Crime In Europe.

Cf1m0 IN Europe.
London Daily News.
From the new volume published by
the italian General Director of Statistics,
which contains data from 1873 to 1884,
the following figures are taken respecting
murder and manslaughter in the follow
ing countries. The proportion of indi-
viduals condemned is for every 100000
persons; In Italy, 812; France, l.56;
Belgium, 1.7S; Germany, LII; Great
Britain, O60; Austria, 2.24; Hungary,
600 Spain, 7.94. Thus Italy, Spain
and Hungary have the unenviable pre-
cedence in murder. In offenses against
morality Italy shows more favorably.
The proportion Of persons condemned for
such offenses is: In Belgium 1911 in
every 100000 inhabitants; Germany
14.O3; France, 9.77; Austria, 9.1S; Hun
gary, 6.55; Italy, 3.77; England, LIZA;
Spain, .95. Germany occupies the first
place in robbery, the proportions being
in round numbers: Germany, 222; Italy,
154; Great Britain, 147; Belgium 1913;
France, 122; Hungary, II; Austria, 60;
Spain, Sc. Taking all crime, together,
Germany is at the top of the scale and
England at the bottom. The volume,
which is compiled with care, shows that
crimes in Italy have sensibly diminished
since 1880. The total number of con-
formations has decreased in the ten years
from 1873 to 1884 from 69,023 to sc, 543,
and the proportion for every 10000 in
habitants is reduced from 25.4 40 to 2O.62.
