The Snyder County Counter
felterS.

The Middleburg Post of last week
says: News reached here on Satur-
day evening. that John Zimmerman,
who resides near Oriental had been
arrested by United States detectives
for making counterfeit money. He
had been suspected for some time,
and detectives watched him and he
was seen through the windows of his
house. He had dies for nearly all
values of coin, aud it appears he op-
Grated his work verv extensively.
After his arrest he was taken to
Pittsburg. it being an otfense against
Uncle Sans laws. While he resides
near Oriental. Juniata county, he was
within the Snyder county limits.
There are four or five othels in part
nership with Zimmerman. Wilson
F'orry beiug one of the accomplices
who was arrested.
Zimmerman is 3S years of age and
has been a crook the greater part OF
his life. He has frequently been ar
rested before. For eight years he
has been operating his counterfeitine
work. 1t required the detective two
years to catch him. The people liv
ing near his home, knew little OF
nothing of his work at counterfeit
ing and the arrest of Zimmerman
first brought his transgressions t.
their notice. The detective aver
that Zimmerman's money is neare
the genuine money than any he eve
saw made in hand factory.
The counterfeiter has figured in al
kinds Of escapades having broken on
Of Jail and the prnitentiary. Hi
services in these houses of dishono
were given him Mt various times as /.
penalty for stealing and breaking
safes open. He was keen fellow
and had possessed an ingenuou
mind which permitted him to carry o.
his operations so successfully. If h
simply glanced at a key, he could re

found his place of seclusion wher
he could make an exact duplicate
He had il his possession string c

From a decision of Judge White
of Pittsburg on the 4th inst, it ap-
pears the present fish law of Penn
sylvania does not provide punish.
mcnt for those charged with illegal
fishing. Three people charged by
the fish warden of this city with H.
legal fishing, were fined $50 each be
fore an alderman. An appeal was
taken and an indictment found
against them by the grand jury.
When the case came to trial on Mon
day, Attorney Thompson moved for
Q quashing of the indictments on the
grounds that no crime was charged;
that no fine or punishment was fixed
by law; that the information was not
in accord with the Indictment and
that the court had no jurisdiction.
Judge White granted the move to
quash, practically affirming all OF
Thompson's points.
