The Liability of n Bank for Paylug Checks Signed by a Clerk After Expiry of Authori- ty to Do so—-A Case of Interest to the Comi- mercinl World—Sapreme Coart Declalon. Messrs, Lyman and Jackson send us the following optnion of the Bupreme Court, by Judgs Lawrence, in. the appeal of the Manufacturers' Bank of Chicago v. A. S. Barnes ot al 1 ‘This action wos brought by Barncs & Cn,to recover from the bank a balanco clalmed to b dueon deposits Tmade by tho platntiffs with tho bank. The deposits Were sdmitted, but the defense set up was payment to the piatntifl’s clerk undor the following ciccumstances. Tt appears that o the 22d of June, 1830, Barncs, the resident partner at Chicago, and the only person ai- thorized 10 draw checks, belng obliged io leavo tha city for a short time, gave to 3 cleck employed by him a8 bookkeeper and cashicr 3 powor of atiarney authorizing him to draw checks on the bank for fifteen Qaye, This power of stiorney wan lodged with tho bank, a conversation having been previously had with the assistant cashier In regard to it. Oun thefthof July, Barnes returned, and renumed tho charge of his Lusihess, Nevertheleds, the clerk continued to draw occasional chocke, nigning the nama of Barnes with fls initial letter of bis own name, to indicate his agency. Ho continued to chieck until the foilowiog Jabuary, the whole amount drawn being $4,547.94. Of this surs, the clerk had used $1,507.30 in paying debis of the firm, Lut without the knowledge of Barpes, Diring the interval, the bank-book bad becn seversl Uiges written up, and the paid checks returned; but 13 this bad been attended to by the sama clcrk, acting in his capacity of book-zecper and casbler, the = fact fthat he had been drawin chocks after the power of altorney ki expired wan pot discoversd by the plaintiffs untis Jac- Gary, Judgment was obtained in th~ Superior Court for the amount of chocks drawn by the clerk leas tte sum applied by bim to tha debts of the firm, for which tho plaintiffs gave the bank credit, Thecso was tried by the Court without s jury, and it is inaisted the Churt erzed in rendering judgment for auy greater $he first time, when all the checks were returned o the plaintifr, Itia claimed that from that dats ot lesat tha Dok had the right to presume that the clerk had ane thority to draw checks, Tlere ia atthe frat blush & cortaln plausibility 1 this view, but it will mog Dear examinstion. The same question aross inths caso of Welser v. Denison, 10 N. Y., 63. There, fare. 8 clork had drawn ciccks in the name of B Efoyer, and the pass-book kad been scveral times S ten tp and the checks returned before discovery of the fraud. Tho Court held that the balncing of Oho paca-book and the return of the checks ars for (s rotection of tlie depositor, and not for tlat of g Prox, snd the failare of the depositor to exzmiae the Chodks {a mot £ sch negiigeace on kis part aa to_eznnes- St iho bank from Liabikity for the continued payment & checks improperly drawn. We do not 2gree with Sounsel for appellsat in regarding the present case =9 stronger for the bank than that in the case beforo ua. Tho checks drawn by the Clerk showed npon their face that they were drswn by him, and the bank knew, by a document in 5 own possession, and Which had been mide the subfect af & epectsl Conversation with one of ita officers, that the clerk had anthority to draw checka only for Df:cen dass from tha 220 of June. Tho facts that the plaintiff had boen thus carefal to givs the clork expreas “rittn suthority, and %o limit 1t 1o Aiftecn days, ard 10 lodgs this authority vith tha bank in pursuanceof 3 presious arrangeineat, were suficient to ahow the bank that the plalntil Lsd no Inteation of giving to the clerk a general suthority todraw. The bank waa guilty of great negligenco in paying checka of the clerk drawn aftor that period, snd ‘cannot be excused merely because_the plaintitf failed foexamine the returned check, which hie had a right $o presume had been drawn by himself alone. Wa conaider tho reasoning of the New Yark Court of Ap- 1in the case cited, very satisfuctory, and adopt it iziom 5 the better rule.” Judgmeat alBrmed.
