From the New Orleans Times


mo system Of checks can prevent a dis
honest employe from stealing" said a vet
eran business man and bank director of this
city. land the best deterrent I know Of
Is an occasional overhauling of accounts by
an outside actuary. If all hands feel that
this Is liable to happen at any moment, they
are very apt to keep straight. The strong
point about such examinations should be
their unexpectedness. 1 don't believe in the
rotation Of bookkeepers or other trusted
employees as a check one another. Good
men in the same establishment always
have an aversion to tae-bearing, and, in
nine cases out Of ten. they will fail to re-
port little things that would at once excite
their suspicion in a ledger kept by a stran-
ger. They don't want to run the risk of
making a mistake and securing the ever
lasting enmity of fellow employe. The
man who makes the inspection should be
brought If possible. from another city.
That reminds me. by the way, Of re-
markable story Of collision which was re-
lated to me lately by national bank ex-
aminer Of my acquaintance: One day he
affairs at solid old bank in a northeastern
city, when the cashier suddenly toppled
over in an apopectic fit, and died almost
instantly. His cash and accounts were
found to be absolutely correct. Some
months later the inspector dropped In to
make an examination Of another bank only
a few doors away, and the cashier promptly
slipped out side entrance and disappeared.
1t developed that he was short large
amount, and. when subsequently caught a
curious story leaked out. 1t seemed that
both cashiers were defaulters. and had been
in the habit of helping each other out with
cash to make good when the examiner
appeared. At the time the first man
dropped dead he had about $4,000 OF the
other banks money, which he had intended
to return next day. The tragedy left his
friend in terrible hole, as he had to Shout
der both shortages and when the examiner
next arrived there was nothing to do but
run His statement was confirmed by am
pie extraneous evidence. but don't believe
