Counterfeit Silver Coins That Are Worth
More than the Genuine.

WHEELING, w. Va, Oct. 25.-It has
been discovered that West Virginia towns
have been flooded with thousands of com-
terfeit silver dollars. The bogus money
has the true ring, but is a little overweight
and perceptibly larger in diameter The
milling is not perfect, but so nearly so that
1t would take an expert to detect the diff
ference The people appear perfectly will
ing to take them. although aware that
they were not minted by the government
There Is no clew to the manufacturers of
the spurious coin if a coin composed of
more than the legal amount of silver can
be called spurious, but the money appears
to have gotten through legitimate trade
channels. The question with the people
who have taken the stuff is upon what
ground can the Treasury Department con-
dsmn the money? The enterprise was prob
ably started in response to oft-repeated
newspaper suggestions that silver dollars
of the same weight and fneness as those
made by the government could be made at
a profit of 40 to 45 cents on the dollar.

Rts Inquest.
LOUISVILLE, KY, December 16.-The
close OF the drst DAYS work at the site
OF Yesterdays bridge disaster has not
been productive Of any results, so far as
the dead buried beneath the debris is
concerned. A pile driver and a large
force OF men have been al work all day,
but no bodies were taken out.
A channel has been cut through
the place. 10 is belieyed that the bodies
that may be under the mass Of iron and
timbers are crushed into the mud as the
very bottom Of the huge pile. The
probability is that all Of those reported
missing are among the killed. A Strong
west wind, with increasing coldness,
IN the river all day, rendering
work on the debris difficult and uncOm-
Portable. Human efforts seemed TO be
bahied by the difficulty Of the task OF
recovering the dead from beneath the
wreck IN the river. Coroner McCul-
Tough held a conference with the bridge
officials to-day, and IL was decided 10
have the unclaimed dead embalmed so
that the bOdies could be held TO await
directions from relatives. The expense
OF this was borne By the Phoenix Bridge
Company. The coroner has. decided
not 10 hold 80 inquest for several days,
By which time probably other bodies
VIII be recovered.

MR. s~ovEREIGN's VIEWS
Many OF Them Diner Materially From
Those OF mr. POwderly.

Those OF Mr. Powderly.
WASHINGTON, d. c., December 10
Master Workman Sovereign, Of the
Knights OF Labor, in a talk with the
Associated Press, outlined his policy,
some OF his views being in marked con-
trast with those Of his predecessor.
81 am against strikes, said be. Il
have been connected with labor or
CARNATIONS for years, and have never
vet been in a strike. They are the very
last extremity to be resorted to, and
even then should be unaccompanied by
force, and should be a dignited and
peaceful protest on the part OF labor
against the terms given them.
"The ballot is much more effective In
redressing wrongs than strikes or arbi-
trstiOn."
Mr.. Sovereign was asked as to his po-
sition on the tariff. 1t will DO remem-
bered that his predecessor was a pro-
~tectionist. II am an out and out free
trader. F." said he. II believe in no make
shifts or partial reductions OF tariff AK
alton. The sO-called protection to
American labor is a deluSiOn. Labor Is
not protected. Invested capital receives
a bonus in the form OF protection, and
it is then optional with the capitalist to
give a share Of the bonus to labor 10
the form Of Increased wages, But this
option Is seldom il ever exercised"
Mr.. Sovereign adds that the tariff and
and all other questions would be made
secondary 10 the money issue, which
was q subject on which the Knights Of
Labor and all industrial orders would
join. He says the Knights are about
20 enter upon a new era Of prosperity.
About 1000 street workers and as
many more clothing operatives will soon
be taken into the order at New York.

of North Carolina, Arkansas and the
Indian Territory to organize new

On last Monday night the Gen. U. s..
Grant Camp No. II, Sons OF Veterans,
held their regular meeting, also sheir
annual election, in which the following
officers were elected: Captain, f. Nj.

Second Lieutenant, w. Fl. Taylor;

Raguley, John r. Morris; Delegate,

Taylor. The comrades Of the
G.. A. R. were very conspicu-
Gus by their non-appearance. Now
it is to be hoped that they will not for
get that the Sons are still in existence.
It is a shame that they don't attend the
meetings OF this order and give it en-
-couragement. They well know that
the Sons are organized to take their
places when tley are gone, and they
should help this order as much as pos
sible. Tomorrow night the Ladies'
Aid Society, auxiliary TO the 5. OF
V, will hold their regular meet
ing, the annual election Of officers will
be held at this meeting, and all the
members are earnestly requested to be
present. This society, for the past year,
has been rapidly going down. This
should not be, it is the only society OF
its kind in the State and should be kept
up, so all members, Sons OF Veterans
and comrades of the q. A. +. should be
there o-morrow night without fail.
