day recently Mr.. Eckstein went to the
Central National Bank in New York,
where he is a depositor, and drew
check for $4,000, asking the cashier, Mr..
Young, for bills of large denomination.
He was given nine 81 600 bills and two
$500 bills. Then he asked the cashier
to have them put in large envelope, as
he wanted to send the money by express.
This was done, and the parcel was hand
ed to him. Then, according to the story
told by the cashier, the cotton merchant
took a pen and marked the envelope S5,-
600. That done, he returned it to the
cashier and requested him to forward 1t
to Savannah along with the rest of the
bank business. The envelope was direct

took it and Mr.. Eckstein left the bank.
