A dispatch to Jloyds from sydney. n. s

were given TO abandon ship. All hands took

bradstreets has very interesting
review of the business failures for the
FIRST six months OF 1895 as compared
with the corresponding periods Of sew.
eral preceding years. The number of
business failures for the first half of
the current year is given at G597, as
against 6299 for the first half of 1891.
In fact, the number for 1895 has not
been exceeded for many years, # ever
before, in our financial history--cer-
tainly not since 1879. There has been
al increase in the number of failures
III the Western, Northwestern and
Southern States and IA decrease in the
Eastern, Middle and Pacific States and
lnthe Territories. There is no great
difference between the liabilities of
the failed traders for the two periods
OF 1894 and 1895. In the first half of
1884 the liabilities were ss2, 5j5. 339
and in 1895 they we're S79, 7O7, ,S6l,
while there was about the same differ
ence in the assets Of the bankrupts of
the two periods. In the Northwestern
States the largest number OF failures
is reported from the States of Mime.
sota, Nebraska and Montana. In the
Western States Illinois, Michigan and
Missouri show II considerable increage
IN the number of failures. There is
no doubt, asserts the Chicago Record,
but that the relatively unfavorable
showing in the States of the West is
due almost entirely to the failure Of
the crops in some portions Of those
States. That the business depression
II passing away is shown by compar.
ing the first and second quarters Of
the year. For the first quarter Of
1885 the number of failures was 3sI2
and for the second quarter 27S5. The
liabilities for the first quarter were
sbG, $40, ii3, ~ against s32, 797, 4lS
for the second. On the whole, the
showing is not unfavorable. Many
conservative men think the revival Of

a year or so ago, in writing on tho
Italian law prohibiting the sale out
eide the State of historic masterpieces
of nrt Alfred Trumblo explained in
the Collector how the impecunions or
grasping modern owners Of such
works eyaded this edict by having
copies made which they substituted
for the originals, the latter being
sruugglod away and sold in Paris or
London. Mr.. Trumble drew atten.
tion TO the danger that in time to
come the copies would probably also
pass INTO the hands of collectors as
originals, with the full Endorsement of
the famous collections from which
they came. 1t seems that this Italian
practice has imitators elsewhere. In
recent interview abont the sales OF
old English pictures, Mr.. George II.
Boughton, theartist, said Every often
when the noble owner parts with his
family Reynolds, or Gainsborough, or
Hoppner, he has them well copied,
and the void is not remarked. They
have gone to he cleaned : and the
clean copy and large check take the
place Of the original. Now, in the
years to come, the danger is that these
"nnderstudies" will impose even on
the heirs to the estate; will impose

such treasures, with such antecedents
