CURRENT HAPPENINGS.
THE OLD WORLD.

The result of the reballots taken in
France. in the districts in which the recent
elections for members Of the Chamber OF
Deputies were without definite result show
that the Boulangists have obtained nearly
half OF the representation of Paris. and
many of the anti Republicans elected are
pledged to the revision policy. NJ. Jacques,
Opportunist. who was defeated by Boulan-
ger in January, has now beaten
the Boulangist candidate by small
majority. NJ. Debelival, RevisiOnist. who
was dismissed from the Council of State for
publishing book entitled "Hommes en- une
Republique," is elected by a large majority.
Returns from 10 districts in which rebal-
lots were taken show the election of 122
Republicans ana 48 anti Republicans. In
Neuilly, NJ. Laur, Boulangist. received
1O,724, and Manoine, Republican, 1852 In
Toulouse. Minister Constans received
1894 and NJ. Susini G,883 In Bordeaux,
ex-Minister Raynal received 1850, and NJ.
Princelan Conservative, ,243. Boulogne
returns a Conservative and Republican.
1t is reported that split has occurred be-
tween Boulanger and Count Dillon because
of the formers assertion that the bargain
with the Conservatives had caused u loss
of seats to the Boulangists.
"A Rome dispatch says: "A terrible hur-
ricane swept the entire length of the island
of Sardinia leyeling many villages and

Hundreds of people were buried in the
ruins of their own homes, and thirty are

According to the latest estimate the
French Chamber of Deputies will have 365
Republican and 211 Opposition members.
This estimate includes the colonial mem
bers. The gains both of the Boulangists
and Moderates have been at the expense of
the Radicals, who have lost fifty seats. The
Moderates are liable to be outvoted by a
coalition unless they secure the support of
thirty members of the Right or thirty Radi-
Gals.

r.. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review Of
trade says
A closer money market has checked opera
tons to some extent. October disbursements
and moderate purchases OF bonds have made
the money market easier for the present, but the
rate on call after rising from 50 to per cent.
and even to 30 per cent for short time, is yet
about per cent. with no improvement in the
commercial loan market. The reports OF bust
ness from all parts Of the country show in
creased activity on the whole, though in some
branches trade is not up to the September
level. Chicago finds business larger than
year ago, with heavy country orders
showing large demand and easy financial con-
dition throughout the West The years receipts
OF cereals fall off a little, but of provisions are
nearly doubled. Cleveland finds all branches
improving, and factories full of orders. Pitts
burgh notes higher prices for iron and steel,
glass business active, with works all operating,
and the coal trade dull, waiting water for the
river movement. Throughout the West excellent
crops are the basis of large buying by the farm
ing districts and confident hopes as to the trade
for the rest of the year. The wool market shows
better tone, because concessions in price have
induced larger transactions Raw sugar is
lowe Ell, the demand for consumption being
slack and meanwhile heavy sales Of sugar trust
stock have depressed the price, Wheat has
weakened, and the price is 12i cents lower.
Corn is l cent and oats % cent lower, and pork
steady. The general level OF prices is neverthe-
less shade higher than Oct. l, and has ad-
vanced 10 per cent since Sept. Ia result
rather due to partial failure OF some crops than
to increase of momentary supply The volume
of money in circulation is SIS, 800 900 larger than
Sept. /, and the increase in three months has
been 1913, 100000, but the aggregate is scarcely
larger now than it was last December.
The business failures in the United States
for the quarter ending with September were
2,27G, showing decrease OF s., or 81 per cent
from last year, but for nine months the number
has been S79, showing an increase of 329, or
per cent. The liabilities for the past quarter
have been swelled by few large failures to $780,
OCT ,0ij, on 40 per cent. more than for the same
quarter last year but for nine months the
aggregate has been $l05 055, 800, an increase OF
1862 per cent. For last week the failures report

four for Canada against 1872 the previous week.
