Dun's Review May shows surge in insurance induced defaults
The Dun and Company May report notes 99 commercial failures totaling 1598 in defaulted indebtedness, driven mainly by a single insurance adjustment after the San Francisco disaster. Manufacturing defaults rose to 273 with 3202 in amount, while miscellaneous and real estate related failures increased, and ten banks and trust companies suspended with 1,799.28 in indebtedness. The general outlook improved modestly as rains revived farming confidence and money market strength tempered speculative excesses.
