TO THWART coUNTERFEITERS
Bank Note Concerns Use Every Pre-
caution.

The business Of printing bank notes,
securities, postage stamps n rail
road tickets is one of the peculiar
industries which are rooted in New
York. 1t is one of the things the
public hears little about, because the
details are zealously guarded. From
the very nature of the business
secrecy is Of prime importance, both
to thwart the schemes of counterfeit
ers and to protect the interests Of
customers. Few there are who can
obtain permission to visit these estab-
lishments.
IF President Cleveland, " said the
manager of one Of these concerns,
wanted to look through our estab-
lishment we could not allow him to-
There are half Il dozen bank note
companies in New York, employing
in all about 1000 men and represent
ing IA capital of several million dol
lars. Formerly the printing of bank
notes was their greatest source of in
come, but a few years ago this was
transferred to the Bureau Of Engrav-
ing and Printing at Washington. At
present a few companies do this work
for foreign countries. But they all
print stocks, bonds, certificates of
shares and tickets. Their employees
are all skilled artisans and receive
very high wages.
One of the concerns prints all OF
the postage stamps for the United
States and does the same kind of
work for other countries, too. They
turn out every year for the use of
American citizens about 300, 900, 600
stamps and send them to the various
post offices, as ordered by the Post
master-General. The Secretary Of
the Treasury recently recommended
that this work be transferred to the
same department which makes the
bank notes, at a saving of 1928, 600 a
year.
The safeguards against counterfeit
ing are the intricacy OF the engraving
and the texture of the paper. The
companies endeavor to create partic-
ular designs that will be hard to inn
itate. They print from steel plates
almost exclusively.
The paper used for securities, etc,
is of linen and cotton rags, and very
tough. In its preparation great care
il necessary and only IA few firms
manufacture it with success. The
paper has strands Of silk thread in
terwoven with the fibre.
Bank note companies are possessed
of much important information that
they cannot disclose, and this is one
,of the main reasons why visitors are
not welcome to their workrooms.
Corporations often give an order for
stocks or bonds in anticipation of a
reorganization or increase of capital.
Foreknowledge Of this might defeat
the plans for the issue of the paper.
There is little danger Of information
leaking through employees. The
workingmen are devoted to the inter
ests Of the company they work for.
Boys and girls are taken into the
various departments when in their
teens and work themselves up 10 po-

The advent Of yoluminouS cravats
is another matter which seems to be
Of very secondary Importance, and
yet it may be IA telling object in the
general aspect of a toilet. For so
long IA time a straight band about the
throat has been the only acceptable
style that the new cravats take us
by surprise, AL the more so that they
are excessively wide and when tied
in "a big bow will cover the greater
part Of the bust, the loops reaching
to the curve Of the shoulders and the
ends falling nearly to the waist.
Some Of these %cravats, which we owe
to the favor i'm which vests and Louis
XVI. Jackets are held, are made Of IA
breadth Of mousseline de sole, bord-
cred with three or four bands Of satin
Of different colors. Surprising the
muslin to be Of pale green, the bands
may be sky blue, tan, moss and
cerise, bands of copper color, old gold,
pink and crimson being woven round
cream or saffron centerS. Tinted as
well as white mousseline de sole are
also made up into crSyats with deep
frills of lace at the ends, India mus
lin being treated in the same way.
The greater novelty, however, is the
watered silk c%ravat, more often black
than colored, Hounced with eccu or
cream lace. Tcn-inch wide ribbon
without an edge, and sometimes piece

Russell, divides all feminine c%oifrures.
The knot on the nape Of the neck he
calls the domestic. The one dropped
further down the back is the roman

Those special State Warrants.

Gov. Stone, during his visit to Iuka
this week. had something to say con.
cerning the state warrant issue. As
our readers are doubtless aware the
legislature, under the constitution OF
1890, Is required to expend s923. 900
per annum upon public echo OILS. Last
year 1t became very evident. on ac-
count OF the great deficit and unexpec-
ted calls on the treasury, that the state
should issue warrants to the amount
OF 5000, 900 in face value of s., $40 and
I bearing per cent interest receivable
I for public debts and payable in Janua-
ry 1896. Accordingly the ST. Louis
Bank Note Company was employed to
offer designs and manufacture the war
rants. 1t was of course suppos ed that
the Bank No,e company would submit
nothing that is an infring ement on the
currency of the United States. and in
themind Of great many impartial ex
perts in such matters they have done
nothing of the kind. But to the mind
OF Gen. Hazen, chief OF the secret SER
vice, the warrants are an infringe
mont, and it is for this reason that he
has interfered. Strange to say, this
subordinate official Of the treasury de-
partment, Gen. Hazen. has served q
mandatory order upon the governor OF
a great commonwealth to stop him
from executing the laws made by its
legislature. Such action is without
reference on the part OF the Federal
government in the affairs Of sover-
eign state. Gov. Stone has, OF course,
refused to comply with the order. 1t
certainly is a ludicrous idea OF Gen.
Hazen to charge state with breach
OF the law against tcounterfeiting. Gov.
Stone thinks that il there is any imitn-
tion Of the currency OF the United
States to be found in the state war;
rants the St Louis Bank Note Compa-
ny is amenable for it There is no tell
ing what will come OF the entangle-
mont 1t may result in a legal contest
between the federal and State authori-
ties Whatever is done the people Of
OF Mississippi are with Gov. Stone
They have unbounded confidence In
his integrity and sound common sense
In the meantime the warrants win re-
for the payment oil public debts. Oul
people have this much faith in the
old time-tried doctrine OF n states
right to manage its own business with
out the impertinent interference ol
federal authority.
