DIsHON0RED HIS CHECKS.
s. Wachstein Suing Germania Bank
for $1,000 Dnmnges.

luz SPbfbUU
S. Wachstein, a jeweler whose place
of business is on Broughton street, filed
suit against the Germania Bank in the
City Court yesterday. He wants $500
damages for what he declares to have
been the wrongful and tortious act
of the bank.
The plaintiff alleges in his petition
that on July l he drew his check on
the Germania Bank, in favor of NJ. j.
Averbeck of New York, for $42.66. The
check was sent to New York, and in
due course reached Savannah again
and was presented to the bank for
payment. Payment was refused on the
ground that there were not sufficient
funds to the credit of the drawer, and
the check was protested for non-pay-
ment and sent back to New York.
From New York it was sent a second
time to Savannah, this time directly
to the bank, and a second time, and
for the reason previously alleged. pay
ment was refused. The plaintiff
charges that on both of these occa-
sions there were ample funds to 1his
credit in the bank to enable it to pay
the check.
In the meantime, having no knowl-
edge of the fact that his check had
been dishonored, he sent a second
check to Averbeck in New York which,
on account of the fate of the first,
was returned to him without any eff
fort being made to collect it,
Upon the dishonor of Wachstein's
check Averbeck placed the account
against him in the hands of the Jew
elers Association and Board of Trade,
which sent it on to its attorneys in
Savannah for collection. When it was
presented by these attorneys, Wach-
stein alleges 1t was promptly paid.
The association through which the
collection was made is a credit as well
as a soliciting agency, to which the
large majority of the wholesale jewel
ers of the country apply for statements
as to the solvency and commercial
standing of the retailers with whom
they do business.
The plaintiff charges that the action
of the bank in refusing to pay hiss
check. when he had ample funds on
deposit with which to meet it, was
wrongful and most damaging to him,
and in it's direst result has been the
cause of a serious loss in his COM
mercial rating. For this reason he
brings his suit for damages. He is
represented by Alexander & Hitch.

WILL TAKE $500 YARDS.
No Protests Heard From Price Street
Property Owners.

Price street property owners and res
idents have begun a study of the brick
being deposited along the street to be
later laid as paving. Thus far there
have been no objections to the brick.
On the contrary, the only expressions
that have been heard have been of
satisfaction.
About $4,000 square yards of the 5O,-
900 ordered will be used for paving
Price and Habersham streets. The
understanding was that so many of
the $4,000 square yards as might be
needed would be purchased at the price
that was agreed upon at the time the
contract was given to the Tennessee
Paving Brick Company.
Some of the brick from the Chatta-
nooga' company have already been laid
on Little Jones, Berrien and Tattnall
street. The pavements there show up
in excellent shape. and it is not though
that any fault will be found with those
that are to be laid with similar brick
on Price and Habersham streets.

Was Cochnower Drowned ?

A special from Washington to the
Baltimore Sun of Tuesday says:
1.-THE body of the young man found
in the Potomac river off Bryan's Point
on March 8 is believed to be that Of
George w. Cochnower, who left his
home in thi, city just four weeks ago
yesterday. George +. Cochnower,
father of the youth, went down the
river in the police boat this morning
and had the body exhumed. He was
unable to identify it on account of its
condition, but said the trousers and
vest were similar to those worn by his
son. Young Cochnower was employed
as night clerk at the Mount Vernon
Hotel. About week after his disap-
pearance he was seen on Pennsylvania
avenue. Report later located HIM in
Baltimore. He was married to a
young woman from the neighborhood
of Greencastle Pa, during the Christ
mas holidays. At that time he hoped
to obtain a position in the Pension
Office. He failed, and became de-
spondent."
Young Mr.. Cochnower was well
known in Shepherdstown, where he
was associated with his father for a
time in an effort to run the manufac-
turing shops some yearsago. He was
in the United States army for a time
and served in the Philippines for a
year or two. He spent part of last
summer in Shepherdstown.
Information received by the REGIS
TER yesterday from Washington is to
the effect that there is little doubt
that the body is that of Cochnower.
The identification was practically COM
plete, further details having been to
the effect that it was certainly his
body. The elder Cochnower is salts
fed that it is his son, and he has writ
ten to the dead mans wife at Green
castle, expressing this belief. An eff
fort will be made to have the body
buried in Arlington Cemetery, az he
had been in the army.
