CHECKS FOR PAY ROLLS
NOW IN USE IN HARTFORD
Steps Taken by the Clearing House Association to Ease
 Currency stringency.

Hartford, Nov 6.-The Clearing House association has issued to the banks and to the industrial and com mercial houses of Hartford circular letter asking that the payrolls be made up by checks instead of currency. The action was taken only after careful consideration, and will doubtless pre- vent any serious shortage in the local currency supply.
 This is not the first instance of such course in Hartford, the currency shortage of 1893 giving rise to a simi- lar course which relieved the situa- tion greatly and which was satisfac- tory solution of the situation. The re- suit of the action wifi be that commer- cial and industrial houses with large payrolls, instead of drawing on the banks for currency, will issue certified checks, stamped Payable through the Hartford Clearing House" and these checks, in denominations of $2o, $1O, $5, $2 and $1. will serve as money, in stores, etc For instance, if pur- chaser tenders a $20 check for s4 worth of goods, he will receive in return checks for s1O, $5 and s1. Any small change win, of course, be paid in cur rency. The checks, to save constant endorsement, will be made payable to "bearer."
 The Clearing House association took this action at the instance of several of the banks which supply currency for a number of large payrolls. Tho impossibility of gaining currency from outside the city and the tendency of the man with small savings to hoard his currency, would operate, in com I fparatively short period, to create an embarrassing local shortage, should the issue of currency continue unre- strioted. To save such a situation the association has taken this protective step, which is explained in the circu- lar letter as follows:
 The Hartford Clearing House Associa-
 ton.
 Hartford, Conn, Nov. 4, 1907. 1 tAt a special meeting of the Hartford Clearing House association held to- day all the members being represent ed the following resolutions were passed unanimously:
 Whereas, checks, notes and other Items payable at banks of this asso- citation are by custom and practice payable through the clearing house and, whereas, there is now an unusual scarcity of currency, therefore be it
 Resolved, that the Hartford 21earing House association recommends to the various banks, members of the associ- atfon, that they certify and stamp checks presented to them for payment as follows: Accepted payable through the Hartford Clearing house.; also, that the banks request their dealers to stamp their checks in a similar manner, namely, "Payable through the Hartford Clearing house."
 1 Voted, That the manufacturing companies of Hartford be and they are hereby recommended to use in making their payrolls, checks drawn by them selves on their own banks. made pay able to bearer" and through the Hartford Clearing house." in denomi- nations of twenty, ten, five, two and one dollars respectively.

A CREDIT SCALE.

We are hearing a great deal too
| much about tailors. Not satisfied with
leading US into devious and extrava-
giant ways in the matter of colored
clothing, they have now issued a sort
of index expurgat orious of the various
risks that they take in the matter of
payment for their wares. Now it is a
matter of ancient and time-honored
usage that tailors' bills, like doctors
bills, are never due, and that their
settlement depends wholly upon grace
and not upon right. Those who pay
tailors' bills, out of the fullness of
their hearts and of their purses, are
expected to pay not only for their own
clothing but for that of the impecu-
NOUS ones who, after all, must wear
something, whatever may be the con-
dition of their exchequer. For a tailor
to complain of difficulty in collecting
his account, is bad form, but to clas-
sify his customers under the heading
of risks" like an insurance company,
is still worse
This is precisely what has been done
by an Eastern publication devoted to
the tailoring profession. First we have
minimum risks then ''inveterate
credit takers" and finally dad pay
ers." Under the first and most fav-
orable category we have shopkeepers,
weekly wage-earners, farmers, and
agricultural occupations. Inveterate
credit takers include those who will
eventually pay under some pressure,
and here we find clergymen in the lead.
followed by retired military and naval
men, the less prosperous professional
class. and attorneys. The third class
is said to be constitutionally averse to
the payment of tailors' or any other
bills. and here we find soldiers. sailors,
cattle dealers, itinerant tradesmen,
brokers, actors, and literary men.
