price movement irregular, but sus-
tanned by the strength of special

There was the usual disinclination TO
enter on extensive new commitments

week has served to attract outside in

News developments today we're

high prices relying on the export of
rubber from Brazil, and the move

South Chicago, open accounts receiv.
able at about 100000 and outstanding
contracts for the sale Of 100000 worth
of grain at profit of about $4,000.
Our liabilities" said E. l.. Merritt,
one of the partners in the firm, will
amount to about 100000, while our
assets aggregate about $350,0O0, and
with a good receiver handling the
liquidation we should be solvent, with
a capital of $125,o00 to $4,000. The
conditions leading up to our trouble
were practically the same as that of
the Burns-Yantis Grain company. We
had lot of corn sold east. at high
prices, and when it got there the buy.
ers refused to take it. We also had
considerable expense in running our
elevator. The large amount of wet
corn which came on the market this
year entailed considerable expense in
drying out and getting it into condi.
ton. I have little doubt that we will
be able to pay up dollar for dollar" 4.
The Merritt house confined its opera.
tions to the cash market and it's open
trades in the pits amounted to about
100000 bushels, most of which was
corn and oats, and in consequence the
announcement had little effect on fu.
ture trading.
