INDUSTRIAL FAILURES IN GERMANY
Textile Concerns Injured by American
Enterprise.


Enterprise.
Significant and Interesting statistics con-
cerning industrial failures in Germany in
1893, lS~ and 1897 have been furnished the
State Department by Consul Monaghan at
Shemnltz Commenting on them he says:
These figures show a decrease in the
number of bankruptcies during period of
increase in population and in number of in
ocstries. agricultural enterprises show a
d&ngerous increase in failures Bankers
ana business men are by no means so eager
70 assist purely agricultural enterprises as
Iney are mechanical and commercial ones
Ihese agricultural failures are made up of
the comparatively small firms No very
large concern was involved. These, as a
rule: are too strongly intrenched to permit
Oh laiiure. Another exception is the in
crease In the number of textile concerns
that faiied This is duo not only to the
tariH Dill OF 1897, but to the increasing ca
pacity OF the United States to supply its
own own wants ana to export to other countries
me shoe trade shows an interesting in
crease. Is II not possible that Americas
WohaerIul progress ana prosperity in shoe
nahihg is responsible for this? The reasons
given mere are that 1.-THE big mills are seat-
ing up the little ones. This to a certain
extent, is undoubtedly tfde. An indirect
cause OF many failures is the unprece-
aenleu pullding speculation. The CONNER
ciai liauStraes, as "a 6rulea are safe and
souho: rms Is due tosa more discreet Civ
ing OF credits and 4oo az better system of
hhding out the financial shanding of FIRMS"

Some Odd Requests,
From the London Telegraph

From the London Telegraph.
A weH-known publishing firm has for a
long time kept a book in which are noted
the curious blunders made by those who
come and ask for books. These notes are
very funny reading, as the following ex-
tracts will show: "Worcester's Diseases of
the Colander' was asked for; THE Wor-
cester Diocesan Calendar was what was
required. River Frozen, Silent Gold, and
UDstepped Lands" was demanded; the book
wanted was Rev. Frazer's silent Gods
and Sunsteeped Lands" Play Actress :"
by Crockett. Pseudonym Library was
turned into PLAY Actress and Cricket in
the Pandemonium Library" ''The Boy
Hero" by Walsham How, was wanted,
but the collector asked for "The Boy Hero
Of Walthamstow, and the same genius
turned 'Frondes Agrestes'' into "Bounders
and Heretics." II requifes good deal of
ingenuity TO translate some of the demands
made for books, as every public librarian
knows.
