TORONTO, ONT, June ia few DAYS ago a
man giving the name OF Robert Anderson was
arrested at the village of Unionville on a charge
Of passing counterfeit bills. He was committed
brought to Toronto gaol. On Saturday the lat
ter wrote note to the ontario government de-
tectlye, Murray, asking him to call.at the gaoI.
AS soon as Murray saw the man he said: .Your
name Is not Anderson. You are Harrison. the
noted counterfelter OF the United States and
five years" The prisoner at first denied
the statement, but afterward acknowledged
the truth of II, and Detective Murray then f0ld
him what plates he had in his possession. and
urged him to make known their WHEREABOUTS

Ing to make up his mind On the detective
again visiting him he told him that he WOuid
lead him to where the plates were hidden. In
company with detective Hodgins the two drove
TO bush, about five miles northwest from this
city, and there found, In a box buried in the
ground at the foot of a tree, seven
plates, viz: ten dollar plate on the
ontario Bank; five dollar plate on the Cam
adlan Bank OF Commerce; four dollar on the
dominion Bank; one and two dollar plates on
Tue Dominion OF Canada notes. and two five
dollar plates on the United States legal tender.
There Is standing reward of S. 200 by the
United states government for the capture of
the last two mentioned plates. The whole OF
them are valued at $4,000. Harrison has been
an engraver, and his work was SO wen executed
that American notes passed through the Treas

same can be said OF banks on which Canadian
counterfeits are printed. This is considered the
biggest counterfeiung arrest that has been
made on the continent for a number OF wears
Canada has been regularly visited by American
