Ho could hare learned the truth by cabling, but instead he went to the man, a well known banker, who had received the news, and request ed him to reveal the name of the firm to liim. "That's n very delicate thing fo do," replied the banker, "for tbe news is not oihciai, and 11 I gars you the name I might Incur some responsibility." The merchant argued, . bnt in vain, and finally he made s propo sition. "1 will gite yon," he said, "a list of ten firms in Yokohama, and I will ask you to look through it and then to tell me without men tioning any name whether or not the name "of the firm which has fsiled appears in it Surely yoo will do that former "Yes," said the banker, "for if I do not mention any name I cannot bo held responsible in any way." The list was made. The banker looked through it and as ho hand ed it back to the merchant said, "The asms of the firm which has failed is there." Then I'te lost heavily," replied the merchant, "for that is the firm with which I did business," show ing him s name on the list. "But how do yon know that is the firm which has failed?" asked the banker in surprise. "Very easily," replied ths mer chant "Of the ten names on the list only one is genuine that of the firm with which I did business. All the others are fictitious." Spider RepHblies.
