A New and Dangerous Species of Forger,
Successfully Attempted in This City.


Successfully Attempted in This City.
A bogus bank check of more than usual
significance has been passed into one of
the city banks in the regular lodgment
account of customer. It's popularity IS
that it bore forged cashiers certitication.
The check was as follows:
No. 1851 ROCHESTER, N. Y, May 16, 1891.
Rochester City National Bank OF Commerce,
Pay to the order of James Mills fifteen dollars
sis. JAMES HARRIS.
Along the side was printed mo. 25
Powers Block 1t was endorsed by James
Miller and also by the unfortunate bank
customer who paid it. Across the face of
the hogus check is an oval stamp the edge
in green ink and the following words in
red ink certified May 18th, 1891, G. b.
Miller, cashier"
The Wilmington bank sent the check
away in regular course for collection. Word
was received yesterday week from its regu-
lar correspondents.
No such bank in Rochester. This check is
supposed to be n forgery, as there have been u
number of ihom presented in Rochester Tor
payment.
OF course the Wilmingtonian who
cashed the check loses his money.
1t is understood that the Rochester banks
have been receiving similar bogus checks
right along for collection. The reply has
been similar in each case. The Rochester
bankers request that as much publicity in
the facts be given the public as is possible.
The man who passed the forgery is de
scribed as of medium height, slight build,
light complexion, light hair, smooth face
and wearing a dark suit Of clothes.
