GREEN GOODS MEN Ar ATLANTA.
Officers Trying Hard to Unearth
Their Plant.

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 20.-In James F. Kee-
ner. now in Fulton county Jail, the Unit
ed States officials think they have one Of
the shrewdest and most successful coun-
terfeiters in the country Keener Is
thought to be a member of a gang Of
spurious money manufacturers that has
been operating extensively throughout the
country. notably in Kansas City. Omaha,
Dallas, Memphis, Chicago and Atlanta.
1t is thought that the headquarters of
the band is, or was, in Omaha. The Off
GERS were certain that bogus 80 silver GER
tificates are being manufactured in At
lanta, and are making an effort to locate
the spurious money mill. The dollar sill
yer certificates are said to be the spec
ialty of this gang, and so nearly have
they succeeded in producing a perfect
likeness to a genuine so bill that it is
an extremely difficult matter to distn-
gu!sh the good money from the bad.
Keener is supposed to be a confederate of
Ford and Senter, the noted counterfeiters
who were convicted short time ago. He
protests Innocence declaring that his
only connection with the green goods was
to ship a box of It that had been left In
his place by an old friend named Dice, to
Kansas City. Dice, he says, gave him
the 800 that was found on his person when
he was arrested. The officers, however
are of the belief that the green goods are
being made somewhere in Atlanta and
are turning up the town to locate the
Dlant.
