FAILURES
For the Month of November
as Reported by Dun
and Company.

NEW YORK, Dec There were
1,lT5 commercial failures reported
to r. G&Dua and Company during
the montl, Of November. While this
number has been exceeded in several
of the earlier months or this year,
it is the largest since July. and 1t
compares unfaSorably with Novem-
berroflthe three preceding years
namely, r,lg5 in 1911, j, COS in 1s10
and $50 in 1903. The amount OF
the liabilities OF these commercial
failures in November was SIS. $50
1906, comparing with sl5,266,S37 in
1911 and Sill, 23l.OG1 in 1910. The
failure record thus continues to be
an exhibit OF high number OF de-
faults combined with large total
of liabilities. a development which
is In marked contrast TO the other
records of the business situation.
The high total OF defaults is chiefly
due TO the large number of small
failures-those for less than $780,
900, OF these small failures there
were l,l53 during the month, the
largest total in a number OF years.
The total liabilities of these small
defaults amounted TO $685., $50.
which also breaks the record of re-
cent years. OF the larger defaults
those for 100000 or more
there were twenty-five aggregatmg
s5,75O,715, which is considerably
less than last year, when the total
was s7,o17,772, and also less than
\ 1907 and in 1908. but in excess
of other recent years.
The manufacturing defaults dur
ing November numbered 327 against
|2S6 in 1911, 200 in 1910 and 247
IN 1909 Manufacturing liabilities
mounted to s7,23o,614 against &c.
S67,S47 in 1911 and s4,59S,689 in
1910. OF these manufacturing de-
'aults 316 we're for less than $780,
100, their aggregate liabilities being
s3,974,512. Both in number and In
amount of Liabilities, these small
manufacturing defaults broke all
recent records. There were eleven
manufacturing defaults for $780,
900 or more, aggregating $685.
Y 90, as compared with 81 ,446, 532 in
1911 and $1,34O,OO0 in 1910. OF
the fifteen different branches of
business represented in the manu-
ACQUIRING class eight reported de-
creased liabilities and seven in
creased liabilities. In machinery
md tools the Liabilities amounted to
'l,756,2oO against $61S,613 in
1911. There was also a large in
crease in clothing and millinery, the
liabilities in which were. $SS9,3OO
against $27471S q year ago. In
Gather, shoes and harness there
were liabilities of $4,000 against
sa7,3$S in 1911. On the other
hand. woolens, carpets and knit
goods reported liabilities of only
100000 against s652.OOO year
ago. Lumber, carpenters and coop
ers reported liabilities OF $966,7O0
against $9s7,9S7 last year.
In the trading division there were
SOC defaults. comparing with III,
IN 1911, 69S in 1910 and GO in
1899. The trading liabilities were
s6,751,S9l. comparing with &c.,.
541,7S9 in 1911 and $5,471,382 in
1910. OF these SOC trading failures
sol were for less than 500, 600
the largest number in recent years,
with the exception OF S34 in 1907
and $40 in 1908. The total of these
small trading defaults was So, 1922
