All the bsnks are closed and the city mer chant is more liable to each c check at that time and take . chance than n any other time. This gives the crook two dsys before his vlllisuy is discovered and in two dave he can get to Los Angeles and take . steamer or easily slip across the border.
 Friday morning the Consolidated National bank received . check from the Hotel Stewart on West Broad way, which had been cached by one, Thomas c Hall. Saturday afternoon. The check was drawn on the First Natiousl Bank of Tombstone and was good for $al. That is. it was good for $4l to Hall but the Tucson bank officials be- came suspicious when they saw shat it vas signed. "Bcquillss Land and Cattle Company" and not ths pane of an official of that concern The usual procedure in csses oi this kind being for sn official to sign the name of the company and then bis own sig nature.
