the clause as affording pretext for cur

C0UNTERFEITERS CAPTURED.
\ TROUBLESOME GANG APPRE-
HENDED AT DETROIT.

Charles, Edward and David Johnson
Said 10 Have Operated for Years.
Arrested Friday and Saturday for
Passing Spurious Qunrtcrs--Secret
Service Men Claim Their Opera
tiOns Date Back to 1862, ana
Think They Have "a Clear Case
Against the Older of the brothers.
Issues They Have Successfully Inn
itated.
Washington, Aug. 14.-Information has
been received by Chief Wlkie of the treas
ury secret service of the arrest, Friday
and Saturday. at Detroit, Mich. of a gang
of counterfeiters, whose operations have
given the government considerable trou-
BILE.
They are Charles, Edward and David
Johnson, with headquarters at 795 Twen-
ty-siXth street. from which, through the
efforts of Secret Service Operative Webb
the department has secured some OF the
important paraphernala used by the men,
Charles and Edward were arrested On
Friday on the charge of passing counter
felt quarters, and this was followed up
yesterday by the arrest Of David and a
search of the premises, where the coun-
terfeters outfit was secured.
Chief Wilkie regards the arrest as a
most important one, as he Identifies the
men with the issues of the Hancock and
Window 81 counterfeits, which have been
circulated freely in the West and also
In the East during the last eight years.
AT the headquarters of the gang the Of
icials recovered the face and back plates
from which the Hancock counterfeit was
made, and also the plates for making the
large and small seals on these bills. There
were also taken fifty 50 Hancock and 500
81 Window bills, the latter being regarded
as the best all around counterfeit which
made its appearance up to the discovery
of the 800 silver certificate in the spring
of last year.
The men treated these notes with glyc-
crime before they were put out, which
gave them the appearance of having been
In use for some time, and made their de-
lection almost an imposslblity.
The Hancock 50 counterfeit appeared
East. The discovery of It caused the gov
ernment to recall the issue and replaced il
with the Window note of similar denomi-
nation in December. 1890. A counterfeit
of this issue was discovered in 1894, and
its appearance is chargeable to the gang
which has just been apprehended. The
bureau officials at Detroit hope to secure
the plates from which the note is printed.
Charles Johnson, who Is said to be at
the head Of the gang, is about 63 years OF
age, and, according to the statements OF
the secret service officials here, has spent
considerable time In prison for counter
feiting.
The officials connect the johnson family,
one of the brothers of which, Thomas r.,
Is dead, with the issue OF a number OF
counterfeits that have appeared from time
to time, including the s. Jackson legal
tender, the $40 legal tender of 1862, and
the So Grant silver certificate In 1888 be-
sides the counterfeit of some issues OF
Canadian notes The officials believe they
have a clear case against the older broth
er and strong suspicious regarding the
guilt of the younger ones.

City of Mexico.
City of Mexico, Aug. H.-sldney La
sceles, better known as Lord Beresford.
whose tactics made him so
fungus throughout Georgia, is In Mexico
city, where he has been engaged in sim
liar games to those praeticed throughout
the South.
Early in December Of last year Beres-
ford made his appearance In Mexico City.
He adopted the name of Robert Turn
bull Of New York" lie was accompan-
led by his wife.
Immediately on his arrival he took
apartments at Mexico's swell hotel, the
SAM, where he was housed as prince.
lie had a few letters of introduction to
wealthy people and was introduced at the
Jockey and American clubs. He began
gambling heavily at baccarat, the favor
tie game and lost IS, 900 in one night. He
tlmn commenced to make drafts on New
YWfk banks. His suave manner. good
bearing and reputation for paying bills
promptly coupled with ingenious explana-
tions, made II an easy matter to get drafts
cashed Among those who took the drafts
were several prominent people, including
Joseph Hampson, president of the MexI-
co, Cuernavaca and Pacific Railroad;
William j. Crittenden, Jr, son Of the
United states minister 10 MeAlCOs SHo
American Security Bank; Parker Ser
combe, manager Of the American Bank.
and a number of prominent Mexicans.
Several days before the drafts became
due, It is said, Beresford called on some
OF the parties and told them that the
drafts were not good.
Shortly after this letters reached his
wife, addressed Mrs. Sidney Lascelles,'
which made people suspicious that Turn
bull was sailing under false colors.
Three or four weeks ago Turnbull and
wife had an interview with the American
consul In which they desired to have some
papers witnessed before him. The exact
nature of these papers is not known, as
Consul Barlow is absent from the city.
These papers were made out In the name
of Mrs Sidney Lasceles, and they were
signed by Doth Turnbull and wife as Sid
ney Lascelles and Mrs. Sidney Lascelles.
The fact of these papers being signed
was made 10 creditors, and one of them
casually mentioned the name to a Georgia
man. The name was instantly recognized
as connected with Beresford, and Turn
bull was accused Of being the man. He
practically acknowledged his identity.
