The so" counterfeit silver dollar is
causing business circles and even the
government no end of worry. Recently
these spurious COINS have been c%ircula-
ting very freely IN Denver. The coun-
terfeits are such remarkably close imi-
tatlOns of the genuine coin that it is al
most impossible to detect them, and
even government experts are frequently
at a loss to choose between the false and
tho true. 1t is thought that there are
vast numbers OF them in circulation. At
the mint it is stated that the situation is
SO serious that the treasury has made it
the subject OF a communication to con-
gress, regarding the propriety of a new
device for the coin. 1t is estimated thi {

that time over 81. 900 changed hands on the
result of the games However. betting is

shows how much interest was manifested

MORTGAGE SET ASIDE
Mr.. Seekamp Finds One Sc
cured by Forgery.
CROSS GOT THE MONEY
NotariaI Seal and Deed Both
Said to Be ForgerieS.
CROSS GOT THE MONEY

On last Wednesday a Mr.. Seekamp,
about five miles east of Mulvane, came 70
this city to get an abstract of his prop
erty, with a view TO selling II. When he
spoke TO Register of DEEDS Canadian ne
was dumtounded when he was told that
there was a mortgage on his place Of
$3.50. Mr.. Seekamp tod Mr.. Canadian
that he had never put mortgage on his
farm. However the records show that
on the 14th day of last June mortgage
for that amount had been duly recorded.
Mr.. SekaInp then began an tnvesuga-
ton. He learned that the loan had been
made by Mr.. e. D. Kimball of this city
to man by the name of Cross. II seems
that this man Cross. whoever he may be,
had forged deed TO the property, had
the necessary papers sworn TO before a
notary at FL Dorado, where he claimed
he lived, had received the money and has
left for parts unknown. Yesterday Mr..
Seekamp had his lawyers draw up the
legal papers asking Judge Dale to set
aside the mortgage, ON the grounds that
it was a forgery. There is no question
but what it was a bogus deed which the
man Cross had. Mr.. Harry Stewart, of
the Dean Abstract company, says II is
without doubt a forgery
Some of those interested in the case say
that they do not believe there ever was
any such a man as Cross; that the no
tarial SEAL as weA as the deed, is a for
gerry. While some say that 1t may have
been fixed up in Kansas City or Chicago
by sharpers, Others are of the opinion that
there are some people in Wichita who
may know more about the matter than
they care to express In other words, the
deal may have been framed right here in
Wichita. However that may be, who
ever did the crime have had ample time
to make their getaway had they so
desired AS it is, I'M. Kimbal is out s., 26O

Of the detectives and IT will depend largely
on their shrewdness whether the party or
parties are caught or not. II is hardly
probably that the money Will ever be re-
