CouNrERrErf SHrNPLAsTEas-A QUESTION
, 20 Dc SErTLED.-lt appears by the Syracuse
papers that one julius Jacobs, grocer, has
\ been arrested on . charge of counterfeiting
the shinpasters Of three firms IN that city.
Blanks and counterfeit checks were found
on his premises. The evidence is conclusive
against him, it is said, but his counsel con.
tend that he cannot be convicted Of legal
offence.
It presumed that the ground of the de.
Tense is, that shinplas.ers are illegal paper,
and that the charge OF forgery will not lie in
the case. This defense was held to be good
in . case where fellow counterfeited Con-
federate scrip and bought property of the
secessionists of Virginia.
1. HAS ueen repeatedly asserted that man
could not be convicted IN the courts il detec-
ted in counterfeiting paper money which IS
issued in defiance of statutes. 1t is to he
hoped the case at Syracuse will be speedily
taken to the courts, that q decision may e
had. 1t is well that corporations and ind,-
viduals should understand it, if true that it
il. no crime to, counterfeit the notes and
checks they issue for currency.
