strain on the nerves. as each note has to be
scrutinized very closely to see that it is
not counterfeit, and the counter i'm must
know the name of every bank that has a
counterfeit upon it, and have in his mind
a full description of the false note so as to
be able to detect it at sight. The superin-
tendent says counterfeit notes are thrown
out by these experts without hesitation
every time they come to them.
They have line of notes passing be-
fore their eyes all the time. and any flaw
or defect they notice on the instant. Two
hundred and forty appointments have been
made during the eleven years of the
agency's existence. and forty of the fifty
seven employees now there have served
from the first. A new hand is doing re-
markably well if he or she learns IN six
months to count 500 per day on the as
sortment, which is the easiest, while these
old hands will count 10000 day il these
notes are fairly good. Women are en-
ployed for their business because of the
delicacy of their touch and on account of
the fact that they are not so apt to have
bad habits, or when they do, it is more
quickly discovered than in the case of a
man. They must be young. quick and
healthy and well educated, and their sala-
ries, which are paid in through the Treas
ury by the banks, for the three grades of
work are rated at 5000. 81 900 and 81. POO.
The cashiers and two or three of the Gus
toners are men.
To witness the silence and system in the
office is remarkable sight; the eye of
the counter cannot tor an instant be taken
from the notes, and their fingers fly through
the money like machinery, one greenoack
following another in never-endng pro-
cession all day long. IL is said that three
counters Cor counteresses) see every line
of engraving on the face of a note at a
glance as it passes through their fingers.

The funeral of Merchant Policeman John
Spellmsn took place from st. Joseph
Church yesterday afternoon at , o'clock,

friends and acquaintance. The Metropo-
Titan and Merchant Police forces marched
in body from the Central Station, headed
By Geisendorff7s band, to the late residence
of the deceased, aud accompanied the body
to the funeral. Father Allerding preached
the funeral sermon, and made 1t an occs
sion for an earnest talk on the duties OF q
policeman, referring to the deceased as q
man of high principle and strictest integ.
rity. At the conclusion of the sermon the
BODY, accompanied By Albert Tickle, Henry
Slate, Charles Dawson, Frank Wilson,
Thomas Moore and John Webb as pail
bearers, and by the police forces as far as
McCarty street, was removed to the Catholic
Cemetery for burial. Relatives of the de-

The Priest OF St Patrick's Church
Resiens-The Parish Resolutions.
TIE people OF St. PStrick's Parish that as.
sembled at 10 O'Clock mass yesterday morn
ing were very much surprised when Father
0'Neil stated that he had been requested By
Bishop Cbatard to resign his position as
priest OF the parish, and that the present
occasion was the last upon which he ex-
pected to oficiate in that capacity. The
people present were sensibly affected by the
announcement and many of them were
seen in tears. Father O'Neiil briefly
referred to his work during the past
two and a half years of his residence
IN this city, and spoke of his con-
recton with the presentation Of 8 cane last
fall 10 Mr. James G.. Blaine, IN which affair
he acted as the messenger of a parish fair to
deliver the cane voted to the Presidential
candidate on that occasion. 1t was evident
that Father O'Neill thought his action AZ
that time and the multitude of enemies
which il raised about him. had much 70 do
with his resignation being demanded by the
Bishop, and he is said TO have referred to
the matter with considerable feeling.
Immediately after mass the Pensioners
assembled by request Of the trustees, and
toe following resolutions were unanimously
adopted
Whereas, 1t is with deep feelings OF sincere re-
greet that we the members OF st P8tricks Parish,
receive the intelligence of the removal of our be

move the present incumbrance on the church
property. He also recognized the fact that with
out good schools no parish was complete, and in
the recognition OF this fact he spared no pains
in remOdeing our present school for the girls

and the sisters. And be ii also

all mistakes. And be II further
Resolved, That while we deeply regret the irrepar-

Rev. Hugh 0Neill, we hope that the memory aud
deeds of so kind and loving pastor shall always
