Great Haul Of Rascals-S40 900 Counterfeit
Is, Money Discovered. g..

We compile the following account of
the breaking up den Of scoundrels near
Cincinnati from the Gazette:
tInformation having been given the po-
lice, Of Cincinnati of the existence of a
counterfeiter's den, few miles down the
river, eighteen officers, on Tuesday, went
to make arrests. The approach of the
police being known, six of the occupants
of the suspected house made their escape,
but the police, as previously planned, in
vested the place, and arrested five of the
fugitives, named Samuel d. TOwner and
Milton Parker, of Cincinnati; Lewis DOL
man, of. Indiana, an escaped convict; Jo-
seph Bean, of Indiana; VIM. McGeary, of
cleveland, and Quincy Hurschey, a
large contractor on the Ohio and Missis-
sippi Railroad. Parker is a notorious
counterfeiter, and was pardoned out Of
our penitentiary by Gov. Wood, six weeks
since; he very nearly made good his es-
cape under the fire of the officers, but for
tunately stumbled and was captured; a
large amount of bills on the Ohio State
Stock, Miami Valley and Bank of Day
ton, unsigned, was taken from him.
After the arrests had been made, the
premises were carefully searched. In the
dwelling was found box containing five
gold watches, and from twenty to thirty
gold rings. In the chicken-coop. some
thing like forty thousand dollars in coun-
terfeit notes of the Ohio State Stock,
Miami Valley, Bank of Dayton and the
Fairfield County Bank were discovered,
nearly all signed, cut and done up in
thousand dollar packages, ready for dis
tribution., The money was concealed in
a bag, half filled with charcoal.
A mailbag paddock of tie post-office
department was also discovered in the
dwelling. The stables attached to the
premises was found to have been convert
ed into workshop for these counterfeit
ers, and dies, tools, galvanic battery,
stamps. moulds, metal, end pieces, Wig
nettes, figures, letters, engraving tools,
and all the other apparatus needed for the
business of counterfeiting, were also dis
covered and taken possession of by the
police. A composition for the manufac.
ture of base money, together with a
quantity of crucibles, was also discovered
and seized by the officers. The prisoners
are in prison in Cincinnati.
