COURT DECIDES
BANK CAN HOLD
CHECKPAYMENT
Fact That Paper Is Genuine Does
Not Estop Cashier From
Using Discretion.

CHICAGO, Jan. 10.-The Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court by a
unanimous opinion handed down to-
day holds in effect that a bank may
delay payment on check even
though the check be genuine, and
on paying out money on checks that
keep coming in after the presenta-
ton of any certain genuine check on
which the bank prefers to delay pay
ment.
The opinion was written by JUS
tice Mclaughlin, and was rendered Il
the case OF Henry Hentz who sued
the National City Bank to recover
s25. 900.
Hentz alleged in his complaint that
the firm of Lathrop, Haskins & Co.
on January IS, 1910, made out check
to him for the amount sued upon.
Hentz further alleged that he in
dorsed the check and deposited it
with the Mechanics National Bank,
and that on January 10, 1910, the Me-
CTdIlCS NdllOIldl bdIih presented tiis
check for payment to the National
City Bank through the clearing
house, according to custom.
The check was presented to the
National City Bank at 1915 o'clock
in the morning, Hentz alleges. and
was held by the defendant bank until
2 O'Clock in the afternoon. In the
| meantime. at 1890 o'clock that same
, day, Lathrop, Haskins & Co. made an
assignment. Then the National City
Bank, at o'clock, sent the check
back to the clearing house On the
ground of the assignment being made
by Lathrop, Ha skins g. Co.
TIE case came up originally before
Justice Philbin. The bank held that
| 1t was acting within its rights in
r gliding up the check, and could do so
to see whether the check were good
or not Justice Philbin ruled that
Hentz had stated sufficient facts to
| have the suit tried. The bank APP
| pealed from this decision. The APP
| pellate Court to-day reverses Justice
| Philbin. The Appellate Division, how
ever. permits the plaintiff, Hentz, to
start anew by serving an amended
complaint on the bank.

Cotton Steady, but
Dull at Weekend
Confidence in Higher Prices Is Grow
ing-Spot Situation to Govern
Course of Market.

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-Although there
was a fair demand for cotton at the
opening of the market to-day. first
last nights close, as result of Liv-
erpool cables being points lower than
due, cables attributing this to hedge
selling Spot sales at Liverpool were
very small with spot quotations at IA
points advance.
There appeared to be many buying or
ders on the opening. coming mostly from
the South, Wall street and brokers who
usually represent some of the larger spot
houses. There was only moderate Sell
ing and prices advanced to points
from the opening ranke. On the ad-
vance, the market lacked snap, and
soon gave way to active selling, which
was supposed to be for profit taking,
causing prices TO ease off TO 10 points
from Fridays final.
Sentiment is more mixed than for
some time and the eyes of the cotton
trade are on the spot situation. which
the course of the market depends en-
tirely upon. On the other hand, some
of the most conservative cotton men
are inclined to the belief that prices
will work temporarily lower, and do not
think that an advance can be sustained
until there is a good broad bull spec
ulation in the market
The market was absolutely feature
less after the first hour. Apparently 1t
has gone back into the rut after the
activity of yesterday and the volume
of business was very light. The prin-
cipal trading wos of a swapping char
acter One of the most powerful spot
interests in the country was conspicuous
on the buying side, mostly of March,
but seller of May, which the strength
of March would Indicate.
The market steaded up around the
close on what appeared to be week
end covering by shorts. Final quota
tons were 1 up to 5 points lower
than the final quotations of Friday.

NEW YORK. Jan. 10.-A sharp break
Of three points occurred in New Haven

day, the issue declining to 1914. Within

The attack upon New Haven was at
tributed TO the hostile attitude assumed
by Governor Walsh in his address to
the Massachusetts Legislature and the
generally depleted condition of the sys-
tenn.
Trading was brisk at the opening, and
the list showed Irregularities. Many of
the active shares were lower. but after
half an hours trading they ranged
above Fridays final

imprisonment, as well as fine, has
been written into the Sherman law by
the subcommittee of the House Judi
ciary Committee, which has just COM
pleted a draft of the Administration s
antitrust bill The fundamental pro-
visions of the bill were learned to-
day.
The bill consists of a number of
separate measures. These will be in

they have been submitted to President
Wilson for his approval. The most
important of the measures provides
a penal punishment for corporation

the anti trust laws.

Manufacturers will be forbidden to

of the article manufactured. There
are drastic provisions prohibiting

necessity for this legislation being
shown by the decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States in the Dick

The bill requires that no restraint

There also will be definition of what

While Revenues in State Show an
Increase Of $4,297,l24 Since
1911, Operating Expense Is Up
$5,873,556 in Same 2 Years.
For Every 500 Taken in There
Is Expenditure Of S75.35 That
Trains May Be Kept Moving.
Remainder Must Give All Profit.

Railroads in Georgia got S51,559,-
5SS in 1918 for their services to the
public, as against SAT, 262,459 in 1911.
That's the most encouraging item
in the annual report of the Georgia
Railroad Commission, made public
to-day, the increase in gross revenue
nue..
Here's the other side of the pic
ture: 1t cost the railroads only $32,-
9S0,674 to get the $47,262,459 they
earned two years ago; it cost them
s3s.s54.230 to get the ISL $50, 5SS they
earned last year.
Expressed in accountants terms,
operating expense is growing much
more rapidly than revenue. More
simply. the railroads in this State
used to spend for expenses $69.7S out
Of every 500 they took in; now they
must spend $685. out of every 500
to keep trains moving.
Out of the slim remainder, S24.65
of every 500, must come all taxes,

Nes and Nes BY Experts of Finance Industry Crops a

Rule by Banking Interests
LAKE CHARLES, La,
Ion IN

LAKE CHARLES, LA,
Jan. 10.
The resignation of mem
bers of the Morgan firm
from the directorates of
rail and water transporta-
ton companies and finan-
cial allies indicates a de-
cision on the part of the
banking interests to con-
fine their efforts to bank
ing solely.
I predict in a short time
corporate endeavors will
be restricted not by law,
but by the corporate pol
icy of the directors to the
purpose for which they
were organized.
The resignation is, in my
judgment, an acceptance
of the industrial, COM
mercial and financial in
terests for independent &C
ton and for a severance
of corporate control or
domination of policy
where the business of such
institutions are and should
be competitive.

AN old RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR TURNS
GRAY, FADED HAIR DARK
AND GLOSSY.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre co the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for 'Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about 80 cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that you
darkened your hair, as it does it SO
naturally and evenly. You dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time; by morning
the gray hair disappears, and after
another application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glossy and you look years younger.
