q SPURIOUS COIN.
The Plant of Bogus Money Concern
Discovered In Salem County Swamp.


From the PAtSadelphia Record.
Detective Bell, of the United States Sc
cret Service, has been engaged for five
weeks in endeavoring to locate counter
feter in West Jersey, who has been turn
ing out spurious half-dollar pieces, which
have been extensively passed upon guile
less persons IN Salem and Gloucester
counties. He finally discovered that John
Hughes, an old offender, was living on a
farm, one and a half miles from Elmer,
where he was regarded as an honest and
industrious tiller OF the soil. 1t did not
require much time for the secret service
man to find that Hughes was again plying
one Of his old branches in the counterfeit
ing line. He followed him on Saturday TO
the Pittman Grove camp meeting, and, af-
ter seeing him dupassome of the restauT-
ant and stand keepers with his illegal
coin, effected his arrest later in the after
noon.
The detective, securing a team, con-
veyed the prisoner to his home, near Elm
er. There he found that Hughes was a
part tenant OF house on a farm OF SO
acres, which was rented by Samuel Dare
The detective, suspectiBg Dare TO be q
partner Of Hughes, also took him into
custody. A short distance from the farm
house, in piece Of swamp, the detective
discovered a lot OF melting pots. dies,
molds and other things by which the
spurious coin was Manufactured. The
two prisoners were takenito Camden yes
terday afternoon ana lodged in the City
Hall. They will be given an examination
to-day before United States Commissioner
Cassidy. Dare appears, to be simple
minded ruralist who would never be sus-
pected Ofthe crime Of unlawfully expand
ing the currency. Hughes, on the other
hand, is an old iail-bIrd, ahxving t1done

400 @ 400 miles, taking account of the
DsnOs. A large map, in 10 sheets, of the
explored part Of the river has lust been
receHef by the Royal biographical So
ciety. This map will appear in an early
number OF the societv's proceedings, and
aleng narrative OF mir. Grenfefs recent
wbf'kwill probably be published in the
next number OF the Baptist Missionary
t0t941tdt. Its hoped, moreover, that a
full narrative OF Mr. GrenfelPs explora-
lions VIII reBcn ENGLAND in time to be
reae ut fhe 4 he' deem meeting of the
British Association. The Mobanpi. Mr..
Grenleli writes, is far more populous than
any equal length Of the Congo,
and to his mind the country
IS more promising. True, the people
are wild, but then his visit was that Of
the first white man they had seen. In as
cend3ng theriver and his wife and 10
months-old baby We're on board) Mr..
Grenfel met with not few difficulties
nom the hostility of the natives, and had
II not been FOL his energetic action on one
OCCASION ne and his party would probably
have come to grief. His wav down the
river was, however, most of encouraging;
plenty OF food and not sign hostility.
lie h0pes to make the trip again. and has
no doubt that he will be able to report
peaceable and friendly receptions every
where. He may also be able to pene-
trate further toward the valley of
the Shari, the great tributary of
Lake Chad. Unfortunately, Mr.. 3renfell
states. tae confluence of the Mobangi with
the Congo is just within French territory.
though II is not so represented either on
the map in Mr.. Staney's last book or on
the latest map Of the Royal Geographical
Society. At ali events, Immediately after
Mr.. GrentalPs return from Stanley Pool.
NJ dc Brazza left Brazzaville, very prob.
ably to examine for himself the great
waterway discovered by the English mis-
slonary, and possibly to follow it further.
II so, we are sure to hear of his 'sgreat
journey of discovery with the usual
flourish of trumpets. The commercial
importance OF Mr.. GrenfelPs discovery
cannot be exaggerated. Whether the
MObangl is the Welle or not, it must form
an important connecting link be-
tween the basin of the Congo and the ba-
sins of tue Niger, the Shari and the Nile.
Mr.. Stanley has always maintained that
the region lying between the Congo and
the Nile is probably the richest and most
promising in Africa, and his belief seems
likely to be amply confirmed. Besides
the MObangi, MIR. Grenfell has explored
500 miles of river courses debOuching into
the Congo, and, as he is a trained and
careful surveyor, ne will be able to plot
them with precision. The most northery
