From all parts of the Empire the same tale is told of the utter standstill of business, and the
numbers of bankruptcies, aggravated by the knowledge of the still greater number which are merely masked by one or other of the forms of which the inadequate commercial codes of Russia so freely admit. For example, in all those districts which are under martial law that is to say, the great part of the area of All the Russias-it is impossible to protest bills, the "state of war" being the excuse, legally put forward by the defaulter, whố | may or may not be actually in a position to meet his liabilities. As bills are practically the only medium of commercial currency in Russia-cheques being unknown to all intents and purposes-this one fact is sufficient to throw considerable light on the state of things now prevailing throughout the Russian Empire in the domain of commerce. The banks have everywhere either stopped entirely or reduced to a useless minimum all credits and accommodations, even to safe cus tomers. "Persons who had been in the habit of receiving at their banks thirty to fifty thous and roubles are now unable to get as much as two or three thousand."
