Bank Checks Little Used I'm Ger
many.


many.
Considering the progress made in
Germany during the last two or
three decades in all matters of com
merce and industry, IL is a remark
able fact that th' system of making
and receiving payments by checks,
so we'll developed in the United
States and othet countries, is so
little known here.
A comparatively small percentages
of leading merchants and others in
the largest cities of the German EN-
pire use this convenient method of
financial settlements. In smaller
towns payments are usually in gold,
silver or paper currency. Re-
mittances from one part of the en-
pire to I another can be made by
money order up TO the limit of 500
marks or $1,000; amounts beyond
that sum must be sent in money let
ters or packages. How the German
public regards payments by check IS
demonstrated by the fact that dur
ing last year the worlds trade of
Germany required circulation OF
gold and currency to the extent of
"A per cent of the total sum involved
The German government pays out
annually for salaries to officials the
sum of SSS, 100000 marks, or $211,-
$4,000 in cash. Considering that
proportionate sum must be drawn
from circulation and stored away for
several days every month, and that
II will only gradually be returned to
circulation during the next month
by the payment made by such Off
GERS, II can readily be seen what adj
vantage would accrue to the money
market II such amounts were dis
bursed by checks.
The principal objection to the
check system is that there are no
laws governing the issuance and cir
of the check. Upon the
solicitation of financial ex-
perts and progressive merchants the
government has now prepared the
outline of a bill which is to be sub
nitted to the next Reichstag. The
proposed law is supposed I'd meet
Ill demands, also to assure positive
protection TO the maker as well as
o the holder OF a check. In order
o make It acceptable TO the ma
ority of the people the bill provides |
or entire freedom from taxation. |
Z is hoped that the passage of such
/ law will make the system OF pay
ng by checks more popular.-Con-

Cunning Fast Indian swindlers.

Consul General VIM. II. Michael
furnishes a report from Calcutta ex-
planning tho skillful methods OF
some of the native dealers in substi-
tuting by means OF spurious brands
and packages, counterfeits for Inn
ported articles. lie writes:
The cunning Indian has demon
strated that putting up liquors in
labeled and capsuled bottle, with
special stamps on the corks, is no
protection at all to the high-grads =
goods thus treated. In fact, these
precautions simply make the way OF
the swindler easy and profitable.
Hotels and individuals who import
their own goods derive more or less
comfortable assurance OF the purity
OF the goods from the elaborate
capsules and marks, but those who
buy goods from the bazars can have
no such assurance. These bazaar
dealers make a great show OF carry
ing only superior imported goods.
and exhibit the capsuled and gaud-
lily labeled bottles as proof of their
claim. They always offer their
goods, the same brands, at a lower
price than can be had at reputable
European establishments, and ex-
plain that their expenses OF doing
business are much lower than their
competitors, and hence they can sell
at lower prices. But the fact Is they
are selling spurious and really vile
goods In bottles that are genuine.
The method of procedure by rep
resentative of concerns dealing In
counterfeit articles Is 10 form the
acquaintance OF head walters OF
hotels and the "khansamas" OF pri-
yate establishments where first class
wines and liquors are used, and by
a satisfactory bribe secure capsules
undamaged or slightly damaged. A
good price Is paid for bottles with
labels intact and for corks with the
brand on the side or bottom that
can be used, But the corks are not
essential. The faker can use new
corks and mark them with his own
metal die. With supply of cap
sules, bottles and labels and corka,
the counterfeiter, with supply OF
German spirits, brandy aud whisky
essence, etc. is ready for business.
Skillful blending follows, the filling

corked, a fine brand from some 9th.
er country Is ready for the seeker
after high-grade wine or liquor
which he believes is the same article
that he would have 10 pay quarter
or third more for at reliable deal
er's, II the buying OF wines and
liquors is left to the khansama, he
will invariably buy these OF these
native dealers. because he can get
a larger "rake-on." lie will show
his master the bill and expatiate on
how much he had saved for his
master by buying at the baEar or

who can undersell the European
merchants.
