NAY FAILURES.
Failures For May Were Unprecedented
Both in Number and Amount
Of Liabilities.

NEW YORK. June S.-Dun's Review
will say on Saturday;
Failures in May were not only the
largest ever known In that month since
such records were made, but Of eight
months covered by these returns only
six have shown as large liabilities.
Contradictory though it may appear
the report is encouraging. There was
not single failure in the month which
was calculated to shake or did shake
commercial credits, which were strong
er at the end Of May than at the be-
ginning.
Neither were there any failures or
nest Of failures calculated to create
alarm about any particular branch of
business. The large brokerage failure
for about $13,OOO,0OO exceeded in amount
all failures in any other month except
one since 1898, and with it came anoth-
er for 735,OOO.. Nearly 50 percent of
the total defaulted liabilities was due
to five other commercial failures. while
the 10 large failures in manufacturing
and trading covered less than $4,000 900
liabilities in all
The number and amount of liabilities
OF all commercial failures in May COM
pared with last year are given:
May, 19OO-949; May. 1S99-5S1; La
bilities. May, 1SOO-s23, 77,151; 1898,
$40, $50.
The returns to Dun's review for May
show an unusually large number of
small failures. They exceed those Of
any other year but one. and this is
considered suggestive, also the increase
of over an eighth in average liabili-
ties.
This is readily traceable to the manu-
factories, for with the surprising in
crease in number, the smaller failures
in trading show lower liabilities than
in any other year except two. Manu-
featuring liabilities have much in
creased, however. the average for those
small firms running close to $4,000.
1t might be inferred that there has
been a really noteworthy expansion Of
manufacturing indebtedness for the
season, and in January a similar in
crease appeared, though very little in

TAMMANY WILL GET COLD FEET

San Francisco Journal Of Commerce.
Tammany has troubles Of its own to
look after as well as the ones which
confront Bryan. Some impertlnent in
vestlgator has been digging up clause
in the charter OF Greater New York
which provides that II any official holds
stock Or Is interested in any company
which sells supplies to the city Is gull
ty Of a mislemeanor and is subject to
removal from office. Mayor Van
Wyck Is a large stockholder In the
Trust Ice Company. which has large
dealings with the city. What may be
called the discovery Of this clause in
the charter, heretofore overlooked In
the fight with the trust, may have
exceedingly important results. Robert
A. Van Wyck. It is believed, cannot
much longer put off the evil day when
he must go upon the stand and tell un-
der oath whether he holds the Ice
trust stock or not, and 1t is expected
that he will then be Obliged 10 admit
the charge that he did receive 1900
snch shares. That admission will be
at once laid before Governor Roosevelt.
Proceedings for removing the mayor
may then be started or may be pre-
ceded by an indictment for mlsdemean-
or by special grand jury. If Van
Wyck goes, all the other Tammany Of
aeials in the trust must go. It looks
as If there was a cold day ahead for
Tammany and n frost for the demo-
