The Milwaukee Wisconsin, thus
describes a heavy financial transac-
tion:
Just after banking hours an elderly,
well dressed gentleman entered one of
the city banks and asked if they we're
ready for business. Upon being told
that they were, the man proceeded
very leisurely, aud in a business-like
manner, TO draw a check, which he
passed to the paying teller. Upon
looking at the signature the teller was
somewhat surprised to find it that Of
no less distinguished person than @.
Vanderbilt, and the check was drawn
for the very handsome little sum of
ten million dollars. The teller looed at
the man, who appeared very much
unconcerned and as if it were an every
day business with him to draw those
little checks. A second view satisfied
the teller that the man was insane, and
that he might be dangerous customer
to deal with, for insane men are always
supposed to be, even if they are not.
The teller asked the gentleman if he
was in a hurry, as it would take some
time to count the money, and they
might have to send to another bank
to get part of it. The stranger said
no. He had come on to Milwaukee to
buy the Detroit & Milwaukee Railroad,
and had made the purchase for $l0,-
900, 900. If they would certify the
check it would answer all purposes.
He went on to say that having bought
the road he proposed to make it the
great line of travel between Milwaukee
and the cosst-that he should put on
line Of boats running across the lake
twice a day and connecting with the
road-the boats to be seven miles long
and to make the trip in two hours, and
to have 8 band of music on each end.
The gentleman was talking very excited
ly about what he was going to do with
the route, and how profitable he would
make it, and what a great thing it would
be for Milwaukee, when q policeman
who had been sent for came in. The
man proved to be a Detroit gentleman,
who was on his way home in charge
of some relatives, and who was suffer
ing from temporary insanity. He was
perfectly harmless, and went awaJ
quietly. He created something of ;
sensation in the bank for a few mo
, msnts,
