ID, for having a large amount of " wild cat
money " in his possession, was examined on
Friday, and committed in default of bail in

York told him that the " Potomac river Bank -
whence the bills $4,000 WORTH purported to
be issued, was new bank recently started at
Georgetown, ID. c and that be was out raising
money and that the bank was not yet started,
only bonds paid in. Said he had put $500
into the concern, and he wanted to get it back
de said that this would ruin it, lie said the
bank was reported in the detector, and tn at
the man who issued the detector would blow
IL up. without he received more money He
ssI be was going to Concord to raise money
on these bills. From the evidence introd uced
it appears that York made no secret of having
item with him. The prisoners counsel con.
tended that if there was No such bank as the
Potomac River Bank, as the prosecution con-
tended, then there was no counterfeit. York
