BAD STORM

IN TWIN CITY

East Chicago and Indiana Harbor

were visited this morning by one of

the fiercest electrical storm of the season. Unlikeprevious storm however, this one was accompanied by little If any wind, but the lightning and thunder were terrlfla

An Indiana Harbor sar on the South

Shore line was struck by lightning dur

ing the storm. The car was numbered 61 and the bolt struck it while It was standing at Columet in front of the South Shore station ehere. The bold connected with the oil pans which are

used to lubricate the gear, and a sheet of flame shot up the side of the car. The passengers scrambled out pell mell

into the driving rain the car being emptied in short order. No one Was hurt, but all were badly frightened.

The conductor and motormen went

blaze with but little damage to the car. It was disabled temporarily, however, and hal tu be towed to ta car

A banker calls the attention of The

Times to the following bit of informa tion relative to changes in the law af feeling negotiable paper:

At its last session, the Indiana leg

islature enacted what Is known as the

Negotiable Instruments law which is

a codification of the law relating to

checks, drafts, and notes. This act

makes some important changes In the

law as It previously existed In Indi

ana. Tour especial attention Is called to one such change affected by article

VI., section 17, which follows:

"When the Instrument (promissory

note or acceptance) is made payable at a bank, it ia equivalent to an order

to the bank to pay the same for the

account of the principal debtor there

on.'

The attorney general gives it as his

opinion, as have other lawyers who

have been consulted, that under the law, when a note or acceptance Is made payable at a bank and the bank has sufficient funds of the maker or acceptor on deposit. It must pay the

obligation on demand at maturity unless It has specific instructions from

the maker or acceptor to withhold pay

ment. Thus, In its legal effect, a note

or acceptance payable at bank be

comes at maturity practically, a check on the bank where It Is payable, and In the absence of positive Instructions

to the contrary (as in the case of a check where payment has been stop

ped) the bank must pay it on proper

demand if the maker or acceptor has

funda on deosit sufficient for that pur pose. . This law heeatne effective on Its pro

mulgatlon April 30, 1918. and therefore

controls all notes or acceptances ex

ecuted on that or a subsequent date.
