during that period in excess of all deposits
during the same period. No part OF me
overdraft had ever been paid back; IL 10 was as
worthless paper deposited on May y, 1888,
but the bank never received any part OF
the overdraft Mr.. Winter objected to this
statement as a conclusion or the witness,
but II was permitted to remain. The wit

overdraft was made, and they were pro;

of them were either signed by A. S. Reed,
treasurer, p. b. Coffin, secretary, or f. A
Coffin, president. The witness said he had
been employed by the receiver since the
failure of the bank and that none or the
paid since the appointment OF the receiver.
He was Their asked to turn to the account
May 9, 1893. He said, referring to that ac-
count, and considering the $4,000 or paper
deposited as money, the bank was indebted
to the cabinet company in the sum OF

company again had an overdraft of So
1O6.Os. This overdraft was produced by
checks drawn by the cabinet company from

made good by the deposit of $1,000 in
drafts These drafts were placed in the
bank, with instructions to the receiving
teller not to send them forward for col !.

said he had not heard the instructions
given not TO send them forward for collec-

A TAX ON PLUMBERS.
Feature Of the New Ordinance Al
legged to He Objectionable.

Chairman Murphy of the Council COM
mittee on public health, yesterday handed
the plumbing inspection ordinance to Mayor
Denny for him to consider before the COM
mittee makes any report on it, Mr. Muir
ply does not believe the ordinance is legal
as it now stands, and wants the Mayor to
read it over and decide whether he would
recommend its passage as it now stands
or would recommend that another Or
dinance be drawn up. The city has no
money with which to pay a plumbing m
spector, and this ordinance provides a tax
in the form of a license on plumbers for
the purpose of paying the inspectors sal
ary AIR. Murphy thinks this is not legal
and also considers il simply a ruse by
which the larger plumbers can gradually
freeze out the smaller ones. Neither does
he think there is any necessity for a
plumbing inspector.
