COUNTERFEIT SILVER DOLLARS.
Put Out a Profit Of Forty to Forty-Five
Per Cent.
By telegraph to the Dispatch)

By telegraph TO the Dispatch)
WHEELING, w. VA. october 2.-1t
has been discovered that West Virginia
towns have been flooded with thousands
OF counterfeit silver dollars. The bogus
money has the true ring but II is little
Overweight and perceptibly larger. The
people appear perfectly willing to take
them, although they know they are not
minted by the Government. The question
with the people who have taken the stun
is upon what ground the Treasury depart
ment can condemn the money.
The enterprise was probably started In
response TO oft repeated newspaper sug-
gestions that silver dollars OF the same
weight and frmness AZ those made by the
Government. could be made at profit OF
40 TO A. cents on the dollar
