Huntington, Of the Commercial Bank OF Rochester
1t was Immediately discovered that the check was
worthless. for there not the sghtest attempt at
imitation. 1t was of worry poor quality, badly
printed, and therefore altogether unlike the checks
used by the American Exchange Bank. which are
handsomely engraved. From the statements of the
bank officials 1t that the false check was pre-
sented TO the agents of the Bank of Montreal at
Ottawa, Canada by two men named Wilson and
Smith, who represented to be horse dealers.
They were introduoed BY residcnt Of Ottawa. who
undoubtedly had been imposed upon, and on

day. The Bank Of New York. which does tho busi-
ness Of the Bank OF Montreal in this city through
the Clearing House, notified the latter that the check
was worthless on Saturday afternoon. but tho news
received too late. A similar swindle was per-
petrated yesterday banking institution of Phia-
delpha. OF course tho loss In the former case falls
on the Bank Of Montreal. aud the American Exchange
Bank s In no way affected by any Of these worthless
checks. ?
