ST. PAuI. Mimi, Feb. 2.-The Pioneer
Press announced that Il. b. NortRrop,
of this city, has just received cable
gram from London, which indicates
that all the gem-bearing beds OF Mon
tam have been transferred to English
rapitaiists. Tho property in question
comprises several pieces OF land, in
all nearly 5000 acres, the most inter
esting and important portions of
which are Ell Dorado Bar, the Ruley
Placer. They both lie along the Mis-
souri, river, north of Helena, tho for
NOR being In Meagher county, and the
latter In Lewis and Clarke counties.
FL Dorado was formerly celebrated
gold field. but on account of the scare
fly of water WINS abandoned in the
sixties. Its recent owner, Mr.. +. ID.
Spratt, left Alpena, Michigan, few
years ago to engage in mining In Mon
fana, and settled at York, Il little camp
in the Big Belt Mountains, and since
then has gained possession of many
mining properties in the surrounding
country by purchase, patents or claims
under general laws. His partner in
thsse enterprises has been his brother,
a. N. Spratt, of Alpena, Michigan, who
is the president OF the Minot Lumber
Company.
Tho Messrs. Spratt, by succession
OF purchases obtained possession Of
I'll Dorado Bar, having in view the gold
which, with modern facilities, can be
washed out in paying quantities, and
( with the Interior hope that the stones
found there might prove to be very
valuable.
Subsequent investigation showed the
stones 10 be sapphires of purest quality.

NoRRIsrowN, Feb. 2.-Quite number
of counterfeit five dollar notes have
made their appearance in Norristown
within the past few weeks. At one OF
the banking houses to-day, it was said
that a great many of the bogus notes
had been presented recently, and that
the town seemed to be flooded with
them. The only organized system for
disposing of the spurious paper thus
far discovered is confined to Italians,
one or two of whom have been
operating on Lafayette street. where
two women, proprietors Of small
stores, have been yictimized.
Within week after the money was
accepted by the women, they were
called upon by o man purporting to be
a United States Secret Service Detec-
tive, who took up one OF the bills and
asked for the other, which, in the
meantime, had been burned. The
cashier OF one of the banks is inclined
to the belief that the alleged secret
service agents were men in COLLISION
with the persons who had worked of
the counterfeit money.

When 1t became known recently

Woleott, and the mission OF General
Alger to the Capitol Is TO endeavor tc

that large element of the club In
tended to snub him, he said he woulC

Shelter, OF POS Master street, Philadel-
phia, arrested last week for robbing a
freight car on the North Penn Railroad
at Lansdale, was given final hearing
this afternoon by Magistrate Urner,

that Shelter was the person who had
broken the seal on the car. Shelter
tapped a cask containing gin, and also
appropriated caddy OF plug tobacco,
which he hid under the railroad plat,
form. Subsequently he used IA portion
OF the tobacco for paying an election
