MERRILL LYNCH DEVELOPING CAPITAL MARKETS FUND, INC.
Supplement dated October 21, 1994, to Prospectus dated October 21, 1994
FOR USE IN OHIO
Investment in the Fund may involve a higher degree of risk than investment
in more traditional open-end diversified investment companies because although
the Fund may not purchase more than 10% of the voting securities of any one
issuer with regard to 50% of the Fund's assets, the remaining assets may be
invested without this restriction. See "Investment Objective and Policies --
Other Investment Policies and Practices -- Non-Diversified Status".
This Prospectus, as supplemented, must be delivered to Ohio investors prior
to the consummation of the sale of Fund shares.
