.DuN.s COMMERCIAL REVIEW.

Failures for October and for the Week
i Stocks and Products are Weaker, and
.sf Establishments at Work-Operationl
n Leather. Wool Cotton aud Stocks.
NEW YORK. Nov. Or G. Dun C Co
in their weekly review of trade to-day
say:
The liabilities of firms failing in DC
tober were SIG. 179. $3.50; against Sl0..
772.943 in Ave weeks last year, and
| $24. 954, 49, in 1892.
l. Failures of the week have been CSC
in the United States, against 261 last
| year and 40 in Canada. against 42 last
year.
1t has been a broken week. and just
before and after elections in the more
important states, operations rarely
have much significance. Stocks and
i products are weaker, and there is some
decrease in the number of establish
| ments at work, both for reasons hav-
ing nothing to do with questions of
government.
The purchase of competing interests
now gives the H. C. Frick Co owner
ship of 1856 out of 1894 coke ovens
in the Connellsville region, and prac.
tical control of more than three-quar-
tiers, and an advance in the price of
coke is expected.
The United States Leather Co., hold
ing great quantities produced from
high-priced hides, finds outside con-
Germs reducing prices of leather and
has stopped production for sixty days,
in order to control the market. Man
ufacturers have offered concessions
ranging from to 10 cents per pair,
only increasing the disposition sof
dealers to buy.
Many wooden mills are closing to
wait for orders. though the demand
is fairly satisfactory for some dress
goods and worsteds, and the Washing
ton mills open clay worsted at 10 cents
advance. But the prices of these and
most qualities of woolens are still un.
steady. as manufacturers do not yet
know what they have to meet. The
reaction from speculative prices of
wool abroad and the stiffness of spec
ulative and country holders here re-
duce sales to 5,623.54O pounds for the
week, against s,S25. 900 for the same
week of 1892, but stocks of foreign
wool here are very large.
Cotton mills do well as the halt and
hesitation in cotton does not stop buy
ing of goods and many believe goods
safe at current prices even If cotton is
not The market for raw cotton is
held at s. 81 cents, in spite of highly
respectable estimate of only 6,455, 600
bales for the year.
Stocks have declined an average of
S1.46 for railroads and silly for trusts
during the week, with an obvious
cause in fears of gold exports and seri-
GUS financial anxieties abroad, espe-
cially at Paris A coming congress

INSTRUCTIVE AT LEAST.

Suggestions for Democrats In the Repub-
lican Victory.
It might have been better; it might
have been worse.
In all the big states there have been
great democratic gains since last year.
The party is regaining it's voting
what is equivalent to a real victory. In
spite of painful perplexities the natural
vigor of democracy has asserted itself
in Kentucky.
The cause of deepest regret is the de-
feat of Judge Edward Lane in the 18th
Illinois district. The leaders and the
press of the party made gallant fight
for Judge Lane, laying aside all differ
ences of Judgment on single questions.
The Republic has earnestly lapored in
his behalf, and has had the cooperation
of the democratic newspapers in the
counties of the district.
The result. in Illinois is a lesson upon
the necessity of full and generous con-
sideration for all the elements of opinion
on disputed questions. The party must
be able to utilize all its strength. It
cannot rely upon any gains whatever
from the republican ranks or from those
of the populists-
Maryland's turning over of things
should have little significance. The
democracy will not be benefited and the
republicans will reap some advantage
from the result. But the state will be
in the right column next year. German
is not the democratic party OF Mary
land.
The late election proves that the de-
mocracy is abundantly supplied with
the votes to win in 1896: but that the
votes must be organized, satisfied and
honestly led.
Now we know what is before us. We
can win if we Whilst. Louis Republic.

a LESSON FoR PROTECTION

Tfn-Plate Production Under Tariff Re-
form Laws.
A gain of $4,000, 900 pounds in the
American production of tin plate in
the first year of the new tariff is a fact
of the greatest possible interest to Mr..
William Mckinley. 1t shows him that
he has not lahcred in vain. The
prayers he made for the preservation
of the infant tin plate industry have
been answered. The democratic tariff
law abolished the absurd Mckinley
duty of four cents a pound ON tin ore
and reduced the duty on tin plate one
huff. Twenty-six new mills which
have begun operation in single year
will come very near increasing the total
annual output to an equality with the
total annual eonsam ption. In few
years from now We may be exporting
tin plate instead OF buying it.
Mr.. Mekinley's organs are obliged
To admit the facts, but they explain
that the increase is the result of
duties high enough to protect
which is something quite different
from their frantic assertions OF 1904:
that democratic success would bank
rupt the tin plate mills already il
operation and make the opening Of
others impossible.
It is evident that Mr.. Mckinley s or
gans are learning in spite Of them
selves. Perhaps in time Mr.. Mckinley
himself may know more about the po-
litical economy Of tin plate production
than he has ever allowed himself to sus-

1900 for Brown, the democratic can
,didate for governor in 1891, has been
changed to majority of about 10. 900

KENTUCKY.

Although the result for governor in
Kentucky will be very close, the re-

even on the showing up to date. Owing
to the use of the blanket ballot returns
are coming in slowly. but both sides
are claiming the election of their GU
'bernetorial candidate. The vote was
light. and it is certain that many DEM

situation of voting for free-silver
