oUR CATTLE TRADE.
An Embargo Ga the Ameriran Cattle

ced March ssf.

A special to thu Boston Sunday Herald says
MFR. George G. Toff " of Washington Market,
New York, oae Of che leading cattle shippers
to Europe, received a private despatch from
the agent of bis firm, dated London, Saturday,
in which be statss that the British government
has issued an order forbildng live cattle from
the Unied States TO laoi at the ports of the
kingdom after The 2SGh inst. T0is, practically,
is an embargo on the nericaa cattle trade
with Great Britain, and will cause much loss
to clippers on this side.
On Saturday the Privy Council of the
Domioion ordered that on aud after February
18th the importation or introduction irto the
provinces of Ontario, Qafbsc, New Bruns wick,
Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island of
cattle from the United States be prohibited
for three months.
Capt Rollo, of the Erene, says that the
farmers cannot raise msat enough for the con-
sumers in England and they are positively
frightened at the competition of American beef
ard mutton.

might be assured that the coming summer and

been entered into for the transport of cattle
into Great Britain. So lArge vera those con-
tracts that hs was afraid macy of them would
never ba com pleted, as, if all we're fulfilled,
cattls would b. as cheap 10 Englard as 10
America" With regard to ths Increase of
the American trade, it was stated that thu
entire quantity of meat imported into Great
Britain in 1876 was 1916 ,632 pounds, the
money value of which WAS 81, 946,975. In 1873
it had risen to 53,66l PIG pounds, with
money value of sc 323,82O, while from

LIABILITIES.
RESOURCES.

Now, in examining bank, the examiner or
trustee should first compare the various kinds
of securities held by the bank with schedule
like the above furnished by the treasurer. IL is
presumed that the schedule represents the trus
condition Of the bank, and it is the duty Of the
examiner to ascertaip that it does correctly rep.
resent it. After carefully proving the various
securities, not from the books of the b.uk but
from thu securities themselves, his next step
should be to examine the vouchers for the ex-
psnse account, count the cash aud carefully
compare the various ledger accounts with the
totals as repreSe ed in tue schedule,
1t will be observed from the foregoing State
mant that bad Mr. Barron taken the sum of
$4,000. % al,egsd, from any item of the re-
sources of the b,uk, TO conceal his crime be
must either replace the stolaa funds By some
other security, genuine or fictitious, or he must
maize an apparent reduction of thu liabilities
OF the bank; for upon the books of the BANK
the resources" and liabilities" must always
bal4Gce. lad Mr.. Barron substituted bogus
security, the trustees would of course have dis
covered The fact at their first exanination after
the eubsttuson.
But the detectives tell us that there was
discrepancy of $4,000 between the weekly bal.
ance as kept by Mr.. Barron aud the deposit
book of the bank, the latter ehowog the lisbil-
tiles to be larger than would appear from the
former.
La proving Mr.. Barron's accounts at their ex.
ANIMATION in May 1877, did the trustees con-
pare the statement furnished them by the
treasurer with the deposit booe? If SO why
did tn not discover the discrepancy which
must have existed then If at all? Did the trus-
tres and Bank Examiner maze the same over
sight every tlme they examined the bank?
We are forced to the conclusion that they were
either very superficial in their examinations or
that they must have Known all the time about
the $4,000 which Mr.. Barron had. Which was
it?
Another point about which which the dstec-
tives have considerable to say, is the finding Of
an erasure upon Mr.. Barron's last statement tie
the Bank EnamineT. There may be an erasure
upon his sworn statement to tue examiner, but
let me call attention to the fact that the State
meut to wh Oh Mr.. Barron t. ok oath was sent
to the examiner and that the copy retained by
the bank, and concerpiug which the detectives
write, was but rough draft of the document
in question Few treasurers make up their
first draft without more or less errors, aud cou-
sequent erasures. If any statement is TO be
made upou this point, let us have original doc
uments as basis. The public have right 10
demand that facts, and not surmisss and Insin-
uations, be presented by tbs officers of the
bank. e.
