AN ECHO OF BANKERS MEETING.
According to Rhode Island Law Mr..
Haekett Was Corset.

According to Rhode Iland Law Mr..
Haekett Was Corset
1t will interest the bankers and 9th
ers who attended the meeting of the
Bankers Of Eastern Pennsylvania in
thiS city of June Il to know OF recent
act Of the Rhode Island legislature
bosring upon paper falling due on o
holiday. The act referred to is as fol-
lows.
That all notes, drafts, checks, accep.
tances, bills Of exchange, bonds or other
evidences Of indebtedness falling due on
Sunday or on holiday shall be considered
due on the next following business day.
That banking hours shall end at IL o'clock,
noon, on each Saturday, and Saturday
Shall FOR the acceptance and maturity of
paper referred to in the act, be treated as
a holiday, but this section does not apply
to checks or demand drafts on banks or
bankers presented before twelve noon on
Saturday. That the act shall take effect
on July ], 1894, and shall apply to all
notes, etc, executed and dated after the
passage Of the act, and which will fall due
on or after July |, 1894,
AT the Scranton meeting, Mr.. Ainey,
of Eeston, contended that similar
Pennsylvania law applied only to such
banks as closed at IL o'clock noon, ON
tho legal Saturday hGlf.holiday. He
held that commercial paper presented
or received for collection ut n bank
which does not close until o'clock D.
m on Saturday, should legally be paid
that particular day.
Mr.. Hackett aud others disagreed
with Mr.. Ainey and saidthat the PENN
sylvania law applies to all banks doing
business in the state, no matter what
is their announced closing hour, This
latter view prevailed and it was voted
as the sense OF the meeting that banks
should close at noon on Saturdays. Mr..
Ainey, however, did not change his
opinion,

to this city to purchase Holson, but be-
cause he had an idea that tins Lehigh
Valley railroad touched this city en- =
route for Buffalo, but found ont when
no reached Wilkes. Barre tnat it did
not. The price on Hodson was raised
from $500 to 5000 Yesterday. but that
did not deter Mr.. Barnis, vino tele-
graphed from Buffalo last night TO
draw on N. L. Young, president Of the
National league, for $500, and send
Hodfon on at once.
A telegram WIS received from Man.
ager Swift telling the directors not TO
sell Hodson. At o'clock this morn
ing the directors had not definitely
settled as to what they will do. BY
selling Hodson they will practically
leave the club with only ono pitcher,
FIanaghan, and they dislike to 10 that.

A clever attempt at swlndle was
made yesterday afternoon upon E c.
Coursen by the use Of an Innocent mes
senger boy and the forged endorsement
OF Mrs. James Archbpld's name to q
worthless check IorSi7.
About o'clock postal TELEGRAPH h
boy handed Mr.. CouTsen, at his store,
sealed envelope containing check
for $47 made payable TO Mrs. James
Arcn Dald's order, and endorsed with
her name. An accompanying letter,
written in feminine hand. stated that
Mr.. Archibald was out OF town, ths banks
were closed and Mrs. Archibald. whose
name was signed would appreciate
Mr.. Caursen's kindness If bo would
cash the check and send the money by
the BOY. To add to the plausibiity Of
Tho letter, it contained at It's head in
raised colOred letters the address "42l
Jefferson avenue" and was an exact
fac simile of Mrs. ArchbGld's private
note paper
TIE SCHEME WAS PLAUSIBLE.
The boy ia reply to n queotion said
the note was handed him by Thomas
Archibald, Mrs. Archball's son. at the
corner of Mulberry and Vine street. 1t
was afterward learned that the call for
the boy was received by telephone
from Chittendeu's drug store. The
sharper sent the call, met the hoy, gave
him tha note as stated and evidently
intended to intercept him on his re.
turn with the money.
Mr.. Coursen's suspicious were ar
reused, but he put $47 in his pocket
aud went with the messenger to Mr.,
Archbald's residence Thomas Arch
bald was there, as WAS also his father,
who according to the note was out CT
town. The letter and check were pro-
nonpced as forgsries.
The messenger was unable to give q
good description Of the man who gave
him the note, as the fellow had hur
ried through with the transaction wi tn
the apparent intention Of not giving the
messenger chance to describe him
infinitely afterwRrd. He wore well
fitting long cutaway black coat, light
trousers, brown derby and tan shoes
TheIboy could not describe other par
ticuar5 OF his attire or remember his
facial appearance.
The police were notified and imme-
diately begsn work on the case. Mr.
Coursen drove from depot to depot
took the boy with MIN to Carbondalt
early in the evening to identify the
man if found there, and was otherwise
unremitting in his efforts to apprehend
him. Up to u late hour he had mo-
been caught

The fellow must either be o resident
of Scranton, or he has been particularly
fortunate is learning the movements
of the Archibald household. 1t is 6
fact that the family intend leaving the
city as the forged letter stated. How
Mrs. Arch hbald's private letter paper
WIS obtained and the information that
Mr.. Coursen is the family's grocer
are mysteries for the police to solve,
1t all shows that the swindler is al
adept at his bnnco business or is ar
amateur of great ability.
