CHICAGO, June 23.-Illinois, the State
whose forty-eight votes at critical stage
turned the tide in favor of the nomination
of Grover Cleveland, and New York
State, in the face of whose protest the
great popular leader was named for the
Presidency, clasped hands through the
Intervention of Hon. William NJ. Springer
of Illinois to-day, and the bond of friend
ship between the Empire and Prairie
States was cemented by the nomination of
Adlai e. Stevenson for Vice President.
Every delegate yesterday identified with
the opposition to Cleveland was found to
be arrayed in even more vehement oppo-
sition to the candidacy of Isaac P. Gray
OF Indiana. When Springer declared
that Stevenson should be presented as
a VicePresidential candidate, he found
New York kindly disposed to give him
cooperation. What took place at the
conference with the New York delega-
ton no one knows, but when the distin-
guished tariff relorner emerged he an
nounced to his fellow-Democrats of Hi
nois that the seventy-two votes of New
York would be cast for Stevenson, and a
victory was assured. To the convention
at large the intention of the New York
delegation was secret until the State was
reached on the roll-call.

Prospect That it VIII Now be Broken
Up.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 23.-The capture
of the counterfeiters Abbatti and Wis
counte, and quickly following the arrests
| of d. NJ. Howell of Stockton and Charles
NJ. Murray of this city, assures the break
ing up of the greatest gang Of coiners that
has ever operated in the Pacific States.
The Government agents are we'll salts
fed with the results of their lapors in
having secured the principal coiners,
| and are now prepared to gather in the
smaller fry, among whom are the mid
dlemen ana pasSers of the bogus cur
rency.
Howell arrived in the city to-day from
Stockton i'll custody OF Sheriff Cunning
ham, who arrested him. His bail was
| fixed at goo and in default of it he was
locked up in the County Jail.
Charles M. Murray, arrested on We'd
nesday night by Secret Service Agent
Harris, was also held to answer on a sim
| liar charge in $4,000.
! Murray and Howell are important
members OF the gang, being the middle
| men who ordered the counterfeit coin
| from the makers, and then disposed of it
to showers" who in turn put it in circu-
lation by passing it off III stores or where
| ever the opportunity offered.
Murray was at one time Deputy Con-
stable OF StanislaUs County. lie was also
Clerk of the Russ House in Modesto. and
owner of livery stable at Oakdale.
Howell undoubtedly worked with Muir
ray in dealing in counterfeit money. Sew
eral weeks ago a package of Abbatti's coin
was seized by Agent Harris in Wells,
Fargo Il Co.'s express. 1t was marked
and forwarded to its destination at Stock
ton, after Sheriff Cunningham was noti-
fed TO keep a watch for the person who
would receive it. Howell was seen to get
the package and receipt for it. In SAFE
at his office were found 200 counterfeit
quarter dollars, $50 halves and 40 standard
dollars.
James Smith, arrested at Petaluma
during the hrst week of April last, and
held to answer for passing counterfeit
money, is another of the gang. He has
since been confined in the County Jail
but was removed to Alameda to-day to
prevent him from communicating in
Italian with Abbatti and Viscounte, who
were placed in adjoining cells. Abbatti
was removed to the County Jail at San
Jose to-day.
1t is generally believed that Smith gave
the Government agents valuable inform
alton to enable them to run down the
gang. There are a number of other ar
rests to follow, among them being three
men of great Importance among the
cOunterteiterS.

but it is hardly conceivable in view of
the importance of our success to the coun-

anywhere among Democrats any lack of
