How They Were Discovered.
Frank Ango, Rano Vincenzo, Antonio
Watchelan and Antonio Levengi, as the
police make out the names of the four
counterfeiters arrested Saturday evening,
as related in the SUNDAY MORNING NEWS
of yesterday, were arraigned before
United States Commissioner Muirheid
this morning. They still maintained that
they could not speak English and refused
to say anything. They We're committed
for examination.
The first iptimation which the police
received of the presence of the men in
this city was given at the Oakland Ave
nue. Station Saturday evening, when two
boys informed the sergeant that four
Italians were passing counterfeit money
in the stores on Central avenue. De-
tective McNallY was sent out to shad-
ow the men and followed them
for some distance. Just as he was about
to arrest them he lost them on Hoboken
avenue The boys, however followed the
Italians up and pointed them out to
Policeman Murray.
The police are wondering whether the
new counterfeits did not come from San
Francisco. One of the prisoners had a
San Francisco tailor's mark in his coat
and tore it out in his cell Saturday night.
1t was found in there yesterday morning.
Sixteen storekeepers have been found
who were victimized by the counter
feiters. The capture of these men reflect
credit upon the Jersey City police.

With the Manner contractor Ensltsn
Is Erecting his New Flats.
Dir. Waiter Rae awarded a contract to
Richard English some time ago to erect
two seven-story brick flats on Jersey ave-
nue., near Bright street. The work of
building was begun several weeks ago,
and one day last week DR.. Rae
made an examination of the
work done The mortar that
the contractor had usedin the found
alton did no5 suit the physician and he
called the attention of Mr.. English TO it,,
claiming that it was not adhesive
enough. English blamed Architect Giele
for it and in turn Mr.. Giele declared the
contractor was the responsible party.
DIR. Rae decided to suspend further
labor until he had caused thorough ana
Iysis OF the mortar to be made. This has
thrown a number of stonemasons out of
employment, and they have not been paid
for their labor. A number of laborers also
have not been paid and they demanded
the amount due them. Among the I'M
paid men are James Dugan, William
Kier, John Sheridan, John McDerplott
and Patrick Murphy. There is two weeks
pay due them, and should the difficulty
reach the courts it may be long time
before they will get their money.
