The confidence man stared at him and

the innocence aud benevolence of a Jersey

UP TO TIE MARKET.

The financial Situation Favprable to BOZ
rowers-smaIl Bills Scarce.
The local money market is working toward
greater ease. Any reasonable amount Oh
money can be borrowed at per cent. Routine
business Yesterday was up to the mark. small
bills were scarce. The exchanges were S2SOA-
769 43 and the balances $408, or 81.
An interesting decision was recently rendered
by the English Court of Appeals in case
arising out of the practice Of exchanging
checks. The action was instituted by the WlIts
and Dorset Banking Company against Gus
toner named Cook to recover from him tne
balance Of an overdrawn bank account. Inc
defendant was customer Of the bank and KEPT
a deposit account with it. In the course OF the
month of April last, he exchanged checks Win
a customer of his own named Bruce, to tne
amount of ESQ. The latter were drawn
upon Messrs. Hancock. at Wiveliscomoe,
and upon presentation were dis
honored, Cooks own checks having
been presented and cashed. The result was
that Cooks account was overdrawn anu m ESo .
bank sued Cook to make good the amount 1ne
defendant met the action by two pleas, nIst,
that the bank had accepted in satisfaction
check which defendant had obtained from
Bruce; and, secondly, that the bank had caused
delay anG exhibited negligence by sending
Bruces checks mp to the Clearing House IN
London instead of presenting them the next
day at the bank whereon they were drawn;
that If this latter course had been adopted the
defendant would have known Of the dishonor
of the earlier checks and would thereupon nave
ceased exchanging checks with Bruce. -
In the lower Court Justice Wills found IoL
the plaintiff for the amount sued for. An ap-
plication for leave to appeal was made, when
was granted subject to the condition that the
defendant should bring the full amounI
claimed into court. To this the defendant de.
INJURED and took exception to the portion OF
the order requiring the deposit Of the amount
in court An appeal from 1t was taken, on tne
hearing of which Justice Day of the Court OF
Appeals said he thought of sending the checKS
through the clearing house was the usual
course Of business, which was greatly to the
convenience, not only of bankers, but OF the
public, and the Court in giving judgment held
that there was no evidence of any laches, ano
they expressed the opinion that Justice wis
had exercised a wise discretion. On both the
points raised the onus lay on the defendant
and if he wished to insist upon them, he mus
show his bona hdes by bringing the money into
court.
