The newly published criminal stats.
les OF the German empire are not
pleasant reading. All along the line
they show an increase in crime over
he previous year, which cannot alto.
gether be accounted for by the natural
increase of population. The total num-
Der OF convictions reached 497, 300, or
27,5Oo more than last year. In the
categories Cf ordinary theft and rob-
berry with violence tho increase Is very
marked, probably owing to the want
caused by general ira lie depression. A
remarkable increas" is also observable
in offenses against of. eials and against
public orders. Probably the largest in.
crease of all is found in crimes where
bodily injury is inflicted This last
category has risen from $4,000 to 98,.
900. The number of offenses against
morality steadily rises in accordance
with the experience Of former years.
This was notably the case With rape
and crimes committed against chill
dren. These have risen from 4,76A to
5,152 and from 1884 to 4,115 respec.
