DOYLE'S ARREST.
The Bonds Found on Him All
Counterfeit.
CONFESSION OF THE MAN WHO
MADE THE PLATE.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23-Chief Brooks of the
Secret Service gives the following account of
the arrest of a counterfeiting band in Brook
Ign last night. Spencer, alias Bill Brockway,
was arrested in Brooklyn last night. He has
been notorious counterfeiter since 1866 An
engraver named Charles A. Smith of Brook
Ign was also arrested and a plate printer
named Jasper Owens of East New Xork. The
engraver said the bonds found on Doyle were
all counterfeit. He, at the request of Brock
way, engraved plate from which the bonds
were printed and delivered it to Brockway,
plate from which the counterfeit bills on the
Pittsburg National Bank of Commerce, which
have given so much trouble to business men in
the last two years, were printed.
The officers found nothing to prove the
mems guilt, but the confession of Smith i'm
plicat I'd all the persons named. The reason
they could not discover any of the counter
feiters' effects is due to Brockway's practice of
printing off the whole edition of his counter
felt notes on any given bank, getting them
reedy for market, and then burying the plates
before the issue of a note. Therefore, the
plates are not pet in the hands of the Secret
Service. The discovery that these bonds are
counterfeit is as great a surprise to the Secret
Service as to anybody, as previous to the ar
rest of Doyle in Chicago they had no intima-
ton that any such issue was contemplated
Smith claims that he engraved plates of the
counterfeit 7.30 bonds put upon the market in
1867. The workmanship of these bonds,
Chief Brooks says was so fine that about $685.
600 were taken by Jay Cooke & Co., before
their character was discovered.
The examination of the arrested parties is
set down for Tuesday next. pending which a
number of the bonds taken from the person of
Doyle in Chicago will be forwarded to Brook
lyn to be used as evidence. Smith. it appears,
delivered $1,000 six per cent. coupon bond
plate to Brockway six months ago. The
counterfeiters have therefore had abundant
time to put these counterfeit bonds on the
market, but it is not yet known by the Secret
Service whether they have improved the OPP
portunity or not. 1t is believed, however,
that but few, if any, have been put in circula-
ton other then those captured on Doyle

The Sheep and the Wolves.


Esop has fable of the wolves who pro-
posed to the sheep the removal of all causes of
distrust and hostile feeling, and the formation
of treaty of perpetu II amity and peace The
condition was that the sheep should dismiss
their guards, the dogs, and confde in the
friendship of the wolves. The silly sheep
were captivated by this idea of removing all
causes of unfriendliness, and so they dismissed
their guards. the dogs, whereupon the wolves
fell upon the sheep and devoured them OF
the same nature seems to be the proposition
that the country shall remove all causes of Sec
tional unfriendliness, and shall fetch in the era
of good feeling, by confiding the national gov
eminent to the solid South and the ex-Confed-
crate leaders; by trusting to their hands the
power to pay their own war claims; by con.
fiding to their control the public credit and
the revenue and monetary systems, to all
which they have declared their hostility: by
surrendering to them the power to take re-
venge and compensation out of the North for
their defeat in rebellion. Were the sheep who
dismissed their protectors in order to piacate
wolves any more silly than would be the peo-
pie who surrendered all political power to the
Confederate chiefs?

THAT FORGERY.
Explicit Denial of the Chinese
Letter by Garfield.
INTERNAL EVIDENCE OF ITS
SPURIOUSNESS.
Another Unsuccessful Attempt to
Find Morey.

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-The following has
been issued from the Republican headquarters:
We have received and have in our possession
the following telegram from Gen. Garfield IN
reference to tie forged letter recently pub
lshed by the Democratic committee on the
Chinese labor question:
MENTOR, Oct %, 1880.
To Hon. III. Je,ceU and Hon. S. W. Dorsey:
will not break the rule have adop ed by max
ing public reply to campaign lies, but authorize
you to denounce the so-called Morey letter as a
bold forgery, both in its language and sentiment.
Until its publication never heard of the existence
suchiperson as H. L. Morey. j. A. GARFIELD.
Ats o'clock p. n. the National Republican
committee issued the following to the public:
The following dispatch has this moment
been received from Gen. Garfield:
MENTOR, Ohio, Oct. %.
To Hon. Marshall JeiceU:
Your telegram of this afternoon is received. Pub
lish my dispatch of last evening if you think best
Within the last hour the mail has brought me a
photographic CODY of the forged letter. 1t is the work
of some clumsy villain who cannot spell or write
English not initiate my handwriting. Every homes
and manly Democrat in America who is familiar
with my handwriting will denounce the forgery at
sight. Put the case In the hands of the abest de-
tective at once and hunt the rascal down.
j. a. GARFIELD.
Boston, Oct. 23.-The Herald tomorrow will
state in effect that interviews with prominent
Lynn manufacturers of all shades of politics
substantiate the statement that no such or
ganization as the Employers Union ever ex-
listed in Lynn, and that FL L. Morey is wholly
unknown to them. Old employees in the shop
with which Morey is alleged TO have been con-
nected deny all knowledge of any such person.
During the strikes there was an organization
known as the Manufacturers Bureau, but the
manager of this, who employed men in the
place of strikers, was named Richardson, not
Morey.
WASHINGTON, Oct 23.-The Postmaster Of
this city has telegraphed to the chairman of the
National Republican committee at New York
that no such canceling stamp as appears on
TIE envelope that contained the alleged letter
on the Chinese question: from Gen. Garfield tc
II. l.. Morey was IN use in the Washington
post office on the 23d of January, the date the
letter is claimed to have been mailed. An en-
tire new set of canceling stamps was placed
in use in the Washington post office on the
18th of April. The stamp in question is q
good representation of the new stamp, but is
totally unlike the one IN use in that office or
the 23d of January. the old stamp being made
of rubber and the new one of steel and very
unlike in their arrangement.

New ORLEANS, Oct. 23.-Acting under the
order of Gov. Wells after legal advice State
Supervisor of Registration Cavanac decided to
keep the registration office open until Oct. 3d.
