Aided from Outside = Perfect Spec1-
mems of the Coiner's Art.
Warden e. S. Wright of the Riverside
penitentiary 1T Pittsburg has discovered
that number Of the convicts confined in
the institution have been manufacturing
counterfeit 5O-cent pieces. He has I'M
earthed the metal from which the queer"
money was made, the molds in which 1t
was cast and the names of several con-,
victs who were connected with the mat
ter, but as yet he has been unable to ind
the man who originated and carried out
the scheme. The counterfeits are mag
nifcent specimens of the coiner's art. The
die from which they were made is almost
perfect, and the milling Of the coins,
which is the Governments chief protec-
ton of metal money from those who
would initiate it, is as near perfect as 1t
is possible for human ingenuity to make IL.
The counterfeiters had already secured
connection with outside parties and some
of the bad money is now in circulation.
Warden Wright has a list of nearly
score of convicts and other persons sup
posed to be connected with the counter
feiting, and when the full story of the
crime comes out it is said there will be
some sensational Developments.

the naval organizations. Exercises were
held in Old South Church. Gov. Wolcott
presided, and addresses We're given by the

and Mayor Quincy. Senator Henry Cab
OF Lodge was the orator Of the day. The
exercises were varied by the singing of
patriotic songs by several hundred school
children. In the evening the vessels of
the North Atlantic squadron and other
vessels in the harbor were Illuminated.
The celebration closed with a display of
fireworks in the North End Park.

Await Encland's Action.

Unless the British foreign office of it's
own motion presses the negotiations IN
connection with the arbitration treaty,
State Department officials in Washington
say the matter will rot again be taken up
by this Government. In the past three
months nothing has been done to eXpe-
dite matters. When Secretary Sherman
suggested to Sir Julian Pauncefote last
June this the President would be graft
fed to see the negotiation Of treaty OF
general arbitration during his admlnlstfa-
ton the latter expressed pleasure at the
information and entered upon discussion
of the subject, which, however, was Inn
tied to Generalities. Sir Julian then went
to London to consult with Lord Salisbury
on matters Of Importance and, acting I'M
der the instructions Of the State Depart
ment, Ambassador Hay consulted with
the British foreign Office on the subject.
Apparently the representations he made
were not as enthusiastically received as
were those of his predecessor. AS re-
suit the matter has languished, and now,
department officials declare, Great Britain
must be the one to revive the subject and
push it to a successful conclusion.
