How to Indorse a Check.

western Banker.
There are several ways of indorsing
check for deposit. Some simply write
their names across the back without
specifying that the proceeds are to be
paid TO anybody in particular. This is
the least desirable OF any way, for
check So Endorsed passes from hand to
hand like bank note, and if it be lost
In the mail or stolen, it may be
cashed by the bank upon which it
was drawn as if the check had
been originally drawn to bearer. More
over, when check is once Endorsed in
blank, that is, by the payee simply
writing his name across the back, the
payment cannot be restricted by any
subsequent Endorsement. For example:
lt would be useless for the bank where
the check is deposited to indorse: ..Pav
to the order or such and such bank"
naming its out-of-tOwn correspondents.
Such an attempt to restrict the payment
OF the check would not amount to any
thlng after the first payee had indorsed
IN blank. A very favOrite way to i'll
dorse check is For deposit only
10 the credit Of" This is good
enough as far as it goes. The
trouble is that such an indorse-
ment transfers the title to the check to
the bank where it is deposited, and if it
be followed up by similar Endorsements
as IL passes from bank to bank on the
way 10 its final destination, the title is
transferred at every stage. Now, the
check having reached the bank on which
1t is drawn, it is paid, and the money
starts on the return trip. If at any
point on the way back a bank should
fail with the money in its possession
tnat money would go into the general
fund to be distributed pro rata among
the creditors. But if the original hold,
er of the check were to inaOrse
in this way, collect for account Of or
Coiiect Tor my account" then these
words would operate as notice to all
concerned that the original holder had
not parted with title to the check, and
THAT all subsequent holders were agents
for the purpose OF collecting only. Ii
after the cneck has been cashed and the
proceeds on the way back, any bank
should fail with. the proceeds in its
possession. the original holder can
follow the proceeds of his check
and compel the receiver to paw
over the amount to him in full. 1t is
worth while noting that checks should
be cashed promptly. This is case in
which it may truly be said that delays are
dangerous, and sometimes fatal. The
bank may fail OF the drawer NAV fail.
or his funds may be attached in some
legal proceeding, or the drawer may

only state in the Union which provides
by act of legisi AZURE that bank NAV

death OF the drawer.

SAW THEM PASSING.
Two Hundred and Thirty-Four
Trains in Two Days.

KANSAS CITY, Aug. THE pilgrim
age of Knights Templar to Denver
seemed to have reached its climax last
night when the officials of the union
depot stated that there had passed
through their hands, bound for the
Conclave City, 104 trains. That record,
however, was beaten today by just
thirty trains. The number of passen-
gers on those trains can only be eSt-
mated, but not at all accurately. The
union depot was bedlam from mid
night last night to the same hour
tonight. 1t was risk to disembark from
trains, for the tllrong OH the plat
form was so great that progress through
it and back again was a crusade worthy
the mettle of any Knight. Wise people
stayed by their trains and Sweltered in
the heated stations, rather than face the
mob on the platform in an attempt to
reach fresh air, while depot officials
were taxed to their utmost in receiving
and dispatching trains, transferring
specials from one road to another and
answering the questions of the travel
ers. At O'Clock no accidents had been
reported, and the depot officials state
that the enormous business OF the day
had been handled with reasonable dis
patch, although. of course, there were
some minor but veXatiouS delays.

HOW 1T STANDS.

Hot Weather Initiating Some
what Against the Billiard Hand
leap.
Forty-one games remain to be played
in the DAILY GLOBE amateur handicap
billiard tournament. Probably fifteen
of these will be played the present
week. 1t is not Mr.: Foley's idea to
hurry the candidates for the challenge
cup during this warm weather, and not
over three games will be scheduled for
each night this week. The races are
attracting so much attention that it is
not policy to run1counter. Next week
the tournament will be the only sport
ing event to interest the devoteeS of the
Twin Cities.
At the present Daugherty, the Min
neapOliS entry. has the best show of
winning the cup, but he has still to meet
the strongest players in the series, and
may fall down. Thayer stands second
and Estis third in the percentage, and
Glow, Capen, Bingham. Dickinson and
Wilder are still in sight. Any one of
these has all excellent opportunity OF
winning the second Or third prize.
This evenings card is goDd one, and
| will doubtless draw big crowd of the
votaries of the pastime.. Capen IS
scheduled to meet either Ronald
or Hatch. and it should be eX-
planned in this connection that
Hatch is held subject to Ronald's de-
fault, because the latter has been ill
| and unable to play the past few days.
Should he recover sufficiently he will
play, and if not then Hatch will be sub
stituted. Summers will play Foley. and
Glow and Dickinson will play the last
game of the day. This will be a feature
event. for with his handicap allowance
of twenty points Dickinson is mighty
liable to make it very interesting for
the speedy Glow.
The table appended shows the games
| won by each candidate, and from whom,
while the blank spaces show the games
that are still to be played:

MILITIA AT DUQUESNE
May Be Called Into Action Again
Today.

PITTsBUEG, Pa, Aug. THE sew
enth week of the great strike begins to-
morrow, with no particular change at
Homestead since last Sunday excepting
that the company has more men at
work. Outwardly the strikers are firm
as ever, but many privately express a
desire TO return to work, and say they
are only deferred by the influence OF
the majority. The company now has
fully 1.200 men in the mill, but many of
these would have to give way to the
old men if they would decide to go
back. The company has promised
that the new men will not be disturbed,
but of course, this refers only to the
ones whose work is satisfactory. The
three regiments Of the national guard
are still on duty, and at least two regi-
mentS Will remain AS long as there is
any danger Of an outbreak. An attempt
will be made 10 start the Duquesne
plant in the morning. The furnaces
have been lighted and charged, and
everything is in readiness to resume
operations. Master Mechanic Miller
stated tonight that 90 per cent of the old
men had returned to work in the
mechanical department already. and he
expected at least 800 men tomor-
row. 1t is the intention to start
the blooming, converting billet and
mechanical departments. VicePresi
dent Carney, of the Amalgamated asso-
citation is not inclined to believe Mill
er's statement, and says he is confident
that not one man will go back. The re-
SidentS of DuqueSne are greatly excited
tonight and fear trouble. They appre-
hent that If any of the men attempt to
go back into the mill an effort will be
made by some Of the strikers to prevent
them from doing so. In the event of
this collision with the militia is proba-
Dle, as the two companies Of the six
teenth regiment are still on guard on
the hill above the mill. There is no
change 1T the Union mills in this city,
and no effort has yet been made to re-
sumo operations at the Beaver Falls
plant.

1t is said at the Office of the agents IN

as many of the old companies as Will
take risks at all insist upon 6 to per
cent premiums in cases for which there
may be no automatic Sprinklers, and
from to 4 per cent in cases in which
the SprinklerS are in use. The COM
pany proposes to write them up to
$4,000 at from to per cent Ill all
cases in which the insured will adopt
the automatic sprinkler and will make
such reasonable changes in the direc-
ton of safety as may be required.
The new company will decline term
policies only issued from year to year.

usual custom, in which three-year pol

POURING THROUGH CHICAGO
Greatest Crowd OF the Year Nov
ing on Denver.


CHICAGO, Aug. Denver bound
Knights Templar and cut-rate tourists
filled the depots today. From every
point of the compass, except due West,
the incoming trains poured hurrying
mass of transitory humanity upon the
platforms, and every train for Denver
carried away its overloaded cars. and
still the crowds packed the waiting
rooms and sidewalks. 1t seemed as if
every man, woman and child who could
raise week off and S12 had Denver
ticket. From daylight until late
tonight the Sir Knights and
ladies and the fair sex was
conspicuously numerous-passed Den
yerward through Chicago. Great vesti-
bule trains rolled into the city bearing
Eastern communicates, and men in
fatigue uniforms climbed out to stretch
their legs, sniff ozone and then Chamber
into the veStibuleS.
1t is estimated that every railroad
running into Chicago landed 20 per cent
more trains than usual during the last
few days. All trains have had extra
cars added and everything Oh wheels
has been pressed into service. But the
immense number of people bound for
Denver has taxed the Western roads

augmented the crowds to an extent
beyond the ability of the railroads
to handle them. Most of the
Western traffic today was due to the
cut rates. Twelve dollars for ride to
Denver and back again brought mob
of people. The Knights Templar, whose
transportation had been contracted for
some weeks ago, were comfortably
transported, but the oyer-crowded cars
which held "the cheap fares" bore teSti-
mony to the discomforts in store for
their passengers.

South and Southeast brought in extra
trains, the regular trains being all much
longer than usual, and some coming in
two sections. Most of the travellers
passed through without stopping. though
a few spent the day here. Tonight
each of the five roads leading from here
to the present Mecca of the Templars
has sent out extra trains, laden for the
most part with citizens taking advan-
tage of the reduced rates. 1t is esti-
mated that today's passengers are more

CRITICAL FOR CORN,
Rain Needed liz Kansas in Forty-
Eight Hours

TOPEKA. Kan, Aug. 7.-Since issuing
his regular July crop report. Secretary
Moh!er, of the state board of agriculture
here, received advices that large part
of the corn crop in the central and
western parts of the state is in
so critical condition that it
will turn out a nearly COM
plete failure unless coplous rains
fall within fOrty-eight hours. Abundant
rains fell the latter part of July, which
it was presumed at the time would
insure the crop against danger from
drought. Since that time, however, no
rain has fallen, and the weather has
been intensely hot. In addition hot
winds have been blowing their usual
deadly effect upon corn. Secretary
Mohler says the corn shows stronger
vigorous growth, but that the ears cam
not mature under the present conditions.
A rain within the next two days will
save the crop. Without it corn in the
central and southwestern districts will
be BIT only for fodder.
