ports that the total number OF bust

with 10,968 failures in 1884. with lia-

failures for 1885 are only 3 per cent.
less in number than in 1884, the lia-
bilities have decreased nearly SO per

in business in 1885 was 919,990. OF
these one in every cighty-six failed.
In 1873, with $4,000 traders, one in
every sixty-iour came to grief. The
average amount of each failure was
&116,7S, against $206,S2 in 1884 and
