Chief Wiibic Interviews Clark and
Kerry nj AIeNnndrin.

ALEXANDRIA, March 4.-Chief Wilkie
and Mr.. Moran. of the Secret Service Bu-
reau of Washington. came here this morn
ing to look at James Barry and Richard L.
Clark the two men who were arrested last
night by officer James Hall on a Charge OF
circulating spurious silver dollars. The Sc
cret Service men first made an examination
of the spurious dollars and pronounced
them TO be a good imitation, but rather
light in weight They weigh about as much
as a half dollar. After the coin was ex-
amined the men were brought from their
cells and no one was allowed in the room
except the prisoners and the Secret Service
men.
The examination was quite a lengthy one.
lasting about an hour and a half. Ate;
the examination the cells occupied by the
prisoners were carefully examined with the
expectation of finding some of the bad
coin. but none was discovered. Neither of
the officials made any statement concerning
what the prisoners said. Clark was ex-
amined by Chief WillIie and Barry by Mr.
Moran. Barry today admitted having
thrown SO OF the queer money away last
night after his arrest. While the amount
of counterfets found on the men was very
small, the police are of the belief that they
had two confederates on the outskirts of
the city who had a satchel full of the
money and supplied them with it in small
quantities. II is also believed that the men
are mere tools, purchasing the coin from a
gang of counterfeiters and travelling to va
rious small cities circulating it in small
quantities and making good their escape
before being detected.
Policeman James Hall is today being
complimented on his capture, as in less
than half an hour after the report was
made at headquarters the men were behind
the bars. 1t is understood that the Secret
Service officials regard the capture of these
men as a very important one, as 1t will
possibly lead to the arrest OF a notorious
been giving the Secret Service authoriti s
no little amount of trouble.
Many curious citizens today called at po-
lice headquarters TO see the prls-
oners Edward Price and Bernard Cline
looked at Clark and both are confident that
Clark is the man who. about seven years
ago, was arrested in this city, charged with !
the burglary OF the grocery store of W. p. |

fenced TO term of four years in the State |

Influence of the Church.
1t is a fact, though but dinliy realized,
that the Americans have hardly begun TO
get the confidence of the people, either
Spanish or Filipino the Church could do
a great deal to instil confidence into the
minds of the people. Archbishop Chape-le.
though not an American BY Birth, is an
American in spirit. Nobody could be In
his presence for a minute without seeing
that. He is not new to this sor. of bust
ness. He has not only spenta great many
years among Latin peoples. taking their
languages, but he has already adjusted
delicate problems of a somewhat similar
character to what be Will find here in
Cuba and Porto Rico.
He can do more to inspire confidence in
the Americans among the people than any
one else. for he is OF their faith, and sent
hither by the Pope. They can see the
friendly relations which exist between him
and the American authorities. irrespective
of creed TO say nothing OF his cordial
social relations with individuals. 1t is also
safe TO say that there will be lessons in
religious tolerance inculcated. That has
hitherto been entirely lacking in the
Philippines, more so here than in any other
part Of the world at the present day. There
has not only been no religious liberation,
the words imply. Ii is to be doubted if the
people as whole had ever heard of any
other guise of Christianity except that
which was presented to them by the
Church in these islands, and since Protes
tan;ism has crept in, they have received,
from pulpit TO pulpit the dogma that it
should be either the Roman Catholic
Church or damnation.
In appearance Archbishop Chapeile is
Older than his years He is stout and grey
haired, with a pleasant face, which in
spires confidence, and an abrupt manner.
His eyes twinkle with humor. and his
manner indicates a man Of quick decision.
He was a great friend OF General Lawton,
who knew him when he was stationed in
New Mexico, and it was the intention OF
Mrs Lawton to give him reception at
her residence on his arrival. \ number
of American women in Manila. officers

United States grand jury.
Barry today made a statement, in which
he said that $50 in the bad money was
purchased from man in Baltimore. SIS be-
ing given for it, He says he could recog-
nize the man. Since their confinement the
prisoners have been more laxative than
when first arrested and their actions prove
that the superstition of the police. that they
are mere tools is probably correct.

Burglars Raid the strasburg Bank

The Massanutton Bank, at Stras-
burg, Va, was robbed last Friday
morning about l o'clock, and about
$1,000 was secured by the burglars,
An entrance was effected by a sksle-
ton key. The vault was forced with
levers and the safe wrecked by means
Of nitro-glycerine, which was inserted
around the side of the door, which
had been partially stopped with soap.
There were eight men in the gang,
most OF whom stood guard in various
sections of the town. They fired a
number Of pistol shots to draw atten-
ton from the bank. Several citizens
who looked out of their windows were
ordered to withdraw on threat of be-
ing shot. After wrecking the bank
the men collected and took a hand
car at the Southern depot and went
to Riverton, where all trace of them
was lost. The safe and vault are
wrecks and will require about $500
to replace. The bank is a member Of
the American Bankers Association
and carried burglar insurance to about
cover the loss. Negotiable paper and
securities amounting to $4,000 were
untouched.
The Fidelity and Casualty Company,

ner, of the agency, to Strasburg to
