he piled it with good effeckt, and the thir-

This IL a nu wa Nv doom bi3ness at

by Checking Heavily Against Park
National Bank.
New York, July 4.-George NJ. Valen-
tine, cashier of the Middesex County
Bank of Perth Amboy n. j., which was
closed to-day, has surrendered himself
and is now in Jail on account of the short
age in the banks funds which has been
variously estimated all the way 10 $l65, ESQ.
The affair caused CONSERVATION and dis
may among the business men of Perth
Amboy where the Middlesex County
Bank was considered as strong as the
Eternal Hills. So panlc-stricken did the
residents Of Perth Amboy become when Il
was learned that the Mddesex County
Bank had failed to open for business as
usual this morning that crowds surround
ed the Perth Amboy Savings institution,
but the run was of brief duration.
on Monday last Cashier Valentine evil
IDENTIFY concluded that he could no longer
conceal the shortage at the Middlesex
County Bank. In the morning ne tod Pres
ldent Watson that he was detained, but
that he would appear at noon The bank
had then opened for business. and Mr..
Watson, who was taking the absent cash
iers place, discovered that there should
have been some 1880 in bills on hand to
commence operations that morning These
he could not find.
An investigation of the banks accounts
indicated Immediately that they had been
jugglcd for more. 1t was discovered that
Valentine had checked heavily against the
Park National Bank of this city, a corre-
spondent of the Middlesex Bank, but the
figures on The stubs of his checkbook did
not correspond 10 those on the checks
themselves the checks calling for more
than the stubs recorded. This method of
finauciering ruined the bank.
Cashier Valentine returned to Perth Am
boy from brief absence, and was ar
rested
President Watson is of the opinion that
the cashiers defalcation will amount to
at least $l25, coo. Where the money went
is not known, as the cashier is said to
have been moderate in his tastes and haD-
its of life. Valentines bond was fixed for
$50, 600. His relatives are wealthy, and ID
is said they will endeavor to make good
the shortage.

washington, July 14.-Commissioner Will
son Of internal revenue has issued clrcu-
lar absolutely prohibiting banks from af-
fixing stamps to checks unstamped when

10 collectors, the commissioner says:
"You are directed to notify the banks
that are guilty of stamping unstamped
checks that. if the practice is not imme-
diately discontinued they viii be reported
to the United States district attorney for
prosecution.
The instruction contained in Treasury

1898. TO the effect that there was no OBJ
lection to the affXiug by the bank of
requisite stamps to an unstamped check
presented for payment is hereby revoked.
"This instruction was given TO meet an
emergency Immediately proceeding the
taking effect of the stamp act of July 1.
1898, in order 10 obviate the necessity of
returning by the banks thousands of un-
stamped checks Issued by drawers In ig-
noranee Of the law. The law being now
generally understood there is no further
need Of such permission"
This action was taken upon information
that certain banks had adopted The prac-

Detroit People May Ride on Cars for
Little Money.


Detroit, July H.--Three-cent fares ars
announced to-day on the fronts of Detroit
street cars in the places where amusement
advertising signs are usually carried. This
sudden voluntary reduction is the result
of decision of Gov. Plngree and Tom
L. johnson to give the people an object
lesson upon what they may look forward
to If the present plans of the sale of all
the Detroit railways to the Detroit Mu-
nlcipal Railway Company. in behalf of the
city, win out. The 3-cent tickets sold to-
day at five for 10 cents are so worded
that their use for full payment of their
fares can be Withdrawn at any time.
The city Is in furor over the present
situation. All the newspapers and nearly
all the prominent citizens are opposing the
Pingree plan, and II Is now claimed that
the majority of citizens oppose II on the
ground that three-cent fares and quasi mu-
nicipal ownership Will fail to pay the ex-
penses and the Sl7O00000 proposed TO be
paid for the roads; ana that they will. IL
purchased, revert TO the present owners.
Gov. Pingrce claims that the roads will
certainly pay off their purchase price I'M
der three-cent fares. He Is having circu-
lars distributed on the streets giving his
side Of the controversy.
