WASHINGTON. April 10.-DeteCtiVes
Freburger and Reilly of Baltimore We're
at the treasury department today and
reported to Chief Hazen Of the secret
service the arrest of a man and woman
in Baltimore last night on a charge Of
mutilating gold coin by lightning. From
their description Chief Hazen recognized
James /. Wilcox and wife. whom the
secret service officers have been in search
of for some months. They are members
of a gang which has been operating eX-
tensively in Chicago and to some extent
in Denver, Omaha, Sioux City and st
Louis Their speciality was sweating so
gold pieces, and so successful have they
been that it is estimated that from $780,
600 to $4,000 in gold coin has been arts
tically shaved, remilled and passed again
into circulation. The leader Of the gang,
W. F. Shaw. is still at large.
Those under arrest are A. b. Peck. a
dentist; Mr.. and Mrs. J. l. Wilcox and
Ralph Wilcox, a brother Of J. L. Wilcox.
Shaw and Wilcox ostensibly conducted
a real estate business in Chicago. nut
Wilcox, who is an expert machinist,
spent his time in a room on Adams-st.
trimming gold coins by means of a
large lathe. Shaw opened an account
at several banks. where he deposited
quite large sums of money. and they
drew it out in gold at the rate of from
5000 to 500 a day. Each morning he
would deposit sufficient paper money to
keep his account even. The teller of
one Of the banks became suspicious. and
the secret service officers was called in.
with the result that two of the gang
were at once arrested. In Baltimore Mr..
and Mrs. Wilcox operated extensively,
and there is reason to believe that n
very large amount of the short weight
coin was successfully disposed Of The
officers last night secured about 5000 Of
it, and about $500 in filings. Chicago
officers are expected to arrive in Balti-
more within a day or two 10 identify the
prisoners. There seems to be no doubt
of their identity, however, as Wilcox s
full name was found on his coat.

TAKEN DOWN A PEG,
A New York Man ..Shut Up, by AttOr-
ney-GeneraI Smith.

The lobby Of the Bates house was the
theater of an exciting scene Thursday
morning, which resulted in a stampede
of the guests Acknowledgement Smith
entered the lobby and stood at the cigar
stand for few moments when he was
attracted by a political discussion be
tween two men near by. One Of them,
a man weighing about two hundred and
twenty-five pounds, was abusing Sena-
tor Voorhees, and eulogizing Senator Hin
and from the conversation the attorney
general inferred that both of the
strangers We're from New York. The
burly, talkative stranger launched off
into a TRADE Of abuse Of voorhees,, call
ing the Indiana senator a scoundrel, a
demagogue and a man Of neither brains
nor reputation, and adding: 'To think Of
such a man as Dan Voorhees, abusing
Hill; man who has no reputation eX-
cept as a BLACKBOARD. a scoundrel a
demagogue-''
stop right there" interposed At
torney-General Smith. 81 am a friend
of Senator Voorhees, and not a word that
you utter is true. No man of any cour-
age would talk about another behind
his back as you are doing about him.
I am his friend aud am here to protect
him.
4 was not talking to you" said the
stranger.
But 7 am talking to YOU said
Smith, land l want to repeat that you
are coward or you would not talk of
a man behind his back as you have
about Voorhees,"
IT understand that he can't get credit
for cents in Terre Haute, where he
lives" said the stranger.
THAT is d lie" responded Smith, land
you lie when you repeat such silly
SANDER
4 don't want TO have anything To %
with you" said the New Yorker as le
started TO walk away.
Nor do 1 want to have anything To
do with you" replied Smith as he fol-
lowed him up. but / want TO say that
you are a great big coward and that
every statement you make about NOOr-
hees is false and you lie knowingly when
you make them"
With this the stranger disappeared out
the door and the encouragement went
back to the cigar-stand, lit his cigar and
left the lobby. The New Yorker was J.
Decker. jr., a travelling salesman for a
New York upholstery and lace curtain
firm. Persons about the lobby say that
ne had been forcing his discussions on
everyone that entered and that he was
always very abusive The encounter
with the encouragement, however, had
a very pacifying effect and j. Decker, jr..
sat around the lobby the balance of the
day looking as if he had very little, if
any, interest in the politics Of the coun-
try.
