WILKIE ON THEIR TRAIL
The Secret Service Chief After An

Accomplices of the Alleged Counter
feiter Relieved to BE In New York
How the Man Recently Arrested in
Baltimore Was Shadowed for
honths-His Syndicatc's Operations

NEW YORK, Feb. S.--Chief Wilkie, of
the United States Secret Service, is look
ing for gang of counterfeiters in this
city who were allied with the Canadian
gang, headed by Anthony Decker, recent
ly arrested in Baltimore. The gang in this
city, it is said, printed one issue OF coun-
terfeits for Decker and his pals in Canada
Decker, when arrested, was preparing
grand coup. He intended to print in one
week a quarter of million of S. bank
notes. counterfeited to resemble those is
sued by Nelson's Bank. Of Montreal He
had for years been an expert stone en-
graver, and for seventeen years worked
for the Burland LithOgraphic Company.

stamp work for the Canadian Government.
He was one of a syndicate who flooded the
country with counterfeit 81 bills, but he
had decided TO start for himself with the
aid Of his twenty year-old son, his
wife, and probably one other man.
Lieutenant Colonel Sherwood, the Com
missioner of the Dominion Police in Otta-
wa. assisted by Superintendent McCaskill.
of the Canadian Secret Service
learned that Decker was mixed up with
the issue Of 81 counterfeits From that
time Decker and his crowd were never lost
sight of. His former associates were TO be
allowed to pass the issue of new counter
feits as soon as it was ready
Decker broke however with his former
printers who lived in this city in Bleecker
Street. Decker concluded to leave Montre-
al last May. Finally he decided to settle
in London. Ontario. Colonel Sherwood de-
cided to take his chances on catching him
and his partners in the act of printing the
new issue of bills so the shadow was kept
up and old Decker went on with his work.
To provide for his escape. if detected.
he rented another house which stood back
TO back with the first one he leased. He
was known in London as Mr. Ross. a civil
engineer. and was considered a superior
citizen.
Finally in the first week In December.
things were ready to start work on the is
sue, and, one day. Colonel Sherwood and
Superintendent McCaskeI were ready to
arrest Decker and his helper. Hans Kuntz.

some specimens of prints of the backs of !
the dollar bills. What Kuntz took is

THAT CONVENTION FUND
The Difficulty in Obtaining Money in

The sum of 100000. Guaranteed
ny W. :. p. ShieIds. Not Yet Wis
ibIe-The Mayor Vow to Take Part
in the Effort to Secure the Neces-
sary Amount for the Committee.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. S-There are so
many conflicting stories about the 100000
pledged TO the Republican National Com
mittee by one or more citizens Of Philadel-
phia in return for the Republican National
Convention that il is not surprising that
local business men are slow in responding
10 Mayor Ashbridge's appeal
The Philadelphians who went TO Wash
ington 70 secure the convention were
amazed when they were told upon their
arrival that the Republican National Com
mittee would insist on a gift Of S1g00 in
return for the convention prize.
When asked 70 what use this big fund
was TO be applied they were told the
National Committee was S55.a0o 10 debt,
$4,000 would be needed 20 tefray cam
paign expenses Of the National Commit
tee and the remaining Sze001 would be
used in fitting up the Convention Hall.
This demand for pledge Of Si0a 600
threw the Philadelphia committee into
panic
W s ?. Shields. who was a leading
member Of the Philadelphia committee,
was prevailed upon 70 accept the resp0n-
sibility. \ leading member OF the National
Committee telegraphed to a friend in
Philadelphia asking whether Mr Shields
was worth $l00 000- An affirmative answer
followed. and Philadelphia obtained the
convention.
When the Citizens Association began
preparing for the convention jealOIsieS
arose, and leading citizens who had lent
their names TO the enterprise withdrew.
Chairman Hanna, Joseph Fl. M5nlsy. ani
other members Of the National Committee,
came to Philadelphia and found convention
arrangements in a deplOrabie condition
When Mr.. Hanna left the city the OTy
was given out that he had taken with him
$25. 900 in cash. the first inst3llment Of the
convention fund.
Nh. Hanna wanted the money. but did
not get a cent. Then the report was cir
culated that the National Convent on in
sisted that he should receive So 600 in
thirty days for the dissemination of Re
publican campaign literature in the eWst.
This inCensed Democrats who had intend
ed to contribute to the convention fund.
and all prospects for money from that
quarter we're cut on.
BY the merging of the old and new citf-
Zens' associations the Shields men Will
score a signal victory. They will go on
making arrangements for the convention,
while the mayors new finance committee
will have 10 raise the 100000 fund. The
fear is expressed that the new Organiza-
tiOn, of which the mayor is the head, viii
strike the same snag.

view evidently convinced the eOugrega~

the matter TO the ConsistOry with rower.
