The Sub Retrenchment Committee thus far
have been ascertaining the mode in which
business generally has been transacted at the
Treasury Department, and this involves the
examination of the books, the obtaining of in
formation by personal inquiries and facts con-
nected with the Printing Bureau. 1t is not

Some of the detectives of the Treasury De-
partnent profess to have information leading
to the conclusion that only 10000 of the coun-
terfeit 1905 were printed, and that these were
divided among three parties to be put in crcu.
ation. The Department has not within the
last two or three weeks received any more of
these notes. Eight OF the old counterfeit fifty
dollar notes were recently received at the
Treasury Department. but being examined by
an insufficient light, their spurious character
was not at once detected. The Treasury has
adopted measures additional to those hereto
fore enforced, to guard against such impose
tons, and has assigned several ladies' known
to be reliable experts, to assist the men in the
examination of the more important issues.
The State Department has not as yet re-
ceived any instructions as to who will be the
successor of Sir Frederick Bruce as British
