Counterfeit rloney in Town.

1t has been discovered that coun-
terfeit money is being circulated in
this city. A spurious twenty-five cent
piece of the new pattern of 1895, has
been detected.
The coin bears the mark of the San
Francisco mint. 1t is of the new de-
sign, having the head of Liberty on
one side and an outspread eagle on
the other. The coin is so perfect in
appearance and weight as to defy de-
lection without testing.
The authorities are working on the
matter and endeavOring to trace the
origin of its circulation in this city.
1t is believed that a cOunterfeiter has
been here plying his nefariOus busi-

Big INCREASE In REVENUE

Under the New Schedule.

The outlines of the sugar schedule were
agreed upon yesterday by the Republican
members of the Ways and Means Commit

or the entire schedule. These two points
were that the duties on sugar should he

pounds of sugar testing nInety-six de-
grees, and concession of l2 1-2 cents
per 100 pounds under q reciprocity ar
rangement.
This will afford a considerably higher
average rate than the existing sugar
schedule and will add about $50, 900, 600
To the annual revenue The points wnich re-
main to be decided are the distribution of
the duty on sugar above and below ninety
six degrees, including the differential duty
ON refined sugar, and the countervailing
duty TO be levied upon sugar from bounty
paying countries. The duty on sugar be-
low ninety-six degrees will probably be q
fraction of a cent less FOR each degree,
according to the polariScopic test, down
to certain point, which will be made
the minimum duty. The differential duty,
which affords the protection To the Ameri-
can rcfiners, will be about the same as
under the existing law-one-eighth of a
cent per pound.
The reciprocity concession will consti-
tute IL 1-2 cents upon every hundred
pounds OF sugar testing Sc degrees, and
the same proportionate concession will
run through the schedule of sugars test
ing less number Of degrees. There will
probably be no couces sion greater than
this upon refined sugar. The present coun-
tervailing duty against sugar from bounty
