CIew tC Source of Counterfeit HaIf-DOI-
lars Circulated tho Coast.


lars Circulate ed on tho Coast.
At last the United States secret serv-
ice authorities have struck lead to
the source from which have come the
thousands of almost perfect imitation
half dollars circulated throughout the
Pacific coast.
1t is believed the counterfeits, which
absolutely defy detection, except when
under a powerful nlagnifying glass in
the hands of clcve: expert, were made
by Chinese in their native land and
brought to this country last summer
by the members OF the troupe of Chi
nese actors who came to America to
perform AZ the Atlanta exposition. Al
most the entire troupe is now in San
Francisco, having been filling engage
ineDts in Chinatown theaters since re-
turning from the east.
1t Is estimated that $4,000 of the un-
authorized coins have been disposed
OF by the Chinese, and that Little
Pete the Chinanaan of recent race
tracls-Job nororiety, was back of the
scheme. However, the $4,000 realized
has not been clear profit, as the coun-
Ierfeits contain almost the same
amount CT pure silver as 90 the regular
iy llinted half-dollars, but the extreme
ly low price of silver bullion gave tine
oounterfeiters IL good profit.

The following words were given to be
