WHY MEN FAIL IN BUSINESS.

In the course OF It's Investigations
OF failures through many years,
Bradstreets has brought together
vast deal OF information in regard
to the immediate causes Of CONNER
cial failures from which It draws
the conclusion that tendencies pre-
sent within the individual himself are
responsible for four-flfths OF all bus
mess failures occurring, the remain
ing one-fifth being due to extrane-
Gus conditions over which the lndi-
vldual trader has no control, II has
found that eight leading causes are
due to the individual himself, while
three others are largely beyond his
control. These eight are "incompe-
tency," "inexperience, lack of
capital" "unwise granting of cred
It's" Outside spoculatlons, neg
lect of business, personal extray-
agance," and fraudulent disposition

failure of others" and "compeh-
ton"
In 1907 the eight factors above
mentioned caused S1,1 per cent OF
the failures, as against 1913 per cent
in 1906, while the three causes be-
yond control of the individual in
duced 1879 per cent of the failures,
as against 2O,3 per cent in 1906.
Thus, 1t is pointed out, the indl-
vidual was apparently more to blame
in 1907 than in 1906, so far as the
actual casualties were concerned but
when the figures OF liabilities are
considered It is found that the three
causes grouped in the second CLASH
fication were responsible for 554
per cent Of the failure damage, as
against only 27.1 per cent in 1905.
In 1893 &c. 4 per cent OF the failures

THE WILLIAMS CURRENCY BILL.

What will be known as the minor
ity currency bill was introduced in
the house by John sharp Williams,
tse Democratic leader. This measure
was the result of conference with
the minority members OF the COM
mittee on banking and currency The
bill provides that the total llabili-
ties OF any national bank shall not
exceed 30 per cent OF the capital
stock, irrespective OF discounts; that
no national bank shall loan In the
aggregate more than seeyn times the
amount OF It's pald-up capital plus
its unimpaired surplus. Violation OF
these provisions is made punishable
by fine and imprisonment. II would
allow any national bank to keep SO
per cent Of It's reserve in United
states bonds or In the bonds OF states
or certain municipalities, and the
elastic currency feature Is contained
In section which provides that
these municipal bonds may be de-
posted in the nearest subtreasnry in
exchange for United States emerg-
ency subtressury notes, A striking
feature OF the bill is the authorize
ton Of tax OF one-sixteenth Of /
per cent on bank deposits TO create
a fund OF s15,OOO,oO to insure the
funds OF deposItors In case Of the
failure OF a bank. The final section
OF the bill provides penalty Of fine
or Imprisonment for any bank Of

BRITAIN BUcKING OUR TRUSTS.


England has struck blow at the
American trust by remarkable law
on the subject OF patents, Under
the old laws an INVENTOR after secur-
ing patent In Washington, might
take out a similar patentFfor Great
Britain. This is 80 changed now
that II, four years after the issue of
the patent, the patented article is not
manufactured In England, the pat
ent may be revoked. This means
that American trusts holding valu-
able patent rights must do some OF
their manufacturing In England.
This will bear principally upon the
makers OF American machinery and
machine tools.
England also has made Illegal a
favorlte device OF trusts In this coun-
try. Sellers OF patented or special
article In this country frequently re-
quire a dealer to sign an agreement
not to buy supplies from any other
concern. similar agreements are
now Illegal under the British stat
utes.
