketts' n essage to the Du. luth stockholders will be received with a very special dejree of satisfaction. fortifying the faith the best informed have entertained in progress at the splendid Greene-C Cai anea properties. If is all the more reassuring because of its conservatism and because it is in line with expectations with regard to the great mining camp

A successful swine breeder gives the
following account of the floor he put
into his hog house:
The floor is made Of hard brick laid
fat in sand, the sand resting On gravel.
It is not safe to use dirt for bottom,
as it settles and causes the floor to
sink irregularly. Fill in, say, siy
inches with cinders and gravel, then
a layer Of sand and then the brick.
When laying the brick don't put them
too close together.
After you have them laid put plenty
of water on them, so as to soak them,
and then mix sand and cement in the
proportion of three parts Of sand to
one of cement and use enough water
so that it will pour freely. Pour this
over the floor and sweep it in with a
broom until the cracks are full The
hogs will not slip on this floor, and
It is cheaper than plank foor.-Farn

Scours In Calves.

Professor Shaw of the Michigan
Agricultural college says concerning
the treatment of scours in calves:
One of the best things we have
used and are using almost altogether
with which to suppress outbreaks of
calf scours is mixture of tincture
Of rhubarb, camphor and opiate, equal
parts in hot water, about teaspoon
full. One Of the most interesting re-
coveries l have ever seen was in the
case of calf that secured and was
so near death that the feet were
stretched out cold and stiff, and there
was every symptom of death. The
calf was treated in that way twice,
then was fed with raw eggs and milk
occasionally, and he recovered. He
was the sickest calf ever saw, so
sick his hair all came off after week
or ten days, but he Is one Of the best
feeders we have in the bunch today.
