4 dHErRPUL BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

The business failures reported TO r. c. Dun Co. for
the last week numbered 2Ql for the United States and
twenty nine for Canada, total OF 230, compared with
24f week ago and 107 for the corresponding week Of
1890. The weekly review says
THE past week has brought the expected reaction
in stocks with the passing OF dividend - the Missouri
Pacific and some troubles among Western roads. But
in business OF the country reaction appears,
are there signs OF Encouragement. The crops arc
large safe and the fact Of greatest consequence
is that the producers who usually have to take little
more than the cost Of pr ductiOn for full crop, will
this year get excellent prices for the largest crops ever
grown. In very many cases iallne-s will realize for
their wheat grown this year moro than the entire cost
OF their farms. II IS impossible that such conditions
should not cause greatly increased demand for many
kinds OF manufactured products, ana the steady en-
largemcnt Of trade in nearly all lines is not merely
natural but the inevitable, effect Of enormous add
ton TO the wealth Of the producing classes. Unseason-
ably hot weather has for tho time retarded some trades
but change is already noticed. II is also a most
encouraging fac that these favorable conditions have
produced Is yet no speculative excitement or craze,
such often prepares The way for swift and dsas rOus
reaction II Is fortunate for the country that appr.-
tension OF financial difficulty this fall powerfully
restrained the speculative tendency

Judge Ingraham. in the supreme Court, Chambers,
yesterday handed down decision refusing to grant the
Injunction asked for by oscar Iammerein to restrain
the Aronsons from producing the opera "Cavalleria
Rustcana.7 Judge Ingraham's opinion is short, and
in full il is as follows:
1T would appear from the papers submitted on this
motion that the bretto and piano and vocal scores Of
the opera CavaleIia Rusticana have been published
and that nothing remains unpublished unless it be the
orchestral accompaniment The entire opera has been
published with piano and vocal score, and the Or
chestral accompaniment of the overture and Inter
mezzo has been published. Ii does not appear that
the defendants have obtained copy Of the orchestral
accompaniment not published, intend to use such
orchestral accompaniment in the proposed production
Of the opera but they state that they are about to
produce the opera from the published parts purchased
by them from persons who have published the same
In this case it also appears that the defendant has
gone 10 considerable expense in preparing the opera
for the stage and that the opera has been before pro
sucd in the United states without the authority of
the composer his assigns.
