Rights of Bona Eide Purchaser of ;
Check

Atlanta. Ga, Feb. IS, 191S.-To
the Peoples Counsel: A carpenter
rented a house from me- He did
some roof Singing for a party. He
brought to me the check. payable to
order, given by said party, for the
work. The check said nothing
about for what it was given. l re-
ceived the check Saturday after
banking hours, in payment for the
rent. When l presented the check
to the bank upon which it was
drawn. on Monday morning follow
ing, the bank refused to pay. be-
cause the party who gave the check
had given notice, not to pay, be-
cause the work of shingling was not
satisfactory I, being an innocent
bona fide purchaser of said check,
contended. with no avail. that the
bank should pay me. ] had later
to get the party to give consent for
payment. Which was right?
w. M. M.
A check may be revoked or counter
manded by the drawer until it is paid
certified or transferred to bona flde
holder; but it can not be countermand
ed after 1t has been accepted, or after ii
has come. by due transfer in the course
of business, into the hands of bona
fde holder for value. The drawer is
liable to the bona fide holder for value
if he stops payment by the bank.
Your remedy is either as outlined
above or you can return the check and
sue the party for the rent.

Objects to Sails on Bdrgcs,

Senator John Walter Smith is leading
fight in the Senate Commerce Com
mittee against that provision Of the
Seamen's bill which prohibits small sea-
going barges from navigating outside
inland waters without sails.
Shipping interest of the Chesapeake
Bay and elsewhere along the coast are
supporting Senator Smith. The measure
in question provides that no tug shall
tow more than one barge at a time from
an inland waterway out to sea unless
the barges have been equipped with
masts and sails.
This, it has been showned to the COM
mittee by the Maryland Senator, would
work a serious hardship upon barge
owners. Many of the smaller craft
which load in the rivers emptying into
the bay would if this bill passed. have
to reload before passing out to sea, as
the smaller barges would not be able
to pass under bridges if equipped with
masts.
The provision in the bill to which
strenuous objection has been raised is
designed to safeguard the lives of sea-
men on barges.
